Hades II.
I totally forgot this was announced and now I can’t wait
Same, I got back into Hades recently because I just can’t wait for this.
Haunted Chocolatier for me… The same guy who made Stardew Valley is making a new game. I look forward to it more than I am looking forward to Starfield.
Last update December 2021 makes me sad. I hope he has more updates soon!
He does more updates on twitter @ConcernedApe but it’s still sporadic. Last update was in April and he said he’s taking a break from Haunted Chocolatier to work on the new SDV update.
I just recently got into Stardew Valley so this had not passed my radar yet, looks really promising from the early gameplay video!
Seems to be a more “active” game while retaining a lot of the charm, which I’m all for 🤩
Armored core 6! I’ve been waiting ages for a new installment. I’m so hyped for it that I took some vacation days for it.
That’s definitely my biggest one
Oh man that recent gameplay footage that came out looked 10/10. I haven’t been this excited for a new ip in awhile
As someone who played the first one back in the original Playstation, I’m beyond excited to get back into it. The trailers and gameplay details that came out recently are a huge part of that, too.
Silksong is coming out some day, probably.
Surely this year… Surely.
City Skylines 2! The trailer looked good and they are including more in the base then CS1, plus it seems they have responded to some feedback on cars and including parking for the amount in the game
I knew I was forgetting something important in the post, thanks for reminding me that we have a release date for it!
Path of exile 2 if it comes out this year. As well as life by you to finally give a sims competitor.
Can’t wait for Manor Lords.
Well I can wait because I think it’ll be great after the demo.
I’m so excited for Manor Lords. Looks like the type of medieval game I’ve been wanting for a long time.
Armored Core 6 is the only thing on my mind.
Baldur’s Gate 3 that’s (finally) coming out of EA in Auguste.
The new Hellblade and the Cyberpunk DLC most of all. Talos Principle will be interesting at well even though I didn’t finish the first one, something got in the way
Great list. And the first Talos principle was great (DLC less so). Also the ending had a great build up to the end, but the actual end cutscene was a little meh.
Talos principle 2. The first one was amazing. It’s also kind of funny to me that croteam pretty much only made boomer shooters, and then threw out one of the most philosophical puzzle games I’ve ever played. It’s like if after the transformer movies, Michael Bay decided to make 2001 a space odyssey, and then went back to making mindless transformers movies.
Baldur’s Gate 1 & 2 were ones that I always enjoyed trying to play when I was younger, but never seemed to be able to survive for more than a few minutes. So I’d give up in frustration. Maybe I should give them another go before 3 comes out.
You can get both of them for your phone for a few bucks as well. That’s how I played them for the first time and had a blast.
Dare I say Silksong? The first game was perfect in so many ways, I’m really excited to see in what ways the improve and build on it.
Silksong? There’s no such thing as a game coming out called that. It doesn’t exist. It is, and always has been, a figment of your imagination. There has never been a studio called Team Cherry. It’s all lies.
Yes! I cannot wait. I hope we get difficulty settings this time, but if not I’ll just have my SO get me out of any sticky situations like he did for Hollow Knight lol (like that one grub in queen’s guarden… omg so much spiky death)
I’m looking forward to Stalker 2, if it happens to come out this year. Completely understandable if it doesn’t.
Just played the demo of FF16 and yep, I’m sold. Can’t wait for next week now!
Excited to get to BG3 at some point too. I love the bioware games and people speak very highly of Larian.
