Only question is: when the hell am I supposed to play this, this year's absolutely packed with great games.
Good problem to have, right there with you. Bangers left and right!
Care to name some? I’m so out of the loop but I love a good game… I usually only dust off my gaming rig for a new FarCry instalment 😬
For me it would be: Zelda Tears of the Kingdom, Remnant 2, Return to Moria, Starfield, this game, Pseudoregalia(10/10), Crab Champions.
Thanks! Not gonna lie, “Crab Champions” jumped out the most in that list but I’ll check out the trailers for all 😜 🦀 💪
Well all the other roguelikes I play aren't from the past year so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Baldur's Gate III just came out and it's an absolutely phenomenal RPG
Octopath Traveler II is also a really great RPG
Zelda Tears of the Kingdom came out earlier this year, which was also amazing, though obviously that's (officially) only on Switch
Final Fantasy XVI was super fun, but that one is a PlayStation 5 exclusive
Then there is Starfield, the big new Bethesda game is space
A new Yakuza (though the series is being renamed to "like a dragon" now) game is coming out later this year as well (it's a very storied game series though, if you're not familiar with it, I'd suggest starting with either Yakuza 0 or Judgment)
Early this year there was actually another Like a Dragon game, Like a Dragon: Ishin, which is also great
A new Assassin's Creed comes out soon as well, which is going back to a more traditional gameplay loop (recent entries were RPG-like, and this is going to be more stealth focused again like AC1-Unity)
Armored Core 6 is supposedly also a really good game where you build your mech to fight big enemies (though I personally don't know much about that game)
Hi-Fi Rush was a really really good game, it's a sort of rhythm adventure game where you have to fight in the beat of the music.
Ubisoft is also releasing their Avatar (blue Aliens, not the air bender) game late this year (December if I'm not mistaken), which should scratch your FarCry itch, I'd say.
I'm sure there are more that I either forgot or aren't necessarily my wheelhouse, but those are the big ones
Awesome rundown — thank you 🙏 I enjoyed the only Assassin’s Creed I played (Egypt one) so a new one coming out is exciting! The Bulder’s Gate game definitely sounds like a hit though I’ve not played many RPGs in the past. Might also check out that rhythm game — sounds like a novel idea for a game, which is always refreshing.
Thanks again!
