Crazy year just only for the first half, it's gonna be hard for me to squeeze that much of play time 2023.
 
Zelda, RE4make, and FFXVI in the first half… backlog am cry with all the time I’m going to spend on these. And Fire Emblem: Engage which isn’t on the list but due out in January. And 2nd half won’t be a lot better with Silksong, FFVII Rebirth, and who knows what else at this point.

Sea of Stars, Metroid Prime, Advance Wars remake, and who knows what else is announced. Not including those surprise hits, it’s already a super packed year.

Bold one is the one that I would purchase, my wallet will be hurting really bad...
 
I pre-ordered this week:
  • Fire Emblem Engage
  • Wanted: Dead
  • Octopath Traveler 2
Throw in whatever is on Gamepass. Notably Wo Long in March, Atomic Heart in Feb.

Diablo IV and Resident Evil 4 I am definitely getting, but not sure if I need them right at launch. Then Zelda is a day 1 in May. Buying whatever collector's edition they put out as soon as it's available. Street Fighter 6 I will get on a deep, deep sale or after they start with the re-releases. Jedi Survivor waiting for a sale or GP.

do not tempt fate do not contrain Wonder Woman's thighs do not do not
That is a mad first half of the year.

I officially dont have enough time to get through all the games I want to get through.
Im gonna have to do some hard hustle to get through just that list.
Im probably gonna have to abandon Atomic Heart and Sons of the forest.
I really want to go through Company of Heroes 3 but I dont know if ive got time for RTS games anymore either.

thinks Halo Infinite is a new graphical benchmark
Consoles have 4 year stretches of AAA games than they flirt with new consoles, Zelda botw 2 will be switch at its peak.

From that list, the games that I am interested in are the following, and the only limiting factor for me is time or the lack of it. :messenger_grinning:


Hogwarts Legacy
Forspoken
Street Fighter 6
Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty
Resident Evil 4 Remake
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League
Final Fantasy XVI
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

A remake should never be on a list like this. OP, delete #14 and replace it with Minecraft Legends immediately!!

Didn't know rock steady was doing that suicide squad game. Definitely on my radar along with atomic heart and a few others.

Its becoming increasingly hard to justify buying any new games while being subbed to ps+ and having a decently sized backlog of games with not nearly enough time to play.

List is great and there's even more great games that aren't on the list (Octopath 2 and Silksong). 2023 shaping up really really well.

I had no idea that Company of Heroes was coming to console?! Nice to get both this and Age of Empires on console after so many years.

These are the games I'm really anticipating...I'm assuming all of these are first half of the year releases:

Starfield
Forza
Jedi Survivor
Hogwarts
Avatar
Diablo
Zelda
Age of Empires
Redfall
Fire Emblem

Taking a wait and see approach for Forspoken

So strap in and let's find out what's in store for us in 2023!

Was thinking of devoting my free time to minimise the ridiculously long movie backlog (I will start with Arrow's Shawscope: Volume Two boxset) but who am I kidding. Let's see what drops on GP this month and will probably grab Dead Space.

2023 is looking absolutely packed, and though you can never rule out the possibility of further delays, as things stand right now, it looks like the next 12 months are going to see a whole bevy of major, exciting new releases. Here, we're going to take a look at a bunch that have piqued our interest.

For the purposes of this feature, we're only looking at games that have confirmed 2023 release dates or windows. Also keep in mind that this isn't an exhaustive list by any means, so if you notice any omissions, let us know via your comments.
 
Lol, they already assuming that Starfield gets delayed.

And props to them for including Sons of the Forest.

Edit: Ah, only games with exact release dates are included.
