I think the second half of 2023 (well more like Q4/september) is gonna be amazing for game releases. Games like Payday 3, Cities Skylines 2, Starfield. Any other I missed that you’re excited for?
Pikmin 4
Super Mario Bros. Wonder
SUPER MARIO RPG BABY
Super Mario RPG is the thing that may make me dust off the switch this year after TOTK but I dunno. I wanted it for all these years and now I can"t escape the thought that it’s still kinda creatively bankrupt
Forza Motorsport. Namco’s never making a new Ridge Racer, so that’ll have to do for a while again
Can’t forget homeworld 3!
Edit: I was late to the party, hw3 got pushed to 2024. So I’ll change my answer to the expense game, which comes in July.
Also, hard agree on star field, and CS2!
Edit2: armored core 6
I was gutted when HW3 was pushed to next year, I was so looking forward to playing it this summer.
Same, at the time I made the comment I didn’t even realize they had pushed it back. Cut it a little close to release didn’t they?
Armored Core 6 and Remnant 2! A lot of games like Hades 2 and Hollow Knight silksong don’t have release dates so… Maybe this year?
I feel like 2023 needs to be written off for games. Yeah we’re getting Starfield but that’s about all the “AAA” games I feel.
I think this is a lagged effect due to COVID. I think it won’t be until second half of 2024 or 2025 till we start seeing regular AAA game releases again.
This whole year has been amazing for games and second half has way more in store. 2023 def a great year for gaming
