Cities: Skylines II. But I am very cautious. All the recent games I looked forward to were disappointing.

Super excited for Starfield just hoping Bethesda can deliver. I was super excited for Cyberpunk back before it launched and that obviously didn't go over too well.
Seems like a safe bet on PC. If Bethesda doesn’t fix any broken parts, the mod community usual does.
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
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!
I'm definitely cautiously optimistic for starfield, but I don't want to get my hopes up too high.
In general I'm excited by how many unknown but potentially interesting games that will come to the game pass. There were a couple of games that looked interesting in the xbox showcase but that I probably wouldn't want to pay for, but if they are in the game pass I'll definitely try them.
Not many for me as I've been off gaming for a while.
Star Trek Infinite.
Gord.
Manor Lords.
Manor Lords looks soooo good
The demo was great fun.
Ever since I watched the presentation about Starfield, I've been absolutely eager to see if it's really as good as it comes across in the presentation. I am a long-time Assassins Creed player and of course I am looking forward to the new Assassins Creed. I hope that the story has a bit more content again and above all that everything is more historical and less magical. But I'm actually looking forward to the Phantom Liberty DLC for Cyberpunk 2077 the most. Despite all the justified criticism of Cyberpunk 2077, the game captivated me immensely and I had a lot of fun playing it.
Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty
Which unfortunately gets released shortly after Starfield. I need to clone myself.
Seriously hyped for RoboCop Rogue City.
Hades II.
Same, I got back into Hades recently because I just can't wait for this.
I totally forgot this was announced and now I can't wait
I don't think I could give an answer I wouldn't walk back on later, I'm just happy to see such an interesting and competitive year for the industry. Really hope this trend continues.
Assassins Creed! Love the series
I haven't played some of the recent games, but I liked the old format and look forward to Mirage's take on it.
Silksong is coming out some day, probably.
Surely this year... Surely.

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.
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.
Path of exile 2 if it comes out this year. As well as life by you to finally give a sims competitor.
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.
I'm waiting for
- Cyberpunk 2077 DLC
- Starfield
- Cities Skylines 2
- Kerbal Space Program 2 (1.0 release)
But before that I need to buy a new computer. Mine's too weak.
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.
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 🤩
Last update December 2021 makes me sad. I hope he has more updates soon!
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.
Number 1 for me are the Duke Nukem Collections for Evercade coming in November.
I played tons of duke3d as a kid so I'm excited to revisit it. But even more, I never got a chance to play the original DOS side-scrollers, so I'm pumped to get the new remastered versions. Even cooler that they're the first Evercade exclusives.
I never played duke3d but I grew up playing the side scrollers. I didn't know they were remastering those. Never heard of the Evercade and unfortunately another handheld isn't for me.
However the VS looks like something I could install into my cars headunit along with my Roku for when I'm just chilling, and less maint. than my raspberry. Thanks for this post. I have something to look into here.
I'm a big fan of Evercade. "Plug and play" is a big part of their philosophy, there is definitely less messing around with the VS than there would be for a Pi or any other RetroArch thing one might create themselves.
If you're okay with using Discord, I'd recommend dropping into the Evercade Discord if you have any questions or just wanna hang out - lots of friendly and knowledgeable folks (about Evercade specifically, or retro games in general), regular high score competitions, and it's just a good vibe. You can find the link in the Evercade website if you're curious.
I'm really hyped for Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2 really liked the first one and hope the second is just as good or maybe better.
Super excited for Elden Ring and Cyberpunk DLC
Life by You
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
FF XVI, Starfield, Spider-Man 2 and Hellblade II are on my "most hyped for" list.
I haven't played the demo for FF XVI yet and I'm trying to keep away from spoilers and media until release day
Armored Core 6 is the only thing on my mind.
Starfield and Armored Core VI in that order.
Been playing Skyrim for way to long and really hoping for a new game to scratch that itch.
I'm hyped for Starfield. Let's hope it's not another fallout 76. I'm waiting for some gameplay reviews before buying.
I really want to try armored core.
Corepunk https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=d2eSk5Etz7M
It was announced several years ago. The development team was based in Ukraine. Since the military conflict started, production has drastically slowed. Most of the devs migrated to Greece. Been getting updates, but sporadically.
I am still holding hope for its release. From everything I have read/heard about the game, I believe the developers are trying to make sure they release a quality product, therefore part of the "slow to release" aspect.
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.
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)
Baldur's Gate 3 that's (finally) coming out of EA in August.
Oh man there's a lot of games I'm looking forward to lol... Probably half of my Steam wishlist are just upcoming or Early Access games
Some of them include
- Baldur's Gate 3
- Cities Skylines 2
- Frostpunk 2
- Anvil Empires
- Elysian Eclipse
- Like a Dragon 8
- Stormgate
- Life by You
- Avowed
- Manor Lords
Cautiously optimistic about Starfield as well
