Hades II.

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.

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.

Silksong is coming out some day, probably.

Baldur's Gate 3 that's (finally) coming out of EA in August.

Can't wait for Manor Lords.

Well I can wait because I think it'll be great after the demo.

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

Assassins Creed! Love the series

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.

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.

Super excited for Elden Ring and Cyberpunk DLC

Path of exile 2 if it comes out this year. As well as life by you to finally give a sims competitor.

I'm waiting for

• Cyberpunk 2077 DLC
• Cities Skylines 2
• Kerbal Space Program 2 (1.0 release)

But before that I need to buy a new computer. Mine's too weak.

Armored Core 6 is the only thing on my mind.

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.

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 looking forward to Stalker 2, if it happens to come out this year. Completely understandable if it doesn't.

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.

No one has mentioned them here yet, but I'm really excited for Payday 3 to come out. Especially with how well they've supported Payday 2 throughout the years. I'm also hoping they bring back Overdrill so I can go for it this time around.

On a more indie scale, I've been waiting for Bomb Rush Cyberfunk to release since I finished playing Jet Set Radio Future.

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

Life by You

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

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.

Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty

Which unfortunately gets released shortly after Starfield. I need to clone myself.

Not many for me as I've been off gaming for a while.

Star Trek Infinite.

Gord.

Manor Lords.

I'm excited for Homeworld 3

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.

Seriously hyped for RoboCop Rogue City.
