In the year gone by, we witnessed the emergence of what might be remembered as one of the most influential games ever created: Elden Ring. Yet, 2022 had much more in store for avid gamers. PlayStation enthusiasts were treated to the sequels of two beloved titles, Horizon Zero Dawn and God of War, with the releases of Horizon Forbidden West and God of War Ragnarok. On the Nintendo Switch, owners had the pleasure of diving into a plethora of exciting games, including Splatoon 3, Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Bayonetta 3, and Pokemon Legends: Arceus. Meanwhile, Xbox fans experienced a quieter year, although Microsoft did continue to expand its Game Pass offerings.
As we venture into 2023, there’s already an impressive lineup of games with confirmed release dates that promise to captivate gaming enthusiasts. This year, we anticipate the arrival of new titles from iconic franchises such as Final Fantasy 16, Diablo 4, and Street Fighter 6, all set to launch in the month of June. Additionally, Harry Potter aficionados have something special to look forward to with Hogwarts Legacy, while Nintendo Switch devotees can finally rejoice as the sequel to Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom, makes its debut.
