What Games Are You Looking Forward To In 2021?

Rebel Galaxy Outlaw on Steam.

Sorry, the thread you were looking for was here:

What Games Are you Looking Forward to in 2020? [Thread not yet Created].

Ahem…

Looking forward to Everspace 2. And a few other games that were announced for 2021 recently.

I’ve got a feeling we were being too optimistic with Starfield for 2021. I think that one might be 2022.

I will wait as long as it takes for Starfield. I have a deep need for galactic adventure and/or sci-fi exploration and discovery and for some reason nobody seems to be willing to deliver these days.

You can count on Bethesda to deliver the goods.

Time for a proper update. :)

My wants:
Dying Light 2 (zero news on a confirmed 2020 date, so lets go with 2021)
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2
In the Valley of the Gods
The Settlers
Hitman 3
Far Cry 6
Humankind
The Gunk
GhostWire: Tokyo
Resident Evil: Village
The Medium
Warhammer 40,000: Darktide
Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong
Horizon Forbidden West
Shadow Warrior 3
Aquanox Deep Descent
STALKER 2
Avowed
State of Decay 3
As Dusk Falls
Witchfire

I think Valley of the Gods might have been shelved?

… and Watch Dogs Legion.

I thought WD:Legion was a November 2020 release?

Well look at that. You’re right. Oct 29th :)

So Valhalla, this and Cyberpunk all hit at the same time :( Need to replan my year…

How did I not hear of this? So we have Swansong and Bloodlines 2 this year?

Right now I can’t think of any major games I’m waiting for. I do look forward to DOOM Eternal DLC and Age of Wonders: Planetfall expansion content, but for all I know all that stuff will arrive this year. Right now none of the 2021 stuff has grabbed me, but game reviews and impressions will certainly sway me the closer we get to release.

Horizon Forbidden West is my number one with a bullet. Demon’s Souls remake, if it doesn’t make this year.

The first good joke of the year!

Maybe Early Access in 2024.

And a repeat. Check out your original post in this thread.

Those guys have worked over 2 years and all they have is a CGI target render. Maybe make it 2026.

Bannerlord beat the prediction! At least in Early Access.

Looks like I was probably too optimistic with regards to Beyond Good and Evil 2. We’ll see. And Cyberpunk 2077 might beat 2021 by a couple of months. And Final Fantasy 7 Remake cheated by only being the midgard portion of the original game, so I’m not sure if that qualifies as beating the 2021 prediction. And System Shock 3 looks like it’s not going to happen, sadly. I still hope Starfield can make it out in 2021 though.

Distant Worlds 2
Everspace 2

I’ll surely get excited about other releases as the year goes on, and grow my backlog an embarrassing amount, but these two are the only ones I really look forward to.

All the games I can recall in no particular order:

  • Nioh 2 PC
  • Persona 5 Strikers
  • Fights in Tight Spaces
  • X4: Cradle of Humanity
  • Trails of Cold Steel IV
  • Nier: Replicant
  • Scarlet Nexus
  • Tales of Arise
  • Hellish Quart
  • Distant Worlds 2
  • Tactical Breach Wizards
  • Impostor Factory
  • Deathloop
  • Atelier Ryza 2
  • Phantom Brigade
  • Star Fleet II: Krellan Commander 2.0
  • Ys IX: Monstrum Nox
  • Shadow Warrior 3
