A look at the games we're excited for in 2023
Hello! Today we've got together a list of the games of 2023 that we're most looking forward to.
The reception to this has been a little muted ever since it was first revealed at the PS5 showcase under the 'Project Athia' banner, though having played a few hours ourselves there's plenty of reason for optimism.
I just hope I do not kill too many Kerbals off with my failed launches and less-than-SpaceX-finesse when returning to terra firma.Fans of traditional JRPGs get a bit of a treat in the form of Octopath Traveller 2 this February. As with the original game, players explore a detailed fantasy world playing as a party of eight, all with their unique abilities. New to the sequel, amongst other things, is a day and night cycle that will impact characters' path actions.
There's an impressive production around that core, too. The open world was gorgeously intricate and dour, and there's a more notable feeling of story in the world, of characters and character. And it's delightfully eerie and unsettling in tone. New antagonist Lillith, the mother of humanity, is captivating.
What we're left with as a result is a game that's broader, deeper and more finely tuned than I would have hoped for. Whenever I see it in action, I'm genuinely taken aback by it. It's a sequel I expect will not only live up to the name of Baldur's Gate, and the games that came before it, but perhaps even outshine them. And I never thought I'd say that.
