Which particular video game are you most hyped for in 2018?

CODE VEIN

Vampires check. Animu check. Challenging as any SOULS games check.

Very hyped for CODE VEIN on 2018.Hope it releases on Q1 2018.

wbu?

Looking forward to Hollow Knight on Switch and RDR, though the latter will depend on how much MTX bullshit they’ll try to get away with.

I will answer this question after Playstation Experience.

Monster Hunter World. It's back, baby.

Cool choice ! Code vein looks like my kinda game too :D

I'm most looking forward to:

- Insurgency Sandstorm

- Age of Empires IV

- Company of heroes 3

- Battlefield 2018

These 2 are my most hype games of 2018 and will make 2018 as one of the best year alone.

Just the new Battlefield

Days Gone

Metro Exodus

System Shock reboot

Spiderman

Far Cry 5

God OF War

Monster Hunter World

Halo 6, RDR2, Sea of Thieves, State of Decay 2 and Crackdown 3.

Mount & Blade 2 Bannerlord

Monster Hunter World

Nothing so far. Maybe Shenmue 3 but I'm not sure.(Have to play the first 2 ones)

Metro Exodus. They only game I consider a day 1 purchase.

Given what Nintendo has done with Zelda and Mario I am just interested to see what the heck they are going to do next. They seem to be the only developer taking risks atm.

1. BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle
2. SMT V (if its 2018)
3. Persona 3/5 DAN

Those are the ones im there day 1 for

to be fair I wouldnt call zelda or mario games risks lol, there will be fans there to love it no matter what.

YES

Yup

@aigis:

Your judging the game by the cover. The reality is the games got flipped upside down. Zelda is completely new. Mario is completely new. Both these titles are fresher than any game released for quite some time.

Red Dead Redemption is literally the reason I bought an Xbox One X

and Valkyria Chronicles 4.

Zelda yes is new, but lets not pretend it wasnt building hype for like 5 years. There are legions of Zelda fans that will buy any Zelda game because it such a beloved franchise and was on a new console. This wasnt a risk at all, there is no chance that a new Zelda game after a 6 year interval on a new system wouldnt have a huge attach rate. I know this is based on the name, but Nintendo knows they have good will they can use to shake it up

Mario is not a new kind of mario game at all, its a variation of other sandbox mario games in line with 64 and Sunshine, its not too off the beaten track that people are questioning Nintendo on this one.

@aigis:

Odyssey is still very very different from a control mechanism standpoint.

... Skyward Sword was a dud in many people's eyes.

@uninspiredcup:

Next month!

Not long to go :D

The same can be said about Final Fantasy, and that series hasn't been good since 2003.

Yoshi Switch. Kirby Switch. Pokemon Switch. Metroid Prime Quatro.

there will be fans there to love it no matter what.

RDR2, SotC Remake, DISSIDIA, We Happy Few

Yakuza Kiwami 2. Before 0 came out, 2 was almost unanimously considered the best game in the series. So to get a remake that has a plethora of new content and that's being made using the new dragon engine is going to be so awesome.

Other than that, I'm looking forward to these games (assuming that they all come out next year): Yakuza 6, Valkyria Chronicles 4, Metroid Prime 4, Dragon Ball FighterZ, Freedom Planet 2, Shenmue 3, and Bloodstained.

I'm excited for this, especially because it's on PC and the gameplay videos look superb.

they added more mechanics from a game that came out in '96, that doesnt make it conceptually different. The same could be said about flood drastically changing the sunshine, it has different things going on but the base is still exactly the same.

Skyward Sword was a critical flop among fans which really just proves my point even more, SS still sold well despite sucking 3.54 million units. People will buy it no matter what, commercially SS is on point and on top of all that you even had to buy a peripheral just to play the game. Really SS is a commercial success in Nintendo's eyes

depends on who you ask

Monster Hunter World and Shadow of the Colossus.

Why are you Hyped for a old game Michael?

I think the main ones for me are Monster Hunter: World, System Shock, Dragon Ball FighterZ and Super Meat Boy Forever.

@aigis:

Well it is in the platformer genre. It is drastically different. racing games are A to B. Burnout goes from a to b. Forza goes from a to b. They are similar in that regard as they are in the same genre. The difference is what happens between a to b. In this respect these games are drastically different

Red Dead Redemption 2. I've been waiting for a Rockstar game on current generation platforms. This smells like GOTY.

I dont understand what the genre has to do with anything. Its like saying Dark Souls and Bloodborne are drastically different games because bloodborne has a greater focus on being aggressive. Yes they are different mechanically, but they share the same trail-and-error difficulty base. Mario is no different, it has a new mechanic on a familiar base (mario 64 with cappy, just like sunshine and flood). They are different games, but they arent drastically different that it would be considered a risk

@aigis:

Fair point on Mario. In fact Nintendo was very smart about catering the game to both the casual and speed running crowd. It can be very simple, yet the depth is much much greater than the past few entries in the Mario series.

I still stand by my original point. They are daring titles. Imo Nintendo played it quite safe going back to Windwaker, twilight princess, galaxy, 3d land. They're design focus seems to have shifted back to being more open and experimental with what they set to accomplish.

Red Dead Redemption 2, Anthem, Dragon Ball FighterZ, Dragon Quest XI, Halo 6, Kingdom Hearts 3, Forza Horizon 4, and Monster Hunter World are at the top of my list.

Ni No Kuni 2, Dragon Quest XI, Red Dead Redemption 2, Kingdom Hearts 3, God of War, Valkyria Chronicles 4, Shenmue 3, Spiderman, and Detroit: Become Human if it releases

Sea of Thieves assuming it releases. Not sure how much I'll actually play it though, I am kind of more hyped to try out other enhanced titles on my Xbox One X once I have it.

+100

@uninspiredcup said:

Yes THIS!

Well God Of War for sure ...

then maybe Secret Of Mana for my Vita

and maybe Ninokuni 2. Loved the first one but I don't know if I'm ready for a very long game and way longer side quest that will leave me burned

GOD of WAR

I'll play these too -

• Detroit Become Human
• Days Gone
• Red Dead Redemption 2
• Spider-man
• Yakuza Kiwami 2
• Yakuza 6
• Metro Exodus

Not sure what else yet.
