After all, in Breath of the Wild , players could spend plenty of time creating new recipes, scavenging new weapons, and acquiring new armor. Letting Link create new decorations for his house as well feels like a natural evolution of those mechanics. Not to mention, having Link build his own furniture would be a perfect follow-up to Breath of the Wild 's survival fo Two Point Studios are still relatively new, but they've already put out two fantastic games in Two Point Hospital and the more recent Two Point Campus . While each game looks at a different business and has significantly different features, the core gameplay is pretty much the s Many Nintendo fans are eagerly awaiting news of a Nintendo Direct which is speculated to be happening within the first quarter of the year. One game many fans are hoping to see more of is The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom , the highly anticipated sequel to Breath of the Wild that will be released on May, 12th 2 Hogwarts Legacy is another upcoming game that will be released early enough in the year that players will be able to complete the <a href="http://xn--l1ae1d.xn--b1agalyeon.xn--80adxhks/user/AdrianneOzi/">SLG game cheats</a> before Tears of the Kingdom is released. After several delays, the game finally has an official release date of Feb. 10, 2 However, with Web of Wyrd ’s release date still undetermined, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is my most anticipated game of 2023. Despite being pretty burned out on Marvel over the last several years, Insomniac’s depiction of the mythos in the Peter Parker-led Marvel’s Spider-Man and its Miles Morales spinoff has stood out as a major breath of fresh air. With the chance to expand the open-world of the past two games and put the power of PS5 to full use, I’m very much looking forward to seeing how Insomniac’s web-slingers have evolved when Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 releases this fa If we knew for sure that Hellboy: Web of Wyrd would be dropping in 2023, then there would be no contest for it as my most anticipated game of the year. Mike Mignola’s Hellboy is my favorite comic book series of all time, and I’ve been asking for a new Hellboy and BPRD game ever since 2008's disappointing Science of Evil . For its part, the recently-announced Hellboy: Web of Wyrd looks as if it’s reached into my brain and pulled out the exact picture of what my ideal game based on Dark Horse’s pancake-chomping occult specialist would look like, and I cannot wait to (hopefully) go drinking with some skeletons and clobber some ghouls when it eventually relea Link's house in Breath of the Wild was never much to look at, but The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom _ could make it into something better. A legendary character like Link deserves a place that they can call their own, especially after saving the world. _Tears of the Kingdom could let players give Link the kind of house that he deser The stages of fighting this epic skeleton and then just its disembodied head alone made for one of the most memorable fights in the series that would flourish in another appearance. Riding the Spinner throughout the Twilight Princess Stallord encounter also adds a blistering pace to the boss fight, an element Tears of the Kingdom could glean inspiration f Final Fantasy 16 already looks like my ideal blend of FFXIV and Ivalice games. A high fantasy setting, warring kingdoms, Eikons fighting in kaiju battles - where do I sign up! I’m not quite sold on FF16 's combat, as seen in trailers , but I trust Yoshi-P and the team at Creative Business Unit III. The more fantasy-leaning JRPGs have always been my favorites, and I can’t wait to see what FF16 ’s world and story have in store. It’s been a while since I’ve truly fallen in love with a Final Fantasy game, so I’m hoping FF16 recaptures that feeling. Between this and Trails From Reverie , this summer is already shaping up to be a great one for JR Sometimes a challenge is the last thing a player wants on long journeys, especially when they're in a confined space. That's where games like New Pokemon Snap come into it. The gameplay is very simple and the fact that it's set in the Pokemon universe alone will make it appealing to plenty of f Elden Ring was Game of the Year for 2022 and Tears of the Kingdom is promising to be a candidate for 2023's Game of the Year. There are few recent games better than Elden Ring and the genre is similar enough that players who enjoy Zelda will likely fall in love with to love Elden R It's easily one of the best indie games available for the console, and it gives most players the urge to have one more run before they set it down. Because of that, Hades is the ideal game to take on a long journey and get lost With so many upcoming games to look forward to, it's hard to pick just one game to crown the Most Anticipated of 2023. As such, the Screen Rant gaming editors have come together to each share what they're most eager to get their hands on this year. From PC to Nintendo Switch, here's every game Screen Rant can't wait for in 2
