The gaming world is always on the edge of its seat—always waiting to see what the next big game release is going to be. 2021 has already seen some extremely anticipated releases, but now it’s time to look ahead to what’s coming in 2023. Here’s a list of the 41 most anticipated games of 2023.
Let’s start with the biggest release of the year: Halo 6. The sixth installment of the iconic Halo series is sure to give us more of the action and adventure that the franchise is known for. This time, the game will feature a new protagonist and an open-world experience, with plenty of multiplayer goodness. Also coming to the Xbox is The Elder Scrolls VI, the long-rumored sequel to the beloved Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Bethesda has been tight-lipped on details, but expect a sprawling open-world to explore, with plenty of dragons and magic to keep you busy.
The PlayStation 4 will also be getting some great games in 2023, including the highly anticipated sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn. The game will undoubtedly bring more of the stunning open-world visuals, riveting story, and robot dinosaurs that the first game was known for. On top of that, a sequel to one of the best-selling games of all time, Grand Theft Auto VI, is also in the works. The game will take players to a new version of Liberty City and give them more of the depraved criminal hijinks that the series is known for.
2023 will also see the release of some exciting indie games, including the procedurally generated game No Man’s Sky. This time around, the universe will be even bigger, with a more detailed crafting system as well as plenty of the open-world exploration the series is known for. And if you’re looking for something a bit more off the beaten path, the first-person adventure game, Dear Esther 2, is sure to be a hit.
Of course, there are plenty of other exciting games coming in 2023, from the zombie-filled Days Gone 2 to the brutally dark God of War V. All these games, as well as many more, will be released sometime in 2023. Until then, we can only speculate about what kinds of gaming experiences these games will bring.
