Players don’t get to manipulate time like in earlier iterations, but the antagonist does.
Unfortunately, we saw how that worked out with the Saints Row reboot.
You might want to hold off on this one until critics and fans have time to speak out.
The Last of Us Part II Remastered arrives the next day, January 19.
But did we even need The Last of Us Part II in the first place?
Plus, as a PlayStation exclusive, it might be years before it lands on PC.
Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth might be promising when it hits stores on January 26.
The Yakuza series has been a historic breadwinner for developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio and publisher Sega.
In the numbered series, we played as Kazuma Kiryu.
Yakuza: Like a Dragon introduced the wild-haired Ichiban Kasuga as the player character.
In this direct sequel to the game, both protagonists are playable.
If you are a Yakuza fan, keep this one on your radar.
February
A full dozen games arrive in February, starting with Granblue Fantasy: Relink.
However, it is a whole new game set in the Granblue universe.
Final Fantasy veterans Nobuo Uematsu (composer) and Hideo Minaba (artist) return in the turn-based RPG.
The original is a classic Atlus JRPG, and I’m all for giving it another spin.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League also arrives on February 2.
If you love Harley Quinn, cross your fingers.
One of the most delayed games in recent memory lands ashore on February 16.
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (unofficially FFVII part 2) finally launches on Leap Day, February 29.
Don’t get me wrong here.
Final Fantasy Remake was a fun retelling of part of the FFVII story.
However, therein lies the problem I have with Rebirth.
I have waited four years to play the second part of a game I played in full in 1997.
What games are you eagerly awaiting in 2024, even if they are slated for later in the year?
