Upcoming 'hidden gems' you are are really excited about
- Thread starter MickZan
- Start date
I'm very excited for Afterparty. I really enjoyed Oxenfree and everything about Afterparty sounds so cool so far.
Came out a at the start of the month, but CROSSNIQ+ (PC, Switch) is the chill stylish puzzle game the doctor ordered.
Artstyle is fantastic and looks really cozy to play.
Again, another interesting looking game with a great artstyle.
PC/VR Open world game with online elements. Beta was rough, but hopefully they can fix the issues.
A VR game with physics. VR + Physics = greatness.
Honorable Mentions:
Zenith: The Cyberpunk MMO For VR and Desktop
Start your life as a legendary hero in a dynamic, player driven MMO inspired by your favorite JRPGs and Anime. (For VR and PC)
Very excited for these! Can't wait to get my hands on them.

I am really excited for Cross Code. I know it has been out on PC for a while but waiting for PS4 or Switch release. Any news on that? That game could become something similar to Hollow Knight, that just blew up once it released on consoles, even though being out for a while on PC.
I put around 50 hours in to the beta alone and I can't wait for the full release nov 5. Planet Zoo seems to be Frontiers passion project, using the mechanical things they've learned from Planet Coaster and putting every bit of animal animations and behavior from Jurassic World in to their new game.
They''ve been also really forthcoming with feedback, so much they're adding a extra game mode in there because of it.

Maybe not that hidden, but I'm looking forward to Spelunky 2. I loved the orginal and put a lot of time into it.
Picontier, if it ever releases. Sort of a mashup of farming sim/adventure rpg with the wacky atmosphere of the Mother (Earthbound) series and made by the people who made Kamiko and Fairune.
Frontier yes, although I'm not sure how much of the team back then works on this. The studio has a varied portfolio, they also made Elite Dangerous and Dog's Life haha.

I believe that will come right about when we see Metroid Prime 4 for the first time. My prediction is it will also either shadow drop or only be a month wait at the most.
I'm curious to hear more about Mineko's Night Market. The art direction and characters look really charming, and I'm all for laid back, Animal Crossing-style gameplay with some exploration, gathering and sales sim thrown in.
Definitely Demon's Tilt, the dark mixture of pinball and shoot 'em up with terrific graphics and soundtrack that's coming to Game Pass later this year.
Loved Overcooked 1 and 2 and never heard of this. It looks great though and now I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks.
A sequel to Pathfinder: Kingmaker was confirmed on Owlcats own twitch stream a few weeks ago, Im super excited by that. The first game had some trouble at launch, but it was still a stellar first effort. Hoping for a massively improved sequel to an already great game.
FIGHT KNIGHT on Steam
FIGHT KNIGHT is a first-person dungeon-brawler! Grid-based dungeon crawling meets action-packed real time enemy encounters. Fight your way through puzzles and enemies to save those trapped in the Tower's eternal night!
Cathedral on Steam
Make your way through more than 600 rooms, and unravel the secrets of your past by finding the five elemental orbs. Cathedral features a vast world, meant for exploring!
Later has already been released but it's rock solid
Atomic Heart, if they can actually pull it off (which I'm very sceptical of). But that trailer was.. amazing
I came here today to start a thread with a similar question, but it may belong in this thread instead:
I'm trying to compile a list of upcoming sort of "AA" titles. Ones that aren't top-tier necessarily, but also aren't really hidden gems?
Examples would be Scavengers, Outriders and (maybe) New World.
Any others you guys can think of? I dunno, maybe it needs it's own thread as it's a bit different from Hidden Gems per se.

I saw this and I love it. It reminds me of DrillDozer for some reason.
This looks like Devil Crash.Definitely Demon's Tilt, the dark mixture of pinball and shoot 'em up with terrific graphics and soundtrack that's coming to Game Pass later this year.
Boneworks.
It's pushing the boundaries of gaming more than any other (revealed) title right now. Yes, that includes the likes of Cyberpunk, Last of Us Part II.

I did not know this existed. Now I must have it.Definitely Demon's Tilt, the dark mixture of pinball and shoot 'em up with terrific graphics and soundtrack that's coming to Game Pass later this year.
Huge fan of Size Five Games (Time Gentlemen Please, The Swindle) and hoping Lair of the Clockwork God manages to nail the platforming / point-and-click combo.
i guess it's not exactly a hidden gem since it's by a well known dev, but i'm very excited for creaks by amanita design.
I'm hoping for good things from Liege.
It's a Kickstarter game that has been in development for ages by one person. He hasn't updated much but he's been very active in the comments. From the sound of things there's been a lot of changes and he's hoping to re-reveal it and get back to regular updates this year. I'm a bit skeptical after all these years, but I suppose we'll know for sure how it's coming along if we see something concrete in the next couple months. If not I'll probably have to brush it off as vaporware.
