Oh man I totally forgot about this game. I remember being at work and being the only one saying "yoooo you guys see Returnal!?" My vote goes to this, too.

Was about to post this.
Definitely Returnal. Housemarqe's amazing combat tied to a weird, dark sci-fi setting is hype.

And now I've realised I don't really looking forward to any game in particular. That's kinda depressing.
I mean, I hope Baldur's Gate 3 will turn out OK. But I have zero trust in Larian Studios and fully expect BG3 to remain an early access game for 3 to 5 years and then still be broken at v1.0.

Deathloop, the new game from Arkane.
Arkane has knocked it out of the park with every project they've worked on. While I'd kill for a new Dishonored, I'm excited for a new IP from them too. Right now it looks like PS5 only for consoles, but I think it's just a timed exclusive so I'll wait for it on Xbox. Really looking forward to seeing more of it, and I think the concept for the game ... this character-driven story game with a sort of groundhog day concept is just really clever, and is going to fit so well into their crazy world building and level design talents.
The groundhog day concept is just so clever for a game narrative wise.

Cyberpunk, Returnal, Halo Infinite, Final Fantasy XVI, Resident Evil 8
Only concerns with FFXVI and Halo is that they were not very impressive in their recent showings. However, for me, all listed above are super promising in gameplay, tone, art and feel. Can't wait to see more!

I legit think Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity will be something special, it just looks so good and has honestly hyped me up more for BotW2 on top of it.
Nier Replicant is another I think people shouldn't sleep on.

Came here to say this. The game has an incredible potential.
If you are a fan of pulpy Lovecraftian stuff you will love it. Each episode is like a scenario out of the table top game Arkham Horror. Which is to say, things change wildly from episode to episode but it is a fun ride that perfectly executes the tropes of the genre. If you aren't familiar with it then it is hard to say if you will like it or not. I personally absolutely love everything about it.

Yakuza: Like a Dragon.
Despite technically being crime dramas about the Japanese underworld, Yakuza games have a ton of heart, fun humour and incredibly likeable characters. I'm certain the new one will be the same. And the story is supposed to be standalone so you don't need to beat the previous 6 games.

12 Minutes looks full of promise to me, and I'm a little surprised it appears to be going under the radar so much.
Huh, I came in here expecting to be the first to say this game only to have been beaten by 5 minutes. Seriously though, I have a pretty good feeling about this one. BoTW clone or not, I think the game seems to have a lot put into it, and despite its liberal borrowing from a known blockbuster, actually seems like more of a passion project than Ubisoft's usual offerings.
Honestly I do not say BOTW clone as a disparaging remark. It has clearly influenced the games development. But that's a good thing because BOTW is an insanely good game.
Oh I didn't mean it as one either, I'm more than happy with games taking heavy inspiration from BoTW. I also don't think the inspiration is as heavy as people make it out to be, since I anticipate the games will end up being very different in terms of tone and structure.
Really, more open worlds could use the "unshackled traversal" that BoTW has, and I'm hoping it becomes more common in the future. The mechanic makes traversal so much more interesting than the "walk/ride in a vaguely straight line" that was kinda the open world standard before.
Yeah pretty much agree with everyone you said here. Def my most anticipated game of the moment. Fingers crossed it turns out as good as it looks!
Eiyuden is the only one that fits this exact feeling. Then to a lesser extent:
Deltarune, whatever the hell Christian Whitehead and Evening Star is working on, whatever IGA is doing next, Sonic Utopia/Project Hero and general updates of SRB2.
Everything else is in the category of 'maybe it will be good whenever I get around to playing it years later on pc at a reduced price.'

I've played Tunic several times at this point (at shows and a recent demo) and I absolutely adore it. Feels amazing.

Who's Christian Whitehead and Evening Star?
Never heard of these projects, but they sound interesting (I already know what Deltrarune is though)
Christian Whitehead is the guy that developed an engine that replicated the classic Sonic game's physics and showed up to Sega's door with a Sonic CD port in his engine. They since allowed him to port Sonic 1, 2 and CD to mobile and PC and let him make Sonic Mania. Since then he started his own studio with some of the Sonic Mania team called Evening Star which is a reference to Knuckles Chaotix. They're working on something but no word yet on what it is.
My short list right now.
Path of Exile 2
Hollow Knight: Silksong
Cyber Shadow
Astalon: Tears of the Earth

FUSER- Harmonix has never dissapointed me it will get no attention since it's releasing on series X launch day NOV 10 and it's my plan to play it while waiting for my new consoles to arrive.
I'm very hyped to play a better DJ Hero with no extra plastic instruments needed
I am absolutely confident I will have a good time on release date even if my consoles ship later
