Not only that, but Techland has been fairly quiet on just when we’d see the game, which was said to be in “the final stretch” of development back in May 2020. While Techland has been doing a bang-up job of keeping things going with more content for Dying Light long after its 2015 release, we’re all still waiting on Dying Light 2, which is another title that has seen a delay from its original 2020 launch. Paradox Interactive CEO Ebba Ljungerud assured that the game will be coming this year, but happenings like this are eyebrow-raisers, for sure.ĭying Light 2 (Techland, 2021 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series) What was originally delayed in order to prevent a repeat with the previous Bloodlines has turned into a bit of a show in and of itself, with Hardsuit Labs’ narrative team unexpectedly receiving the axe last year. Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 (Hardsuit Labs, 2021 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One) But with the alpha demo last year, we finally got glimpses at the nightmarish world we can’t wait to revisit on Citadel Station. It’s been years since the Kickstarter, and the move to a new engine. System Shock (Nightdive Studios, TBC for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC) Little Nightmares 2 picks up after the events of that game, with previous protagonist Six accompanying a new playable character as they work together to escape from the menacing and monstrous adults who roam the world. Originally slated for last year, at least February will bring us some excitement for this follow-up to the 2017 gem. Little Nightmares 2 (Tarsier Studios, February 10 on PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC) The sequel will reportedly expand upon the base-building mechanic found in the previous game, along with a host of new monsters and cannibals. Sons of the Forest (Endnight Games, Release Date, and Platforms TBC)Īnnounced ever so briefly during The Game Awards 2019, we still don’t have much more to go on with this follow-up to The Forest. The prologue demo for the title has had a positive response, and the intro cinematic for the title establishes the gory action you’d expect from a demonic priestess looking to take revenge, and take back her kingdom. Madmind’s keeping up with the NSFW nature of Agony in Succubus, though they’ve hopefully learned from the pitfalls they experienced with the former. Succubus (Madmind Studios, July 22 on PC) And where’s the fun in revealing the story for something as cool-looking as that? After all, you’re in a biomechanical world that looks like something straight out of Alien. There’s still nothing yet in terms of a story, but that’s probably deliberate. Giger-inspired title, which last showed off a rather lengthy gameplay trailer back in October. Scorn (Ebb Software, TBC on PC, Xbox Series)Įbb Software says that the wait is almost over for their H.R. At the same time, a group wearing Hannya masks has appeared, who may hold the answers to just what’s been happening. The story concerns much of Tokyo’s population vanishing, followed by the arrival of the Visitors – hostile spirits based on Japanese folklore. While there’s still the lingering question of what Bethesda’s plans are for Sony’s console (seeing as Microsoft owns them now), the developer did confirm that they’re going to honor their commitment to bringing this action-adventure title to the PS5. GhostWire: Tokyo (Tango Gameworks, TBC on PS5, Xbox Series, and PC) Of course, the question is, is this is real, or something more sinister? According to Madmind, the only clue they’re giving us for a release date is that it’ll be after Succubus. The game takes place in the 80s, and puts you in the shoes of Patrick, a recluse suffering from deepening paranoid schizophrenia, who after many years is leaving his apartment to reunite with his sister. Madmind has had a habit of not revealing more info on their games, and Paranoid is no exception. Though details are still light, from what we’ve seen, the game looks to be a blast to play as a lycanthrope roaming the American Northwest. The title is one of the first video game adaptations in the Werewolf: The Apocalypse line of tabletop RPGs. Starting things off with one of the many delayed titles from 2020 is Earthblood. Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Earthblood (Cyanide Studios, February 4 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series, and Xbox One) Here are 31 of our most anticipated video games of 2021. But, seeing as we want them so darn much, it stands to reason that we should still keep an eye out for them this year, whenever they drop. Now admittedly, a good chunk of these games were delayed (for obvious reasons) from last year. Since we’re all sticking to the idea of staying apart, it’s nice to have these things to keep us busy. One area of course is horror-based video games. I think we can all be thankful that 2020 has come and gone, and while the difficulties still remain in the new year, there’s plenty to look forward to in a lot of areas.
