Because I'm not letting Jay split the threads this year, hoo hah!
What we all looking forward to next year? Probably a bunch of stuff that got delayed from this year, for starters, but also things that were destined for 2017 in the first place. Some of mine ...
Persona 5
This is not the first time I've mentioned this game in one of these threads, because, well:
Yeah. But I really believe it's coming inFebruary April 2017!
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
I'm still not sure if I'm going to get this for Wii U, or wait until it comes out for Switch and just get them both. I guess that'll depend on details about the Switch (three months away and we still have a lot of questions) and it's proposed line-up for the future. But the game looks fantastic and definitely looking forward to it.
Yooka-Laylee
Still excited for this! Looks like it'll fill the void left by the good Rare days.
And apparently Shovel Knight is an NPC? Okay. Speaking of which!
Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment
I know, it's a (free) DLC campaign, but they really seem to have redone the game from the ground up with new levels, bosses, and a new story for Specter Knight, creating a Shovel Knight prequel within the engine of the same game. So fuck it, that sounds like enough of a new game for me to look forward to it among the top new stuff coming out next year.
That's all my big definite stuff next year so far. Sadly a lot of the AAA stuff just isn't drawing me attention. I'm certainly curious about some games though, so mention goes to
Horizon Zero Dawn
Nioh (assuming FromSoftware doesn't have something coming out in secret--please!)
How about you guys?
