Hades II is my most anticipated game, and I bet it’s much the same for many of you. I’ve already started tracking the game’s progress in these articles about the Hades 2 release date and the game’s story – I’m fully invested.
If you’ve been in a deep slumber for the past few years, Hades II is the follow-up to an incredible action-RPG set in the Greek underworld. In fact, for what it’s worth, it was the game the rekindled my love for video games after my interest had started to fade.
That being so, I just voted for Hades II in The Game Awards this year, after the game was nominated in the TGA’s Most Anticipated Game category. Update: it didn’t win. Keep scrolling down for all the gossip!
And the Most Anticipated Game of 2024 is…
The winner is… drum roll please…
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth
This story-drive sci-fi RPG is the follow-up to FFVII Remake, which impressed so many (including my dear wife, who enjoyed it very much) back in 2020.
This remake of one of the best-loved classic JRPGs of the PS1 era only told part of the story, and thus I guess it’s only natural that there is a lot of interest from people wanting to see how things unfold.
Thus, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth has been confirmed as the most anticipated game of next year, however, I think it probably also just highlights that people don’t know much about anything these days.
There were several other games mentioned during the event, and you can read about them below…
Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth is yet another crime drama by Sega and Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio. What makes this one interesting is the setting, with the franchise reaching Hawaii.
Star Wars Outlaws is genuinely intriguing. The combination of the Star Wars license and Ubisoft going big on a story adventure has real blockbuster potential. I haven’t seen enough of it to get really excited though…
The final game in the list is Tekken 8. Rumour has it that it will be a radical departure from Tekken 7, with completely non-violent puzzle based gameplay…
As you can see from this graphic below, The Game Awards is due to take place on December 7. You can vote for Hades II here.
