Between The Plucky Squire, Tekken 8, Black Myth Wukong, Hellblade 2, Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth, Stalker 2, Rise of the Ronin or FF7 Rebirth, your wallet and social life will still be damaged. It should also be a good year for fans of horror games with the return of Alone in the Dark, the console version of Outlast Trials and many other titles – at least we hope so. And the Silent Hill 2 remake in all of this?
