Exoprimal
colossal exoskeletons against hordes of dinosaurs, what a combination! Capcom recovers that hooligan and carefree action that conquered us in its best stage and moves it to a future not far enough from our time.
Exoprimal is an intense experience of cooperative shooter in huge urban environments in which five players armed to the teeth must withstand the constant attack of dinosaurs and take down the greatest predators in the history of our planet. Of course, it will be time to wait: will be played on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC in 2023

Forspoken
Square Enix has been the main protagonist of the event, and it was very clear that Forspoken, its biggest new project for this year (at least, as far as we know), could not miss the new State of Play. Especially when it is on its own merits, one of the great PS5 console exclusivities.
Forspoken It will arrive later than expected, but it also shines in a new trailer that shocks and fills the eye, leaving us with honey on our lips again after seeing its release date: the new open world adventure from Luminous Productions will be played next October 11 on PS5 and PC.

“Yare yare daze…”. 2022 is a very special year for fans of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: No less than 35 years have passed since the manga was published and, in turn, ten years since the anime began to be broadcast.
Bandai Namco knows this very well and takes the opportunity to recover, update and dress up one of the best adaptations to the video game: JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle R brings together 50 mythical characters from the classic stages and puts them to fight. A true fantasy for all Jojo fans.
Trek to Yomi
Give back he always claims his own golden minute in any digital event, and what he brings in this State of Play follows the Japanese theme: Trek to Yomi is inspired by samurai cinema, offering a curious combination between historical Japan and its mythology.
We still don’t put a date on it, although we have three things clear: it will be played in the spring, it will be released on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X / S and PC, and it will be out on Game Pass.
Returnal: Ascension
The looping nightmare through Returnal’s ever-changing maze of Atropos not only continues but becomes even more interesting: the Ascension update adds two pieces of content that will make us rediscover the game and deepen the gaming experience:
- On the one hand, introducing an online cooperative way. An opportunity to head off problems or sow extra chaos and destruction.
- And if that were not enough, a new experience Arcade type call sisyphus towera challenge in which you will have to climb through 20 levels of increasing difficulty.
The best? These new contents will start to arrive starting March 25.

A very promising appetizer for a well-watered year of tactical role and that will arrive before closing 2022: The DioField Chronicle It will be available throughout this year on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X / S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC.
Valkyrie Elysium
The State of Play finale was put by Square Enix with another RPG, and despite the fact that we are already well served on their part, what was shown preserved the surprise factor: Valkyrie Elysium is the new installment for consoles of the Valkyrie saga in 13 years, taking the role to the field of epic action through a spectacular combat system that will come to PS4 and will also shine in 4K and 60 FPS on PS5.
The bad news: the release date of Valkyrie Elysium It’s up in the air for now. All in all, Square Enix has promised that we will be able to distribute swords and explosions on PlayStation and PC systems before the end of 2022.
