This month we are taking a look at Hitman III, Cyber Shadow, and Atelier Ryza 2.

However, perhaps the most beloved games of 2021 are those we will not know about until weeks before they even release, and that brings us to the single player games of January. Some of the most exciting are sequels to phantasmagorical darlings of yesteryear, such as Psychonauts 2, Little Nightmares 2, and Australian game development’s crown jewel, Hollow Knight: Silksong.Įven the middle tier looks stacked for this year, with Xbox Game Pass supporting horror adventures like The Medium and Scorn, Sega releasing its take on the Civilization formula with Humankind, and Japanese developers turning out sure-to-be-hits such as Bravely Default II, Disgaea 6, and Shin Megami Tensei V. We can also look forward to plenty of smaller and independent titles in 2021, including The Artful Escape, Kena: Bridge of Spirits, and Square’s weirdly risky platformer Balan Wonderworld. There are also huge tentpole exclusives, from PlayStation’s Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, to Xbox’s Halo Infinite, to Nintendo’s Breath of the Wild sequel. As generally terrible as the world can be, however, this new year bodes even better for fans of video games.įor 2021, solo players can expect big returning franchises like with the odd and scary Resident Evil Village or the gorgeous and deadly Horizon Forbidden West. We made it through 2020, an uncommonly good year for games (especially single player games), if not for anything else.
