Looking forward to what games?

[F-I-D-O]

Doom 4 - heard very good things about the last closed alpha, and it looks like it'll at least be fun
XCom 2
Persona 5 (hopeful)
Warhammer: Total War - First Total War in a while I've been interested in, and I love that setting.
Dark Souls 3
Killing Floor 2 Content complete (hopeful)
Horizon: Zero Dawn. Been waiting to grab a ps4 until Persona 5, this one might push me over.
Overwatch

 

[Vigormortis]

I've got a few...

Doom - Tried the alpha. It was fantastic. Really can't wait to dive into the campaign upon release. Oh, and SnapMap looks fun and surprisingly robust.

No Man's Sky - I haven't been this excited for a game release in years. I'm fully aware that my anticipation may come back to bite me, but the sheer potential of this game has me in awe.

Hob - An homage to grandiose, stylized adventure games like Zelda, Ico, and Shadow of the Colossus by the team behind Torchlight 2. What's NOT to love? Plus, even the early gameplay vids look downright gorgeous. Runic has some talented artists.

Routine - An atmospheric exploration game with equal parts horror, tension, and mystery. What little has been shown looks remarkable. Especially when one considers the game's being made by a team of just three people.

Battletech - A turn-based strategy game from the original creator of the series and the dev behind the recent Shadowrun games. Really hoping it's a return to form for the series.

Yooka-Laylee - The spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie, and developed by the original Rare team. How could I not be excited?

Firewatch - A story-driven first person game with heavy emphasis on atmosphere and exploration. Campo Santo, the dev behind the game, is comprised of some of Telltale Game's best people. Can't wait to unravel the story in this one.

Homeworld: Shipbreakers - Haven't heard anything from the team for about a year. Not since the whole thing with Gearbox and the Homeworld Remastered release, anyway. I'm still holding out hope that the game's in active development.

Half-Life 3 - Egh, you never know. 2016 could be the year...
. . . . .
Or not. Whichever.


It's funny. Looking over my list (and a few I haven't mentioned) I've come to realize that, besides Doom, there aren't many, if any, other triple-A games that I'm genuinely excited for in 2016. Virtually all of my anticipated games are indies or smaller budget affairs.

Hmm. Odd, that. I guess I'm just getting burned out on the triple-A industry.

 

[Scarim Coral]

These lots-

Fire Emblem: Fates
Hyper Light Drifters

Also these ones aswell assuming if they will be coming out in 2016

[Zen Bard]

Elder Scrolls VI: ElsewVIre

Naah...right now, I got nuthin'.

I WAS looking forward to Fallout 4 and Assassin's Creed Syndicate, but the reviews have been so mixed, I'm not sure.

I'm also still on the XBox 360, so I'm waiting for that one stellar game to motivate my move to current gen.

Right now...I'm not seeing much.

 

[OldDirtyCrusty]

For Honour - seems like it's not the usual ubi formular. I think it looks interesting so far.

Already mentioned:
Uncharted 4 - for flashy popcorn entertainment. If i get what i'm expecting i'm happy. Hopefully Nathan get's a good story with a satisfying ending.

Ark - hopefully they get the console versions right. Thanks to the previous poster, i almost forgot about it.

Horizon - looks fresh. Glad that we get a new ip instead of another Killzone.

Doom - hell yeah.

 

[MrCalavera_v1legacy]

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Mirror's Edge Catalyst
SP: Fractured but whole
Tides of Numenara.

aaand Indivisible. That's all i can think about right now.

 

[Leon Royce]

Dragon's Dogma PC: I can't wait. I really want to play this. It looks awesome.

Dark Souls III: Loved the first one.

Deus Ex mankind divided.

 

[Fdzzaigl]

Nr1: XCOM2

Plus:
Tides of Numenera
Dark Souls 3
Overwatch
Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen (PC Version)
Rise of the Tomb Raider (PC version)
The Division

Also:
Mass Effect: Andromeda
Mirror's Edge 2

But more would need to be released about those to really catch my interest.

 

[EyeReaper]

Oh there's quite a bit. Next year's gonna be a much more costly one for me than this ear was, fo' sho. Off the top of my head there's...

Pokken Fighters
Persona 5
Fire Emblem Fates.
Megadimension Neptunia 7
MegaTagmension: Blanc + Neptune VS the Zombies
Final Fantasy Explorers
Wolf Link Amiibo/Animal Crossing wave 2
Digimon: Cyber Sleuth

And I think there was a few more, but I feel this list is big enough without me having to bring google search into it.

 

[sageoftruth]

I've had my eye on Indivisible for awhile.
Other than that, I've just been focused on what I'm currently playing in my Steam library.

 

[McMarbles]

I'm looking forward to Dragon Quest next year. Especially Dragon Quest VII, but especially especially Dragon Quest VIII.

 

[esserin]

I eagerly await for the release of these games:

Crosscode:

Spoiler: Trailer for those that don't know what it is

That which sleeps: Play as an old god as you reawaken, break free from your seal and take over the world through subterfuge while the heroes slowly learn about your existence and try to figure out how to stop you? Yes, please!

Kingdom hearts 3
Xcom 2

I don't think I need to explain these two.

Hob - An homage to grandiose, stylized adventure games like Zelda, Ico, and Shadow of the Colossus by the team behind Torchlight 2. What's NOT to love? Plus, even the early gameplay vids look downright gorgeous. Runic has some talented artists.

Oooh, never heard of this before. Looks fun.

 

[bartholen_v1legacy]

One and only one: Dark Souls III. By its release I should have my engineer's thesis finished, so there should be no major projects wearing down on me upon its arrival. I'll probably declare myself officially dead for about a week when it releases.

 

[pookie101]

you people have no taste at all

the only game im truly excited about and hyped for is cyberpunk 2077.. only been waiting since 1990 for it

 

[Jute88]

Mount&Blade 2 Bannerlord - I can't wait to conquer my own kingdom again in Calradia.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - I just hope it doesn't have last game's annoying boss battles.

Farcry: Primal - Never been that interested in the Farcry series, but Primal has a Earth's Children feel to it.

 

[Xeros]

Mainly No Man's Sky

No Man's Sky - I haven't been this excited for a game release in years. I'm fully aware that my anticipation may come back to bite me, but the sheer potential of this game has me in awe.

This and this. I've been chomping at the bit to play No Man's Sky. There are a few others piquing my interest, but they pale in comparison to how excited I am am to pl-fuck, I'm drooling again.

 

[thebobmaster_v1legacy]

X-Com 2- Playing through X-Com: Enemy Within right now, and loving it.

Mass Effect: Andromeda- I don't care what anyone says, the Mass Effect trilogy remains my overall favorite video game trilogy, although I am more cautious about Andromeda due to hoping they do something more with the new galaxy than just have you run into not-quarians, not-turians, and so on.
