Anticipating: February 2023

[Neon Ignition]

The new year is underway and whilst we wait for the first seeds of this years line up to emerge we are also tumbling toward the second month of the year, the month of luuurve.


Which games of February 2023 are you waiting to fall for and why?

[Golgo]

Very tempted by Octopath Traveller 2 and Like a Dragon: Ishin! And Hogwarts!! And Bloodbowl 3!!! Too much...

[Adam]

Missing: Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & the Secret Key

Curious about Wild Hearts and Hogwarts, they sound good to me.

[Cepp]

Yakuza is next month??? I've not even started my December pickups yet.

[kryss]

Will be buying nothing, but would like PSVR2, OT2 and Horizon VR in the future.
I'm 80% sure I can get a free upgrade for Ishin having bought the digital version from the J-PSN previously.

The more I've read about PSVR2, the more I want one.

Will probably wait and ask for money for my birthday in April to go towards it.

Kirby and Octopath II for sure. I'd love Blood Bowl 3, but I've yet to sink any time into 2.

[wakka]

Excited for PSVR2, slightly concerned about the cost...

Glad to see I’m not the only one interested in Threatrhythm. Loved the prior games on the 3ds, will be interested to see how this works on the switch

I'd want it, but after splurging on all of the additional DLC for the last one on the 3DS it puts me off somewhat. I also had my fill of that game pretty much, in that if I never hear any Final Fantasy music again for the rest of my life I'd die a happy man.

Atomic Heart is an easy option, I'm still weirdly keeping one eye on Hogwarts though I don't know if I'd jump in early. With PSVR2 I've settled on the idea that it's much wiser to let things play out on it. It's very clearly not going to sell out, there's an ear bursting silence from Sony in terms of mid-long term support and a heavy reliance on reheated PSVR1 era content so waiting to see and likely ending up paying less for it seems wise.

Ishin appeals but Yakuza games are also frequent enough and fast enough to drop in price that waiting will pay dividends.

[Atticus]

Just Yakuza for me. I'd love to dive in at launch for PSVR2 but it'll probably be something I pick up a little way down the line.
