Spider-Man

Red Dead Redemption 2

Battlefield V

Really all I care about for the rest of this year.

Until Spider-Man, I'll just keep playing Dark Souls Remastered and maybe clear out some PS+ backlog.

For me, probably Red Dead, Spyro, Battlefield V and that's it.

If Cod's BR mode turns out to be great, I'll hop in with that as well.

Also Eitr is supposed to come out this year at some point so that also.

September - Xeno DLC, Valkyria 4

I feel like the list will grow once some more release dates are solidified.

Too Much! Going month by month, I want:

- September -
Spiderman PS4

- October -
Forza Horizon 4
Battlefield V
Red Dead Redemption 2

- November -
Let's Go Pikachu
Shadow of the Colossus Remastered (Black Friday)
Ni No Kuni 2 (Black Friday)
PlayStation Plus (Black Friday)

- December -
Smash Bros Ultimate

I wanted stuff in July/August, but I'm reserving that space to finish some of my backlogged games. I'll never catch up, but there are a few games I really want to finish to 100% before I buy into a ton of new ones.

September and October are crazy, way too many games.
I'll probably pick up Dark Souls Remastered and Monster Hunter Generations for the Switch during summer, Spider-Man in September and Forza/Assassin's Creed/Battlefield/Fallout in the fall but there's no way I can get all of them this year.

I've bolded the shit I'll get day one. I'll get a lot of the other stuff on that list too, but the bolded stuff is my first priority.

Dead Cells (August) and Divinity. Maybe Smash. That's about it. Luckily I'm not interested in too much and can catch up on games I missed last year.

"stacked"

I see maybe 5 games I'll get and I expect just cause 4 and hitman 2 to get delayed. So not a whole lot but it's nothing abnormal. The last 3 months of the year are usually reserved for the generic third party shit like COD.

Probably just RDR2 and Forza Horizon 4. Backlog games are just as good as new ones I'm finding lol.

Just Destiny 2's Forsaken expansion and RDR2. Other games like AC: Odyssey can wait for later on down the line when its perhaps on sale. By the time I'm done with RDR2 (which will be never because I'm going to play it forever), it should probably be on sale.

It's certainly not stacked for my tastes.

Probably Spider-Man for the PS4....nothing on the Switch at present.

Crazy months ahead, especially September:
  • Dragon Quest XI (PC)
  • Octopath Traveler (Switch)
  • Valkyria Chronicles 4 (PC)
  • Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Torna (Switch)
  • Code Vein (PC)
  • Yakuza 0 (PC)
Right now, I'm playing through Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and Mario+Rabbids is already bought as well. No idea where I will find the time.
