With many eagerly awaited video game releases on the horizon, there is little doubt that 2017 could be a great year for video game fans. And there are plenty of mouth-watering releases coming our way in 2017, from Rockstar’s Wild West adventure Red Dead Redemption 2 to the stunning sci-fi shooter Prey, meaning this could surely be a year to remember for gamers. Here follows a list of the top 10 upcoming video games of 2017.
1. Red Dead Redemption 2
Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption was surely one of the highlights of the past console generation, due to its great story set in the Wild West, superbly realised characters and fantastic open-world gameplay. So it’s logical that fans of Rockstar’s games were ecstatic when the American video game company announced that Red Dead Redemption 2 would be coming to consoles in late 2017.
Little is known about the game so far though, but it’s likely to feature the same open-world gameplay and plenty of side activities to enjoy in its open world. And judging by the game’s reveal trailer, its American heartland setting is likely to be as eye-catching and detailed as other Rockstar worlds have been, making Red Dead Redemption 2 one release that video game fans will surely be looking forward to this year.
Release date: TBA 2017. Available on PS4 and Xbox One.
