I ended up ordering Monster: Hunter World as Best Buy had it on sale really cheap, and with the Gamer's Club Unlocked discount it came to $35.

The Xbox One version of YS Origin will be released on April 11 2018, and will feature Xbox exclusive goodies in the shape of an all-new speedrun mode and a "blood option." While that sounds like a special vampire menu, it actually lets players set the blood quantity they want to see in the game.

Latest Dragon Quest got release date for PS4 and PC (September 4) Switch version is comming eventually but not anytime soon (maybe it's one of those 1 year deals)

Sadly 3DS version got the axe and we won't be getting that one.

I'm looking forward to Extinction. Fighting giants and a vibrant, cartoony, style that really makes me think of 6th gen games.

Space Hulk: Death Wing Enhanced Edition also looks interesting. I'll wait and see how it runs before I make the dive, the ordinal version was apparently pretty rough.

In general I'm trying to keep an eye out for smaller, under the radar releases right now.

I don't know if it counts, but I'm looking forward to Sonic Mania Plus. The new characters will definitely get me to replay the game, and the artbook will get me to buy another physical copy. :lol:

Ys Origin is legit. The best of the "modern" Ys games by an absolutely huge margin.

I'm actually looking forward to some upcoming releases!
Code of Princess EX
Fallen Legion: Rise to Glory
Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom
Octopath Traveler
Shining Resonance Re:frain
Sonic Mania Plus
Yoshi


All Switch; it'll be nice to just focus on one console.

Yes, a new Shining game!

I got really excited thinking that the 1991 Yoshi was coming to Switch when I just read your list. I think I’m the only person who’d be dispappointed after realizing it’s a brand new Yoshi game.
