I’m most looking forward to Pokemon Sword/Shield. Been playing Pokemon games since the original Pokemon Yellow and I won’t be resting until I catch em all!
NHL 20 by EA Sports on Xbox.
Have always liked the game and it keeps getting better with more options and new players every year.
Marvel’s Avengers: A-Day of Square Enix ! It will be released in May 2020 but I can’t wait for it as it will be released on console and PC. With it’s coop adventures and the new cross-platform possibilities by sony and microsoft coming along I can’t wait to play with my friend !!!
Xbox project scarlett by Microsoft
Can’t wait to have this new console, it will definetely change the games.
Cyberpunk from Projekt red for sure. Love how the game is depicting the future.
I know it’s coming out April of next year, but Cyberpunk 2077 and Keanu Reeves have me most excited for the future of gaming! Additionally, I am really looking forward to Ghost Recon Breakpoint and squaring off against Jon Bernthal in October!
Final Fantasy 7 Remake and the announcement of Final Fantasy 8 getting the HD upgrade was enough to blow my mind. What an exciting time to be a gamer, especially when you’re old enough to appreciate how far the industry has come.
Easily looking forward to FF7 Remake. I’ve been looking forward to this game for what feels like most of my adult life and by the time I get my preorder, my own child should be old enough to share in the magic.
I’m really looking forward to play Death Stranding by Kojima Productions for the PS4. There’s so much unknown about it, but I’m totally sold and trust Kojima will deliver.
For sure final Fantasy 7 on the PS4 it’s going to be awesome
I am so excited for the FF 7 remake from Square Enix. To be able to play has cloud again is going to be amazing!
No point picking one game when Microsoft’s new Game Pass for PC has a huge library to pick from for $6 a month… that’s like paying the price of one new release per year!
PlayStation 5 news from Sony. More power!
That’s easy, Elden Ring by Bandai Namco/FromSoftware, because I live and breathe the Dark Souls/Bloodborne games and Game of Thrones is my all time favorite TV show, combining the two creators for a new game IP blew my mind!
Cyberpunk 2077 by CD Projekt Red, because Keanu is breathtaking and he thinks we’re all breathtaking as well.
It’s definitely Cyberpunk 2077 from CD Project. Not just the tech but they actually got JOHN WICK in it like damn!! How can they upscale it more with so beautiful graphics and visuals. Finally getting that in PS4 is epic!
I am most excited for the next generation of xbox. Although details are scarce I am still excited by the possibilities it can hold. Watching the Microsoft E3 conference gave me a feeling of nostalgia when I learned that the new Halo will be a launch title. The first Halo game was the reason I bought my original Xbox. I only hope this new tech blows us all away just like the original did.
I am no fan boy for a particular gaming system, I go where the games are.
Cyberpunk 2077 from CD Project, hands down! I’ve been a fan of Cyberpunk & Shadowrun since the 80s and played the pen & paper for countless hours. Getting a chance to play on the PS4 is going to be awesome. The trailer looks wicked and Keanu ist just the icing on the cake 🙂
The announcement that has gotten me the most excited so far has got to be Microsoft’s Project Scarlet. This new console is set to be four times more powerful than the Xbox One X, and even has ray tracing. I don’t even know what that means but it sounds exciting to me! It’s even set to launch with a brand new entry in the Halo universe. Can’t wait to pick one up from Best Buy as soon as it comes out!
I was honestly most excited about the Pokemon Direct and the recent reminder of Link’s Awakening for the Switch

I’m stoked for cyberpunk 2077. Loved the old shadow gate game.
I’m looking forward to the new Ghost Recon. I cut my MP teeth on the first one, and have played pretty much every Tom Clancy game. I can’t wait to see what’s in store with Breakpoint. Hopefully Ubisoft doesn’t cut n paste with this one.
I’m looking forward to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order because I am the greatest Star Wars fan
Bethesda Conference
Tango Gameworks
Ghostwire Tokyo
The game looks really cool, the style and art is mesmerizing. I’m excited for a new horror action game and since the studio made The Evil Within they definitely have the right experience. I’m really hoping more comes out about it soon.

I’m really excited for the official release date of Final Fantasy VII Remake. The original FFVII was my first PlayStation game and I feel in love with the series.

It’s a rework of the original game, changing the graphics and gameplay mechanics.
