It’s the first month of what’s set to be a bumper year. And while there’s no Last of Us 2 or Cyberpunk 2077 this month, there’s more than plenty to keep an eye on.
Update: 16/1: Added a suite of Switch titles and more mid-month announcements. Moons of Madness has been removed after the developers announced its console release would be delayed to March 24.
The biggest games are this week and next, with Monster Hunter Iceborne hitting PC and Kakarot, while Warcraft 3: Reforged will close out January. (Reforged launches January 28 internationally, but it won’t unlock until the morning of January 29 in Australia.) The Switch has a quiet month, although there’s Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore and an Oddworld game.
But there’s a lot of other notable entries too, from the totally-not-Pokemon MMO TemTem, a huge DLC drop for Total War: Three Kingdoms, Romance of the Three Kingdoms getting an English port, and the Atelier games next week. The Rusty Lake developers are also back with The White Door, which looks a treat. Cook, Serve, Delicious! 3 is due out this month as well, although it doesn’t have a specific launch date yet.
