All major summer gaming showcases have concluded, giving us a comprehensive look at upcoming releases throughout the next year. Throughout IGN's Summer of Gaming, we've witnessed thrilling announcements - from Resident Evil Requiem's debut at Summer Game Fest (launching February 2024) to Clockwork Revolution's explosive Xbox Games Showcase reveal (release date TBA).
The past weeks' dozen-plus presentations catered to diverse gaming tastes: Wholesome Direct delighted cozy gamers, Warhammer Skulls energized grimdark enthusiasts, while PlayStation's State of Play and Xbox's showcase satisfied first-party fans. Now comes the challenging task: evaluating these major reveals.
We've curated the season's 25 most significant titles based on trailer views, social buzz, and editorial enthusiasm, organizing them into a tiered ranking system. Your input determines their placement - S-tier denotes must-play excitement, D-tier indicates lackluster prospects, with gradations between.
Several contenders clearly deserve S-tier consideration. Resident Evil Requiem dominated as the most-viewed trailer, with hands-on previews confirming its high potential. Invincible VS impresses as both a dynamic tag-team fighter and faithful comic adaptation. 007: First Light dazzled with cinematic flair - but can gameplay match its Bond-film aesthetics?
Other titles provoke tougher calls. Capcom's long-awaited Pragmata finally surfaced - does it meet expectations? Bloober Team's Silent Hill remake announcement generated buzz despite zero footage, given their Silent Hill 2 remake success. Double Fine's mysterious Keeper - a sentient lighthouse simulator - kept gameplay details ambiguous in its reveal. These complex evaluations await your judgment.
Explore more Summer of Gaming coverage, including our most anticipated titles and this month's IGN First spotlight on Dying Light: The Beast.
