I'm not really that excited about many 2018 games right now but maybe that'll change idk

RDR2/Dragon Ball/Monster Hunter will be cool I guess

I'm running a charity drive for hunger relief that gets people to act locally and rewards them with video games -- at least four of which are certifiably goon made.

If you are the type who risks going outdoors, this is the event for you. Also, if you make video games and want to contribute, please let me know. The event is roguelike themed but we'll throw any game up there if it gets folks fed, last year we had keys for Halo 5 so anything goes.

Here is a twitter link if you are the tweeting type and want to spread the word that way:

Xbox One comes out in 2018 right? That's exciting. It's been a two-horse race for so long now some new competition could do everyone good.

Sonic Mania owns but I didn't grow up playing Sonic so the gameplay feels alien. This is not how platformers usually operate!

Once you get used to it it's great, though. Love to finally experience Sonic, and on a Nintendo system.

I don't really follow the Yakuza games but their output seems crazy. Isn't that the third game to come out in like 12 months?

these games all came out years ago in Japan, there's just been a recent push to bring the series back to the west after an extended lull

Yeah I really enjoy the game this is just an entirely new world of platforming physics.

Also the game is really adorable

I can only hope this will usher in the final end of the AAA game industry, their corpses cannibalized by the AA and indie devs to create a new paradigm.

Ni no Kuni II might be good, and I think Dragon Quest XI's western release will be at some point in 2018.

Other than that there's Far Cry 5, I guess? Eh. Also supposedly a Fire Emblem game on Switch, though who knows if the west will see that in 2018.

Dad of War might be all right, there's that PS4 zombie game that's been in development hell forever and looks kind of eh, then that other PS4 zombie game that's been in development hell forever and might get pushed back to 2019.

I'm also unreasonably excited for that papercraft Yoshi games based on the art style alone. Nintendo still have to reveal their plans for next year so that should be interesting.

Oh yeah and the first episode of Life is Strange 2 is supposed to release in 2018! I guess we have to hold off the collapse of civilization for at least one more year (or 1.5 given Dontnod's development cycles).
