If everything goes as promised, 2022 will be a year to frame in the history of the video games. 365 days in which all of the major agencies intend to deploy massive artillery. Something that will surely establish the future generation of consoles and present PC gamers with new reasons to release graphics and mice.
To which must be added re-releases that should not be overlooked, such as Advance Wars 1 + 2: Re-Boot Camp, the new generation editions of GTA V, and Cyberpunk 2077. PC versions of great games like God of War, Monster Hunter Rise, or Uncharted 4, and the return of some saga on Switch.
Sometimes I feel blessed to be born in 20 century and feel bad for 19s human beings, you ask why?. Well, that is because that time game improving rates are slower and graphics look horrible. Check yourself here- 10 Games that changed the graphics forever | 20 years before
In fact, if we look closely at the plans for each desktop system we come to a conclusion: 2022 could not be more promising:
Nintendo will bring Mario back with the Rabbids. We will see Kirby’s most ambitious adventure, and we will be able to play with the intrepid and colorful Inklings of Splatoon. The new big Pokémon adventure, and the long-awaited return of Hyrule’s hero.
Sony will unleash its console vendors flagged by Katos, with Aloy or the new numbered installment of Gran Turismo while strengthening its catalog of exclusives with titles of the caliber of Forspoken.
Microsoft, for its part, will gain muscle with the two great Bethesda exclusives: Stanfield and Redfall. And, already set, the value of the Game Pass will still increase with highly anticipated games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl or Scorn.
2022 looks great. Too much. Precisely for this reason, at Spoilerlife we wanted to gather all our team gamers in one place. An article that we will evolve little by little throughout the year as dates are confirmed, the news is announced, and also in case of delays. Save it to your favorites list, what is coming is serious!
A list exclusively focused on the new releases and in which we have not included annual sagas (such as FIFA or NBA 2K) or re-releases and remakes in favor of offering a photograph of all the games for which we will remember 2022 in years to come.
And, as you will see just below, there is a whole array of console vendors and highly anticipated releases that, in addition, want to be a must.
Without further ado, here are the best console and PC video games we’ll be playing in 2022.
1. A Plague Tale: Requiem
A Plague Tale: Innocence is much more than a video game: it is one of those stories that leave their mark. Amicia and her brother Hugo will once again face the horrors of the European Middle Ages to show that, in the video game industry, even the simplest of studios can measure up to the titans when the right thing is done.

2. ARK II
The sequel to Ark Survival Evolved has set out to carry the torch in terms of sandbox experiences and next-generation survival, and the ambassador that has been sought is serious business: Vin Diesel himself will participate in this installment, distributing tollinas and capons all over the world. that comes to the step.
- Date: To be determined
- Where to play: PC, and Xbox Series X / S.
3. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
Avatar 2 will hit theaters at the end of next year, but James Cameron’s new popcorn blockbuster will not be the only foray we will make in the exotic Pandora: Ubisoft, Massive Entertainment and Disney itself will put us in the shoes of a Na ‘I saw in a new generation proposal focused on action and fantasy.
- Date: To be determined
- Where to play: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X / S, and Google Stadia.
4. Bayonetta 3
The return of the intrepid Bayonetta has been much to be expected, but living up to the two best Hack’n Slash from PlatinumGames takes time. We hope that Bayonetta 3 is a full stop within the action genre, and we will not settle for less.
- Date: To be determined
- Where to play: Nintendo Switch
5. Dead space
EA’s horror and science fiction saga return with a remake of the original Dead Space adapted to the characteristics and possibilities of new generation systems, and that automatically makes this project a safe bet for Survival fans. Horror.

- Where to play: PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X / S.
6. Devil Immortal
We may run out of Diablo IV in 2022, but the imminent big rollout of all of Blizzard’s sagas on mobile devices is imminent: Diablo Immortal will seek to bring the ARPG experience that established its chair to iOS and Android. With a well-planned multiplayer and a decent control system, it can be the bell.
- Date: First half of 2022
- Where to play: iOS and Android
7. Dragon Ball: The Breakers
- Date: To be determined
- Where to play: PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Switch.
We’ve gotten used to launching a Dragon Ball game every year, but Dragon Ball: The Breakers has caught the entire planet off guard: following the Dead By Daylight formula, Bandai Namco proposes an asymmetric survival game in which, as simple earthlings, we must escape alive from the greatest villains that Son Goku has faced.
8. Dying Light 2 Stay Human
- Date: February 4
- Where to play: PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X / S. Also Cloud version for Nintendo Switch
Action and survival in its purest form. The sequel to Dying Light proposes we face all the dangers of a zombie dystopia with parkour movements and using practically everything in sight as a weapon. And beware, Techland will launch it on all its systems, including a version for Switch that will take advantage of the game in the cloud.
9. Elden ring
- Date: February 25
- Where to play: PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X / S, and Xbox One.
When FromSoftware has a new game in hand, it is inevitable to think of three things: a universe of darkness, a Machiavellian difficulty, and an extraordinary gaming experience. In Elden Ring, in addition, they dare to take all of the above to an open world whose history has been imagined by the author of Game of Thrones and A Dance of Swords. Juan already said it after playing his beta thoroughly: candidate for GOTY.
