The Most Anticipated Games of 2023
Elden Ring: Shadow of Erdtree
First up on our list is a much anticipated DLC for Elden Ring, the latest from FromSoftware, the renowned developers of the "Dark Souls" series. The hype train has been rolling since Elden Ring came out in February 2022, and it continues for Elden Ring: Shadow of Erdtree.
This sprawling RPG promises players an awe-inspiring world full of discovery and excitement, fast-paced battles as fluid as they are thrilling, and a narrative shaped by George R.R. Martin himself (the author behind "Game of Thrones").
The Open Beta for MultiVersus, the all-new free-to-play platform fighter videogame from Player First Games, is now available to download and play for free on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PS4, PS5, and PC in the Americas, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand, with full cross-play support and dedicated server-based rollback netcode for robust online competition.
MultiVersus brings together a variety of beloved heroes and personalities to team up with or compete against in epic battles, including Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and Harley Quinn (DC); Shaggy and Velma (Scooby-Doo); Bugs Bunny and Tasmanian Devil a.k.a. Taz (Looney Tunes); Arya Stark (Game of Thrones); Tom & Jerry (Tom and Jerry); Jake the Dog and Finn the Human (Adventure Time); Steven Universe and Garnet (Steven Universe); Iron Giant (The Iron Giant); LeBron James (Space Jam: A New Legacy); Rick Sanchez and Morty Smith (Rick and Morty); an extraordinary original creature named Reindog; and many more to come.
Featuring matches with a strong focus on cooperative gameplay, every fighter is outfitted with a deep set of combat mechanics that distinguish the game’s fresh take on 2 vs. 2 gameplay. This allows combatants to boast customizable movesets that combine dynamically with other characters as they battle for supremacy. From Wonder Woman and her Lasso of Truth attack unexpectedly paired with Shaggy and his sandwich projectile, to Arya Stark’s face-swapping ability complementing Superman’s laser vision, the impossible can become possible through surprising team combinations and matchups.

There, at the crossroads of the past and present clashing inside his mind, he must not only fight for his survival but also contemplate his entire life and the choices he’s made along the way. South of the Circle’s cinematic story is set during the Cold War era of the 1960s and brought to life thanks to a star-studded voice-acting cast, including Anton Lesser (“Game of Thrones”, “Star Wars: Andor”), Gwilym Lee (“Bohemian Rhapsody”), Olivia Vinall (“The Woman in White”), Richard Goulding (“The Crown”), Adrian Rawlins (“Chernobyl”), and Michael Fox (“Downton Abbey”).
Multiplayer first person slasher Chivalry 2 is now available worldwide for Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and PC.
Chivalry 2is a multiplayer ego slasher inspired by epic medieval movie battles. Players will be thrust into the action of every iconic moment of the era - from clashing swords to storms of flaming arrows to sprawling sieges and much more. Players rule vast battlefields as catapults tear the earth apart, castles are besieged by them, villages set on fire and ragged peasants go into battle to win Team Objective cards.
Chivalry 2 improves on the original genre that its predecessor Chivalry: Medieval Warfarehas defined. It invites players to master the blades with a brand new and improved combat system that combines real-time strikes and an awesome combo system.
