Hogwarts Legacy leads the charge for games due out in February 2023, but that’s not the only big title scheduled for this month.
The first half of the year is known to have few videogame releases, but 2023 may want to reverse the trend. January saw big releases like Forspoken and Hi-Fi Rush, and February looks to be no less.
With several titles from hugely popular franchises and IPs, there really is something for everyone as this month begins. Without further ado then, here are the best games releasing in February 2023.
Deliver Us Mars
The sequel to Deliver Us The Moon, Deliver Us Mars is an atmospheric sci-fi adventure. Set ten years after the original, the game sees humanity (even more) on the brink of extinction as they travel from Earth to Mars and battle rough seabeds to find the resources that will save our species.
Deliver Us Mars is out February 2 for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PC
Hogwarts Legacy
Set hundreds of years before the Harry Potter story, Hogwarts Legacy will allow players to experience the life of Hogwarts students. It will be possible to wander the corridors of the school of magic, participate in lessons and decide whether to be good or bad. There won’t be the protagonists of the Harry Potter story, for a pure matter of timeline, but you will still be able to see characters made famous by the books here and there.
Hogwarts Legacy is out February 10 for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S
Wild Hearts
Wild Hearts is a new hunting game inspired by Monster Hunter and set in a fantasy version of feudal Japan. In the game, players can team up with a group of friends to take down monstrous creatures and help each other out. The title bears the signature of the same development team that created Toukiden, so expectations are far from low.
Wild Hearts is out February 17 for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S
Atomic Heart
Atomic Heart is an FPS set in a world where the Soviet Union has become a super power after winning World War II. There are robots hidden in every corner of the city, and the crafting system will allow you to create improvised weapons on the fly. The fights will present a variety of possibilities, including psychic, melee and ranged attacks.
Atomic Heart is out February 21 for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One
Like A Dragon: Were!
Based on real Japanese history, Like A Dragon: Ishin! takes the characters from the Yakuza series to the Edo period. Kazuma Kiryu will make his return after leaving the main saga in the turn-based RPG Like A Dragon, and it is already sending all fans into jujube soup.
