2020 is finally here so let’s start marking our calendars of some of the upcoming titles slated to launch. There is already a ton of great anticipated video games which we have listed below. You will want to keep this page bookmarked as we’ll continue to update it with new video games as they are announced.

#20 Minecraft: Dungeons
  • Developer: Mojang
  • Publisher: Mojang
  • Platforms: PC
  • Release: 2020

A brand new game will be set in the world of Minecraft. Developed under Mojang, players can expect Minecraft: Dungeons to release at some point this year. Not too many details were given out so far but we know that this will be a dungeon crawling experience. Players will be able to join together and venture through new locations along with environments. It appears that Mojang is also bringing out new weapons and items for players to make use of when they start their adventure. Currently, there is no specific release date attached to the project yet, but we can expect to enjoy the game within this year for the PC. It’s uncertain if Mojang will have the game available on any other platforms, but we will, of course, keep track of the latest when more details are released to the public.

#19 Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2

  • Developer: Ninja Theory
  • Publisher: Microsoft
  • Platforms: XSX, PC
  • Release: 2020
  • Co-op: TBA
  • Competitive Multiplayer: TBA

Hellblade Senuas Sacrifice is a psychological horror hack-and-slash title that follows Senua, a Pict warrior, who must venture into Helheim. Seeking to rescue the soul of her deceased lover, Senua will have to battle a series of otherworldly entities, but with our protagonist suffering from psychosis, the overall world, and venture into Helheim may be too much to handle.

It was during The Game Awards 2019 that a sequel was announced for the upcoming Xbox Series X.We didn’t get anything other than a rather great looking trailer so unfortunately there’s nothing we can share when it comes to the narrative or just what the premise is about.

#18 Ori And The Will Of The Wisps

  • Developer: Moon Studios
  • Publisher: Xbox Game Studios
  • Platforms: PC, XBO
  • Release: March 11, 2020
  • Co-op: N/A
  • Competitive Multiplayer: N/A

If you enjoyed the 2015 release of Ori and the Blind Forest then chances are you have Ori and the Will of the Wisps already on your radar. The game will take the role of Ori a white guardian spirit who decides to seek out the land that lays beyond the forest and along the way, we’ll uncover the truth of the lost ones. There’s still plenty of questions left unanswered, but we can expect the same mechanics from the first installment with platforming in a Metroidvania style map.

#17 Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

  • Developer: Ubisoft
  • Publisher: Ubisoft
  • Platforms: PC, PS4, XBO, XSX, PS5
  • Release: 2020
  • Co-op: N/A
  • Competitive Multiplayer: N/A

After the release of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, there was a year-long gap before we were going to receive the next installment. Now that we’re in 2020 we finally know where the Assassin’s Creed franchise is taking players next and it’s the Viking age. The video game follows a Viking expansion that is having to deal with several enemy forces. Information is a bit scarce still, but we do know that the game is taking place in Europe where there will be four different kingdoms to explore. Outside of the kingdoms, there’s also said to be some points of interest that you can visit such as Stonehenge.

We can also expect the use of naval combat as there has been footage showcasing different ships such as the old Viking longships that will help players navigate through the world. Additionally, there’s also a settlement that you’ll be able to build up and upgrade over time. We’re not sure just yet on what all will be involved with the settlement but it’s going to be a hub of sorts for players to continuously tweak. Gameplay will also likely follow the same style built up with from Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, but since we’re still waiting for gameplay footage, we are just having to wait and see.

#16 Marvel’s Avengers
  • Developer: Crystal Dynamics
  • Publisher: Square Enix
  • Platforms: Google Stadia, PC, PS4, XBO
  • Release: May 15, 2020
  • Co-op: Online Only 4 players
  • Competitive Multiplayer: N/A

Marvel’s Avengers is an upcoming video game being developed by Crystal Dynamics and Eidos Montreal. What we know so far is that the game will take place after the events of A-Day, an even in history in which the Avengers gather to showcase their new headquarters in San Francisco. During the event an accident causes the city to be destroyed causing all superheroes to be outlawed. Years passed after the Avengers disbanded when a new foe poses a possible threat against Earth leaving the Avengers to once again join forces and prevent the destruction of humanity.

This will be a third-person action video game title where players can take control of a variety of heroes as they progress through the narrative. Because there is an assortment of heroes with more being added in, you’ll find that the gameplay mechanics will change up offering a little bit of a diverse playstyle throughout the campaign. Players will also get the ability to go through a co-op campaign with up to four players total though it looks like local co-op will not be supported.
