13 Video Games Coming In 2017 That You Won’t Want To Miss

Thank God 2016 is over, eh? Notable video game releases aside, it's better if we move forward and forget the tragedy that was the past twelve months, burying our head in the nearest console and forgetting that the world has gone mad. To help rid our brains of last year's memories, we've compiled a list of 10 video games that you need to start getting excited for this year.

5) Horizon: Zero Dawn

Platforms: PS4

Release Date: February 28

It’s hard to not be impressed by Horizon Zero Dawn in action. It just looks so beautiful. The robotic precision of its hulking machine beasts set to the backdrop of an untamed jungle is a jarring yet satisfying juxtaposition. Visually, it works.

For its unique vision and its beauty alone, Horizon deserves 5th place on this list. But will it succeed as a game? You know, with all the boring stuff you do in between gawking at the backdrops? That’s not a guarantee, and I’ve heard rumblings that it might not be as good as it looks.

But let’s put fears aside, shall we? With a big open world begging to be explored, Horizon will certainly be a visual feast, and one of the few games to truly warrant an upgrade to the PS4 Pro. New IPs are few and far between these days and I’ve yet to see one this artistically impressive. As Sony’s biggest exclusive of the year, let’s hope their faith in Guerrilla Games is repaid.
