December is an efficient time for brand new video games—the highest half of the world is further darkish and chilly, and now we have day without work—however nobody desires to spend the vacations engaged on bug fixes, so it is also a dangerous time to launch new video games. It’s normal for late-in-the-year video games to be delayed into the brand new 12 months (stolen to feed February’s bottomless urge for food), making December a little bit of a wild card month.

Marvel’s Midnight Suns turned out to be bizarre and enjoyable, the legendary Dwarf Fortress is lastly getting graphics and tutorials, and though we’re unsure but how a lot we’ll like The Callisto Protocol, I can inform you that it will be tremendous gross, so should you wind up with a brand new GPU over the vacations you may have one thing to place its icky gore rendering capabilities to work on.
Additionally this month: A brand new house colony sim, an FPS from the co-creator of Rick and Morty, and the 2022 Recreation Awards. Here is what to stay up for:
