Control Resonant is gonna be a massive flop. Remedy's games just don't sell. I wouldn't be surprised if this next flop leads to layoffs or them getting bought out.

Yeah, I don't see it selling well in general but in such close proximity to other titles? No chance.

This may be an unpopular opinion but Control wasn't very good. It's got quite a vibe and atmosphere, but that's really it. Max Payne 1 and 2 are great but Remedy is extremely overrated.

Also the character models in Resonant looks like shit. The main character looks like a completely different person then the art and it's like they took the face of a 250lb person and put it on a 175lb person.

Almost every game shown at State of Play that's coming out this year is set to release in September. Some even on a same day. I get that they all want to move away from GTA 6, but that was a bit over the top.

@ thx Victhemic for the list.

Yep. 9 day one for me titles. Would be 10 if PB ends up being legit.

Idk how the fuck I'm supposed to play all this.

 

[KanKamAndNob]

Those people are professionally miserable

Or maybe some people don't just mindlessly glaze whatever is placed in front of them.

 

[March Climber]

Oh god...Control...Remedy is truly cooked.

I'm similarly worried about Onimusha.

Onimusha will be buried 6ft under again as a franchise if Capcom doesn't see the right sales number.

So insanely bold (or brave and dumb) of them to release Onimusha on that date.

 

[yogaflame]

Gta6 scares allot of game developers, I wonder why?

 

[NeverYouMind]

Maybe for the mass market audience but I can enjoy Control Resonant and Nioh 3 DLC just fine.

 

[MrRibeye]

Everyone trying to get their projects out the door before gta 6 hits in November

Control and Oni should slide into August. Ezpz.

 

[Judge Magister]

Have a hunch this will be the biggest sleeper hit. Wukong level hit.

I have my eyes on this game but i'm not sold yet.

It could be really awesome and standout or just be another Wuchang; Khazan whatever.

 

[Northeastmonk]

I wonder if Phantom Blade will do better than Beast of Reincarnation. It's a wild couple months. Are they hoping for good release word of mouth cause that's a lot of money. I don't even want to buy all those at $70 a pop. A few I'm going to wait for a sale.

 

[Kerotan]

23rd Oct COD MW4

Microsoft's ps5 showcase in 5 days will probably add gears of war to September/October. And who knows about halo remake and Forza 6 ps5 edition.

 

[Bondo]

Yes and no
I only need 2-3 of those day one.

Gotta get em in before GTA.

 

[HRK69]

Or maybe some people don't just mindlessly glaze whatever is placed in front of them.

I love how you think there are only two options

@ thx Victhemic for the list.

I'll play Blood of Dawnwalker, Warhammer and Control. The rest you'd have to pay me to play. I don't want them.

@ thx Victhemic for the list.

Phantom Blade has been delayed to October.

Halloween the Game? LOL

Wolverine is more Sony slop

WTF is Trials in the Sky

Warhammer only interesting for RTS players

Dune is a boring MMO thats been out for ages on PC

SH looks great
Control meh another Remedy flop incoming bet my avatar on it for a year
Onimusha will be a sales flop for Capcom, but will review well around 8ish

DYNASTY WARRIORS LOL

Rayman remade with an uglier artstyle

AC8 looks great but only appeals to Flight Combat fans

Star Wars Galactic Racer could be very fun, but I doubt it will sell gangbusters.

COD MW4 will be a sales giant obscuring anything else on this list.

Not sure it will be a bloodbath at all.

 

[Buggy Loop]

Xbox + Nintendo shows will again add to the list

 

[manlisten]

Control into Phantom Blade for me. The rest can wait

 

[coachmcguirk91]

Gears of War E-Day is rumored for mid to late September as well. I have feeling they may move to early October

 

[Danjin44]

WTF is Trials in the Sky

 

[Omnipunctual Godot]

Shit, can Remedy ever catch a break?

 

[TKOFromTokyo]

Meh, Onimusha and possibly MW4 are the only ones that I will buy.

 

[KyoZz]

Dawn of War IV, Control, Rayman & SW: Galactic Racer are sure pick for me and there is other games too not releasing in September.

The full second half of this year is PACKED as f and I love it.

 

[JayK47]

Well you don't have to collect them all.

 

[Ironman_Bad]

Single player glory all around!! This is what we asked for! Ps5 is about to be cooooking

 

[poppabk]

I'm surprised no-one has decided to be counter-programming for people who don't really care about GTA.

 

[gpn]

So far I'm in for...

- 17 Sep: Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter
- 24 Sep: Control Resonant
- 02 Oct: Ace Combat 8
- 06 Oct: STAR WARS: Galactic Racer™

I'm not interested in GTA 6, so I should have plenty of time for these.

Hopefully Nintendo goes easy in the Fall, but I'm guessing they'll have one or two titles I'll be interested in.

 

[Kadve]

03 sep: The Blood of Dawnwalker
08 sep: Halloween: The Game
17 sep: Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter
17 sep: Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War IV
...
06 oct : STAR WARS: Galactic Racer™

New EA Sporta FC (FIFA) is also expected late september

 

[FoxMcChief]

Expect most to be delayed.

 

[pqueue]

I'm surprised no-one has decided to be counter-programming for people who don't really care about GTA.

you mean PC only players?

 

[Durin]

Yep, I thought the same thing after the show...like why cluster September like that?

I'm actually hoping some of these games delay themselves into November, or if they're THAT afraid of GTA6...just delay to late January.

Some of these games even if they're good are gonna hurt their chances, especially if they have less hype up to launch.

 

[consoul]

Easy. Just buy Onimusha.

 

[MatrixReloaded101]

They are all running from GTA 6 and Call of Duty….

At this rate, most of what Xbox will show will be releasing next year. Unless they move some games up to July and August.

 

[Johnny Concrete]

Control Resonant! Everything else is second choice for me.

 

[Aurelius]

Looking forward to the sales in 2027.

 

[Gamer79]

Maybe I am old but ops list looks mostly like shit to me.

 

[HerjansEagleFeeder]

Yeah DW looks somewhat interesting and maybe Galactic Racer.

 

[Exentryk]

- 03 Sep The Blood of Dawnwalker
- 24 Sep: SH Town falls
- 25 Sep: Onimusha
- 29 Oct: Phantom Blade

Should work out fine for me, but Onimusha will lose out. But yeah, no reason for everything to release in Sep/Oct.

 

[poodaddy]

Blood of Dawnwalker will be great.

Nothing else there for me.

 

[cireza]

Slightly interested by the Star Wars racer game but that's it. Not buying it full price anyway.

 

[Sintoid]

Publishers are really stupid making war each other when they could manage launch windows and distribute games along the whole year

 

[ElFenomeno]

Dawnwalker, Onimusha and Phantom Blade for me.

 

[Baemono]

I'm only interested in Wolverine, Control, Phantom Blade, Dune and Rayman so I'm fine

 

[Laptop1991]

Just Dawnwalker on my shopping list.

 

[Spyxos]

Phantom Blade has been delayed to October.

Not sure it will be a bloodbath at all.

For some games it will be. Remedy is already struggling and is barely hanging on. Releasing Control this September would be practically suicide for them.

Onimusha has always sold rather poorly, so it's actually a bit of a surprise that there's a new installment at all. I am happy that there is, but the timing is again really bad.

"The Blood of Dawnwalker" seems to be the game generating the most buzz out of those 3. But it's a new studio and a new IP. Who knows how good it will really turn out to be. And whether it just gets lost in the masses.
