January 2025's MOST ANTICIPATED Games You Won't Want to Miss!

[@ACGreviews]

Just a nice groups of games in January to look forward to with some honorable mentions. And I missed Asseto and its new one which looks fine as hell. So consider this an honorable mention. You guys rock and big thanks to the patrons for helping out with some of the games on the list and some ideas. Recorded this one while on a trip so ignore any audio uniqueness. Hold tight for a wicked XMAS and come on inside if you want to here about more inside baseball on games, play some stream some and hang out. www.patreon.com/c/AngryCentaurGaming

Also remember to check out the @bestgamingpodcast channel for friday podcasts.

[@rofflesvanwagon]

I'm really looking forward to streets of rogue 2, that demo is so much fun and the developer said it's a rough old build and much more features are in the current version. I doubt a January release but I'm still very stoked

[@protegegamer1895]

Which one you most excited to play ?

[@klawless]

You say "ignore any audio uniqueness". I interpret this as, listen out for any audio uniqueness.

[@mufasafalldown8401]

This type of video needs chapters

[@strange144]

Especially with the first quarter essentially yet another fight Nazis game.

[@warpkari]

Amazing unmissable games of January 😀

[@DM-qd7gw]

Playing the backlog...which everyone should be doing imo

@DM-qd7gw I want to be but gonna be working in January

[@ThePorkchopExpress975]

i have 1000s of games in the backlog lol including fallout 3, skyrim, witcher 3

[@DM-qd7gw]

@@ThePorkchopExpress975 Then why are you on here talking to me. Get to work buddy. Legendary games are waiting for you. Also make sure you play your souls games at least once per year

[@mr.smellgood2794]

I understand you collecting but man but please start playing all the top teir games bc tomorrow isn't promised ​. Im workingon my back log now and its noway i will finish them all lol @ThePorkchopExpress975

[@NickAsselberghs]

A lot of Path of Exile 2

[@walalon8719]

PoE 2 is life 😂

[@emrys3070]

Same here dawg, I'm playing an Ice Shot Ranger, you fellas?

[@deadcaptainjames6045]

its fun after 55 hours I'm done until they finish the campaign. poe endgame is not my jam at all

[@charliem5604]

PoE 2 has also consumed my life

[@bromanchoo9863]

POE2!!! *chants* Grenade Gemling Mercenary with emphasis on poison / fire. Alt character being a witch

[@DemonKez]

When you put a racing car as your preview image... but have no racing game in your video >.>

[@FatalAlcatraz]

Bruh...

[@shippedged2750]

Assetto Corsa EVO is coming in January early access. Maybe he doesn't mention early access games but this is a pretty big racing game.

[@DarkLordConri]

Currently going through Kingdom Come Deliverance for the first time and having a blast. Can't believe I sat on this game for years.

[@deadcaptainjames6045]

playing Indiana Jones. such a cool game that really surprised me

[@shweenz]

Same. Feels pretty old-school with how it doesn't hold hands, but still has some QoL stuff from modern games.

[@grundged]

Path of Exlie 2 for the holidays. Also finishing up Black Myth Wukong.

[@larsjespersen6936]

Just finished Stellar Blade and now moved on to Resident Evil: Revelations 2.

[@solidkwon]

Try to find a co-op partner for Revelations 2. That game is designed around having a 2nd player who may not be as good at gaming as the first player

[@ProbablyLying]

Sniper Elite is a good trainer for the next generation of Luigi Mangiones. All jokes aside, looks cool. Also interested in Eternal Strands.

[@petervernon7733]

I’m playing Black Myth Wukong and Stellablade thanks for heads up on the January releases

[@Brekner]

Been playing "Living with sister: Monochrome fantasy" , it's incredible! One of the best games of 2024 for sure! And now I'm playing "Volcano Princess", another real banger. Both titles sitting comfortably at "Overwhelmingly Positive" with 97% upvotes.

[@Roostapha]

Thank you, Karla for all your hard work. Wishing you and yours a wonderful Christmas!

[@Kiryu_Kazuma01]

Working my through the Yakuza series, slowly. I’m currently on Yakuza 7: Like a Dragon and loving it. Just beat Judgment, so I’m now splitting my time between Path of Exile 2 and Y7

[@Dillon_J]

no multiplayer or character creator for the new Dynasty Warriors has me less interested given its price tag. Probably be a wait for me.

[@arkasiawinters]

Yeah it turned the game into a no buy for me. I was really excited for it too

[@Fillmore.Pockets]

Sniper Elite Resistance, Citizen Sleeper 2, and Eternal Strands all in Game Pass Day 1 🔥🔥🔥 Definitely buying the Atomic Heart DLC. 2025 is foing to be insane, especially if we get GTA6

[@justrok79]

One more for those interested, but Virtua Fighter 5 REVO, an updated and rebalanced port to Virtua Fighter 5 which came out in 2006, is finally coming to PC. There hasn't been an official release of Virtua Fighter on PC since VF2 in 1994. No longer restricted to being just a Yakuza title mini game it's releasing with 4K resolution at 60fps with marvelous rollback netcode. It enjoyed an online Beta about a week and a half ago and I found it to be very much what I've been asking for from Sega. This is also a gear up to the eventual release of Virtua Fighter 6 hopefully in 2026 while no hard release details have been announced. The base game will be $15 and a 30th anniversary collector's edition will be available for $40 and releases January 27th.

[@Hilversumborn]

YS Memoire, Freedom Wars and Dynasty Warriors Origins are on my radar.

[@jonahbogacki3017]

Personally, I'm excited for Synduality.

[@Scarecr0wn]

After about 120 hours in PoE I got back to Ready or Not to replay older stuff and check new ones. Also replaying Detroit and downloaded Sifu to finally give it a go (yup, Secret Level episode was cool). After Detroid I would love to finally finish Signalis. My January number 1 is definitely Citizen Sleeper, absolutely loved the first one.

[@landsbyreview3420]

Been sucked into Enshrouded with some friends. It's surprisingly good and well optimized for an early acces game.

[@ACGreviews]

Good game. I actually enjoyed my time with that one alot

[@visionxx5724]

Indiana Jones so fire! Amazing game and extremely fun. Xbox got a gem right there

[@albertthewisecrow]

Dynasty Warriors Origins looks good I can’t wait for that one, by the way have you played Gori Cuddly Carnage? Keep up the great work ACG and happy Holidays.

[@JohnCesareMarcher]

sorry for your loss dude x

[@gamernippel]

crazy good reviews lol.... you rock

[@LARSTAKA-666]

I am playing Mafia definitive edition. I am loving it. Sad I didnt play it sooner.

[@VicariousVoid]

Sniper elite games are always a good time, looking forward to that, excited for Rebirth on PC will definitely double dip with that one. Cautiously optimistic for eternal strands cause it reminds me a lot of fenyx rising.

[@RicochetForce]

I really hope the FFVII Rebirth port is better than the embarassingly barebones Remake one.

[@Otis151]

Are you planning on doing a review of Eternal Strands? Looks interesting.

[@gregoryshinn9805]

Thanks for the video

[@ACGreviews]

You bet

[@MrTheDarkKnightFan]

Currently playing Jedi survivor on ea play & will move on to complete Alan wake 2 in January

[@DrRhomboid_Goatcabin]

I would been excited for a new sniper elite game if it wasnt for the complete disaster that was sniper elite 5. Plus i'm concerned about any new game that still has ps4 version in 2025.

[@KnoxAgain]

Just got a new controller to replace one that's had stick drift for quite a while. I've just been jumping around my backlog and trying a bunch of different games.

[@eiadtarabulsi]

Damned good way to do the xmas

I dont plan on getting any games between now and feb i have a lot in the backlog. Im playing delta force and ufc5 at the min so bits of pc and ps5 pro, i plan to get civ 7 l, kingdom come deliverance 2, Ac shadows, im going to get them on ps5 pro so i can have a physical copy of them and play them and either keep them in my collection or sell them one day

[@xGryfter]

Most of my game time is being split between Path of Exile 2 and Dying Light 2.

[@thomashooper2451]

Eternal Strands looks like it could be good, but it's a coin toss for me right now. My big picks for January are Mark of the Deep, Morkull Ragast's Rage, and Blade Chimera. All three of them had demos that really charmed me. I'm also looking forward to the early access for Hyper Light Breaker even if 'm trying not to buy half-finished games anymore. I know I should hold out for the 1.0 release, but it looks so cool.

[@spooner7637]

So god damn excited for rebirth on PC

[@XBOXisWeakAF]

dont forget to kiss Sony feets lol

[@TheArtist808]

I loved the 1st Citizen Sleeper. Good to see it back

[@shadowweaver1599]

I'm very excited for sniper elite resistance. But playing many different games. Fall of avalon I just started playing and having a great time. Man eternal strands looks interesting and it's a day one game pass I'm so in.

Putting most of my gameplay time into Witchfire What a great game Loving it !

[@lobster7799]

I just couldn’t get into Spider-Man 2 like I did with the first one. The game just couldn’t grab me after multiple attempts. Dynasty Warriors looks cool and thought the demo was pretty good. Hopefully the final product is good.

Currently playing Final Fantasy 2 and Slay the Spire. Interested in Ys Memoire in January.

“Everyone but the Switch”. Hope the Switch 2 will end this trend soon.

Sniper Elite Resistance and Assetto Corsa EVO (EA) for me.

AC could be GREAT!

[@13nohead]

Right on man. Right now I'm enjoying path of exile 2 and a replay of XCOM 2. Man that game never gets old. XCOM 3 needs to happen. That Phoenix point game was truly disappointing

[@Cold_Zero_The_Wise]

Ghost of Yotei and Expedition 33 are tha Games im looking forward to, Red Dead Redemption 2. Im playing this month for rhe first time

[@edmundmondo1682]

I can't wait to play Spiderman 2 and FFVII Rebirth!! As I get older and older the wait to play upcoming games is literally killing me...

[@MasterJangleLeg]

As someone who also exclusively plays games on PC i agree can't wait either. I've just finished FF 7 Remake to be ready for it.

I’m actually enjoying stalker 2 Last night I accidentally advanced the plot by randomly finding a character I needed but skipping the quest chain just by pure random exploration. Is it hard? Yes. Is it unfair sometimes? Also yes. Am I enjoying it? Oh hell yeah.

[@ptkewl]

Didn't know a new sniper elite was coming. Awesome!

[@Elwaves2925]

Spidey 2 for me with a slight possibility of Space Engineers 2 if it seems decent enough with it's early access. Honestly though, I plan on picking up Stalker 2 because I put it off with Flight Sim releasing.

Looks like the best dynasty warriors game since 4, maybe ever

In March The watcher update will come and its been updated constantly with added new tutorial tipps, steam workshop support for mods from the community and much much more. Tough but I do love it, i been there and done that but this one is special for sure. Highly Recommend it. I tried to see if you covered it but i couldnt find any video. I tend to always take your advice into consideration on games as we are about the same age and have a similar taste plus i like your videos as they are quite entertaining rather than boring like most other game reviewers on youtube.
