A few games that were originally slated to release in 2022 have already been delayed. Bethesda, for example, announced delays for Starfield and Redfall. Breath of the Wild 2 was also previously scheduled to release in 2022 but is now scheduled to arrive in spring 2023.
Regardless of the delays, 2022 is set to deliver plenty of new content for Xbox gamers. It may not be the year of the sequel to the critically acclaimed Breath of the Wild series, but it’s still a good time to play new games on Xbox. ARK 2 got pushed to 2023, The game is set on an alien planet with dinosaurs. Humans must learn to survive off the land while working together to take down the dinosaurs.
Forza Motorsport: This long-awaited reboot of the classic racing franchise will take advantage of Xbox Series XS consoles, and will feature dynamic light and car damage, real-time ray tracing, and overhauled physics.
If you’re looking for a new game to play, Xbox Game Pass is a great place to start. The service will include up to seven new games for a single month. This is an excellent deal, and Microsoft is continually adding new titles for its subscription service. The subscription service usually adds two waves of games each month. In August, subscribers will have access to two day-one releases as well as a massive AAA game currently available in stores.
