The 8 Biggest Games to Look Forward to in 2020

Although 2019 did not have that many blockbuster titles, next year looks to be a completely different story. With the latest PlayStation and Xbox consoles coming in 2020, it is certain to be a big year. After all, publishers and developers often want to release fan favorites with new hardware to take advantage of extra sales. There is also a collection of titles that have been in development for several years set to release over the coming months.

In some cases, the most highly-anticipated games are sequels in popular franchises. Whereas in other instances, the games are completely original properties from trusted studios. One thing we can be certain of is that 2020 will be a great year for gaming. Here are the biggest video game releases to look forward to in 2020.

Final Fantasy VII Remake

Final Fantasy VII is widely regarded as the greatest entry in the acclaimed series. It should be no surprise then that fans have long requested a remake of it for modern hardware. Square Enix is finally doing just that in 2020 with a remaster of the PS1 classic. The studio is doing such a thorough job of rebuilding the entire game from the ground up that it will release in several parts. Launching only on PlayStation 4, the first part is due on March 3.

Doom Eternal

After successfully rebooting the Doom series in 2016, id Software is set to launch the sequel in 2020. Doom Eternal was originally planned to release in 2019 but was delayed to give the studio further development time. Players can expect it to follow the example set by its predecessor, capturing the spirit of the classic games. One notable new feature is a grapple-like attachment that will let players quickly travel vertically. Doom Eternal will now release on March 20 for most platforms. A Nintendo Switch version is set to follow sometime later.
