Lego 2K Drive
- Release date: 19 May 2023
- PS4 exclusive? No, also on PS5, Xbox, PC and Switch
- Publisher: 2K
This zany open-world driving game looks like it’ll bring all the best bits of Lego to the table, with total vehicle customisation and loads of crazy events to take part in.
There are Mario Kart-like circuits to drive around, but also a massive world full of sights and races to explore, and it seems like a perfect pick for family racing.

Armored Core 6 Fires of Rubicon

- Release date: 25 August 2023
- PS4 exclusive? No, also on PS5, Xbox and PC

The next Armored Core game has been a very long time coming, with the series seemingly on hiatus while FromSoftware made stunning games like Sekiro and Elden Ring, but it’s now right around the corner.
It’ll offer mecha combat and customisation to let you fine-tune every aspect of your giant robotic warrior, with loads of different fighting styles and weaponry types to explore.

Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines 2
- Release date: TBC
- PS4 exclusive? No, also on Xbox One and PC
- Publisher: Paradox Interactive
It’s only taken 15 years but a sequel to Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines is on its way. It is an in-depth, first-person RPG, like the original, but this time on consoles as well as PC. We can’t wait.
Beyond Good And Evil 2
- Release date: TBC
- PS4 exclusive? No, also on Xbox One and PC
- Publisher: Ubisoft
Announced back during E3 in June 2017, Beyond Good and Evil 2 is long overdue, especially considering the first was released over 15 years ago, and we still have no clue when it might be ready. The game’s other-world setting – where multiple species communicate and interact – is quirky, cheeky and stunning. Think The Fifth Element in video game form and you’re halfway there.
