January 2024 is almost coming to an end, and we have had a ton of amazing video games released this month. From the return of Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown to the tragic and depressing story of Ellie in The Last of Us Part II, it has been a great month of gaming so far. While the month is still not over and we still have games like Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth and Tekken 8 coming out, let’s look forward to the next month.
The next month, just like January, is also filled with fantastic games that people are going to enjoy playing. In fact, some of these games have been years in the making, originally being announced back in the late 2010’s.
But out of all of the games coming out in February, here are the games that people are looking forward to the most.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League
Release Date: February 2, 2024
Platforms: PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PC
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League may not look like it, but it is the official sequel to the Batman: Arkham games. Developed by the same developing company, Rocksteady, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League takes place years after the events of Arkham Knight, where Bruce Wayne was revealed to be the Batman and faked his death after saving Gotham one last time.
During Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, you will be able to take control of 4 popular Suicide Squad members: Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, and King Shark. As the Suicide Squad, you are tasked by Amanda Waller to do one impossible mission: Kill the Justice League. Since after they were brainwashed by Braniac, the former heroes are now wreaking havoc in Metropolis.
The game is set to release on February 2, 2024. But if you pre-order now, you will have early access to the game and can start playing in January 30, 2024.
Persona 3: Reload
Release Date: February 2, 2024
Platforms: PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PC
Persona 3: Reload is the highly requested remake of the genre defining entry in the Persona series, Persona 3. It’s thanks to Persona 3 changing how the game is played from Persona 1 and 2 that Persona 4 and 5 were able to garner so much popularity in both the eastern and western audiences.
Persona 3: Reload will have majority of the familiar gameplay mechanics from the previous Persona games, but it will still feature the same story. However, gameplay mechanics like ways to spend time, combat, and other activities might receive the Persona 5 treatment, as majority of the players who know Persona are more familiar with Persona 5.
The game will also be on Xbox Game Pass the day of release, which is a great way to experience the game at a much cheaper price.
