Most Anticipated Video Games of 2017: Sequels, Remakes and Adaptations
No, it's not you. There's a reason why many of the games you'll see below in part one of our 2017 preview (a second part, focusing on new IP, arrives later this week) may seem familiar: you saw them here last year, in our 2016 games preview. The good news? They probably won't get delayed again to 2018. You'll find those holdovers—as well as the most promising recently announced titles—in our gallery below, listed in alphabetical order.
What: The delayed sequel to the 2014 role-playing adventure South Park: The Stick of Truth (based, in turn, on Comedy Central's long-running animated series). It features an improved combat system and a female playable character, among other changes, while retaining Trey Parker and Matt Stone's warped sense of humor, which is expressed through such gameplay innovations as new controls for total sphincter manipulation.
When: Early 2017
