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: A sequel to 2015's reboot of EA's Star Wars: Battlefront series of action games. The previous game—which met with disapproval from critics and gamers—focused on the original trilogy. The sequel adds content from the "new movies" (though it's unclear whether that means episodes 1-3 or 7-8) and—more importantly—addresses the first game's major shortcomings by adding a fully fleshed-out single-player campaign as well as more content throughout the game.
When: Late 2017
