2020 Games Preview: 40 Notable Releases Including Cyberpunk 2077, The Last of Us Part II, and More
In the gallery above, find details on the most-anticipated games that are expected to be released for PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, and PC during 2020. (They're listed in alphabetical order.) While our list only includes games with confirmed release dates or that seem more likely than not to come out this year, you'll also find some of the more remote possibilities for 2020 compiled at the end of the gallery.
Out April 10 for PlayStation 4. Square Enix's long-awaited remake of its beloved 1997 PlayStation game won the top award from game critics at last summer's E3 conference and should finally make its way—in part—to the PS4 in April, should the most recent release date actually stick this time. In fact, the remake will be released episodically, necessiated by the sheer volume of content. (April's first installment, which will only encompass a single location, will take up two full Blu-ray discs on its own.) And this is definitely not just a HD prettification. Combat has been tweaked a bit from the original, with a new tactical mode (which effectively pauses the action) added to a modified real-time system (or "Active Time Battle" in FF parlance). There is also a new camera system, new voice acting, and character and story changes in addition to a complete overhaul of the visuals.
FF7 may not be the only FF title to arrive in 2020. Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles Remastered (which is more of a graphical update of the 2004 GameCube title and not a full remake like FF7) is expected to launch for PS4 and Switch this summer.
