With all the excellent releases that happened in 2018, 2019 has a tall order to topple. With titles like God of War, Marvel's Spider-Man, Red Dead Redemption 2 and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, 2018 certainly took us gamers to a very low checking balance.
2019 doesn't look to be disappointing either, with a couple last minute announcements and games that have been long over due, yours truly wants to give you a run down of the games we're most excited for here at Fanboys Anonymous. Keep in mind this list is in no significant order and we do realize some are missing, I apologize in advance,
Marvel's Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order
Here is a game that came in under the radar and has been long over due. Landing exclusively on the Nintendo Switch sometime in 2019, little is known about the third installment in the beloved franchise. All the fans were exposed to was a trailer at the 2018 Game Awards setting up a show down with the The Black Order and possibly Thanos. Many other villains and Heroes were shown in some quick action shots but the overall plot is only being speculated from it's title and the minute and a half trailer. I for one am looking forward to the nostalgia wave and the team up with some friends both virtually and in real life.
Kingdom Hearts III
Talk about long overdue. This game has been announced for years even releasing a ton of teaser footage early on however delay after delay has pushed the game back to its final release date of January 2019. Out the gate in 2019 we are getting a good one with long overdue third installment of the Kingdom Hearts franchise. With new Monster's Inc., Toy Story and Big Hero 6 levels being added to the game, players are salivating to continue the story that integrates Final Fantasy and Disney! I may actually finish this one when it comes out on January 25th 2019.
Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled
Now here is the game you didn't know you needed, but once you heard it was coming, it is absolutely all you need in 2019. Crash Team Racing the game, that in my humble opinion, kicked Mario Karts ass. The game had a story mode with multiple challenges, competitive mode and dozens of characters. It was way before it's time in the came of cartoon racers and was sorely missed after Crash to a hiatus from the gaming world. I am super stoked for this release in June and am only disappointed it will not be out in time for the Dacetacular Gaming For a Cause VI. Cheap plug...Bang,Bang. The race begins June 21st 2019!
Overkill's The Walking Dead
Zombie Apocalypses are all the rage these days and this isn't the only Zombie game coming out on this list and there are way more in 2019 than I listed also the game had a Windows release in November. However this one has me on the edge of my seat because it's set in The Walking Dead Universe and takes place in Washington D.C. which is not to far from Alexandria. So I have hopes that there will be some show cross over in the game but at the same time, I am super realistic understanding the game probably won't. This game doesn't look too different from the other titles coming out in 2019 with the undead, but the fact it's The Walking Dead, I'm in, you can pick up this game for consoles February 6th 2019.
Mortal Kombat 11
Twenty-six years after the original Mortal Kombat we are getting an eleventh installment. Now Mortal Kombat X was an amazing game both with story telling and the crazy amount of characters in it's DLC. That in itself is a huge hurdle to jump to make Mortal Kombat 11 bigger and better. One of the rumors surrounding the game is the inclusion of Spawn and interesting addition and some what natural fit for the franchise. I will naturally get the game as I have been since it's PS3 day, but I am super curious as to how they top the last release. You can join the fight starting April 23rd 2019 on all consoles.
Resident Evil 2 HD Remake
I have to admit I am a bigger fan of Resident Evil 3 solely based on a demo disc I got on the original PlayStation, but the HD release of Resident Evil 2 did get me excited upon the announcement. The trailers that have been posted leading up to the game's release have shown the amazing detail and care that has gone into bringing this twenty year old game from basic level graphics to the world of PS4 HD. Resident Evil 2 HD Remake is set to hit consoles on January 25th 2019.
Doom Eternal
The sequel to the 2016 PS4 Hit DOOM! is set for a 2019 release as of right now, and we could not be more excited. One of the few games I have played start to finish the sequels is set to pick right up from where we left off. So far all we have to go on as fans is the little bit of gameplay that was release in August at the annual Quakecon event. I eagerly await the official date and hope that you do in fact come out in 2019.
