Midnight Suns Release

With Midnight Suns a new strategy game in the Marvel universe is coming to the market. The licensed game comes from developer Firaxis Games, which should be a big name for strategy fans in particular.

Firaxis Games has relaunched the popular Civilization series with great success. The developer also managed to pull the XCOM series out of the ditch and create a successful restart of the series here as well.

The release is scheduled for December 02, 2022 for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. At a later date, a Nintendo Switch release is also planned. For handheld fans, however, the option to play the game via Steam or the Steam Deck on the go is certainly available by then.

 

 

Need for Speed Unbound Release

For all racing fans, the new NFS is worth a look. It will be the first new game since Need for Speed Heat was released in 2019, and the first game from the "new" old developer Criterion Games.

This had developed one of the best games of the series in 2012, we are talking about Need for Speed Most Wanted.

The release on December 02 will only be on the console side for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. On the PC the game is playable both over Steam as well as Origin or the new EA app.

 

 

 

The Callisto Protocol Release

With The Callisto Protocol the first title of a completely new IP from Striking Distance Studios is released.

The game is an unofficial successor to the Dead Space series and was developed by the creator of the Dead Space series. In this sci-fi horror game, classic survival horror elements are mixed with sci-fi.

The Callisto Protocol is one of the hopes of the horror genre and looks very promising so far. The release on December 2 is planned for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and for PC on Steam.

 

 

More releases in December

This is how December starts extremely strong, but after that there are still more interesting games. Hello Neighbor 2 starts on December 6 and directly on Saturday another interesting date follows with December 8 and the Game Awards 2022. The next release is on December 9 Dragon Quest Treasures for the Nintendo Switch.

December 13 even holds two releases. On the one hand the remake of the PSP classic Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion and on the other hand the first-person shooter High on Life. However, High on Life is not a classic shooter, but something crazy. The game was invented by Justin Roiland, the creator of Rock and Morty, and is at least as crazy as the series. This will be interesting especially for owners of an Xbox Game Pass, because the game will be available there directly at release.
