No Man's Sky (PS4) - August 9, 2016
Is there really anything more we can say about No Man's Sky that hasn't been said before? Hello Games' sprawling space sim has captured the imagination of an entire industry with a string of stellar gameplay teasers.
Thrusting players on a mission to journey to the center to the universe, uncovering all manner of alien worlds and exoplanets in the process, No Man's Sky is defined by its sprawling freedom, and the idea of discovering a procedurally generated planet for the very first time is nigh on intoxicating.
Even still, there's a hefty weight of expectation resting on the shoulders of the studio's sophomore title, and a prolonged development hasn't exactly aided the situation. Could we be experiencing No Man's Sky on PlayStation VR?

Don't know what Ark is all about? It's an "open-world dinosaur survival game." Heck, that alone is very, very intriguing. Add in our glowing hands-on time with it, and well, it's perfectly understandable why we're excited to see how we'd survive during the prehistoric era.

Horizon Zero Dawn (PS4) - February 28, 2017
Horizon Zero Dawn not only looks interesting from a gameplay perspective, but it's also Guerilla Games' first big game outside of the Killzone universe.

Dead Island 2 (PS4) - TBA
Originally in development by Yager, Dead Island 2 now is being worked on by a as-of-yet-unknown studio. While this leaves a big question mark on whether Dead Island 2 will keep its original 2016 release date, we're putting in the list for now.

-
Outlast 2 (PS4) - TBA
Confirmed for release this fall, Outlast 2 looks to continue where the first one left off in terms of scares, though not in story.
According to Red Barrels, players can expect the game to "test their faith."
If you've played the first one, then you're no doubt, looking forward to see what Outlast 2 will bring to the scare party.
Check out all our updates for Outlast 2 here.

Hellblade (PS4) - TBA
After working on solid action games like DmC: Devil May Cry, Enslaved and of course, Heavenly Sword, Ninja Theory is now working on a new IP from scratch in Hellblade. While Ninja Theory's last few games did well critically, it didn't do as well commercially. Will it finally change with Hellblade? We can't say for sure, but hey, it does look action-packed!
Check out our existing and all future updates to Hellblade right here.
-
Rise of the Tomb Raider (PS4) - TBA
We already know Rise of the Tomb Raider is a good game (read our sister site Game Revolution's review here), but the big question here is: is it good enough to withstand the Uncharted 4 juggernaut launching this year as well?
It's certainly a good year for action-adventure fans and Rise of the Tomb Raider will no doubt add to the plate of must-plays this year.
