3. Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II
This year, Xbox Game Studios will launch several hyped titles, and Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II is among them. The game was announced long back in 2019, and after more than four years finally, the game is ready to be released officially on May 21, 2024. It is an action-adventure game, and the sequel to the 2017 game Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice.
The trailer of the game shows that it has borrowed lots of elements from its predecessor including, permadeath, utilizing puzzles and runes to advance. Additionally, in this game also, players can use the feature to examine Senua’s mental state. However, among the new features, players will get a new fighting system that will be more dynamic and realistic.
2. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl
Survival horror is one of the most popular gaming genres of recent times and players love playing horror games. Of course, the Xbox has lots of survival horror games, but the new year is bringing another that one shouldn’t miss: S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl was initially planned to be released long ago in 2012, but that plan was canceled and put on hold for more than a decade. If you ask why it was been so much delayed, well, we are not sure of the exact answer, but the global events impacted its development a lot.

Players can use magic, melee weapons, and firearms to fight enemies throughout.
If you have watched the trailer of the game, how it seems is something you are already aware of. Let me tell you, hold your excitement for now as the release date of the game hasn’t yet been declared. However, as the sources confirm, it will probably be released in the middle of 2024.
