Babylon X combines Western and Eastern narratives and set to come to PCs and the next generation of consoles only sometime in 2024.
3. Squadron 42
At number 3 we have Star Citizen’s Squadron 42 campaign mod, which has been highly anticipated for quite a while. I mean, that is a ridiculous 12E period we’re talking about.

Squadron 42 is coming to PCs only in 2024.

The two games, however, have almost nothing in common except the gameplay elements of Soulframe, which is a bit inspired by Warframe. The Soulframe takes place on a single large open world heavily influenced by nature, where you’re going to be doing a lot of exploration and some Japanese fantasy.
6. Axiom of Maria
Available on Steam through a demo and an early access phase at number six, we have Axiom of Maria. Axiom of Maria is an action-adventure third-person story-driven hacking slasher about a girl trying to get back a family from an AI in a Soul that is a ghost town. Apparently, that’s not Korea, but due to population declines, it’s being turned into this.

13. Still Wakes the Deep
Announced almost a month ago, coming from the same developers of Amnesia, number 13, we have a brand new Unreal Engine 5 project here, going by the name Still Wakes the Deep. The creators are calling it a return to the first-person narrative genre, revolving around an offshore worker on an oil rig fighting for his life through a storm, just a cold whirl with no lines of communication.

17. Nazralath: The Fallen World
About almost a year ago, we came across a brand new indie studio revealing what seemed to be their totally brand new story-focused Souls-like action RPG, going by the name Nazralath: The Fallen World. I mentioned the game before; it’s taking cues from Dark Souls, specifically Dark Souls 3, set in an open world with a heavier focus on atmosphere. Here’s how it looks.

Described as a third-person Roguelike shooter, last but not least, we have Killer Bean. I think Killer Bean is the type of game that could potentially revolutionize some stuff. You see, the game is not really a Roguelike shooter but a procedurally generated mix of a Max Payne-inspired Grand Theft Thoro and the fast-paced gameplay of old Just Cause games. And you play as a bean. The game is coming to PCs only in 2024.
