Hitman 3
The next jump we will have at the end of January will be made from the hand of Hitman 3, a new serving of Agent 47 that squeezes each of the places, stories and murders that await us on their giant maps. Without a doubt one of those we look forward to the most.

A touch of nostalgia for PlayStation gamers who will have this duo again in one of the titles that aim to be the best PS5 titles. And it is undoubtedly a delivery that not only gives us a lot of fun, but is also intended to make enormous use of the exclusive advantages of the new console.
Halo Infinite
With just a few minutes early and some well-received first impressions, it seems that Microsoft’s gem is finally ready to come out and surprise us. And the fact that Halo Infinite, while not having the best start, is without a doubt a delivery that will undoubtedly be well received by fans of the saga.
Horizon forbidden west

Far Cry 6
Under the control of Dani Rojas, we will travel to the tropical island of Yara where we will try to pass through the precarious regime of Castillo, a villain played by Giancarlo Esposito (known for his recent roles in Breaking Bad and The Mandalorian) an intense story to stop enough action and the characteristic note of humor of the saga. However, this will not deprive us of the ability to keep the popular freedom of exploration and side missions to improve gameplay.
Gran Turismo 7
Another one that has a date but doesn’t invite much hope is Gran Turismo 7. It played with the fine print a couple of times to get the idea across to arrive sooner rather than later, but it will be necessary to take it patiently and see what future you do.
Resident Evil Village
The new installment of Capcom will last a few years after what happened in Resident Evil 7 and will focus on Ethan and to a lesser extent his wife Mia and Chris Redfield. These three characters will be the central core of the game, which, as we have told you on previous occasions, will take us to a city in Europe surrounded by medieval elements.
