Just passed the January slope, and with a February that aims to bring us back the cold, it is not surprising that many are thinking about spending this month with plans of sofa, movie and blanket, or failing that, console and PC. And what better way to complete these plans than with a new list of upcoming releases.
Although we are facing a month slightly shorter than the rest, it will leave us with a good assortment of titles from the first day, as well as some of the most anticipated releases of the year: Elden Ring and Valve’s Steam Deck, a combination that will certainly not go unnoticed; as well as great titles like Horizon: Forbidden West and Total War: Warhammer 3.

A single push will unleash a cataclysm.
In addition to various improvements and changes, the fact that for the first time in Total War: Warhammer, we will be able to control the power of the monstrous Demon Prince, even varying his appearance with a wide range of unique customization options that will affect his stats, undoubtedly stands out.

february 25
Steam Deck
Originally scheduled to start shipping in December 2021, the Steam Deck is finally ready to start reaching the first users. While we are aware that this is not a game per se, its huge impact on the video game market is more than enough reason for us not to leave it out of this list of upcoming releases.
Far from seeking to compete with the current generation of consoles, despite sharing a clear orientation and design with the Nintendo Switch, this device focuses more on a portable computer experience than a console itself. And the fact is that we will not have our own game catalog, or any kind of exclusive, but quite the opposite.
And is that the great attraction of the Steam Deck lies in providing access to our Steam library (with increasing compatibility), in a small seven-inch LCD touch screen with a resolution of 1280 x 800 dots in an aspect ratio 16:10, with a refresh rate of 60 hertz, and WiFi connectivity that will allow us to play even online games.
Elden Ring
PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S
There is no doubt in our minds that Elden Ring is not only this month’s most desired title, but one of the most desired upcoming releases of the entire year. And the expectation for this action role-playing game set in a fantasy world created by developer Hidetaka Miyazaki and novelist George R. R. Martin, with a strong influence of the Demon’s Souls trilogy and Bloodborne, aims to be the most complete installment of this genre.
Rise, Sinluz, and may grace guide you to embrace the power of the Elden Circle and rise as Circle Lord of the Midlands in this profound tale told in fragments. An epic drama in which the motivations of each character are found in the Midlands.
Delve into this vast, large-scale open world created from scratch, seamlessly connected, where the open territories will be filled with huge situations and dungeons with complex, three-dimensional designs. Explore and experience firsthand the delight of discovering unknown and daunting threats, and face the myriad of challenges and dangers they present.
In addition, highlights the fact that we can freely combine weapons, armor and magic that you equip, something that will allow us to develop our character at all times, according to our style of play.
Finally, as it could not be otherwise with this type of delivery, we will again have a multiplayer component, this time not only focused on the “competitive” factor. We will be able to connect directly with other players and travel together to face some of the most challenging challenges. Of course, we can also use this feature to raid and make things even more difficult for the other players.
Atelier Sophie 2: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Dream
PC, PS4, Switch
