Il 2016 sta ormai per andare in soffitta con una tanti grandi nomi che hanno caratterizzato l’annata, e anche qualche delusione. Il 2017 però si prospetta ben più ricco, non fosse altro per l’uscita di un nuovo protagonista sulla scena videoludica come Nintendo Switch.
Sono tantissimi i giochi annunciati per il nuovo anno ma ancora senza data, basti pensare a Red Dead Redemption 2, Scalebound, Ace Combat 7 o Detroit: Become Human.
