Video Game Releases Coming in January 2018

  • December 24, 2017
  • Mischa McGill

The beginning of the year is usually a quiet one for video game releases, and even though there aren’t as many new titles as the holiday season, January is still shaping up to be a solid month for new content across all platforms. With that extra holiday money padding your wallet, you should treat yourself to some fresh-out-of-the-oven games.

There’s a little something for everyone in January 2018, including a couple big fighting games, a new Kirby title,  a highly anticipated JRPG, and more. Read on for next month’s release highlights, as well as a comprehensive list of all game launch dates at the end.

January 19

Kirby Battle Royale

Kirby: Battle Royale (3DS) – The only January release for Nintendo’s handheld console is bringing back everyone’s favorite hungry pink sphere, Kirby! One to four players can fight in local or online battles. Pick from 10+ abilities and 10 battle types to compete in countless matchups. Hoard treasure in Ore Express, knock out opponents in Slam Hockey, shoot missiles at Robo Bonkers, and more! There’s a single-player story mode too!

January 23

Lost Sphear (PS4, Switch, PC) – This JRPG is the second to be developed by Tokyo RPG Factory and is considered a spiritual successor to their first title, I Am Setsuna. To stop the world from disappearing forever, Kanata and his comrades set out to rebuild the world mustering different Memory and crafting the world around them.

Mischa McGill

Mischa grew up with video games and still has a deep love for many - especially fun, colorful RPGs. Some of her favorites include Pokémon, Animal Crossing, Pikmin, Fantasy Life, Kingdom Hearts, Skyrim, Civilization V, and Stardew Valley. She loves nights in with her boyfriend cooking Mexican food, watching Studio Ghibli movies, and going head-to-head in their favorite games. Mischa might not beat you in Super Smash Bros, but she owns a replica of Arwen’s sword and Hermione’s wand, so... don’t rub it in too much.
