Though many of 2017's biggest games are yet to come down the pike, it's never too early to look ahead to next year, especially as the likes of Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, Destiny 2, South Park: The Fractured but Whole, Call of Duty: WWII and Star Wars Battlefront II will have come and gone before you know it.
