10 Upcoming 2023 Video Games We're REALLY Worried About

10. The Day Before

We'll give this to The Day Before - we've never seen a game go from heralded to ridiculed quite so fast.

The Day Before was, at one point, the most wishlisted game on Steam - no small feat considering it was yet another entry in the already over-stuffed zombie-survival genre. Unfortunately, a series of calamitous screw-ups has completely derailed TDB's once juggernaut-like momentum.

The lesser bungle was the disappointing gameplay trailer, which showcased 10 minutes of roadside exploration and little else. And by "little else", we mean "anything that suggested the footage was actually taken from the game". Still, what else can you expect from a game at least partly made by unpaid volunteers? (That little tidbit leaking out was screw-up number two).

The biggest red flag, however, was when publisher Mytona pulled the game from Steam.

After initially blaming Steam itself for the game's removal, Mytona sheepishly revealed the real reason behind the game's disappearance: They were embroiled in trademark dispute with a Korean calendar app that shared the game's name.

You couldn't make it up.
