10 Highly-Anticipated Video Games FINALLY Releasing In 2021
2. Psychonauts 2
To say that the Psychonauts sequel is something that is highly anticipated in the gaming industry is like saying The Titanic was a bit of a large dingy. A huge understatement. We've been waiting for this game since 2018 when it was first announced by Double Fine, and I personally have descended into Milk Man levels of obsession, supping on every single drop of information I can possibly wring out of the stone-clad studios and their contacts.
However, the wait is nearly over, as the 2021 release date, while still not nailed down to a specific day, has been confirmed as very soon indeed. Strangely, this makes the final waiting period even more intense, as with each piece of gameplay and story revealed, our hopes begin to rise to dangerous levels.
The first game was an off-kilter thrill ride that never got the love it deserved, and now the sequel, with more eyes and backers on it than ever before, stands to prove whether our faith was well founded.
With the comical chops of the original writers, voice actors reprising their roles, and with what will sure to be a huge glob of Double Fine hilarity, Psychonauts 2 stands to be a game that burrows deep into our hearts and minds come the close of this year.
