Guide: New PS4 Games Releasing in January 2018

January AKA Ramsey's Review Extravaganza

Monster Hunter! Nothing else matters...

Lost Sphear! I really enjoyed I Am Setsuna. I didn't realize this was coming out so soon. Nice!

Really wish they'd give a release window for the PC version of MH so I can decide if I can wait it out or not.....

I have Dissidia preordered. I don't really want or afford anything else anyway.

Dissidia and FighterZ for me, that's all i can afford to get

Monster Hunter on the release date for me, but it's impressive that many games are coming already.
Can't forget about Shadow of the Colossus in February.

Monster hunter and dbfz for me, maybe dissidia ff nt if the review's good.

The early onslaught...
Day 1:
Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth- HM !
Monster Hunter World
Dragon Ball FighterZ

Wait for sale:
The Inpatient

Monster Hunter World is going to keep me very busy.

Not much really...

Im saving my pennies for ni no kuni, yakuza and red dead i think. Interested in the inpatient but resi 7 was too much for me in vr, whereas until dawn freaked me out without a headset, so yet to be seen whether i take a plunge on the it yet

O, digimon is on vita too btw

Just MH that it

Can't wait for Dissidia and DBFZ. Depending on my tax returns, I'll try to get one of them. Monster Hunter I've seen a lot of hype for, but I've never played any game in the series. Maybe I'll check it later.

The Inpatient for me, should be a good fit for vr

Dang. Not a moment to rest, eh, 2018? Gonna be picking up Dragon Ball FighterZ and Iconoclasts (you guys spelled it wrong), as well as Digimon. Gonna be nice to play another game from Konjak finally - been forever since Noitu Love 2 came out, and Iconoclasts looks genuinely fantastic.

I'm not super thrilled on how Hacker's Memory is looking - the main character looks like a dork, and it reuses SO MUCH from Cyber Sleuth. But I recently gave Cyber Sleuth away when I got my sister and her boyfriend a PS4 for Christmas since they like Digimon, and I'll pick up Hacker's Memory just to replace it.

Man, 3 games right off the bat. And I'm seriously tempted to get the Ultimate Edition for Dragon Ball too - $110. Brutal, but I know ArcSys supports their fighting games super well after launch. Ugh... I gotta think that over.

You forgot Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition. I'm a bit surprised you did as it's a pretty big improvement over the game's original release.

Judging by that list, nothing for me.

Digimon and dissidia . shame ni no kuni Has been delayed

Dissidia, Monster Hunter and FighterZ.

MH looks good, but I will wait. January looks to be a time to make up a little bit of ground on my backlog.

Dissidia is the big one as far as I'm concerned. Though admittedly I am a bit worried that the team play aspect has completely gimped the 1v1 battling.

Nothing for me in January...

...fortunately I have a big backlog of games to keep me gaming.

Like BAMozzy, I have a huge backlog that will take me literally years; I'm not too concerned about the lack of my kind of game this month.

Nothing for me, but that's ok. I just got AC Origins for Christmas and then I still need to get back to Yakuza 0. I got sidetracked with Wolfenstein I & II.

MHW and maybe Dragon Ball FighterZ .

Monster Hunter for me at full price! Digimon will be a sale!

'Lost Sphear' will be my priority, a sort-of successor to 'I Am Setsuna', one of my favourite games from 2016 and one of my favourite JRPGs. I'll probably pre-order it soon.

'Monster Hunter: World' is on my shopping list as well, but I don't think I will buy it at launch, ... maybe save it for the summer.

'The Inpatient' will be fun to watch my favourite "horror-gamers" on YouTube play through (GG Gab and MrKravin). It's not my type of horror game to actually play for myself, I prefer stuff like the Evil Within. Also, I don't have a VR-set, so there's that ...

nothing there for me, seeing Aloy in MHW is great and makes me wanna play it but I didn't like the beta, only just started Nier Automata and still have Hellblade to start so I'll be good for the time being

None for me, though Backlog + new Xbone for Boxing day is more then enough for now.

Ghost of Tsushima...
I'm hoping it will release sometime in 2018.
No. 1 on my list as of right now.

Dissidea, Lost Sphear, Monster Hunter.

I was gonna get DBZ but I know I won't play it cause of Monster Hunter , and once Shadow comes in Feb I definitely won't be playing . My new years resolution is to only get games I will 100% play , no need to waste money 👌🏾

What a jam packed month!
But no matter, its Monster Hunter month!

I simply refuse to buy new games until I finish at least most of the ones I received for Christmas ! XD
It's very, very frustrating to not posess the time to actually play what you want to play. I know, I know : everyone's making his own life choices, etc... But damn.
Anyway, the only one exception for me is Dragon Ball Fighter Z. That is an instant DAY ONE purchase that will put on hold my "to-do" list. The game seems to be that good.

@RedMageLanakyn Autumn

Soooooo Late September- Mid December

None for me but Secret of Mana in Feb on vita, that's a day 1 purchase for me

I own a ps4 but I haven't ever used it, bought it from a mate at work when he upgraded to pro. I bought it for cross-play with vita,
Can anyone tell me what it's like playing ps4 games on vita, I have read many reports both good and bad, basically is it worth bothering with

Street fighter V arcade edition is out of the 16th, shouldn’t that be in that list?

@Derpie1 Yeah I'd seen that, I think I'll wait it out. Still have plenty to keep me busy on all platforms until then.

@WhistleFish If you mean remote play, then I’d say the functionality is reasonably okay. I played a few games remote play at first. It was nifty to be playing Dragon Age Inquisition or MGS V on my Vita. So cool. However, the controls become frustrating with the lack of L2 and R2 trigger buttons. And the lagginess broke it for me. The direct connection does okay in the same room, but if I venture farther than 20-30 feet from the PS4 I get lagging. I never tried to play remote play over the internet, but I imagine the connection is even more unstable. The novelty wore off on remote play, so now I use my Vita to play Vita games and the PS4 games I actually play on the TV with a DS4 controller.
There are so many good PS4 games, bro, so you should jump in! A reasonable place to start:

Just SFV arcade edition for me. Cleaning every FM from the original at the moment

Tempest due soon

Monster Hunter: World
Kerbal Space Program (for some reason I thought this was already available) for some fun relaxing gaming...

Did Bandai Namco mentioned anything about the length of DBF's story mode?

@Feena Only just found about the FM thing today. So you can't get FM from certain modes anymore once SFVAE releases?

Kerbal Space Program...FINALLY!!!!

@WanderingBullet yes... It seems like in A fight money will be awarded by Extra Mode fighting Shadaloo soldiers and the daily missions.

All the other modes still give you exp though. And you get 1000 FM every time a character levels up so there is still FM to be made in "old" modes

@Feena Ah, ok. Haven't played SFV in quite sometime now but I'm re-installing it now. I'll see if there are any other easy FM I can get later today. Thanks.

@Feena Btw, have they ever discounted those Alternate Costumes (ones that you need real money to buy) before?

@WillTheLion yeah agreed! Im so excited. Cant wait for Sakura!!!

@WanderingBullet I don't think so...there are some bundles though. I'd wait till AE drops before buying anything though!

@Feena Ok. I was thinking of actually purchasing AE since it's $40 (S1 and S2 cost $50 currently) and comes with 9 Premium Costumes which are worth $36.

@WanderingBullet that is a sweet deal if you don't already own SFV or you hadn't unlocked most of the characters....

@Feena It is! I probably should've waited for the AE.lol Anyways, I did the Challenge Missions for the first time, yesterday. Also managed to complete two Survival Normal Modes (Ryu and Nash) as well. Currently, working on Cinematic Mode on Extra difficulty. Dang, some of the fights are very difficult. Hopefully, I can complete it before tomorrow.

@WanderingBullet congratulations! I think SFV's (current) single player offer has been judged way too harshly...sure it may have some glaring omissions but once you actually start playing it there a lot to do...btw you can get those extra costumes by picking up the 2018 season pass in the first week it will be available if you plan on doing that. I have so much FM left that I could currently buy 5 characters and AE will bring new FM to the table so I am skipping season passes and buying everything with FM

@Feena Thanks, but I'm bad at fighting games.lol I couldn't even complete a single trial and rarely played PvP matches. I currently have around 478k FM. Haven't bought a single character yet though because I don't want regret buying one that I don't like. Hopefully, the challenges aren't too tough for the crossover costumes.

What's your Fighter ID, btw if you don't mind me asking?

@WanderingBullet pandarino, add me please.

@Splat cough cough arcade edition cough

@FullbringIchigo SFV arcade edition,dragon ball Z fighters and monster hunter. for startes...... god of war in march!
