Best video games to be released: October 2022

Here are the best video games coming out in October 2022: lots of fun on PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X, PC and Nintendo Switch!

September is over, and it’s time to enter the ultimate Halloween month: October! In truth, this month’s lineup isn’t as thrilling as one might expect, but it sure has titles for all tastes!

Let’s start with A Plague Tale: Requiem: the debut title saw the brothers Amicia and Hugo face an incredible truth and a seemingly invisible enemy: the plague. Hugo is learning to control his powers and Amicia is stronger and more determined than ever: but will it be enough to keep them safe and find a place to live in peace? Follow the two brothers and lead them into a hostile, sick and corrupt world. Among the new arrivals also Overwatch 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the eponymous title that revolutionized the world of team shooters. Among the new features, new maps, new graphics and new game modes to make the action even more adrenaline!

Another very interesting novelty is Lost Eidolons, Ocean Drive Studio’s turn-based tactical RPG that promises hours of epic battles in the fantastic world of Artemesia. Eden, a mercenary who has fallen into disgrace following a betrayal, will have to defeat the Ludivictus empire and restore his honor to him: but only with the help of valiant allies can he succeed in the enterprise. It will be up to you to find them and build an army capable of turning the tide of the conflict!

Among the best video games coming out in October 2022 there is also Gotham Knights: are you ready to join the four vigilantes in their anti-crime? It won’t be an easy mission, but the four heroes have a number of unique abilities and exceptional weapons at their disposal. Join Batgirl, Nightwing, Red Hood and Robin and clear the streets of Gotham! Now let’s move on to another heroine you’ve all been waiting for for sure… let’s talk about Bayonetta 3, of course! The Umbra witch par excellence returns with a straight leg (literally) in a planetary rescue mission: this time our Bayonetta is engaged in fighting an army of Homunculi; a mysterious witch, Viola, could be the ally she will need to succeed in the enterprise.

Let’s now pass to Scorn, a nightmare that unfolds in a labyrinth of organic and technological material plowed by aberrant creatures. The game is inspired by the works of visual artists HR Giger and Zdzisław Beksiński, and the plot details are quite mysterious, but one thing is certain: you absolutely have to get out of that maze!

The new line-up also brings with it some games… bizarre. Among them Kamiwaza: Way of the Thief. As the title suggests, you will play as a thief of feudal Japan animated by a single ambition: to steal as much as possible (without getting caught). His funny movements and unconventional techniques may make you smile, but don’t underestimate the mission: the life of the thief is not as easy as it seems!

Now let’s talk about The Last Worker, a graphic adventure that focuses on loneliness and the awareness that the world is increasingly automated and alienating. A very interesting title, considering that it was also selected to appear at the 78th Venice International Film Festival! We close the best video games of October 2022 with Needy Streamer Overlord, a title with pixel art graphics that looks light-hearted and kawaii, but which actually focuses on the dark side of the internet and the world of idols and influencers.

These are the best video games coming this month: which one of them inspires you the most? And remember, in addition to the best video games coming out in October 2022, also take a look at the best exclusives on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch!
