5 Most Anticipated FPS Games Coming Out in 2023

The FPS space has a lot to look forward to this year in 2023. There are titles in this genre that range in their presentation and adaptation of FPS mechanics. This means players will have a ton to choose from going further into the year. Some of these titles are from well-known developers, while a few are from the indie space. Either way, they are certainly anticipated. So without further ado, here are our picks for the 5 Most Anticipated FPS Games Coming Out in 2023.

5. Boundary

Boundary is a game that defies gravity and expectations. The Zero-G shooter allows for players to duke it out in battles in space. This gives the game a unique feel and flow to it that has made it really popular in the indie shooter scene. The game, as of January, recently underwent a technical test in order to bring the game closer to a releasable state. This is great for backers of the game who want to get their hands on it as soon as possible.

The game features a ton of customization options that make it possible for players to spec out their guns the way that they want. This will be interesting to see how this affects the combat within the game. There is also a class system that ranges from more support roles, such as medics, to sniper and support roles. This will give the combat more depth as players will be able to find out the best balance between classes. All in all, while it may be from a relatively small studio, this game offers a promising future for the tactical FPS arena shooter genre.

4. BattleBit Remastered

BattleBit Remastered is a game after the hearts of many retro FPS players. Players who enjoy games such as the older Battlefield titles, such as Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4, will feel right at home within this blocky world. The game has garnered a ton of attention, with the game holding frequent playtests that quickly fill to capacity. It is clear from these tests that this is an experience that many FPS fans have been clamoring for.

While the game might be presented in a low-poly art style, this makes it incredibly accessible, as many players' PCs can run the game. Add to that the fact that the game will feature massive 254-player battles, and you have a recipe for success. Another notable feature of the game that is made possible by this design choice is the distractibility of the game. This is a feature that fans of the older Battlefield titles have sorely missed. Altogether, BattleBit Remastered is one of the most anticipated FPS games of 2023, and we can't wait to see how it releases.

3. Atomic Heart

Atomic Heart is a game that has a distinct style and aesthetic that has led it to be one of the most anticipated games of 2023. The game has an art style that seems distinctly Soviet steampunk, which is a rather unique choice. And offers players a look at a world in which robots have become really commonplace. Players who are familiar with games such as the BioShock series will definitely be able to see the similarities in how this game is presented. However, the game maintains its own approach and distinctions throughout the gameplay we have seen.

There will be many challenges along the way for the player, which include many cybernetic threats as well as mutants. This is sure to give the game some combat variety and opens up new possibilities for gameplay. In addition, however, players will be able to upgrade themselves in order to become an even more significant threat on the battlefield. In summation, Atomic Heart is a game that appears to have a distinct vision in mind, and we cannot wait to see it realized in 2023.

2. Redfall

Redfall is an upcoming game from Bethesda Softworks. This game will allow players to take control of up to four different party members as they fight a vampiric horde. The game will feature many different gameplay mechanics that will allow players to work alongside each other. This is done in order for the players to complete different tasks. The characters each have their own specialties and things that make them stand out from one another. The game's environmental design is also stunning, which means that players will be spending a large amount of time in this world. This will almost assuredly feel like a treat.

Players who look forward to this game have a ton to look forward to. The characters in the game all appear somewhat likable and varied, and the world seems to be realized quite well. In addition, players will have the ability to play through the game with their friends. This will encourage team play and allow players to work together to fight back the vampires. In closing, Redfall is one of the games that we look forward to the most going into 2023, especially in the FPS space.

1. Starfield

Starfield appears to be a behemoth of a game. While many players may be skeptical of the game's promised scale, one thing is sure. The scale is impressive. Players will be able to journey through a massive world and experience a ton of things on their journey. Players familiar with how the team at Bethesda typically fills their worlds have a lot to look forward to with Starfield. The game appears to be highly ambitious and brings the vastness of Bethesda‘s open worlds to a futuristic setting. In comparison, the game may lack the brand identity of games like Fallout and Skyrim. However, it would appear that just as much love has been poured into the creation of this game's world.

Overall, Starfield appears to be a game that hopes to defy expectations. Perhaps even exceed them, seeing as this game is the studio's first foray into a new world in quite some time. It will be interesting to see what they come up with. The game also is built on an entirely new engine, which is sure to be run through its courses as the game releases. Hopefully, this will bring better performance and graphical fidelity to the game. To close, Starfield looks to be one of the massive games in the FPS space for 2023.
