5 Video Game Sequels We Want in 2023

Video game sequels often leave fans with their imaginations running wild. The prospect of a sequel is always exciting regardless of the franchise due to the endless possibilities they represent. A new sequel could be anything from a return to form or something new altogether. Either way, the development of these titles is special. This is part of what makes sequels so great. So without further ado, here are our picks for the 5 Video Game Sequels We Want in 2023.

5. Marvel's Spider-Man 2

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 seeks to improve upon the buttery smooth Marvel's Spider-Man. Once again being developed by Insomniac Games, this title hopes to bring even more polish to the side content within the new game. In addition, series favorite villains will make their debut within this title as well. Both Venom and Kraven the Hunter are here to bring the hype around this new title. With Insomniac at the helm, it would appear that this sequel will bring all the web-slinging greatness we will need in 2023.

If players are unfamiliar, the first SDpider-Man game developed by Insomniac featured the web-slinger battling with Doctor Octopus. That isn't where this title stopped, however, as there was also DLC for the game that included Miles Morales, another fan-favorite Spider-Man. In conclusion, if players enjoyed the combat and freedom of the first game, then a sequel with refined mechanics as well as a more extensive roster of villains is certain to appease fans. This is undoubtedly one of the video game sequels that we would want in 2023. It will undoubtedly be a welcome addition to any superhero fan's games library.

4. Hollow Knight: Silksong

Hollow Knight is a masterpiece of a game. The game features design elements and atmosphere that are almost unrivaled in the indie development space. That being said, it would seem that the developers at Team Cherry would have more great gameplay to grace us with. If players are unfamiliar, Hollow Knight is a beautifully hand-drawn Metroid-Vania-style game that garnered a ton of attention for its gameplay as well as its emotionally striking score.

Players will be able to go through dark levels and be filled with a morbid curiosity about the events and characters around them. The game's bosses are often really challenging, a trend we hope continues into the next chapter of this story. In addition, the new game hopes to answer questions about our hero's origins and the state of their world. There will also be more quest content in the newest entry, which will be great for those devout completionists out there. All in all, Hollow Knight: Silksong hopes to build off of the foundation laid by the first game, and we eagerly await this video game sequel in 2023.

Forza Motorsport will not only be a reboot for the series but an absolute pinnacle for gaming regarding graphical fidelity. In addition, the game will allow players to customize their vehicles more than ever. The game also features new features that will make it stand out from its competitors.

Everything from physics to the weather and tracks will now be more dynamic than ever. It is hoped that this will bring more realism to the game. And offer players that dream of being behind the wheel of Forza‘s extensive roster of vehicles. The audio for the game is also really impressive, with it bringing the roaring engines within the game to life with every press of the pedal. In closing, Forza Motorsport hopes to return to form for the series. And help cement its legacy as one of the finest racing game experiences you can play. As well as one of our most anticipated video game sequels of 2023.

While there is currently limited information on the game, we know a few things for sure. First, the game will feature the same open-ended combat style from the first game and improve upon it. This can be pretty hard to conceive, given the fact that the first game already has one of the most highly lauded combat systems in recent memory.

With such a hard act to follow, it will be fascinating to see how the developers capitalize on the love and praise from the first game as well as what role that plays in the sequel. Players will definitely have a ton to look forward to if the trailer is anything to go by. Additionally, the trailer features a lofty, soaring soundtrack as our hero, Link, goes throughout the world.
