The Games of 2022 - those that are dated
As 2022 kicks off, there are a lot of games to look forward too, we know quite a lot of games that are coming in the next year, but right now, these are the only ones that are dated.
What this means is that the developers and publishers are confident in their release dates for them, while games like the first one below were due out in 2021 originally, some of the games have always been set to release this year. As you might expect as well, most of the games are only in the first few months, though there are a few outliers from that grouping, including Starfield.
Regardless, these are the games releasing in 2022, that have a confirmed release date. The layout for the below is simple, the larger text is the games title, then below that will be date, developer (sometimes developer and publisher will be the same though) and finally platforms. As Google Stadia and Amazon Luna are not available in Australia, they have been excluded where needed.
