Ten Upcoming Indie Games That Are Wishlist Worthy
If your gaming wishlist is looking a little weedy, we've assembled ten indie titles set to release this year that are sure to be bangers.
If there's one thing that's true in this life, it's that you've got to look forward to something. Maybe it's a nice sandwich you packed for lunch. Maybe it's a tropical getaway you've booked a couple of months down the track. Or maybe it's a slate of potential indie game releases over the course of the year, a constant drip feed of dopamine to last through to December. For this writer, as you may have guessed, the latter is the way to go.
Before we dive in, it's worth reflecting on the nature of game development for a moment. While most of the following titles have set their sights on a 2024 launch (source: their Steam pages), and two have confirmed launches over the next few months, game release dates are notoriously slippery beasts. Sometimes teams just need a little extra time to squash bugs and polish – it happens, and it's for the best, but it makes writing lists like this a little fraught.
So let's just say we're sending our best to all the developers and hope that they hit their launch windows without too much crunch.
And now, without any further ado, here's 10 indie games you should wishlist and eagerly wait for.
