2022 in Gaming Has Gone a Bit Haywire; Biggest Launches in One Picture
This year promised to be very good in terms of premieres. Unfortunately, several of them fell off the schedule, although other candidates have immediately taken in their place.
In December we wrote about what premieres we can expect this year. Unfortunately, a few titles fell off the list, but there's no need to despair, because they were replaced by equally interesting candidates.
See you next year
Of the eighteen titles on the original image, fourteen remain. This year's schedule has lost such games as: S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, Starfield, the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Baldur's Gate III. We can expect all the games only next year, and the dates were not specified.

So, what's left?
Don't get me wrong - fourteen games is a pretty good result. Admittedly, a few of the titles on the list have already launched, though that doesn't mean that 2022 won't provide us with a few more good releases. A slightly updated image can be found below.
June does not abound in interesting premieres, but on July 20 we can expect the release of Stray, a game which will steal the hearts of kitten and feline fans. Next in line is Marvel's Spider-Man on PC, which will be released on August 12. Shortly after, we get the fifth installment of Saints Row, which we will be able to play on August 23.
October looks most interesting in terms of premieres. As many as three strong positions will debut that month. These are Marvel's Midnight Suns (October 7), Knights of Gotham (October 25) and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (October 28).
In 2022, we can also expect to see Company of Heroes 3, God of War: Ragnarok, A Plague Tale: Requiem and Hogwarts Legacy. We do not know the exact release dates of these titles, so who knows, maybe the schedule will become even more depleted. Nevertheless, let's hope that this will not happen.
