5 most anticipated video games releasing in August 2022
Some of the most anticipated video games scheduled for release in the latter half of 2022 have unfortunately been pushed to next year due to delays in production. With games like Starfield and Breath of the Wild 2 being pushed to a 2023 release, gamers are hoping that there are no more setbacks for their favorite franchises.
Despite the delays, there are still a host of video games scheduled for release soon. One of the most anticipated titles of the year, God of War Ragnarok, will be released in November. However, the months leading up to it certainly have enough exciting releases of their own, with August being no different.
After a seven-year hiatus, the Saints Row franchise is scheduled to make a comeback with their series reboot releasing on August 23.
Ever since the release of the first game in 2006, Saints Row has developed a legacy as one of the best series in the genre of action-adventure open-world video games. Developed by Volition and published by THQ and Deep Silver, the series follows the adventures of a street gang operating out of the Saints Row district.
The latest entry in the series takes the game to a fictional city called San Ileso that has been split into nine districts controlled by rival gangs. Players will have to work to annex and control these districts and develop illegal businesses, offering an authentic gang-crime experience.
With over a decade of history behind the franchise, Saints Row is one of the most anticipated video games of the entire year.
