Biggest Video Games Releasing in February 2023

By Tyler Fischer

2023 looks poised to be a massive year for the video game industry, and February is the first taste of what lies ahead. While January had some noteworthy releases, it was a fairly slow month compared to what February has in store. This month players will revisit one of the most iconic worlds in all of entertainment, slay behemoth monsters for hobby, befriend headless cannibals, and be transported to an alternate timeline where the Soviet Union never collapsed but did get usurped by obots.

Below, you can check out February's biggest video game releases. As the use of "biggest" suggests, this is by no means an exhaustive list, but a list that highlights the most notable games coming out this month, at least at the time of publishing. This includes not only brand-new releases, but noteworthy ports as well.
