Here’s a curated rundown, including dates and platforms, of some of the biggest (or potentially so) video games arriving in 2017. I’ve only listed titles with official release dates, but if you bookmark this page, we’ll update it at as new information arrives, including adding in the dozens of titles projected for a 2017 release as they pop. We’ve also included pre-order links where applicable.

Note as well that the year’s two big hardware releases are currently Nintendo Switch (NTDOY) (a mobile/home console hybrid) on March 3, and Microsoft’s Xbox Scorpio (MSFT) (a souped up, 4K-angled Xbox One) sometime “holiday 2017.”
