I can tell you for sure this time that I’ll definitely be picking up one game this upcoming month day one and I’ve actually been waiting for it for a while now. As a hint, I’ll tell you that it was announced during an E3 event this year. Any guess’s yet? I’ll let you know what game it is after the break down of what’s coming out this upcoming month.
*Just as a side note, my list of October releases is not perfect. There might be some missing, or some dates may change. If you have anything you want to add feel free to let me know in the comments and I’ll include it in the list.*

So by now you probably know what game that is going to be my most anticipated for the month and the one that I will be pre-ordering and making sure that I have it day one to play. It’s Just Dance 2017. And right now I’m hoping that you read that and were like, “Wait, what?”. If you were, then kudos for me, if you just rolled your eyes then that kinda sucks, but anyway while I will not be waiting on baited breath for Just Dance 2017, I will be anxiously awaiting The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition. Even though I have it for the PS3, I never got a chance to actually finish it no matter how much I enjoyed it and I’m hoping that this time around will be different.
Here’s my running list of games that I’ll be looking for during holiday sale time, minus the games that I’ve already purchased. I want to mention that I did get one game, Tom Clancy’s The Division, at a really good price which is the only reason why I got it in the first place before the holiday sales.
• LEGO: Marvel’s Avengers
• Alekhine’s Gun
• Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2
• Republique
• Tales from the Borderlands – PS3
• Overwatch
• BioShock: The Collection
• Mafia III
• Rise of the Tomb Raider – I’m not paying full price for a game that’s already been released on another platform first.
Now it’s your turn, the list of game releases is huge for October. Huge. Especially with all of the brand new games coming out along with the remasters thrown in there for good measure. What will you be picking up day one this month if anything at all? Will you be buying into the VR hype that October is filled with? Let me know in the comments section below.
