XCOM 2 – Feb. 5 (PC, Mac, Linux)
This sequel to Firaxis’ hit turn-based strategy game will once again test the mettle of players through difficult battles against aliens invading earth.

Dying Light: The Following – Feb. 9 (PS4, Xbox One, PC)
Released a year ago, the first-person zombie shooter will receive a huge expansion with The Following coming next month. Although it’s only an expansion, it will introduce a lot of new things to Dying Light, including a new map, a new buggy and leveling elements.
Street Fighter V – Feb. 16 (PS4, PC)
One of the most popular fighting games will be receiving a new title next month with Capcom’s upcoming Street Fighter V. The game will have a total of 16 characters on launch featuring four newcomers to the franchise. Additionally, there are six characters scheduled to release post-launch.

The popular 3DS RPG will make a triumphant return next month with Fire Emblem Fates. The game will have a total of three titles.
