1. Starfield (September 6, 2023)
Set in the year 2330, Starfield takes you beyond our solar system to explore new planets as part of Constellation – a group of space explorers seeking rare artifacts across the galaxy. In Bethesda Game Studios' grandest undertaking yet, get ready to navigate the boundless cosmos this September.
Now THIS is the most hyped game in a while. With all the previews so far on the Internet, the game is being teased as Game of the Year (GOTY) material but knowing Bethesda and its history with shoddy releases, here's hoping that the expectation meets reality. Excited for this and will definitely keep a look out but I'm fully expecting that the first month will be a LOT of bug fixes.

2. Payday 3 (September 21, 2023)
Get ready to step back into the high-stakes world of heists with PAYDAY 3. As a member of the infamous Payday Gang, you'll execute perfectly planned co-op robberies that are unmatched in the gaming world. With the crew reassembling years after their DC reign, brace for another round of high-octane, law-enforcement evading action this September.
Personally, I've spent almost a hundred hours in PAYDAY 2 but I couldn't keep up with the DLC cycle. After playing the beta for PAYDAY 3 however, I can't wait for the new mechanics though I'm cautiously optimistic of its microtransaction mechanics.

3. Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty (September 26, 2023)
In the spy-thriller DLC, Phantom Liberty, for Cyberpunk 2077, step into the shoes of V, a cyberpunk for hire, on a mission to save the President in Night City's deadliest district. Unravel political intrigue, espionage, and mercenaries' world in this captivating September expansion.
Now for something 'new'. We all know that the launch of Cyberpunk 2077 was a horror show but 2 years on, it's been smooth sailing with the game being in a much better state. Phantom Liberty is a chance for the game to really make its mark with overhauls to game systems meant to enable players to really embrace the Cyberpunk lifestyle. As someone who hated the game initially but did a full 180 once I replayed it earlier this year, I'm excited for what's to come.
