Happy New Year, everyone! I hope you had a wonderful holiday. We’ve finally turned the calendar to 2019 and it’s time to find out how we’re starting the new year. Here’s what’s launching in January.
For many, January begins and ends with one game: Resident Evil 2. Using the updated engine established by Resident Evil 7, RE2 is a remake of the classic game only with stunning visuals and other modern enhancements. Come relive the adventures of Jill Valentine and a young Leon Kennedy as they go up against the horrors of the T-virus and Tyrant.
In what once was potential vaporware and the butt of many release style jokes, Kingdom Hearts 3 is finally launching. Originally teased all the way back in 2013, it’s been an incredibly long journey for the team at Square Enix. Hopefully, this journey ends with a strong finish.
We’re kicking January 2019 off in style, though wait until you see some of the names coming next month. But that’s a story for another day. As always, you can see the full January release schedule below the break. Enjoy!

Oh man, Resident Evil 2 AND Kingdom Hearts III are releasing within 4 days of each other? Oh no…I thought there would be at least a couple weeks of breathing room! 😀
Never. Can’t happen.
It really can’t can it? It’s always weeks of nothing followed by a bunch of releases all at once.
I guess that can’t be helped.
Anyway, the Nintendo Switch was ahead of PlayStation 4 early in January 2019. However, it was the release of Resident Evil 2 and Kingdom Hearts III by late January that dethroned the Nintendo Switch.
@Derek Thanks for the heads up!
Thanks for reading!
