January brings some interesting games, through the RPG genre, FPS and simulators, with titles for all current platforms. Remember that these are not all releases of the month, which can surprise with some independent pearl still unknown.
Previously released only in Japan, Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Future Tone comes to PS4 continuing the musical franchise Sega . With over 200 songs available, the game allows the player to accompany the melodies in a gameplay very similar to that seen in previous titles in the series.
In addition to the music, players can explore more than 300 outfits for the characters. The game should be released in a split format, with reduced price for each part, or as a bundle with all its contents.
For years, fans ask for EA to create a sequel to Road Rash, racing series with bikes that brings a lot of speed and beatings for the games. As the company does not seem to have the game as one of its priorities, the staff of Pixel Dash Studios created Road Redemption , a sort of spiritual successor game. Previously released in its Early Access version on the PC now, the title comes to consoles.
The game has a more arcade gameplay, like the EA series, but beyond fighting with clubs and chains also bring firearms to the races, making it even more chaotic. Road Redemption must come to Xbox One and PS4.
Dragon Quest 8: Journey of the Cursed King brings news for fans of RPG that have ventured in past generations. The version for the portable Nintendo brings a story larger than the original, as well as dubbing, two new characters, side quests, StreetPass and an alternate ending.
Simulators to build and manage a city there are long, but Urban Empire wants to try to differentiate this genre by adding a bit of history and politics into the equation.
The game, which will be released for PCs, puts the player in control of a family for 200 years. Your goal is to build and operate a city, browsing the local policy to continue in power and present technological advances and urban planners to the metropolis.

If you are a fan of the series (and can understand these titles that do not make much sense to those who never played Kingdom Hearts), the remastering is ideal to wait for the release of Kingdom Hearts 3.
Resident Evil 7 brings a new gameplay (now in first person) and a much more focused plot terror and suspense, leaving a little aside the machinations of known characters and attention sometimes overstated in times of action.
Still, fans of the franchise need not despair, since Capcom announced that commonalities between games will be seen in RE7, which at first glance does not seem to have much connection with the overall plot of the series, but who keeps secrets to final version.
