There is no section for tv releases[edit]

There is a subsection for films related to videogames, but no such section for all the tv-series and animations that were based on games this year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:982:3678:1:18EE:868A:CBBF:3F98 (talk) 18:16, 30 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

This probably should be a combined section, as to add things like Arcane. --Masem (t) 18:22, 30 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Elden Ring, Dying Light 2, Starfield[edit]

Have we got enough to add these into the unknown date list? With Dying Light 2 devs have said 'hopefully in 2021'. I think Starfield for 2021 was hinted at by Pete Hines. And Elden Ring seems to be rumored for 2021. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.110.127.48 (talk) 09:27, 10 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Link bomb in lead[edit]

Does the lead really just have to be a complete ocean of bluelinked serieses? Its pretty pointless information. A lead like 2020's would be much better, maybe describing expected changes to the industry and a couple of major expected releases. Nixinova T C 18:33, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Has been dealt with. Nixinova T C 06:45, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ayo the clown[edit]

Ayo the clown came out in 2021. It's not on the list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:800C:1CF0:8AD0:143E:469:B0FE:8BF6 (talk) 00:42, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Missing game on December section?[edit]

Could someone add Among Us on the December section of the October-December table? It seems to have been missing. Thanks. Paramount1106 (talk) 17:39, 22 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

First released information[edit]

It would be really nice if there was information about whether the particular date is the first time the game was ever released. I am willing to do the work but not sure if a separate column is the best way of doing this. --Jonathan Strange (talk) 16:58, 9 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Where’s the highest grossing games of the year?[edit]

There’s no highest grossing games listed besides mobile games 2601:189:C480:FCC0:E5C7:9077:132C:3FEE (talk) 02:29, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

These lists usually take a month or so for the firms that make them to compile all the data. We will be watching for them to add them once they are released. --Masem (t) 02:39, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It seems like the data is already out;

Can we get it added? Phoenixey (talk) 12:32, 22 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
