From cutting edge tech and incredible game experiences to Unreal Engine 5 and all the new ways to play, here’s our rundown of six reasons to be excited for PC gaming in 2022. Sponsored by Alienware.
PC gaming is as popular as ever, with loads of PC exclusives and console games playable. This year alone sees the release of a number of highly anticipated PC games: Nightingale, Company of Heroes 3, Homeworld 3, Starfield, Redfall, joining already released titles such as God of War, Elden Ring and Lost Ark. PC gamers also have new ways to play with the recent release of the Steam Deck. VR continues to be best played on PC and upcoming VR games The Last Clockwinder and The Exorcist Legion VR SIN will continue that trend.
Both Intel and AMD are set to release new CPUs for desktops and laptops, and Intel is also putting out a GPU in the form of Arc Graphics card. Nvidia is significantly upgrading its laptop GPUs as well, promising 1440p gaming at upwards of 100 fps via portable versions of its 3080 Ti and 3070 Ti cards. PC Game Pass continues to be great value and offers hundreds of PC games to play, and PlayStation are now releasing their console exclusive titles on PC, starting with Horizon Zero Dawn and God of War, and in 2022 Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection. Unreal Engine 5 has been released and new games will be coming out this year using UE5 for the first time.

IGN: 6 reasons to be excited for PC Gaming in 2022
Me with no money: *that sounds really exciting*
@N what do u mean?? What type of questions are you asking 🤦😂
@Madhavan why laptops?
@N what why??
@Madhavan why them?
@N laptops… Short and sweet 😅
honestly this feels like the build up to something even better for next year. like they are ironing out things before they really try to change things.
honestly it always feels like that. probably because massive technology leaps are few and far between compared to early generation technology gaps.
Biggest reason:- we might be able to afford a GPU
1. Game Pass is going to come to Steam
2. PlayStation is actively working on porting exclusives to PC
3. Many game launchers are being dropped (Less launchers = minimal library usage).
4. Emulate practically every console up to Xbox 360 and PS3.
5. Easy modding in mostly every game.
6. PC tech taking huge strides in performance.
Ghost of tsushima pc port would be very much appreciated.
Already leaked by NVIDIA leak 7 months ago so far half of leaks already confirmed its happening. Also Horizon Forbidden West incoming later this year for PC.
@Andrew Allen due to the low computation power of ps4. Pc port might have more trees ,animals and people.
The open world is empty
@absence Any word on bloodborne pc port?
Comes in 2024 Q3 aorn
It should also be mentioned that the Xbox app on PC is ACTUALLY usable now! The app has received more major updates in the past 2-3 months than it did in 2 years!
Does not work for me
Still super laggy feels like clicking on anything causes my pc to lag for some reason
Me pricing out the parts for a new rig in 2022:…nah, I’m gonna wait a bit longer.

The excitement never stops with pc gaming. 🤭🤫

im getting a steam deck later this year
I’m really just excited for GeForce now, just need better internet.
If you could walk into a brick and mortar and buy a base model Steam Deck for $400, it would open up a whole new market of adoption for console gamers to get their foot in the door of PC gaming.
This will be the future of gaming console’s PS6 pc gaming console 👍✌️ ❤️🌍
1 reason not to be: hardware prices.
Need more PC Exclusives that push the graphics boundary

@Arkopravo Sarkar lol no.
@dorsets more like a 2060.
@Arkopravo Sarkar lmao youre dreaming. the Series X & PS5 both share similar power to the 2070
@Arkopravo Sarkar neither.
My 2080 Super and Ryzen 7 5800x is going strong! No need for a next gen console with Playstation and Xbox bringing their games overtime.
Now give me an rtx 3070 at msrp !!
@Poof heh? In my county it starts at 1420
