There’s no doubt that Elden Ring is currently the most anticipated game of the year. The FromSoftware title just proved it once again as it reached the number one spot on Steam’s wishlist. Hidetaka Miyazaki’s ambitious project dethroned another highly awaited game, Dying Light 2: Stay Human.

Steam’s Top 10 wishlisted games featured mostly PlayStation-supported titles in comparison to Xbox. But all of them will be coming to PC, that’s why they made it to the list in the first place.

But Elden Ring edging past Dying Light 2 is surely no big surprise since it was obvious to happen. And the fantasy RPG is almost here!

Elden Ring is on top of Steam’s 2022 wishlist chart

Speaking of the awaited games of the year, then the most notable contenders are definitely Dying Light 2, Starfield, and Elden Ring. Santa Monica’s God of War: Ragnarok is also there but it wasn’t present in Steam’s wishlist. Simply because the title will be a PlayStation exclusive. However, its predecessor, 2018’s God of War, did make it to the top wishlisted games.
