Every year, tons of games launch for various platforms. Games like God of War, The Legend of Zelda, and Super Mario sell millions of copies and break numerous sales records while simultaneously earning some rave reviews.

However, aside from them, many indie games launch too. Out of these, some of them get the traction they deserve, while others turn into underrated, lesser-known classics. If you are interested in such small games, here are 5 indie games coming in 2023 not to be missed at any cost!

Goodbye Volcano High

This is a mystery game wrapped in the thin layer of a social simulator starring some really interesting characters. All characters are a bunch of anthropomorphic animals, presented in very beautiful-looking 2D visuals. From its trailers, it looks like its soundtrack would be something special too.

Replaced

Replaced is a very dark 2D platformer set in the near future. From the trailers, it appears as if this game would have some fugitive kind of story to tell. This would be cleared soon enough, but one thing that is already looking pretty cool is this game’s visuals.

The game looks creepy and is set in a Victorian London-esque city. The best part is that this game is a Soulsborne title.
