Given how great 2023 was for game releases, there are undoubtedly some games that you missed. Looking past the major releases like Spider-Man 2, Alan Wake 2, Starfield, and Resident Evil 4, there were many titles released within the AA and indie space that may have flown under your radar. Below, we will highlight four titles that we reckon are well worth a second look if they passed you by the first time.

Lakeith Stanfield has entered into negotiations to star in and produce a feature adaptation of the hit neo-noir video game ‘El Paso, Elsewhere’.
The story will follow James Savage (Stanfield), who, while recovering from a toxic relationship, confronts both his inner demons and enigmatic ex-girlfriend, Janet, before she executes a world-ending ritual. James navigates her reality-bending universe of ethereal monsters while facing the truth of his own addictions and skewed sense of self-worth, learning that the only route to love is through healing.

An indie action game akin to Max Payne, El Paso, Elsewhere is to become a film, with Lakeith Stanfield in talks to star.
Developed by indie studio Strange Scaffold – headed up by designer Xalavier Nelson Jr – third-person action videogame El Paso, Elsewhere was released to glowing reviews in 2023. Less than a year later, the Max Payne-esque shooter is to be adapted into a movie, it’s been announced.
Producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventura has picked up the rights to the game though his company – the logically-named Di Bonaventura Pictures – meaning it’ll share a figurative stable with such properties as Transformers and GI Joe.
According to Variety, Lakeith Stanfield – whose latest film, the irreverent comedy The Book Of Clarence, is in UK cinemas now – is to star in the adaptation.
El Paso, Elsewhere is about a vampire hunter named James Savage, whose ex-girlfriend – named Draculae – is rather awkwardly a vampire herself.
