January's all packed up for another year, so it's time to see what excellent games you need on your radar this February.

There are horror biggies like Reanimal and Resident Evil Requiem, beautifully bookending the month with some blood and gore. The return of Leon Kennedy and the introduction of Grace Ashcroft as dual protagonists with uniquely different playstyles should make for quite the Resi game.

There's a hotly anticipated new Warbond for Helldivers 2 or the console release for Death Howl, an open-world deck builder that originally dropped in the middle of December madness exclusively on PC and is well worth your time.

There's the Switch 2 exclusive Mario Tennis Fever with its biggest roster of playable characters in the series' history, or Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined, a remake that's shot high up the wishlist of several GamesRadar+ staffers.

Nioh 3 and High on Life 2 drop as sequels plenty are excited for, with the latter following straight on from the original with a new quest across the galaxy with talking guns for friends.

Brilliant compact RPG Avowed hits PS5 having previously been an Xbox and PC excluisve too, so it's a pretty big month for gamers.
