Unique upcoming games (that you haven't heard about)

NYKRA. It will release on 27 Sep and was in development for about 8 years, I think.
This is an updated trailer from a week ago (it's newer than the store page right now).

Let's play video

My verdict: not bad for a free to play student project

Stumbled on this earlier today :)

Merek's Market

A chaotic crafting game about running a medieval shop. Take ownership of a small shop as you haggle, barter and craft your way through a comical single player campaign or team up with friends to supply the whole town.

ExeKiller - https://store.steampowered.com/app/1701840/ExeKiller/

Retro futuristic, single player, action adventure game with western vibes. You are a bounty hunter trying to survive in dystopian, post-apocalyptic world.

Reminds me a lot of 90s era cyberpunk adventure games.

I dunno about "Unique", but here's some upcoming games that look cool:

RIPOUT - Online Co-Op, Horror, FPS.
Survive with your trusty Pet Gun companion, collect loot, and customize your character to fit your playstyle.

Project MIKHAIL - Mecha, Action.
Project MIKHAIL lets you pilot a Tactical Surface Fighter in the war to save humanity!

Broken Roads - SRPG
Narrative-driven RPG that brings exploration, strategic turn-based combat and meaningful philosophical choices to an all-new Australian post-apocalyptic setting.

Omno is a great & beautiful puzzle adventure game.

The Artful Escape 🎶

I don't know how unique it is, but this one looks cool and I definitely had never heard of it:

Severed Steel

A stylish single-player FPS featuring a fluid stunt system, destructible voxel environments, loads of bullet time, a unique one-armed protagonist, and a dark electronic soundtrack.
