The year is waning and soon we'll be standing at the starting line of 2025. And wouldn't you know it, there are going to be more new game releases in 2025. If you're already looking ahead on your calendar and planning the games of your future to-play backlog, we can help you out with a lot of likely candidates. We're tracking all the new games of 2025 that you'll want to know about as they announce release dates and then (inevitably) as some of those release dates get delayed.
As with the last few years, the beginning of 2025 is the beneficiary of at least one pretty big RPG delay that scooted into the new year to avoid a crowded end of 2024 schedule. Avowed wound up with a February 2025 release date where it's—well, actually now it's just sandwiched by some other really big releases in February like Civilization 7, Assassin's Creed: Shadows, and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Keep this page bookmarked to find out if anyone chickens out of that gridlock of a release week.
The biggest games of 2025
What's the forecast for the new games of 2025?
There's no doubt that 2025 is going to feel like a much bigger year in gaming than 2024 has. This year brought us some smash hit surprises like Palworld and Helldivers 2 but we were noticeably lacking a single major release to really act as the gravitational pull for the year. Next year isn't going to have that problem.
In 2025, GTA 6 will likely be the biggest release of the year. Though it doesn't have a release date yet, Rockstar is targeting 2025. As for whether we'll be playing it on PC next year, well we aren't holding our breath. Beyond the next major Rockstar release, 2025 is already stuffed full of other long-awaited sequels in major game series. It's going to feel a lot more like 2023: the summer that brought us Diablo 4, Baldur's Gate 3, and Starfield all right on top of each other. Here's a quick reference of the biggest games launching in 2025:
Biggest games launching in 2025
Grand Theft Auto 6 | 2025 Easily the most widely-anticipated launch expected in 2025, Rockstar is returning to Vice City with a Bonnie and Clyde-inspired crime couple. So long as there aren't any delays, and there yet may be, this will be the biggest launch of the calendar year.
Doom: The Dark Ages | 2025 The next part of one of the most influential FPS series is yanking Doom guy back to a grim fantasy medieval-like prequel setting in The Dark Ages. With any luck, this will be the third great Doom game in a decade.
Civilization 7 | February 11 The next game in this foundational 4X series is bringing big changes to Civilization. This time Firaxis is focused on a "layered" approach to history with fewer, longer ages and morphing into a new civilization at the dawn of each age.
Assassin's Creed Shadows | February 14 Assassin's Creed is finally headed to Japan and will continue the series' journey back to its roots. Unlike the open world action Creed games of the past several years, Shadows is following after Mirage by prioritizing stealth again.
Avowed | February 18 Obsidian's next major RPG is an open-world fantasy set in the Pillars of Eternity universe. Though Obsidian may not want everyone to call this its version of Skyrim, it sort of is. More importantly though, we think the differences make it compelling.
Monster Hunter Wilds | February 28 Wilds looks like it may be the cherry on top of a several year run of great Monster Hunter games. It looks like the evolution from Monster Hunter World that we were hoping for with a more responsive, simulated open world of monsters to hunt.
Death Stranding 2 | 2025 Sam Bridges sets out on another open-world adventure to reconnect an apocalyptic landscape and save humanity from extinction. By the looks of things it will be just as weird as any Kojima game. Now we just need to wait and see if we'll get to play it on PC in the same year.
