What video games are coming out in 2024?
|
(Pocket-lint) - There are plenty of incredible games coming to PC this year and beyond. From upcoming triple-A games to highly hyped gems, there's plenty to look forward to, whatever your gaming passion. Show
Whatever your platform of choice - Steam, Epic, Ubisoft Connect or Origin, there are loads of new PC games to add to your wishlist as well. These new games include bleeding-edge titles with ray tracing capabilities, as well as updates to your favourite RPGs, shooters and co-op masterpieces. The following is a hand-picked selection of games we've seen and are excited about. We're sure you will be too.
Goat Simulator 3
Coffee Stain has hilariously revealed that it's working on the next instalment of Goat Simulator, skipping Goat Simulator 2 and going straight into the third. Also amusingly the trailer has Dead Island 2 vibes, though we hope this game doesn't take as long to appear. The latest trailer pitches your chance to pre-order as pre-udder and gives a hilarious view of the daftness of the game. Crysis Remaster Trilogy
The rest of the Crysis remastered trilogy is coming to Steam. If you miss the hazy days of the Crysis experience you'll soon be able to relive it with glorious enhanced visuals. Warhammer 40,000: Darktide
Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is pitched as a "visceral" four-player co-op action game with healthy amounts of FPS action too. In this one, you'll be playing with your friends fighting off hordes of enemies to defend the city before it succumbs to Chaos. This Warhammer 40K game was originally set to release a tad earlier this year but has now been pushed back a bit. Atomic Heart
A quirky, gory and fairly awesome-looking FPS set in an alternative universe in the heart of the Soviet Union. Players will take on the role of a special agent who has been sent a highly secret object and is desperately trying to investigate what's going on. Weird creatures, robots and a multitude of customisable weapons certainly make this one appear intriguing if nothing else. Forza Motorsport
Five years after the release of Forza Motorsport 7 the next game in the franchise is appearing. This is essentially Forza Motorsport 8 but by another name. Fans of the series will be pleased to hear that several tracks are making a comeback including Maple Valley, Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps and Laguna Seca Raceway. The new Motorsport release is also promising dynamic lighting and weather conditions as well, so that should keep things interesting. Star Trek: Resurgence
Former Telltale Games developers are crafting a narrative adventure game in the Star Trek universe. Set in the era of Star Trek: The Next Generation it's bound to appeal to Star Trek fans. Gord
Gord is a single-player, adventure-strategy game that's inspired by Slavic folklore rich with eerie forbidden lands and mythical creatures. Your mission will be to grow a settlement and keep it safe in this harsh world. The Last of Us Part 1
Sony is doing it again. The company has revealed that another of its popular PlayStation games is making its way to PC. The Last Of Us Part 1 is a remake that's coming to PC at some point and will give PC gamers access to another classic. Forspoken
Forspoken throws Frey Holland into a magical land full of danger, spell casting and really wild adventures. Forspoken promises an unforgettable journey and a really good looking one at that. Dead Space Remake
Dead Space is getting a remake from the ground up with EA's Frostbite engine and is set to release in early 2023. The plan is apparently to keep the vision of the original but with expanded audio and more. Hogwarts Legacy
Hogwarts Legacy is an upcoming action role-playing video game. It is set in the late 1800s in and establishes itself in the Wizarding World set by the Harry Potter books. As you'd expect you'll be casting spells, discovering fantastic beasts and generally wizarding about the place. Company of Heroes 3
Company of Heroes is coming back. This time with a Mediterranean campaign where you'll be commanding ground, air and naval forces too. This new addition to the series promises authentic new gameplay features as well as everything you know and love from Company of Heroes including skirmishes, a campaign and multiplayer. New soldier animations, enhanced AI, realistic squad reactions and a destructible environment should make Company of Heroes 3 a joy for any fan of the series. A recent cinematic trailer shows the African campaign and there's an in-depth look into gameplay too. The Day Before
The Day Before is pitched as a third-person, open-world, zombie survival shooter. In a post-pandemic America, where you'll be facing off against both flesh-eating infected and other humans who are desperate to survive. Sound familiar? Skull & Bones
Assassin's Creed: Black Flag proved incredibly popular and spiked interest in pirating based-shenanigans on the high seas. Since then, we've seen Sea of Thieves and the hilarity of Blackwake but Ubisoft's Skull & Bones is making waves in the build-up to launch. The latest trailer shows the customisation options for the ships and all sorts of unbridled chaos too. Become the pirate captain you've always wanted to be and battle on the high seas on your own or with up to five other players. Grease the gangplank and ready the mainsail, this is surely going to be a glorious grog-swilling romp. Ubisoft has announced that it's pushing back the release date of Skull and Bones to give it some more polish. System Shock
Nightdive Studios is set to remake and reboot the classic sci-fi adventure System Shock sometime in the near future. The developers are promising a new game that's true to the original while being given a refresh with modern visuals and gameplay. Fans of the series will be pleased to hear the original voice actor is returning too. The original game released in 1994, so this reboot is a long time coming and should certainly be an interesting one. System Shock 3 is also being developed, so we've got that to look forward to as well. Starfield
Starfield was teased by Bethesda in June 2018 as the first new franchise in 25 years. But that's not the exciting part, Starfield is set to be a space-based RPG with plenty of glorious fun in the depths of space. Beyond that, we don't know much other than we're excited. It is now available to wishlist on Steam though. Bethesda has announced it's moving the release to the first half of 2023. Starfield is set to feature the biggest world Bethesda has created with over 1,000 worlds for gamers to explore. So plenty to do and see. The latest gameplay trailer shows off a lot of what to expect and what to get excited for.
Ark 2
ARK 2 is pitched as a "definitive next-gen survival experience". It's a follow-on from Ark: Survival Evolved and stars Vin Diesel fighting for survival in a primal world filled with dinosaurs and danger. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chernobyl
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is making a return with a promise of being "one of the biggest seamless open-worlds to date." - a blend of horror, FPS and atmospheric sim, it's also said to have an epic story with multiple endings. Awesome stuff. The latest gameplay shows a staggeringly beautiful view of a horrific world. You'll have over thirty weapons at your disposal, to deal with all manner of horrifying mutated monsters and there's a multiplayer too. State of Decay 3
State of Decay 3 has been revealed, though we're only really seeing a tease of it at the moment. Still we're pleased to see another outing in the series is on the horizon.
The Outlast Trials
If you played and enjoyed the horrific thrills of Outlast and Outlast 2, then buckle up for more. The Outlast Trials is a survival horror that you can play alone or with up to four other people. Set during the Cold War in a place of distrust, fear, and violence you're thrust into a world where people are being subjected to brainwashing and mind control. All sorts of terror ensue. Dead Matter
Dead Matter is in the very early stages but appears to be an interesting concept that takes the Escape From Tarkov gameplay style and throws it into a zombie-infested world. This should certainly make for some interesting and intense gaming and a fresh twist on the zombie genre. Warhammer 40,000: SPACE MARINE 2
Another Warhammer game in the pipeline. This time you'll be taking on the role of a Space Marine, holding off the horrors of the galaxy in epic battles. Perfect Dark
The original Perfect Dark has a special place in the hearts of gamers who can still remember Goldeneye 007 fondly. It was a great game for that era and we're excited to see it returning. The Expanse: A Telltale Series
Telltale Games is working with Deck Nine, creators of Life is Strange: True Colors on a game set in The Expanse universe. Set before the TV series, you'll be playing Camina Drummer (voiced by actress Cara Gee from the show) and dealing with mutiny, treasure hunts and more. The Outer Worlds 2
The sequel to the superb space-based RPG The Outer Worlds has been teased. We have no details on when it'll be available but we're excited! Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2
Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 is the follow up to 2017's fantastic Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. A psychological action-adventure with a rich and dark story that was essentially a dive into insanity via Viking Hell. The first game was utterly sublime, so we're expecting more of the same from the sequel. This time it's exclusive for PC and Xbox Series X. Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2
The follow-up to 2004's awesome Vampire: The Masquerade - The Bloodlines is coming in 2021. The previous game was an utter RPG masterpiece packed full of vampires, dark alleyways and rich characters. The new game is written by the same creative genius behind that game, so we're expecting more of the same here. Sadly it's not looking good for this game at the moment after Paradox Interactive pulled Hardsuit Labs from the development and has postponed pre-orders. End State
End State is set a to be an interesting early access game coming later this year. It uses turn-based play allowing you to manage a mercenary company tracking down terrorists. There's the promise of an open-world experience where you get to pick and choose the missions you play in a world with destructible environments that include bullet penetration and more. An interesting ballistics simulation system and enemy reaction system should make this an interesting game for sure. Phantom Brigade
Phantom Brigade is a turn-based tactical RPG, that promises a cinematic spin on the genre. This game will also have a focus on in-depth customisation and player-driven stories. It will be your mission to lead The Brigade through a hard-fought campaign to retake their homeland. Last Man Sitting
Last Man Sitting is probably the most ridiculous Battle Royale game you're ever likely to see. Smartly dressed sit in green office chairs armed to the teeth. Shotguns, ragdoll psychics and a slippery floor are bound to make for plenty of shenanigans and much hilarity. The Elder Scrolls VI
Elder Scrolls fans have been waiting impatiently for a sequel to Skyrim for what might seem like forever. Now we finally have proof that The Elder Scrolls VI is coming at some point, we just don't know much beyond that. Exciting times lie ahead though.
Dead Island 2
Dead Island 2 has been thought dead for a while, but Deep Silver has suggested it is still in the works. We certainly would be thrilled to see a brilliant second outing for Dead Island. The original was an awesome zombie-slaying adventure that we loved when we first played it on PC. Weapon crafting, a bright and unusual island location and zombies in bathing costumes, this game had it all. The new trailer doesn't show much, but it certainly looks like there's going to be some of the same hilarity and good times. We've heard more rumblings about Dead Island 2 recently, with suggestions that it's going to be an Epic Store exclusive. Smalland
What would you if you found yourself shrunk down to a minute size where trees were suddenly the size of skyscrapers and even simple blades of grass tower overhead? That's the world of Smalland and wonderful adventures await including running from packs of rats, trying to survive in a strange new world and even riding wasps as mounts. Smalland promises multiplayer survival like no other, with a wonderful sandbox, hidden quests and NPCs to meet and much more besides. Sounds amazing. Manor Lord
Manor Lords is an indie medieval strategy game with "realistic" city building, battles and the promise of a full building freedom which should be thoroughly enjoyable. Everything is medieval too. Youll need oxen to plough the fields, you'll have to herd sheep and fight battles too. Looks like fun. Kerbal Space Program 2
Kerbal Space Program is back, with a sequel to the highly thought of space-flight simulation game coming some time in 2020. If you enjoyed the sandbox fun of the first game, then you're bound to found the new game a blast. There's the promise of exciting new parts, colony building, interstellar travel and enhanced modding along with breath-taking visuals and a multiplayer system too. Alan Wake 2
Alan Wake 2 is being teased and we're beyond excited. It looks like the new addition to the series lives up to the classic Remedy Entertainment masterpiece with an intense atmospheric experience and a wonderful psychological story too. Crysis 4
Crytek has announced that it's working on Crysis 4. It's in the early stages of development at the moment but is promising to be "a truly next-gen shooter". What that means we'll have to wait and see. Project 007
If you enjoy Bond, then this is bound to thrill. From the creators of the Hitman series is coming a James Bond game which is said to feature not only a "...wholly original Bond story" but an origin one at that. Count us in. Kingpin: Reloaded
If, like us, you're old enough to remember 1999's Kingpin: Life of Crime, then you might be pleased to hear that the controversial game is getting a remaster later this year. This reboot will add 4K and ultrawide support, as well as rebalanced gameplay, yet keeps the same classic aesthetic. We're looking forward to reliving the hazy days. Splinter Cell Remake
A Splinter Cell Remake is in development. It's early days, but if you've been waiting to jump back into the shoes of Sam Fisher then this is bound to get you excited. We certainly are!
