Platform(s): PS5, Xbox Series X, PC
Release date: Feb 2, 2024
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League sees you playing as our squad of chaotic semi-heroes. Squad up as Harley Quinn, King Shark, Deadshot, or Captain Boomerang, with bots or other players taking the role of the other four as you play. Set in the Batman: Arkham universe, Rocksteady has already said this is a continuation of the previous games, so prepare to see some existing threads and storylines come to fruition.

Helldivers 2 is a third-person shooter and sequel to the original Helldivers, which was a twin-stick shooter from back in 2015. The game from developer Arrowhead sees players take on hostile bug-like alien creatures with advanced technology and looks honestly quite a bit like Starship Troopers.

Life is Strange and Vampyr developer Dontnod is preparing a new action-RPG, with this one set in the frozen wilderness of North America in 1695.

Skull and Bones
Platform(s): PS5, Xbox Series X, PC
Release date: February 16, 2024
Sea of Thieves isn't the only open-world pirate game out there - Ubisoft's Skull and Bones is also setting sail, with a much more realistic take on pirate battles on the high seas. Skull and Bones is basically Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag without the Assassins, as it's being developed by much of the same team behind Black Flag, and promises a sweeping solo campaign as you vie for control over the 18th-century waters in the Indian Ocean. But the real focus looks to be player-versus-player ship skirmishes online, where each player controls their very own warship in team-based fleet battles. There will also be supernatural elements amidst all the cannon-fire, like the colossal tentacles of a terrifying kraken lurking in the deep.
Nightingale
Platform(s): PC
Release date: February 22, 2024
Nightingale comes from former BioWare boss Aaryn Flynn. First revealed during the Game Awards 2021, Nightingale is described as a "shared-world survival game" that takes place in a Victorian fantasy setting. Sounds intriguing, doesn't it? You'll be able to play the survival adventure solo or with friends and other players you meet in the world. According to the official site, testing is set to go live sometime next year, so it looks like we can expect to see a Beta at some stage.

Developer: Square Enix
Platform(s): PS5
Release date: February 29, 2024
Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 2 is officially titled Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. Cloud is set to make his long-awaited return in 2023, with Square Enix teasing quite the shift from the original FF7 plot. Given that Crisis Core's Zack featured so prominently in the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth reveal trailer, you might want to check out the Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 Reunion remaster that's set to later this year to get all caught up on the story. Otherwise, we'll be waiting until 2024 before we can get our hands on Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 2, as we found out during this year's Summer Game Fest.

Platform(s): PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S
Release date: March 20, 2024
Jodie Comer and David Harbour star as Emily Hartwood and Edward Carnby, respectively, in the new Alone in the Dark from THQ Nordic. Described as a love letter to the '90s cult classic horror game, it's set in the 1920s American South with a noir setting and Lovecraftian horror elements woven throughout. It's seen a second delay now that has pushed it even further into 2024, but from what we've seen in our hands-on Alone in the Dark preview, it'll be well worth the wait.
Dragon's Dogma 2
Platform(s): PS5, Xbox Series X, PC
Release date: March 22, 2024
Dragon's Dogma 2 is coming even sooner than we'd dared to anticipate. This long-awaited sequel will be directed once again by Hideaki Itsuno, and the game is being built in the RE Engine – which powered everything from Devil May Cry 5 to Resident Evil Village. RPG fans, take heed: Dragon's Dogma 2 is one of the new games for 2024 you should be most excited for.

Release date: March 22, 2024
Team Ninja is developing a new PS5 exclusive called Rise of the Ronin. The game is set to take place in late 19th century Japan, and will reportedly be a combat focused open-world action-RPG.

Team Ninja is one of the masters of samurai action games, and Rise of the Ronin looks set to continue that tradition.
Princess Peach: Showtime!
Platform(s): Nintendo Switch
Release date: March 22, 2024
It's been far too long since Mario's resident royal got her own mainline game, so Princess Peach Showtime is here to remedy that. Peach will take on various guises in an effort to rescue a theatre from closing down for good in this action-adventure Switch exclusive, and it's looking adorable already.
Black Myth: Wukong
Platforms: PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One
Release date: August 20, 2024
A famous legend enshrined in Chinese mythology is getting the action RPG treatment. Black Myth: Wukong is one of the new games of 2024 we are so keen to see that we simply couldn't wait it out, having gone hands-on in a Black Myth: Wukong preview at Gamescom 2023. Its complex combat systems comprise a host of unique powers, abilities, and combos to bolster the Monkey King's kung fu-inspired melee moves, the latter largely involving whacking foes with a giant bamboo stick. From what we've seen so far, Black Myth is certainly one for fans of the best FromSoftware games to check out when it launches in late 2024.
TBC 2024
33 Immortals
Platform(s): PC, Xbox Series X
Release date: TBC 2024
The second game from Thunder Lotus, the team behind Spiritfarer, 33 Immortals is definitely exploring something different.

Yep, the Fast & Furious star is not only playing a key character in the next-gen survival game, but he's joined series developer Studio Wildcard as an executive producer, having long been a fan of the original game. Goodness knows what that means for the final product… perhaps the dinosaurs were part of our family all along?

Platform(s): Xbox Series X, PC
Release date: TBC 2024
Avowed is a brand new RPG from Obsidian Entertainment, and although it has connects to the Pillars of Eternity games is also able to exist as a standalone entity. You'll be exploring the Living Lands as an envoy of Aedyr, where a plague is spreading to beast and foe alike.
Concord
Platform(s): PS5, PC
Release date: TBC 2024
Technically announced during the May 2023 PlayStation Showcase, relatively little of what Concord actually is has been seen as of yet. It is known that the title from Firewalk Studios is a PvP multiplayer FPS, and it looks like there's some kind of sci-fi, space-based bent to it. Beyond that is anyone's guess at this point.
Dungeons of Hinterberg
Platform(s): Xbox Series X, PC
Release date: TBC 2024
Dungeons of Hinterberg is basically a skateboarding, swordfighting action RPG with a really awesome, colorful art style. Set in the Alpine village of Hinterberg, you are Luisa, a burnt-out law trainee taking a break to conquer the titular dungeons. You'll have to explore the Alps in order to find the dungeons, which are very much looking like Zelda / Monument Valley inspired puzzles with combat thrown in for good measure.
Earthblade
Platform(s): PC
Release date: TBC 2024
The developer behind the legendary Celeste is working on a brand new 2D platformer, titled Earthblade. While it isn't set to launch until 2024, what we have seen of it so far promises lush pixel art, countless mysteries to explore, and a more focused blend of exploration and challenging combat.

Foamstars
Platform(s): PS5, PS4
Release date: TBC 2024
Foamstars from Square Enix is a vibrant, 4v4 party shooter that lets players duke it out using... foam.

Gori: Cuddly Carnage
Platforms: PC, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One
Release date: TBC 2024
As we say in our Gori: Cuddly Carnage preview from Gamescom 2023, Gori is a "self-proclaimed "skate 'n' slash" adventure through a futuristic, neon-lit dystopia". Armed with a sentient skateboard named Frank, this new game coming in 2024 sees you turning evil possessed unicorn toys into bloody piles of gore as you tear through a psychedelic landscape as an adorable ginger kitty. Developer Angry Demon is known for its interest in horror games, but Gori: Cuddly Carnage is more about delightful chaos than all-out terror – as long as you're not scared of a little unicorn blood.
Hollow Knight: Silksong
Platform(s): PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Switch
Release date: TBC 2024
Team Cherry is bringing us another Hollow Knight adventure with Silksong.

Hades 2
Platform(s): PC
Release date: TBC 2024
Hades is one of the best roguelikes of all-time, so it's no surprise that developer Supergiant is hard at work on its first ever sequel. Hades 2 will launch in Early Access in 2024, and it's going to let us battle beyond the Underworld using dark sorcery to take on the sinister Titan of Time. We won't be playing as Zagreus this time though, but rather his sibling – Melinoë, the Princess of the Underworld. Hades 2 could be one of the biggest games of 2024 and beyond, so stay tuned for more.
John Carpenter's Toxic Commando
Platform(s): PC, PS5, Xbox Series X
Release date: TBC 2024
The creator of legendary slasher franchise Halloween is teaming up with Saber Interactive in John Carpenter's Toxic Commando. The trailer dropped during Summer Game Fest 2023, and the black comedy elements are already palpable. Underscored by its characters singing an out-of-tune rendition of You Give Love a Bad Name, Toxic Commando looks like a bloody fun FPS with hordes of shambling zombies to lay to waste. It's been given a ballpark release sometime in 2024, so we'll have to wait for more information on this truly chaotic gore-fest.
Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess
Platform(s): Xbox Series X, PS5, PC
Release date: TBC 2024
A new tale of the Kami awaits in Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, a new game from Capcom. A sacred mountain has been defiled by its residents and has become a physical blight that's summoned horrific (but colorful) creatures called the Seethe.

Platform(s): PC, PS5, Xbox Series X
Release date: TBC 2024
The developer of Life is Strange has another narrative adventure up its sleeve. Dontnod's Lost Records: Bloom and Rage is on the way, a nostalagic 90s throwback that already looks and sounds gorgeous.

Lysfanga: The Time-Shift Warrior
Platform: PC
Release: TBC 2024
Lysfanga: The Time-Shift Warrior is an upcoming action game where you can literally be in two places at once. We got our first taste of it in the accompanying trailer at Summer Game Fest 2023, showcasing frenetic melee combat as well as the unique, astral projection-esque doubling of heroine Lysfanga in action. The gameplay looks similar to that of Hades in all its hack n'slash roguelike glory, and we can't wait to learn more as we await a more solid release date.
Metaphor: ReFantazio
Platform(s): Xbox Series X, PC
Release date: Fall 2024
Metaphor: ReFantazio is a new game from the makers of Persona 3, 4, and 5. It's an ambitious-looking RPG set against a fantasy background. It certainly looks to borrow a few elements from the Persona series, as you'd expect thanks to it coming from the same team. It was given a slightly more concrete release window of Fall 2024, so be on the lookout come October.
Neva
Platform(s): PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch
Release date: TBC 2024
The developer behind GRIS, Nomada Studio, is back with a new adventure that focuses on a young woman named Alba and her bond with a mythical wolf as they go through what's described as a dying world. While she first meets the wolf as a cub, ultimately they end up working together to explore the cursed world and its dangerous environs.
Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2
Platform(s): Xbox Series X
Release Date: TBC 2024
The surprise reveal of the Xbox Series X at The Game Awards also came with the first look at a sequel to the affecting Hellblade - Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 - and quite honestly we've not seen that much of it since. Don't expect Senua's story to have got any lighter since we last saw her. The disconcerting chanting, flashes of foreboding bonfires, and a man seemingly buried in a rock hint at another harrowing journey that will hopefully make as much of an impact as the original.
Silent Hill 2 remake
Platform(s): PS5, PC
Release date: TBC 2024

Set in the DBD universe but featuring a brand new cast of characters, this single-player, choice-led narrative game will see the Dark Pictures developer putting its signature on the Entity's realm.

Beyond Good and Evil 2 is actually a prequel to Jade and Pey'j's journalistic escapades in the original game, taking on a much grander scale in a cyberpunk, Luc Besson-looking future full of high-tech ships and anthropomorphic animals. The lively crew of space pirates in BG&E2's cinematic reveal trailer are just some of many - you'll be starting from scratch with the hopes of one day reaching their level of professional thievery, visiting (and stealing from) the residents of multiple cities on myriad planets.

Expect this to be a little while off though.
Dragon Age: Dreadwolf
Platform(s): TBC
Release date: TBC
The next major project from BioWare, Dragon Age 4 will continue the story left off by 2014's Dragon Age: Inquisition. Now the official title of Dragon Age: Dreadwolf, our return to Thedas will see the return of former companion Solas, only this time Fen' Heral or The Dread Wolf will feature as the upcoming RPG's central antagonist. While we've had some concept art teases and a behind-the-scenes look, there's still a lot of mystery surrounding the direction of the story and what role we'll have to play. We've been told to sit tight and wait for a "full reveal" in 2024, but whether that means the game will come around that time or just marks when we can expect more details on the game is yet to be seen.

Release date: TBC
Everwild is a new IP from Rare exclusively for Xbox One that has already caught our attention thanks to its wonderful art style and enchanting world. We really don't know much about this new adventure yet, but the mystery surrounding it just makes it all the more tantalising. Set in a "natural and magical world," Everwild promises to take us on an unforgettable experience. From the trailer that debuted at X019, it's certainly shaping up to be one to keep an eye on. We can hardly wait to find out more about Everwild's world and the many creatures that appear to inhabit it.
Fable
Platform(s): Xbox Series X/S
Release date: TBC
Forza developer Playground Games is making a hard pivot into RPG territory with the next iteration of Xbox's Fable series, which hasn't seen a mainline entry since 2010's Fable 3.

Indiana Jones
Platform(s): TBC
Release date: TBC
Announced with a teenie teaser trailer, there's a new Indiana Jones game inbound from MachineGames, Bethesda, and Lucasfilm Games. From the clues hidden in the trailer, it looks like we're looking at an Indy story set in 1937, with our whip-touting hero exploring the standing stones and stone circles of Italy. That date puts it after Raiders of the Lost Ark and the Temple of Doom, and yet before The Last Crusade, which is interesting too. From the hints, it may even be that we're looking at the story involving a lost race of giant cyclops too.
Judas
Platform(s): PC
Release date: TBC
When Ken Levine dissolved Irrational Games, he did so out of a desire to create smaller narrative-driven experiences where your choices have true consequences. Judas is Ghost Story Games' first attempt at exactly that, with this upcoming FPS equipped with Big BioShock Vibes and a pretty stunning visual style. It's likely that Judas is still a little ways away, but what we've seen of it so far is certainly impressive. This is one to watch for sure.

Release date: TBC
After starting life as a Kickstarter project, Little Devil Inside actually appeared in the big PS5 showcase in 2020. This is an RPG with survival elements involved, and quite the little sense of humour. It's set in a Victorian-esque era, where you're tasked with discovering - and fighting - a range of bizarre monsters. It looks like quite the romp.

Marvel's Blade
Platform(s): TBC
Release date: TBC
Marvel's Blade is now in the works from Deathloop and Dishonored developer Arkane Studios. We don't know an awful lot about it just yet, save that it'll be a third-person action game that most likely won't release for at least another couple of years, but the teaser trailer shown at The Game Awards 2023 has more than whet our appetites for the vampiric comic book hero's long-awaited return to the video games scene. Let's just hope the studio has learned some lessons from Redfall and keeps this one a single player venture, which we understand at present it very much is.
Marvel's Wolverine
Platform(s): PS5
Release date: TBC
Ok, so we don't know much about the new Marvel's Wolverine game right now, only that it's being made by Spider-Man studio Insomniac and is a PS5 exclusive. We do know that it served up an absolutely kick-ass teaser trailer for its reveal, featuring our favorite clawed grump sat at a bar in the aftermath of a brawl, trying to enjoy a whisky. He's rudely interrupted, and that's when those famous talons make their appearance. We don't even get to see his face in the short snippet, but we're excited anyway.
Mass Effect
Platform(s): TBC
Release date: TBC
In addition to Dragon Age 4, BioWare has also confirmed its returning to the final frontier with a new entry in its long-running Mass Effect series. A brief teaser trailer released at the end of 2020 was all that was needed to get us excited, showing the return of a fan favourite character in Liara, who appears older and wiser than the last time we saw her, and is seemingly on the hunt for Commander Shephard's ship, the Normandy. What could it all mean? BioWare's staying quiet for now, but we're already preparing for launch.
Metroid Prime 4
Platform(s): Switch
Release date: TBC
You know a series is popular when a teaser showing literally nothing besides a numbered logo can garner 2 million views on YouTube. At E3 2017, Nintendo dropped a bombshell by confirming the existence of Metroid Prime 4 - only to later announce that Metroid Prime 4 has been delayed and rebooted as Nintendo passes it to original trilogy dev Retro Studios. It could be a while before we see this one, but it'll hopefully be worth the extra wait.

OD
Platform: Xbox Series X, PC
Release date: TBC
The brief Game Awards look we had at Kojima's latest project, OD, tells us precious little about what it actually is. What we do know is that it's a horror experience that Hideo Kojima is working on alongside the likes of Jordan Peele and other "collaborators", Kojima says. With its star-studded cast including Hunter Schafer and a lot of screaming and weirdness, we're going to have to wait this one out to get a clearer picture of what exactly Kojima's been up to.

The Witcher 4
Platform(s): TBC
Release date: TBC
The Witcher 4 is officially set to kick start what will be a new AAA RPG trilogy for the Witcher series. There's still a lot of mystery surrounding where The Witcher 4 - codenamed The Witcher Polaris - will take us. All we have to go for the time being is a teaser image which intriguingly shows a medallain belonging to the school of the Lynx; which has already led to theories among fans about Ciri's involvement. We also know that The Witcher 4 is being developed on Unreal Engine 5, instead of CD Projekt Red's proprietary REDengine and it won't likely arrive before 2025.

Platforms: PS4, Xbox One, PC
Release date: TBC
Ubisoft is bringing back one of the PS2/Xbox/Gamecube era's most memorable titles with a fresh remake of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. It might sound surprising for a studio that's been around so long, but this marks Ubisoft's first full-fledged remake, distinct from other titles they've simply remastered for newer hardware. That said, The Sands of Time remake is pretty darn faithful to the original, just with modern graphics and gameplay.
Perfect Dark
Platform(s): Xbox Series X/S
Release date: TBC
We've long wondered what Microsoft's newly established first-party The Initiative has been up to for the last few years - turns out the answer was more exciting than any of us could have expected. Resurrecting Rare's cult classic franchise for the next-generation, Perfect Dark could be the next killer exclusive for Microsoft's Xbox family, though we're yet to see anything beyond the intriguing cinematic which debuted in 2020. Here's hoping the studio doesn't remain in the dark for much longer.

Of course, there will be some kind of threat within the base, but what it is remains to be seen.

The Elder Scrolls 6
Platform(s): TBC
Release date: TBC
After years of prevaricating, party pooping, and a preposterous number of Skyrim re-releases, Bethesda came out at E3 2018 to finally confirm that The Elder Scrolls 6 is officially on the way, even releasing a short but exciting teaser trailer to prove it. That trailer in question doesn't reveal a whole lot, but suggests a number of potential settings for the long awaited sequel, from the long forgotten High Rock to the lost island of Yokuda. Sadly, this RPG is likely to stay in production for quite some time, but the more hopeful adventurers wouldn't be completely mad for expecting The Elder Scrolls 6 to release before the end of the decade. Fingers crossed.
