Looking at the line-up of upcoming PC games for 2024, it's hard not to get hyped up. 2023 was such a brilliant year for computer games, but there are plenty of heavy-hitters set to dazzle us in the months to come.

From remakes of some of the best action games to some truly terrifying-looking upcoming horror games, we're feeling spoilt for choice out here already. If you're looking for something to play while you wait, you should check out our picks for the best Steam games and best games to play on a laptop - not to mention a collection of the absolute titans of the genre in our best PC games list. For now though, let's take a look at all the upcoming PC games you can hope to see over the next 12 months or so, as well as some that we expect to launch even later.

Recent updates

Our list of upcoming PC games was updated on December 20 2023, adding new game announcements and release dates.

Upcoming PC games 2024

Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown

Developer: Ubisoft Montpellier
Release date: January 18, 2024

Side-scrolling action epic Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown is one upcoming PC game we'll be seeing early in the year. We'll be playing as a swashbuckling warrior named Sargon as he sets out on a mission to rescue the kidnapped Prince Ghassan. Expect hack n'slash action and Metroidvania elements when this long-awaited next entry to the Prince of Persia series arrives.

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth

Developer: Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio
Release date: 26 January 2024

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is what publisher Sega is calling "a larger-than-life RPG" thanks to an "unexpected chain of events" that is bringing the series to America for the very first time. Trailers show protagonist Ichiban waking up naked on a beach somewhere in the US, much to the horror of his fellow beachgoers, and it sounds like things are only set to go downhill from there.

Tekken 8

Developer: Arika
Release date: January 26 2024

Featuring new game systems and a totally new engine, Tekken 8 is set to take the fighting game series to soaring new heights. Gameplay we've seen already indicates that this upcoming PC game will look stunning, especially if you're the proud owner of one of the best gaming PCs for the job. The series has come a long way from its arcade beginnings, and we can't wait to get stuck in this January when Tekken 8 finally launches.

Persona 3 Reload

Developer: Atlus
Release date: February 2, 2024

A PS2 classic is getting a modern makeover in Persona 3 Reload. Our return to Tartarus will feel familiar for anyone who's played Persona 5, featuring a similar visual style and third-person controls. Turn-based combat sequences look slicker than ever, as do the personas you can create using cards found throughout Tartarus. All hewn together with Atlus's signature JRPG gameplay, Persona 3 Reload sounds almost perfect if not for the fact that it's totally leaving out the option to play as a female character, added in the game's PSP version, Persona 3 Portable.

Helldivers 2

Developer: Arrowhead Games
Release date: February 8, 2024

Who would have thought that Helldivers 2 could look like this? The sequel to the 2015 twick-stick shooter looks quite the upgrade, with something of an Earth Defense Force vibe but with more wit. The developer said it wanted the sequel to be "bigger, better and more hellish", and definitely seems like it's delivering. You'll be taking up the role of galactic peacekeepers and soldiers in a fight for Super Earth, with the option of teaming up with up to four friends to take down the alien invaders.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League

Developer: Rocksteady Studios
Release date: February 2, 2024

It has somehow been nine long years since the release of Batman: Arkham Knight, and Rocksteady Studios is finally ready to deliver a follow-up. Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League swaps Arkham for Metropolis, a city undersiege from Brainiac and members of the Jusice League who have fallen under his spell. You'll take on the role of Harley Quinn, King Shark, Captain Boomerang, or Deadshot to try and stop them and save the city, working alone or with up to three friends. 

Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

Developer: Don't Nod
Release date: February 13, 2024

This stunning looking action-RPG sees character-swapping in a whole new light. Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is an upcoming title from Don't Nod, and what we've seen of it so far has us hooked. Playing as one of two powerful lead characters, your abilities will swap between ghost powers and banisher powers, fighting back against the phantoms while making use of their abilities to do good at the same time. We're keen to see how character swapping will work in this one, not to mention what the third-person combat will feel like when it launches in February 2024.

Skull and Bones

Developer: Ubisoft
Release date: February 16, 2024

After a somewhat tumultuous development period, Skull and Bones is finally going to launch on February 16. Ubisoft's open world pirate simulator has been a long time coming, and we still can't wait to become captain of our very own crew and sail the seas hunting for treasure, engage in combat with other players, and more. We're yet to play Skull and Bones, but its fairly broad customization options (which will allow you to tinker with the makeup and design of your ship) and mix between PvE/PvP action has certainly caught our attention. 

The Thaumaturge

Developer: Fool's Theory
Release date: February 20, 2024

Described as an "isometric story-rich RPG", the Thaumaturge is one of the most intriguing upcoming PC games out there. Set in early-20th century Warsaw, we'll be playing as one such thaumaturge - a human with a unique seer sense that allows them to interact with esoteric beings called Salutors. The turn-based combat seems to involve card mechanics and an element of chance, making this one intriguing PC game to add to your Steam wishlist.

Nightingale

Developer: Inflexion Games
Release date: February 22, 2024

Former BioWare general manager Aaryn Flynn is taking on the survival genre with Nightingale. This brand new experience is set to land in Early Access in 2023 and will see you and your buddies become Realwalkers – heroes able to travel to new lands as you search for a way back home. You'll be able to build up bases, establish your character, and work with entities around you to survive the most dangerous threats this beautiful fantasy world has to offer. 

Life By You

Developer: Paradox Tectonic
Release date: March 5, 2024 

Paradox Interactive announced Life By You with a very brief teaser which gives us a glimpse of what looks set to be an alternative to The Sims. The initial trailer shows off a virtual house and family, with house building tools and mechanics that certainly appear to share similarities with the popular life sim. What stands out the most, though, is the more open looking world not unlike the structure of The Sims 3, with a car driving through a city, and shots of a beach. Not much more was revealed and we're still waiting on further details, but Life By You has certainly caught the attention of Sims fans

Homeworld 3

Developer: Blackbird Interactive
Release date: March 8 2024

The Homeworld series is one of the most iconic and beloved real-time strategy series of all-time, and developer Blackbird Interactive is finally delivering a sequel – 10 years after Relic delivered Homefront 2. Boasting an expansive campaign, a co-op mode with a roguelike structure, and new combat systems which are built around a 3D ballistics system, Homeworld 3 looks to be every bit the game franchise fans have been waiting for. If what we've played of it already is any indication, Homeworld 3 could be one of the best RTS games of 2024.

Alone in the Dark

Developer: THQ Nordic
Release date: March 20, 2024

The last Alone in the Dark remake didn't hit the mark, but THQ Nordic's stylish return to form has piqued our interest. The gothic deep south horror captured in the trailers evokes a unique sense of dread, paired with the Resident Evil remake-style of survival horror that has become a genre mainstay. It's safe to say we're excited to see how Jodie Comer and David Harbour fare in the lead roles as we return to Derceto in 2024.

Dragon's Dogma 2

Developer: Capcom
Release date: March 22 2024

Dragon's Dogma 2 is landing very soon, and is one of the upcoming PC games we're most hyped about. Powered by the RE Engine, the much-anticipated sequel promises a huge open-world narrative adventure through a parallel fantasy realm, and it looks better than ever. You'll also be able to fully customize your playable character and party members. Director Hideaki Itsuno is once again at the helm, so we know to expect great things come March.

TBC 2024

33 Immortals

Developer: Thunder Lotus
Release date: TBC 2024

This Hades-like isometric roguelike is casting its net wide, as 33 Immortals is a 33-player hack n'slash action-adventure where you rally against almighty power. It'll be a battle of massive proportions compared to what you might be familiar with in Supergiant's smash hit dungeon crawler, as all 33 of you must work together to survive hordes of monsters before going toe-to-toe with the deities themselves.

Ark 2

Developer: Studio Wildcard
Release date: TBC 2024

With Ark 2, Studio Wildcard is building on the success of Ark: Survival Evolved and delivering a massive sequel with heaps of potential. The campaign is set to star noted Ark superfan Vin Diesel, while the game itself will feature a larger play space, more dynamic world events and dinosaur AI, and overhauled progression and survival systems. With Ark 2 being built with Unreal Engine 5, this could be one of the best looking games of 2024 – now we're just waiting on a release date.

Concord

Developer: Firewalk Studios
Release date: TBC 2024

Concord so far doesn't even have a Steam page, but from what little we've seen, it's looking awesome. We only have a teaser trailer to go on for the time being, revealing that it's a new sci-fi shooter with seriously cool vibes. It's a PvP multiplayer FPS but apart from that we don't really know what exactly you'll be doing. It's certainly a good teaser, so stay tuned for more on this one.

Clockwork Revolution

Developer: inXile
Release date: TBC 2024

One of the coolest-looking upcoming PC games is Clockwork Revolution, a steampunk action adventure that resembles BioShock Infinite. There's no official release date just yet, but what we saw at the 2023 Xbox Games Showcase gives us reason to get excited. Right now it's expected to launch sometime in 2024, so it's definitely one to add to your list.

Flintlock: Siege of Dawn

Developer: A44 Games
Release date: TBC 2024

Developer of A44 Games, the developer behind the delightful soulslike Ashen, is an all-new RPG that'll see you venture into a sprawling fantasy world. Where Flintlock: Siege of Dawn has caught our eye so far is in the rhythm to its combat, where you're able to master a range of magical weapons and abilities to fend off powerful creatures. Flintlock: Siege of Dawn looks great, has an interesting approach to exploration, and really killer combat. We're keen to see more as we get closer to the Spring 2023 release window. 

Hollow Knight: Silksong

Hollow Knight: Silksong

Developer: Team Cherry
Release date: TBC 2024

Team Cherry started out by developing DLC for Hollow Knight, one of the best metroidvania games of the modern era, and the scope of the project quickly spiralled out of control. That's why, after numerous delays, we're getting Hollow Knight: Silksong in "early 2024". The long-awaited sequel will feature all new combat mechanics, characters, and worlds to learn and explore, and despite all these years of waiting, we're still excited to jump back in.

Hades 2

Developer: Supergiant Games
Release date: Q2 2024

Developer Supergiant Games is working on its first ever sequel. Following on from the massive success of its roguelike, Hades 2 is set to release in early to mid-2024 judging by the developer's Q2 estimate. The game is set to follow a new playable character in Melinoë, the immortal princess of the Underworld and sibling to Zagreus, and will offer an expanded set of combat and movement abilities. We can't wait to see the return of our favorite gods and goddesses when Supergiant's sequel launches, and it already looks set to rekindle the magic that captured us in the first game.

Little Nightmares 3

Developer: Supermassive Games
Release date: TBC 2024

Bandia Namco's unnerving horror-platformer series is back. We heard from Little Nightmares 3 developer Supermassive Games at Gamescom 2023, where they told us all about what it's like to be spearheaded the third instalment. We know the first chapter takes us through the arid plains of Necripolis, with the horrifying Monster Baby  chasing down our two new protagonists Low and Alone. LN3 will also be the first in the series to go the multiplayer route, with it being an optional game mode if you want to play the game with friend via local couch co-op. 

Neva

Developer: Nomada Studios
Release date: TBC 2024

If you loved Nomada Studios' last game, Gris, then it looks like Neva is going to be entirely your jam. It tells the story of a woman who forges a lifelong bond with a giant wolf in a dying world. It's essentially a game about the relationship between children and parents, with you having to care for the young wolf as it grows against a backdrop of environmental devastation.

Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl

Developer: GSC Game World
Release date: Q1 2024

We should have had Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl in our hands by now, although the Russian invasion of Ukraine has severely impacted development and caused a delay into 2024. However, Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl will certainly be worth the wait, with developer GSC Game World pushing for a broader, and more expansive rendering of the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone in this long-awaited sequel. It looks absolutely stunning, the combat looks weighty and complex, and the new mutants and anomalies are utterly terrifying. 

Star Wars Outlaws

Developer: Massive Entertainment / Ubisoft Montpellier
Release date: TBC 2024

The brand new upcoming Star Wars game from Ubisoft has a name, and Star Wars Outlaws looks set to bring a very different kind of adventure in a galaxy far, far away when it launches in 2024. Stepping out into the Outer Rim as an all-out scoundrel and space bandit, this is a rare time we won't be playing a jedi but an action hero of an entirely different ilk. Expect to blast through hosts of enemies, or stealth right past them, to complete contracts for clients and be the best outlaw in the universe.

Still Wakes the Deep

Developer: The Chinese Room
Release date: TBC 2024

Upcoming first-person horror game Still Wakes the Deep is on the way from Bloodlines 2 developer The Chinese Room. It looks like a uniquely isolating kind of aquatic horror experience, set on an oil rig in the middle of the ocean. With furious waves lashing against the vessel and not another soul in sight (in the trailer, at least), Still Wakes the Deep is looking pretty terrifying already despite having no release date just yet aside from a rough window of 2024.

Towers of Aghasba

Developer: Dreamlit Inc
Release date: TBC 2024

Towers of Aghasba is from a new studio called Dreamlit Inc. It'll see you building your own vast settlement and associated ecosystems on a fantasy island. You can create your civilization however you want, but you'll have to think about maintaining the island's ecosystem at the same time. If you don't, you'll have the literal gods to answer for, which is quite the take on your usual city-builder. 

Ultros

Developer: Hadoque
Release date: TBC 2024 

Another new studio with another new game here. Ultros is being described as a "psychedelic sci-fi sidescroller" and if you take one look at that screenshot above, you'll know why. Hero Ouiji crashes her ship on a cosmic sarcophagus, which just so happens to be carrying an ancient and very evil entity known as Ultros. She then gets caught in an eternal loop that she'll need to break out of. It's thus a loop-based gameplay mechanic that involves discovering secrets and unlocking different abilities as you go.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2

Developer: The Chinese Room
Release date: Fall 2024

It's been two decades since the first game, but Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines 2 is intended to launch in mid-2024. The much-anticipated sequel to a cult classic RPG, Bloodlines 2 has emerged from a rocky developmental period with tons to show for it, including post-alpha gameplay, four playable vampire clans upon release, and plenty of planned DLC to boot. Bloodlines 2 is a "neo-noir thriller" that will see us step into the shoes of customizable main character Phyre, a recently re-awoken Elder vampire who finds themselves in the middle of a very different Boston Camarilla than they remember. As a powerful child of the night grappling with the newness of the modern world, this might just be the vampire RPG experience we've been waiting for since Troika Games' original.

Windblown

Developer: Motion Twin
Release date: TBC 2024

One upcoming PC game we have our eye on is Windblown, a new rogue game in development from the studio that brought us Dead Cells. On its Steam page, Motion Twin describes it as a "lightning-fast action roguelite" where you "become the ultimate killing machine". That's pretty heavy stuff for a game that looks this cute and vibrant. Windblown will also support multiplayer mode on launch, making it one to watch for any hack n'slash fans who like to squad up.

TBC

Assassin's Creed: Codename Red

Developer: Ubisoft Quebec
Release date: TBC

Truth be told, we're not sure when we will be seeing Assassin's Creed: Codename Red. It's the next big RPG title amid the upcoming Assassin's Creed games from Ubisoft, set in feudal Japan. We will also get the choice between two protagonists - one male, one female. Whether that will be on a rotating, mission-specific basis like in AC Syndicate or a fixed choice circa Assassin's Creed Odyssey is yet to be seen. We're hoping to see Red sometime in 2024/25, but with nothing confirmed by the developer yet, you'll have to watch this space.

Fairgames

Fairgame$, the new heist game from Haven

(Image credit: Haven)

Developer: Haven
Release date: TBC

Fairgame$ - as it's officially styled - is a new heist game from Jade Raymond's new studio Haven. It's been born from the gang's desire to create a PvP game with emergent sandbox gameplay, where you'll be breaking into forbidden locations dotted all over the world. Prize open safes and vaults, fill your pockets, and even discover billionaire's hidden plans for secret stuff along the way. 

Haunted Chocolatier

Developer: ConcernedApe
Release date: TBC

Following the unbelievable success of Stardew Valley, developer Eric 'ConcernedApe' Barone has the freedom to work on whatever he wants to. Which is one reason why Haunted Chocolatier has so easily captured our attention. In this upcoming RPG, we'll be taking on the role of a chocolate maker living in a fantasy castle, and we're already in love with it. Spooky settings, a cool visual style, and a smart iteration of the core Stardew systems make this one of the most highly anticipated new PC games out there - even if we have no idea when we could possibly be seeing it.

Lost Records: Bloom and Rage

Lost Records: Bloom and Rage

Developer: Don't Nod
Release date: TBC

The studio that brought us Vampyr and Life is Strange is returning with another meaningful narrative adventure. Set partly in 1995, this nostalgic adventure introduces us to four friends as they make memories and grow closer in the mid 90s before jumping ahead 27 years later. All we know is that a "long buried secret" is the catalyst for their reunion, though it also is why they vowed to never speak again.

Marathon

Marathon game PS5 reveal screenshots

Developer: Bungie
Release date: TBC

Marathon is the revival of Bungie's shooter that was in development before Destiny. It's an extraction shooter, we guess in the vein of Escape from Tarkhov or Rainbow Six Extraction. We're already loving the art style, and with Bungie's shooting at the heart, this one is going to be one to pay attention to. Rumor has it the Marathon remake release date has been pushed to 2025, so it might be some time yet before we get our hands on Bungie's revival.

Marvel's Blade

Marvel's Blade's first trailer

Developer: Arkane Studios
Release date: TBC

A standout moment from The Game Awards 2023 was the announcement that Marvel's Blade is in development. The teaser trailer lets on very little, save that the iconic vampire hero of comic book legend is to make his long-awaited return to video games at some point in the next few years. Being made in tandem with Xbox, it's not expected to load outside the Xbox Series X or PC platforms. A bummer for Sony fans, but good news for us PC players. Let's just hope Arkane has learned its lesson from Redfall this time around and prioritizes the single-player experience.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater

MGS 3

Developer: Konami
Release date: TBC

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is the long-awaited remake of Metal Gear Solid 3. According to the developer, it's going to be a faithful story recreation, but offer players evolved gameplay and visuals. However, looking at some of the screenshots so far, it's a pretty faithful protrayal of some of those original environments too. 

Phantom Blade 0

Phantom Blade 0

Developer: S-Game
Release date: TBC

Phantom Blade 0 is a hack-n-slash RPG that's "the spiritual rebirth of the original Rainblood". It's an Unreal Engine 5 creation, which is allowing it to be much larger and richer than the source material, without losing its core. Set in the Phantom World, you'll blend Chinese Kungfu, with occult arts, and other powers that make Phantom Blade 0 a little different. You play as assassin, Soul, who's been framed for murdering the patriarch of a powerful organization known only as The Order. Technically he's been brought back from the dead, but now only has 66 days left to find out who framed him in the first place.

Sword of the Sea

Developer: Giant Squid
Release date: TBC

You'd be forgiven if you thought  this was Journey 2. It's close, and made by some of the same people. Sword of the Sea is brought to you by Giant Squid, which has delivered Abzu and The Pathless to date, and it sees you playing as a character called Wraith. You'll be zooming around an abandoned realm on a Hoversword (yes you read that right), exploring the Necropolis of the Gods, but also trying to avoid the leviathans that dwell there. It looks exceptionally beautiful and zen, and we can't wait to see more.

Witchbrook

Developer: Chucklefish
Release date: TBC

Will 2024 be the year we finally see Witchbrook, the new life sim from developer Chucklefish? We certainly hope so, as Witchbrook looks to be an utterly charming experience. You'll take on the role of a witch in training, and then be given the freedom to define your route to graduation. Stunning pixel art, deep progression systems, and smart expansions of everything Chucklefish learned working with ConcernedApe on Stardew Valley. Witchbrook looks like a magical adventure you won't want to miss out on.
