Are there any video Games your looking forward to in 2025?

  • 🔧 At about Midnight EST I am going to completely fuck up the site trying to fix something.
The 14th annual.opportunity to bully Todd Howard about being a lazy asshole and not releasing TES VI even as autists like yours truly will have to mod it to fix his shitty code.
 
Likely not popular choices, but here's mine.

Kingmakers
Yes, I know it's a meme game, but I had fun with other meme games, and this one looks like great fun.

Agent 64
Big fan of Perfect Dark and Goldeneye, and having a sequel to those sounds great.

Compound Fracture
The Dino Crisis FPS I wanted. Seems to have all been forgotten about.

Related to that. That bodycam FPS that caused a splash a while ago never came out. Like Compound Fracture, a rival/copy came out before the real one.


Not video games, but Konflikt 47 v2 and Gundam Assemble seem interesting.


And not ones I'll play, but I want to see how much of a trash fire Avowed, Outer Worlds 2, and Assassins Creed Shadows are.
 
HLX (HL3), Doom Dark Ages, and MGS Delta.
 
I'm probably forgetting some, I feel like Wikipedia's list is incomplete:

Mario Kart 10 (and other expected Switch 2 launch games)
Yu-Gi-Oh! Early Days Collection (lackluster but worth it for Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship Tournament 2004 alone)
Death Match Love Comedy!
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond
Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution
Sonic Racing CrossWorlds
Utawarerumono: Shiro e no Michishirube
Ys X: Proud Nordics


Maybe:

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves
The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy
Double Dragon Revive
Angry Video Game Nerd 8-bit
Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater
Lost Soul Aside
Ninja Gaiden 4
Penny Blood
Shadow Labyrinth
Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter
Steins;Gate Re:Boot
Ys vs. Trails in the Sky: Alternative Saga

The LUNAR Remastered Collection comes out in April. Lunar is probably my favorite JRPG series.
Definitely getting that now that I'm aware there's remasters coming out. My copy of Lunar 2 has never quite worked well enough for me to play it. Got it used.

Daybreak 2 and that new Yakuza game with Majima. That's really about it. I am aware I can play Daybreak 2 with an English patch right now.
I am cautiously optimistic for Croc remastered. It checks almost all the boxes for me including using the original source code which is how remasters should be. The only thing I'm iffy about is whether the new textures are shitty AI upscales, they look pretty bad but thankfully they'll have an option to use the original ones.
And now I got Croc remasters on my list. I love Croc.

Lost Soul Aside is coming out? Finally!
 
DOOM: The Dark Ages and that's it.

At this rate I only ever have one single new game to be directly interested in buying every year, which goes to show how miserable the state of gaming is. There are far more new films coming out every year that I intend on watching than new video games I intend on playing at this point.
 
Abiotic Factor is to leave early access this spring/summer. My friend and I have been playing it since the EA launched last year, and it is easily my favorite survival game.
Songs of Syx is also going 1.0 this year which is one of the best city builders around.
Finally, Quasimorph is leaving EA this year too and I will pick it up once it does.
 
Nothing that has been announced yet. I'll possibly play a new 3D mario if they announce one for switch 2 this year. Other than that, it ain't looking too good for 2025.

Definitely that. Hopin they haven't botched the translation.

I got a few:

Hundred Line is from the creators of Dang It Ron Paul

Mars Attracts is a theme park builder based on Mars Attacks, the card game. The devs actually did a video on how they managed to develop a game using the IP.

Burdon of Command is a narrative WW2 game where you take command of a US company in 1941. I played this in the next fest last year and the tutorial was the single dev recording himself with bad audio explaining how to move around units. It was quite charming actually. Plus the writer of this one is Paul Wang, who's best known for writing the Infinity Sea choice books. The dev also did his research, being a historian of sorts and wanted to tell the story of a company in the war.
