The games we’re looking forward to playing in 2026

Just like that, it’s the end of 2025. We’ve had a stellar 12 months in gaming: games like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Blue Prince and Wanderstop have flown the flag for indie games, while heavy hitters like Ghost of Yotei and Death Stranding 2: On the Beach have provided gorgeous graphics and some satisfyingly crunchy gameplay.

Now, we’re looking ahead to 2026. While it’s infamously tricky to predict what’s coming out in gaming (big titles have a habit of being unceremoniously pushed back) there’s still enough for us to get excited over.
