Battlefield 6
It feels like ages since we’ve had a truly groundbreaking Battlefield experience. After the mixed reception of Battlefield 2042, EA has assembled a super team – Dice, Ripple Effect, Motive, and Criterion – all collaborating on Battlefield 6. As the saying goes, many hands make light work, and early indications suggest this is a skillful course correction for the beloved series.
Expect a complete overhaul of weapons, from recoil patterns to overall responsiveness, ensuring every shot feels impactful. The class system, first seen in 2042, has been refined to offer a better balance between player experimentation and crucial team roles. And let’s not forget the Tactical Destruction feature, promising a more detailed and dynamic environment where you can blow off doors and chip away at structures, rather than just felling entire buildings. If this sounds like your kind of war, prepare to jump in on its launch date!
- Battlefield 6 release date: Friday, October 10, 2025
A gameplay trailer for Battlefield 6 was unveiled, showcasing new features.
Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2
After a staggering 19-year wait, the cult classic bloodsucking RPG finally gets its sequel! This time, the action transports us to Seattle, reimagined with a dark, crimson twist as players delve into a compelling new mystery. Years after its initial announcement, a revealing gameplay trailer confirmed that the wait has indeed been worthwhile.
While the original was celebrated for its engrossing story, it was often criticized for its bugs and lackluster combat. Thankfully, Bloodlines 2 draws inspiration from immersive sims like Dishonored 2 and Deus Ex, promising combat that’s just as captivating as its narrative. Despite a change in developers and a pushed-back release date, we’re more than ready to sink our fangs into this one when it finally arrives.
- Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 release date: Tuesday, October 21, 2025
The Outer Worlds 2
Obsidian’s beloved retro-futuristic RPG is officially getting a sequel! The initial teaser was charmingly honest, admitting that the developers hadn’t finalized character designs, story, or much gameplay ready for public viewing. It merely hinted at exotic alien vistas and futuristic skirmishes. Fortunately, a full gameplay trailer, complete with a release window, debuted at the 2024 TGAs, giving us a clearer glimpse into what’s to come.
- The Outer Worlds 2 release date: Wednesday, October 29, 2025
Call of Duty Black Ops 7
First-person shooter enthusiasts are in for a treat this year, with not one, but two colossal titles entering the fray. Activision is pushing forward with Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, taking us literally into the future to the year 2035. David Mason from Black Ops 2 returns as the protagonist, confronting Raul Menendez and The Guild, now a formidable defense contractor after the events of Black Ops 6.
Venturing into the future naturally brings new gadgets and gameplay mechanics. While the dynamic movement of Black Ops 3 won’t make a full return, players can anticipate an evolved “Omnimovement” system and even exciting wingsuit sections in certain campaign missions. For multiplayer fans, rumors suggest a blend of classic maps alongside specialist abilities. And yes, prepare for an abundance of zombies!

We’re still eagerly awaiting confirmation of its setting and an official launch window. With Starfield now released, it’s widely believed that development focus has fully shifted to Elder Scrolls 6. The big question, however, remains: exactly when will we be able to explore Tamriel’s next chapter?

Players will step into the shoes of Eric Brooks, the formidable half-man, half-vampire, ready to tackle any challenge with his trusty sword. This marks a significant shift for Arkane Lyon, known for first-person titles like Dishonored and Deathloop, as Blade will be a third-person experience.

Haunted Chocolatier
From Eric ‘Concerned Ape’ Barone, the creator of Stardew Valley, comes a new enchanting title! Set in a fantastical town brimming with spooky occurrences, this game retains the charming pixel-art style of Stardew Valley but shifts its focus to combat over farming. You’ll play as the titular chocolatier, fending off slimes to gather ingredients for your elaborate chocolate masterpieces. These creations can then be sold and displayed in your very own chocolate shop. While further details on a release date are still awaited, one thing’s for certain: we can’t wait to get our hands on this delightful, eerie adventure!
