As a seasoned gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that this upcoming lineup of video games has me thoroughly excited! The anticipation for S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is palpable, and I can’t help but wonder if it will finally live up to the hype. After all, we’ve been waiting a long time for this one, haven’t we?
As October was wrapping up with numerous releases, November steps in, offering an abundance of sequels, blockbusters, and intriguing indie titles. While it’s not as crowded, there are still several notable role-playing games, action titles, and a potential Game of the Year candidate to eagerly anticipate. Take a look at 13 of the most significant games set for release in November 2024.
Planet Coaster 2
It’s quite surprising that it took so long for the sequel of Frontier’s Planet Coaster to arrive, considering its popularity and recognition. Finally, after much anticipation, Planet Coaster 2 is set to debut on November 6th for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. This time around, players will continue their theme park management and construction, but with a splash! The novelty lies in the inclusion of water attractions and rides such as water coasters, slides, and rivers. Customization is still at the heart of the game, allowing you to share your unique creations online. Additionally, you can collaborate with other players to construct a park together or experience the thrill as a first-person visitor exploring the parks.
Empire of the Ants
Microids’ “Empire of the Ants” provides a scaled-down yet engaging real-time strategy experience. The core objective of your colony remains unchanged – survival and strategic conquest. Over the course of the 20-hour campaign, you’ll choose among various unit types (including Snails, Rhino Beetles, and others), deploy special abilities, oversee an economic warfare, and more. Multiplayer modes include a three-player free-for-all and one-versus-one ranked play.
Mario and Luigi: Brothership
The siblings venture into the diverse realm of Concordia, a collection of various isles inhabited by distinct populations, offering a range of climates and obstacles to overcome.
With Shipshape Island, a unique combination of ship and island, at their disposal, Mario and Luigi navigate their way around using various platforming techniques. However, they don’t solely depend on timing-based Bros. Attacks or Battle Plugs to defeat enemies. Instead, they utilize these tools strategically when needed. The upcoming game, Brothership, is set to release on November 7th for Nintendo Switch and appears to be another exceptional title joining the Switch’s esteemed collection.
Slitterhead
Originates from the creative mind of Keiichiro Toyama, known for Silent Hill, and Bokeh Game Studio comes an unusual action-adventure game in Kowlong. Players assume control of Hyoki, a character afflicted with amnesia on a mission to vanquish the Slitterheads – terrifying creatures that imitate humans. Hyoki’s primary combat method is possession, overtaking other beings and utilizing their blood to craft weapons.
It’s also beneficial for navigating the city and exploring various areas (based on the host’s characteristics). In general, it’s a notable change from Toyama’s past creations, and we can’t wait to witness its unveiling on November 8th, available on PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
Farming Simulator 25
Following a satisfactory showing of Farming Simulator 23 on mobile devices (while encountering significant challenges on Nintendo Switch), GIANTS Software is now ready to unveil the complete sequel for Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC on November 12th. Dubbed as Farming Simulator 25, this new edition boasts over 20 fresh crops, more than 400 vehicles, tools from over 150 brands, and a brand-new East Asian setting. Notably, it also showcases significant visual enhancements over its predecessors, such as terrain deformation, dynamic weather, and improved shadows.
Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake
The timeless tale of Erdrick will make its modern console debut when the Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake releases on November 14th, available for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC, and Nintendo Switch. Boasting the HD-2D artistic style, the narrative follows the protagonist, a descendant of Ortega, as they set off to vanquish Baramos, the Archfiend.
Players can gather companions with adjustable appearances and roles, and then set out to traverse the game world, participate in optional missions, delve into caves, and even save monsters to use in the latest Monster Arena. A new profession, the Monster Wrangler, has been introduced, and enhancements such as combat instructions have been added, making the game more accessible for all players.
LEGO Horizon Adventures
Are you interested in reliving Guerrilla Games’ Horizon Zero Dawn in a different fashion? If so, aside from the upcoming remaster, Studio Gobo’s LEGO Horizon Adventures could be just what you need. It retains the appealing and playful vibe that the Lego series is recognized for, softening some of Horizon Zero Dawn’s darker aspects in the process.
In the upcoming game “LEGO Horizon Adventures,” set to release on November 14th for PS5, Nintendo Switch, and PC, you’ll continue your journey as Aloy, this time searching for her mother. You can play either solo or with other characters like Varl. Unlike typical LEGO titles where you gather Studs, this action-adventure game isn’t a beat ’em up. It might just surprise us with its unique take on the popular LEGO series.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024
Following the incredible success of its 2020 flight simulation game, it was inevitable that Microsoft would return to the drawing board with Flight Simulator. Once again developed by Asobo Studio, the next installment, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, is set to release on November 19th for Xbox Series X/S and PC. From what we’ve seen so far, it appears to be an awe-inspiring project that surpasses its predecessor in every way.

Here, you’ll undergo tests and learn a vast array of knowledge before embarking on various mission types, ranging from commercial flights to rescue missions, VIP escorts, and more.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl
If Microsoft needed another major exclusive title to solidify its position, then maybe S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl could be that game. After experiencing numerous setbacks over the years and facing real-world difficulties experienced by GSC Game World, it’s finally set to release on November 20th for Xbox Series X/S and PC. In this game, players will assume the role of Skif and have considerable freedom within the Zone, provided they can endure the challenges.
In the game, players will come across various factions, some friendly and others hostile. They’ll fight against mutants, uncover Artifacts, and find themselves tangling with numerous environment-changing Anomalies. The world is intricately designed by hand, bursting with secrets that the developer claims could take over 100 hours to explore thoroughly. There’s a lot of excitement and anticipation surrounding S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, and in a few short weeks, we’ll find out if it lives up to the hype.
Tetris Forever
Instead of just delving into a single golden year of the Tetris franchise, why not immerse yourself in all its glory? Digital Eclipse’s Tetris Forever compiles more than 15 titles from the puzzle series into a single collection. This ranges from recreating the original Tetris released in 1984 to games exclusive to Japan that are now playable globally for the first time.

The exciting release of “Tetris Forever” is set for November 12th on Xbox One, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch.
Nine Sols
As the anticipation for Hollow Knight: Silksong has shifted from despair to understanding, Red Candle Games’ Nine Sols could prove a captivating alternative for me. Released earlier this year on PC, it will be available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PS4, and Nintendo Switch by November 26th.
Incorporating aspects of platform gaming with hack-and-slash battles, boasting an advanced parry mechanism reminiscent of “Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice”, the game “Nine Sols” revolves around Yi’s journey to vanquish the nine titular entities. Featuring stylish animated graphics, players uncover details about Yi and the world of New Kunlun, while acquiring abilities to explore new regions. If you’re a lover of intricate combat or action gaming in general, it’s definitely worth checking out.
Towers of Aghasba (Early Access)
The game titled “Towers of Aghasba” combines urban construction with open-world exploration and offers a setting for this blend. Starting its early access phase on November 19th, it will be available on both PS5 and PC. Taking cues from movies like “Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind” and “Princess Mononoke“, it invites players to create a fresh city for their community, all while delving into the world to purge an enigmatic contamination.
