15 Big Games of November 2025

As the end of the year approaches, November brings a solid lineup of new games, even after the busy release months of September and October. Alongside the highly debated sequel everyone’s talking about, you can look forward to massive open-world adventures, a returning puzzle favorite, a challenging extraction shooter, and a game that’s been in development for over nine years! Here are 15 of the biggest game launches coming in November 2025.

Of Ash and Steel

Developed by a smaller studio using Unreal Engine 4, Of Ash and Steel is an open-world action RPG that takes a classic approach to exploration. Set in the Kingdom of the Seven, the game doesn’t hold your hand – you’ll need to forge your own path without waypoints or quest markers, uncovering secrets and battling enemies along the way. Of Ash and Steel launches November 24th and will be available only on PC.

Lumines Arise

If you enjoyed the psychedelic puzzle game Tetris from the same creators, get ready for Lumines Arise! It’s like Lumines, but even more mind-bending. Launching November 11th on PS5 and PC (with VR compatibility), Lumines Arise features a beautiful story mode with stunning visuals and music. Then, you can jump into the main game: Survival mode. Plus, you can create custom playlists, complete challenges, and compete online as you progress to a new level of gameplay.

Possessor(s)

Following the mixed reception of Hyper Light Breaker, Heart Machine is going back to its 2D origins with Possessor(s), a fast-paced side-scrolling action game featuring combo-based combat. Players take on the role of Luca, who is inhabited by a being named Rhem, and fight terrifying creatures while exploring the ruins of Sanzu City. The game boasts open-ended exploration, a compelling story with other characters to meet, and beautiful visuals, making it a promising title ahead of its November 11th launch on PlayStation 5 and PC.

Where Winds Meet

Everstone Studios’ new open-world action RPG is already generating a lot of excitement in China. The game, set in a fantastical Wuxia world inspired by the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, will launch globally on November 14th for PS5 and PC. Early impressions highlight not only its beautiful visuals and fluid combat, but also the massive scope of the game – players can expect over 150 hours of gameplay, including unique activities designed for cooperative play. We’re eager to explore everything it has to offer.

Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road

After numerous delays and name changes since its initial announcement in 2016, Inazuma Eleven is finally scheduled to release on November 13th for Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4 & 5, PC, and both Nintendo Switch models. Developer Level-5 promises a new story featuring over 5,400 characters, time travel, and stunning anime cutscenes created by MAPPA. It remains to be seen if the game will meet player expectations, but its ambitious scale and visual presentation are certainly eye-catching.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7

The villain Raul Menendez is back, and it’s up to David Mason and his team to prevent widespread panic. While the story of Black Ops 7 isn’t particularly uplifting, the game offers a promising four-player co-op campaign and large-scale 32-player end-game matches. Beyond that, players can expect the usual Call of Duty experience with new maps, game modes, a Wall-Bounce mechanic, and a new Zombies mode. Black Ops 7 releases on November 14th for Xbox and PlayStation consoles, as well as PC.

Escape from Tarkov

Okay, so after years of development and a lot of drama, Escape from Tarkov 1.0 is finally dropping for PC on November 15th! As someone who loves a challenge, I’ve been following this game for a while, and it’s seriously intense. It’s a hardcore extraction shooter, meaning you go in, loot, and try to get out alive – and it’s known for being super realistic, especially when it comes to injuries, treating them, and how the guns actually feel. It’s definitely not a perfect game, let’s be real, but with 11 maps and a new PvE mode, this launch could be huge… or it could just cause even more arguments online. We’ll see!

Syberia Remastered

Relive the adventure that began the Syberia saga with Syberia Remastered. This updated version features enhanced graphics that breathe new life into familiar locations while preserving the original’s unique mood. Enjoy improved puzzles, more responsive controls, and a modern user interface, all designed to make Kate Walker’s incredible journey even more enjoyable. Syberia Remastered arrives on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC on November 6th.

Kirby Air Riders

Even after over 105 minutes of detailed gameplay footage shown in two Direct presentations, if you’re still unsure about Kirby Air Riders before its November 20th release, it might not be for you. The game includes a brand-new Story Mode with the Fountain of Dreams and Nova, the return of the popular Top Ride mode, and all the classic tracks from the original game. This could make Kirby a surprisingly strong contender among Switch games released this year.

Project Motor Racing

While not a direct sequel to Project CARS 4, Project Motor Racing shows strong promise thanks to the team behind the original and support from Giants Software. The game features a robust experience with over 70 cars and 27 accurately designed tracks, complete with changing weather and a full day/night cycle. It also includes a Career Mode, multiplayer options, and various events, all powered by realistic physics and sound. Project Motor Racing arrives on Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC on November 25th.

Terminator 2D: No Fate

Bitmap Bureau is reimagining the classic action movie Terminator 2 as a retro 2D side-scrolling shooter. After a few setbacks, Terminator 2D: No Fate will be available on November 26th for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, and Nintendo Switch. Beyond its stunning visuals and intense action, the game also features branching storylines and multiple endings based on your choices.

Football Manager 26

Okay, so Sports Interactive is finally releasing Football Manager 26 on November 4th! They skipped a year, but it’s coming to Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PC. Of course, we’re expecting all the usual stuff – tons of leagues and players – but what really has me hyped is everything else. They’ve completely revamped how you create a manager, given the whole user interface a massive overhaul, and get this – they’re officially working with FIFA now! This is going to be a big one.

Rennsport

If you enjoyed the developers behind RoboCop: Rogue City, you might be interested in Rennsport, their new racing simulator. It officially launches on November 13th for PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S. Created with Competition Company, Rennsport features various car types, famous tracks like Daytona and Spa-Francorchamps, and online multiplayer. While initial impressions from the early access version weren’t great, the full release might address those issues.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl (PS5)

Over the past year, GSC Game World’s survival game has significantly improved, especially technically. The PS5 version takes it even further with features like DualSense controller support, gyroscope aiming, and compatibility with the PS5 Pro. What might seem like novelties – like hearing the radio through the microphone or playing guitar on the touchpad – actually enhance the experience. The game, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl, launches on PS5 on November 20th, coinciding with its one-year anniversary.

Constance

If you’re looking for a relaxing yet artistic platformer after Silksong, Constance might be perfect. It features a gorgeous, hand-drawn art style and a dreamlike world seen through the eyes of its main character. While the gameplay feels familiar at first, the combat is unique – you can dispel darkness and even turn into paint to scale walls! Constance launches on PC on November 24th, and will be available on consoles in 2026.
