[News] Upcoming PC games 2024 and beyond

[Angel of Death]

If you’re anything like us, your time is already stretched trying to play all the great games out right now, and the year isn’t slowing down any time soon. Hope and anticipation, agony and elation – the endless cycle of emotions we go through during the annual PC release schedule. Year in, year out, games are produced in such varying degrees of quality that not a single one of them is destined for certain success. Some of the best PC games of all time are released alongside utter disasters, series are born while others dwindle, and occasionally a game actually lives up to our expectations. Below you’ll find all the upcoming PC games you should keep on your radar, and it’s wildly varied. There are horror games, racing games, story games, and more, plus all of their expected release dates.

Keeping the era of the remake going strong, Pieces Interactive brings the 1992 classic horror Alone in the Dark up to date with this Hollywood adventure through Derceto Manor. Like the original, choose to play as either Edward Carnby or Emily Hartwood, only this time they are played by David Harbour and Jodie Comer, respectively. Between you, you must uncover the dark and thrilling secrets of the manor as you try to find out what happened to Hartwood’s Uncle by completing puzzles, defeating monsters, and surviving with minimal resources.

It’s been over a decade in the making, but Dragon’s Dogma 2 finally lets us step back into the boots of the Arisen. A pesky dragon’s only gone and stolen our heart, and it’s up to us to save the kingdom and slay the beast once and for all.

While we didn’t get to experience any of the plot in our Dragon’s Dogma 2 preview, we did get to grips with the combat, and quite literally so with the larger monsters as you climb on top of them to drive a sword into their skulls. The returning pawns back up the player with a mixture of ranged weapons, spells, and swift melee strikes to fell all kinds of beasts, from minotaurs to harpies. We even chased a griffon, which went as badly as one expects. Everything we’ve seen so far has been promising, and with a much-improved engine running the RPG, it has every potential to be one of the best of 2024.
