Taking to /Gaming, user S0mewh4tD4m4ged asked players “What are your top three upcoming games?” before sharing their list – Death Stranding 2, Gears Of War: E-Day and Grand Theft Auto 6.

The post quickly racked up hundreds of replies, with Monster Hunter Wilds a hugely popular choice. Described as “ the pinnacle of excellence in hunting action gameplay,” Wilds is due for release at some point in 2025.

The sequel to Path Of Exile also features in a number of replies, after being delayed from 2021 while a lot of fans are also looking forward to Stalker 2: Heart Of Chornobyl. Both games are due to release November 20.

After being a surprise Early Access hit, a lot of Reddit fans are also looking forward to Hades 2 getting a full launch at some point next year while Sid Meier’s Civilization 7 is another popular choice. The city-builder was officially unveiled at Gamescom 2024 and will release February 11 2025.

Despite not having a release date, a number of gamers are looking forward to Hollow Knight: Silksong while the recently announced Borderlands 4 is also top of a lot of wish lists. It might be approaching the end of its cycle, with the successor to the Switch rumoured to be releasing at some point in 2025, but Nintendo fans are looking forward to The Legend Of Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom (which drops later this month) and Metroid Prime 4: Beyond.

However the most anticipated game seems to be Grand Theft Auto 6. Officially unveiled late last year, the next instalment in the long-running GTA franchise is currently scheduled for a 2025 release. Despite rumours of a delay, one former developer says it’s too soon for Rockstar to know if it needs to push back the launch.

“Grand Theft Auto 6 will sell for 10+ years and there is no competition to worry about,” he added. “They are not going to release the game until they’re 100 per cent happy with it.”

In other news, we might be a few months away from release but Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 has already split fans with its new omnimovement feature.
