October 2021 looks set to be one of the best months of the year to date in terms of new video game releases. We're into the big holiday buying season, so some of the biggest publishers are releasing their tentpole games.
Check out the video above to get a good look at our seven highlights for October, and also a rundown of the best of the rest, which is actually a pretty good list too.
This is just October, so of course more games are coming. You can check out what's coming over the rest of the year and beyond on our video game release dates page.

In this action RPG, you'll be navigating a highly futuristic, high-tech world terrorized by deranged, alien mutants known as the Others, who […]
In August, we interviewed renowned electronic artist Joel "Deadmau5" Zimmerman about his upcoming project in Core, a creative space where designers can make their own video game experiences with an emphasis on multiplayer interactivity. Called Oberhalsi, the multiplayer world is slated to be a place where listeners can discover new music, interact with one another, and play games. To celebrate Oberhalso – and in collaboration with a number of game designers/fans – over 130 dystopic virtual worlds were created for the music video of the hit single "When The Summer Dies." The top ten selections from around the globe were ultimately chosen to be showcased as backdrops for the song. You can watch the video below.
"I've been experimenting with the confluence of music and tech for a long time, and now with games, I'm able to take it to a whole other level," said Deadmau5. "Typically it takes months and hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of dollars to make a music video. In this case, we were able to pull together a video with stunning 3D worlds in just a couple of months by crowdsourcing the creation to the Core community and deadmau5 fans. The quality of the interactive experiences and the speed with which they were made was unbelievable and demonstrate why more artists are seeking out unique opportunities inside of games to extend new experiences to their audiences."
During our interview with Deadmau5, the musician also talked about his experiences as a solo developer and overall excitement for Oberhalsi:
"Creating a world like Oberhasli has been a vision of mine for years now, but I quickly discovered how daunting it can be to create a multiplayer experience as a solo developer," said Zimmerman. "The amazing thing about Core is that anyone can jump in and create content regardless of experience or resources. We've seen virtual concerts in the past, but after making a splash, they fizzle out; there's no shelf life to them. With Oberhasli, I want to create a permanent mainstay for the artists' metaverse, regularly updating it over time, switching things up, and keeping it cohesive with real-world news and ancillary events."

Oberhalsi debuts on Core next month – October 14, to be exact – with an exclusive, live music performance in the works for folks that log in.
Monster Hunter Rise is about to get spookier before going supersonic. Capcom announced during its Tokyo Game Show Monster Hunter Spotlight that two new collaborations are in the works, first with Ghost 'N Goblins: Resurrection and then Sonic the Hedgehog.
On October 29, hunters will soon have the materials to create layered armor based on Ghost 'N Goblin's hero, Arthur. Besides making your hunter resemble the chivalrous knight, the special event features music from the game, including the classic theme song.
Sometime after that, Sonic the Hedgehog celebrates its 30th anniversary in style by crossing over into Monster Hunter. While it's not the first time the two franchises have collided – a similar collaboration took place in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate – Capcom promises this mash-up will be even grander. However, it didn't have any details to share regarding what the collaboration entails.
These collaborations join previous crossovers such as Street Fighter and Mega Man and won't be the only updates hitting the game. Rise's first major expansion, Sunbreak, was recently announced and launches in 2022.
God of War: Ragnarok is one of Sony's most anticipated releases. The sequel to the 2018's megahit was initially teased about a year ago, and we initially expected Ragnarok to release sometime this year. However, in June, Sony confirmed that the title was getting pushed to 2022. Several factors likely led to this delay, but Kratos' voice actor Christopher Judge recently took to Twitter claiming responsibility.
In reality, it's hard to say that Judge was entirely responsible for Ragnarok's delay. Voice actors don't know every detail in a game's production pipeline, and factors such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic also likely played a part in Sony's rescheduling. Even so, it's interesting to hear Judge's perspective on the matter. We're glad to hear that he's doing better these days. The actor brought a lot to Kratos' personality, and we're happy that he'll be returning for Ragnarok.
For more on God of War: Ragnarok, be sure to read our recent interview with director Eric Williams, where he talks about his vision for Thor and how not having kids affects his overall design for the characters. Regarding Thor, Williams said, "Marvel's interpretation of him is one thing. It's interesting. We wanted to, you know, go a little deeper into the mythology itself," Williams says about Thor having a burlier body type. Being godly is all about presence, and while this version of Thor doesn't look like a sculpted underwear model, his traits of power and intensity are no less effective. Williams also talks about people he knows in real life with a bigger stature and how that translates into Thor: "They have a presence immediately. And it's not always because of muscles. They're just like that is a wall of a human being, you know. So this is a wall of a God, you know, and that's why it was very important."
Microsoft kicked off the first day of the Tokyo Game Show with a presentation that included the news of Scarlet Nexus hitting Xbox Game Pass today and the expansion of Xbox cloud gaming to other regions. While those are big announcements, the publisher also sprinkled looks at upcoming indie titles in the works. If you're someone who is always on the hunt for games off the beaten path, here's a look at some upcoming lesser-known games slated to hit the console in the coming year.
Lapin
Lapin is an adorable platformer about five abandoned rabbits searching for a new home. You'll explore a city park alongside your friends while preserving memories of your journey by filling a scrapbook. With a lovely 2D art direction and pleasant soundtrack, Lapin seems impossible not to gush over. The game comes courtesy of Seoul developer Studio Doodal and launches May 31 on Xbox and Steam.
Unsouled
If you love hardcore 2D action games, Unsouled looks to check the right boxes. As a fallen prince, you slice apart all manner of foes in an adventure developer Megusta Games says is inspired by Onimusha 2. Despite boasting interactive environments, the team says Unsouled firmly commits to delivering stylish action – there are no puzzles or major forms of exploration. When your action looks as satisfying as Unsouled's, why focus on anything else? The game is coming to Xbox and PC sometime later this year though you can try it out via a Steam demo right now.
Eternal Return
This intriguing blend of battle royale and MOBAs throws up to 18 players on a remote island battle it out to be the last one standing. Eternal Return heavily focuses on survival elements by tasking players with tracking opponents, hunting wildlife, and crafting gear and traps. Weapons range from swords, guns, and shurikens as well as vehicles like motorcycles, all of which grant buffs to your character. Eternal Returns looks bonkers and is currently free to play in Steam Early Access. It's making its way to Xbox but no release window was given.
Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising
Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising serves as a prequel to the Suikoden-inspired Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, which launches in 2023. Rising is a 2D side-scroller as opposed to a JRPG, and also features a town-building mechanic. Today's gameplay trailer was narrated in untranslated Japanese, but the gist is that you're a canine-like warrior slashing your way through a storybook world using a very large sword. Those interested in Hundred Heroes will want to keep an eye on Rising, as it features backstory and plot details that resurface in the larger Hundred Heroes. Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising launches sometime in 2022 for Xbox consoles and PC.
Re:Legend
Enjoy Pokemon and farming sims? Re:Legend gives you both. You've been stranded on a desert island and have lost your memories. Thankfully, you still know how to grow food, which is what you'll be doing along with plenty of monster catching. When you're not taming and training wild critters (which can evolve into new forms), you'll cultivate fields, catch fish, cut trees, craft items, and befriend villagers. There's also plenty of combat as you and your monsters work together to battle foes. Re:Legend can be played alone or with friends in multiplayer and is currently playable in Steam Early Access. There's no release window on when Re:Legend comes to Xbox, but 505 Games promises more information during its TGS presentation on October 1.
The Switch is certainly not short of roguelites, but Children of Morta is a popular game in the genre and is pretty decent on Switch. Now it's been confirmed that Dead Mage's title is getting a paid DLC expansion (priced at $4.99USD) on 7th October; you can see a teaser trailer above.
The main addition is a new playable character; some of the PR blurb is below.

Developer SkyDevilPalm goes right for the nostalgia.
Playtonic Friends continues to expand its publishing line-up, and has now confirmed that it's teamed up with developer SkyDevilPalm to bring Victory Heat Rally to PC and Switch in 2022. It was previously successfully funded on Kickstarter, and we featured it in our Nintendo Life Indie Spotlight last year.
This is a retro-style racer that mimics the 'SuperScaler' visuals of '80s arcades and indeed early '90s console games, throwing in some colourful character designs as well. It looks pretty darn stylish, and the following background is given in the press release.
Konami has been bringing back some of their older Castlevania titles recently. While 2019's Castlevania Anniversary Collection focuses mostly on the "Classicvania" style of games (stage-based progression, limited lives), this one features the "Metroidvania" style (open-ended exploration, RPG elements) popularized by Symphony of the Night.
Tokyo Game Show is underway, and in addition to an in-person event there are also various online spotlights taking place. This one from Capcom is all about Monster Hunter, and will apparently have a particular focus on Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak.

It kicks off at 6pm PT / 9am ET / 2pm BST / 3pm CEST, so get yourselves comfy, join in with the community live chat, and enjoy!

As Kotaku reported earlier this spring, Evangelion creator Hideaki Anno is writing and directing a new Kamen Rider feature film. It's called Shin Kamen Rider, and the movie's first teasers give us a good look at how Anno is bringing the character to life.
Grand strategy games are an emerging sub-genre of strategy games that typically encompass long periods of history (or, if sci-fi, time), and involve many intricate layers that players need to contend with. It's not just about winning that war or setting up this mine; you've got to develop infrastructure, set policy, and manage internal dynamics over the long term.
This genre often involves the exploration of the map in order to better understand the resources at your command and the position of your enemies – and your friends. Lines blur when picking apart the edge cases, but by and large count on grand strategy games to make the management of your faction the primary part of the experience. They often over-lap with other genres within strategy gaming, especially 4X games, but a key difference can be in framing. Games like Civilization, for example, typically put the emphasis on managing military resources in particular, with other mechanics in a supporting role.
It can also be just as much a case as to what the accepted definitions are and how a game is marketed. In any case, this is definitely a genre worth exploring in more detail.
Earlier this year, SCS Software revealed that American Truck Simulator's next big DLC would be bringing the Lone Star State to the popular truck game. There's no sign of an American Truck Simulator Texas DLC release date just yet, but we do now have some fresh snapshots giving us a good idea of what's coming - and the devs are doing a Steam key giveaway for fans who can correctly guess the locations revealed.
"Perhaps you remember the work-in-progress prefabs from the upcoming Texas DLC, that we have shown on our blog some time ago," the studio says in a Steam blog post. "Well, it's time to shake things up a bit and show you some screenshots from the actual map." There are 12 preview screenshots offering a pretty good flavour of what ATS' Texas will look like when it does arrive, with a smattering of towns, highways, landmarks, and other spots you might recognise from the state.
If you can, you might be able to win a Texas Steam key when the DLC's launched. SCS asks fans to post their answers in the comments of the blog or on any of the game's social media channels - so, on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram - as "a few lucky winners who will guess the places correctly will receive a Texas Steam key after the release".
After a few lean months over the last year, we're really in it now. So, I hope you've done all your book-reading, TV-watching, and music-listening, because the next four weeks is just wall-to-wall video games.
The Tokyo Game Show 2021 has begun, and from today it'll have a bunch of announceathons from the likes of Square Enix, Capcom, Ubisoft and more stretching over the weekend. Like most other games events this year, TGS is a digital affair, streaming good game stuff to your screens via YouTube and Twitch. There's a heck of a lot on too, so I've had a look through the official programs and gathered some highlights right here.
With Intel's Alder Lake chips breathing down our necks (or are already here, if you're reading this in 2022 or whatever), now seems like an opportune time for a refresher on how to install a CPU. And yes, AMD, you can come too.
Amazon Prime Gaming is continuing its monthly trend of free games and goodies, with one of the largest line-ups to date. For October, Amazon Prime Gaming is giving away lots of free games, including Alien: Isolation and Star Wars: Squadrons.

Fortnite Season 8 is here, marking the return of the cubes. As the cubes take over, this season has seen the debut of other new content. We have seen the addition of The Sideways, which allows you to mow down monsters. Also, an array of new NPCs are making themselves at home, offering challenges for you to complete. Previously, a leak suggested that a sliding mechanic could also be coming to Fortnite. If you are a fan of the battle royale genre, you will know that sliding features heavily in other, similar titles. The Fortnite leaker better known as HYPEX shared further information about the sliding leak on Twitter. Already, we have learnt that the mechanic will allegedly increase your field of view by 15 degrees and make your camera shake. Also, there is supposedly a two second cooldown on the slide which would prevent players from spamming it.

Now that Crusader Kings III has been out for just over a year and with the Royal Court expansion on the way, Paradox are talking some more fun stats from players. Players have been busy of course and as it turns out, rather hungry for flesh human. One of the stats they gave out showed that Cannibalism has been adopted 14,000 times! Oh my.
The most popular lifestyle is Stewardship / Wealth
Pagan religions have been reformed 1 million times
The Roman Empire has been restored 190,000 times
The Great Schism has been healed 220,000 times
From the press release:
"It's wild to me that CK3, the game we poured so much time and passion into, has been out and in the hands of players for a full year," said Alexander Oltner, Lead Game Designer at Paradox Development Studio. "It has been fantastic and humbling to read on Reddit and watch on Twitch the myriad ways that this community has both built dynasties and failed to get them off the ground. We can't wait to see what else the monarchs of CK3 continue to get up to as we work to bring new features and content to the game in the future."
Admittedly I haven't had any more time in CKIII since previously writing some thoughts on it, with too many other games suckering away my time. I'm eagerly awaiting getting back into it though as it is easily one of the best strategy games supported on Linux. Hopefully they won't rush out the Royal Court expansion like they seemed to have done for other games recently.
Bonfire Peaks is a new release from Corey Martin and Draknek that's a puzzle game about moving things around, and then setting your belongings on fire.
"Move onwards, move upwards, and leave nothing behind: in Bonfire Peaks, players must climb to the top of a mysterious island ruin, burning everything they own along the way. Featuring hours of masterfully designed puzzle content, a breathtakingly lovely voxel overworld, and not a single second of filler content."
Burn your belongings to a crisp in easy-to-learn, hard-to-master puzzles
Straight to the point: A cerebral experience in elegant level design with zero filler.
100+ fiendishly difficult levels scattered around an atmospheric overworld. Stuck? Leave one for later!
A feast for the eyes: Sokoban mechanics rendered with vibrant, lush voxel art.
Serene and atmospheric soundtrack to chill your brain while you take on mind-bending puzzles.
Did we mention it was difficult? Well, it's very much a Draknek game!
Haven't personally had the time to play through this one yet but the demo was brilliant. Really easy to get into but definitely gets harder the further you go. Amazing atmosphere too that helps keep the experience nice and chilled. This is also the inaugural publishing project by Draknek & Friends, the publisher and developer of A Monster's Expedition and Cosmic Express.
Available to buy Steam with a demo available. Also itch.io but no Linux version there currently.
It seems Tropico 7 is now a confirmed thing, with Kalypso Media emailing today an announcement about forming a brand new studio dedicated to the next game. Early days yet with work ongoing to prepare for Tropico 7, so don't expect any actual news on the game soon.
Nine Worlds Studios is the name of the new team, named after "the nine worlds of Norse mythology - symbolising the team's ambition to create new worlds". This is the second studio that Kalypso Media has in the tech hub of Munich, Bavaria as they join Realmforge Studios who made Spacebase Startopia and the Dungeons series and Nine Worlds Studios are the fifth development studio within Kalypso Media.
From the press release:
Simon Hellwig, Managing Director of Kalypso Media Group, said: "We are pleased to announce the establishment of our second studio in Munich. This allows us to use already existing infrastructures between our two studios. We are confident in our ability to ramp up the studio to full size by early next year to start production of Tropico 7."
Dr. Anika Thun, Managing Director of Kalypso, added: "Due to the fantastic experience we have had with the city of Munich and the general promotion of video games in Bavaria, it was a logical decision to expand in this region. We are now looking for talented team members who want to work on the latest instalment of the cult classic series. Candidates with experience in Unreal Engine programming, Unreal Engine technical art, game, level, narrative and mission design, as well as UI/UX, VFX artists, animation specialists and 3D generalists, who are ideally also familiar with the Unreal Engine, are encouraged to apply and join us in Munich."
Thomas Schneider, Project Manager said: "As Kalypso's fourth developer studio in Germany, Nine Worlds can draw on a wealth of experience as well as a reliable network, while at the same time becoming part of an environment in which all sides are passionate and actively involved in the development of international brands. I am very pleased to be working with such a strong and renowned company to establish the ambitious Nine Worlds Studios in such a renowned games location as Bavaria."
They have a number of job positions open at Nine Worlds Studios which you can see here.
