The Top Video Game Releases Coming in November 2024

2024 is gearing up to be one of the best years of gaming. The year kicked off to an amazing start with some great titles. While the triple-A space is quiet near the year’s end, there’s still a great balance of double-A and indie titles for an exciting month of November. No matter your preference, there’s a little something for everyone in November’s top video game releases.

Aeon Wars: Maschinen Crisis

• Release Date — November 2024
• Platforms — Windows
• Publisher/Developer — Soliton Interactive
• Genre — Strategy

Originally slated to release in November but now it may have been pushed back. Aeon Wars: Maschinen Crisis is a turn-based tactical war game. It is a multiplayer experience in which players can decide to engage in PvP scenarios as well as PvE cooperative scenarios. Aeon Wars makes it clear that player customization is very important, so if you’re a player who likes to customize every detail to their liking you don’t want to miss it.

Football Manager 2025

• Release Date — November 2024
• Platforms — Microsoft Windows, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, iPad, iOS, Android, macOS, Apple Arcade, Nintendo Switch
• Publisher/Developer — Sports Interactive / Sega
• Genre — Sport Simulation

Football Manager 2025 intends to revolutionize the franchise for the current generation of gamers completely. Players will be able to switch between the male and female leagues within the same save. A brand new engine will be implemented giving the game an entirely new feel. A new league license also provides even more realism to the franchise. Fans rejoice because this entry is destined to change the game.

Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core

• Release Date — November 2024
• Platforms — Microsoft Windows
• Publisher/Developer — Ghost Ship Games / Ghost Ship Publishing
• Genre — Action Roguelike

Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core is a co-op FPS roguelite that will feature completely destructible environments and procedurally generated caves. November is feeling like the month of the co-op experience and Deep Rock Galactic can easily hang with the rest of November’s releases. Build your loadout, gather friends, and enjoy one of the best rogue-lite franchises of the decade.

Cozynauts

• Release Date — November 1, 2024
• Platforms — Microsoft Windows
• Publisher/Developer — NeoNoir Studios
• Genre — Casual, Action Adventure video game

Kicking off the month we have Cozynauts. I feel that gamers might be a bit tired of the cozy casual game era of the industry but those who exclusively play these types of games will have a great time. In this title players will start their space colony, either alone or with their friends. The game will have building, crafting, farming, and many more survival mechanics with a cast of interesting NPCs.

Empire of the Ants

• Release Date — November 7, 2024
• Platforms — Microsoft Windows
• Publisher/Developer — Tower Five/Microids
• Genre — Simulation, Exploration, Real Time Tactics video game

A strange title but an interesting one nonetheless. On November 7, players will embark on a journey in this photorealistic strategy game. A game for those looking for a new RTS title to sink time into but this will definitely not appeal to everyone. According to the game’s steam page, it is reviewing well with publications. Maybe this game will surprise us, give it a try when it arrives this November.

Slitterhead

• Release Date — November 8, 2024
• Platforms — Microsoft Windows, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4
• Publisher/Developer — Bokeh Game Studio
• Genre — Action-adventure

The creator of the critically acclaimed horror franchise, Silent Hill is creating a new IP that will release the first week of November. The game looks similar to other action adventure horror games of recent years, such as Ghostwire Tokyo. Its combat will balance weaponry and magic for a unique combat system that the player will need to master to survive the horrific monsters of Slitterhead. Many people are hoping the team can recapture that magic that made Silent Hill so magical in the 2000s.

Matchmaking Inc

• Release Date — November 11, 2024
• Platforms — Microsoft Windows
• Publisher/Developer — Wave Game, Lightning Games
• Genre — Simulation, Management, RPG video game

Matchmaking Inc. follows a single young man who takes over his family’s matchmaking business. The game is an RPG that combines elements of simulation and management gameplay for players to enjoy. Anime games of this nature tend to do very well in certain circles. If you’re looking for a casual game that isn’t in the survival genre maybe give this one a try.

Avowed

• Release Date — November 12, 2024
• Platforms — Xbox Series X and Series S, Microsoft Windows
• Publisher/Developer — Obsidian Entertainment / Xbox Game Studios
• Genre — Action role-playing game, Shooter game, Adventure game, Fighting game

Avowed was announced for a November 12 release date before Obsidian scrubbed it from their blog posts. It’s safe to assume the game will still be released in November but it’ll probably be moved a tiny bit not to coincide with Assassin’s Creed release date. The esteemed developers of Fallout New Vegas are releasing a first-person fantasy RPG. This title is almost guaranteed to be good, just look at its beautiful art direction.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows

• Release Date — November 12, 2024
• Platforms — Microsoft Windows, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, Mac OS
• Publisher/Developer — Ubisoft Quebec, Ubisoft
• Genre — Role-playing video game, Adventure game, Platform game, Fighting game

Finally, Assassin’sCreed is going to Japan. This November, the fourteenth major installment in the series will be released. Set in 16th-century Japan, this title will follow two protagonists, Naoe and Yasuke. Do not let the protagonist controversy distract you from one of the most exciting entries in the franchise to date. Many fans have been wanting a game like this since the series’ inception. Fingers crossed that Ubisoft Quebec delivers.

Antonblast

• Release Date — November 12, 2024
• Platforms — Microsoft Windows
• Publisher/Developer — Summitsphere
• Genre — 2D Platformer, Action, Destruction video game

Coming off of the heels of the very successful, Pizza Tower is ANTONBLAST. A destructive fast-paced platformer releasing in the second week of November. Early reviews are already praising the game for its feel. It’s unadulterated fun, with the aesthetics of the Game Boy Advance era of gaming. If you’re nostalgic for that period then you will love ANTONBLAST.

Medieval Apocalypse

• Release Date — November 15, 2024
• Platforms — Windows
• Publisher/Developer — Joma Rage
• Genre — Simulator, Adventure

Survival simulators have seemingly dipped in popularity slightly but this November will have the release of Medieval Apocalypse. Surviving in this title will be more than just managing your hunger and thirst. Medieval Apocalypse has the player fighting against an infectious zombie horde as well as other players in an exciting new twist on the genre. Whether you decide to team up or brave the horde alone, Medieval Apocalypse looks like a great time.

RAM: Random Access Mayhem

• Release Date — November 18, 2024
• Platforms — Microsoft Windows
• Publisher/Developer — Xylem Studios
• Genre — Action Roguelike, Bullet Hell, Roguelite video game

RAM is a top-down roguelike shooter with no player character. Players will seize control of many different robot enemies to turn them against each other. This title is a unique spin on the roguelike genre without losing any of the appeal. The game has won multiple awards at the Independent Games Festival which is a testament to its quality.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024

• Release Date — November 19, 2024
• Platforms — Xbox Series X and Series S, Microsoft Windows
• Publisher/Developer — Asobo Studio / Xbox Game Studios

The newest iteration of the Flight simulation franchise, Microsoft Flight Simulator will be released this November. One of the most beautiful simulation games of all time getting a new release is very exciting. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 will also have new mission types such as aerial firefights, search and rescue, and much more. This game won’t be for everyone but will most likely leave its fans completely awestruck.
