We are finally in 2025, a year that promises a lot in the field of video games and could become one of the best in history. All due to a combination of titles that look very striking and of course the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2.
This time we’re just going to focus on software, so we’ll talk about the games of 2025 that look pretty good and definitely shouldn’t fly under anyone’s radar. Since we believe that only an unexpected misfortune would make these titles not fulfill what they promise.
GTA VI could be the king of video games of 2025
Let’s face it, there can be no list of promising games of 2025 without inevitably including the next entry in this Rockstar crime saga. Although it only has one trailer, it is already generating a lot of expectation among the community and could be one of the best next year.

In the past Rockstar Games has not disappointed and after such a drought of its games since 2018, the height that the hype reached is understandable. All the rumors indicate that it will be a real watershed and frankly we doubt that it will disappoint in any way. Hopefully our hope and that of millions of players is not in vain.
Judas
Even 17 years after its release, Bioshock is one of the most influential, remembered and enjoyable video games in the industry. Therefore, the thought that its creator will return with a totally new IP in 2025 has us quite excited. Especially after seeing their progress.
The Bioshock saga has been out of the spotlight for some time and Judas seems like it could perfectly fill that void. Not to mention that its artistic section and its more retrofuturistic setting make it downright attractive. I hope Ken Levine manages to excite us once again with this great return.
Monster Hunter Wilds could continue the streak of Capcom video games
Capcom has been on a roll for several years and it seems that that will not change in 2025. Only in the second month of the year will it give us Monster Hunter Wilds. This return of the beloved hunting saga promises a lot for several reasons and we believe that we will surely see it in various end-of-year ceremonies.

It will maintain the similar base gameplay but this time we will have a huge open world to go after our prey. In addition, both the world and the creatures will come to life thanks to the RE Engine, which makes it the most attractive Monster Hunter so far. Hopefully they don’t surprise us in a bad way with sneaky microtransactions.
Metroid Prime 4 Beyond
In addition to the Nintendo Switch 2, another of Nintendo’s powerful cards could be Metroid Prime 4 Beyond. Although it was initially announced from the original Switch, different factors caused it to arrive until 2025. However, it seems that all the extra time was not wasted.

During a Nintendo Direct they shared with us the first look at its gameplay which really brings out everything we love about the Prime series. It also seems that the intrepid Samus will finally have a rival quite worthy of her. We can’t wait to be told exactly what day in 2025 we’ll get our hands on it.
Marvel 1943 Rise of Hydra could give us one of the most surprising video games of 2025
Marvel 1943 Rise of Hydra could be one of the most surprising games of 2025. To begin with, it will let us take control of both Captain America and Black Panther in a story in the middle of a world war to stop Hydra. Not to mention that it will take us to various parts of the world recreated taking full advantage of Unreal Engine 5.
Their progress so far looks spectacular and promising, but perhaps the behind-the-scenes footage is what excites us the most. After all, the writer and director Amy Henning, recognized for her work in Uncharted and Soul Reaver, is in charge of this adventure of the first avenger and the protector of Wakanda. That makes us consider it a title with too much potential.
