2025 is shaping up to be a strong year for PC gaming and gaming in general. With rumblings of a possible 2025 release of GTA 6 (console initially, PC later), Doom: The Dark Ages, and Death Stranding 2 among many others, the announced games keep stacking up. Today, however, we will cover five highly anticipated PC releases for January 2025.
We will compile another list of game releases for other platforms at later dates. So sit back, relax, like, subscribe, and share with your friends... Wait... Wrong platform.
This list is in order by release date. So #1 will be released first and #5 will be released last. We are not ranking anything today.
Starting off our list at #1 is FREEDOM WARS Remastered.
Originally releasing on the PSVita in 2014, FREEDOM WARS Remastered is a third-person multiplayer game with support for up to 8 people. The game's premise involves being sentenced to a million-year prison term simply for being born. Earth's resources have been depleted, and to earn your freedom, you must survive deadly missions to reduce your prison time and earn any hope of freedom. Die in prison or live on the battlefield. The choice is yours. Scheduled for release on January 10, 2025.
At #2 on the list is Dynasty Warriors: Origins.
Set for release on January 17, 2025, Dynasty Warriors: Origins is laying claim to the title of "The most exhilarating action in the series' history," which may be a hot take to some players of previous Dynasty Warriors games. The story of The Three Kingdoms is set in the vast mainland of China where the convictions of different heroes intersect. You can experience this through the eyes of 'a nameless hero.'
Taking our #3 spot is arguably the most anticipated release for January. Final Fantasy XII Rebirth.
On the night of The Game Awards 2024, PC players around the world jumped from their seats with excitement from the news that the Square Enix PS5 exclusive was coming to PC. The PC version will include improvements to textures and other aspects of the game and is also opening the door for mods. Final Fantasy XII Rebirth will be releasing on January 23, 2025, just shy of the one-year anniversary of the original release.
Coming in at #4 is Marvel's Spiderman 2.
I'll be honest; I'm not the biggest Spider-Man fan. I enjoy some of the movies (Tobey McGuire FTW), and I dabbled in a few games as a child. I can, however, appreciate them. The movies have been a smash hit, and so have the games. If you are a Spider-Man fan, the recent Spider-Man games have been very positively received. In the newest installment, Peter Parker & Miles Morales team up to take on the ultimate test of strength inside and outside the mask. They must fight to save the city, their loved ones, and themselves from Venom and another new symbiote threat. Release Date January 30, 2025.
Aaaaaand finally at #5, Sniper Elite: Resistance.
Offering unparalleled sniping mechanics, stealth, and tactical third-person combat, Sniper Elite: Resistance turns its attention to a hidden war being fought far from the front lines in occupied France. The Sniper Elite series has been around for a long time, and the latest installment may very well prove to be one of its best. The grittiness of the combat and the sniping mechanics make this new chapter a must-play. Sniper Elite: Resistance also releases on January 30, 2025.
