The Most Anticipated PC Games of 2024

Gameplay of Avowed

There won’t be a full open world in the game. Instead, developers will prepare several large locations divided by loading screens, similar to the world structure in The Outer Worlds.

The gameplay foundation is world exploration and combat. Battles will take place in real-time. Players will have to timely block and parry attacks, as well as skillfully combine melee and ranged weapons. For example, a cold weapon can be placed in the left hand, while a magical spell can be assigned to the right hand.

The exact release date of Avowed is still unknown, but according to developers, the game is expected to release in 2024. It will be a Microsoft exclusive, meaning it will only be available on PC, Xbox Series consoles, and in the Game Pass service.

Gameplay of Dragon’s Dogma 2

The game will feature a huge open world, several times larger than the world from the first part, filled with various locations and cities to explore in search of loot and quests.

In addition to traveling through the open world, in Dragon’s Dogma 2, the player will have to fight monsters. Allies, who can be manually customized, will assist in combat. By combining their own abilities and skills of companions, players can create diverse combat formulas for fighting enemies.

Battles in Dragon’s Dogma 2 will not only be against ordinary monsters but also against gigantic creatures, just like in Monster Hunter or Shadow of the Colossus. To defeat them, players will have to climb on the monsters and hit their weak points. The release of Dragon’s Dogma 2 is scheduled for March 22, 2024.

Gameplay of Star Wars Outlaws

Star Wars Outlaws will feature a full open world within the Outer Rim star system, the galaxy's outskirts populated by criminals. Players will be able to visit several planets, but it's currently unknown which ones. The official trailer only identifies Tatooine, Luke Skywalker's home planet.

The combat system is a mix of stealth and shooter. That is, the player can eliminate enemies in melee combat or stealthily clear locations by sneaking into the enemies' blind spots. To act stealthily, players will have to rely on gadgets, study the environment, and carefully watch the enemies.

In Star Wars Outlaws, players can control various vehicles. For moving around locations, speeder bikes can be used, while space ships are available for galactic flights.

The exact release date of Star Wars Outlaws is unknown, but according to developers, the release is scheduled for 2024. Given that it's a high-budget project, it's likely to be released in the fall or December of 24th.

Gameplay of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

There won’t be an open world in Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, but locations can be freely explored in search of secrets and puzzles.

Players will also have to fight Nazis both in open combat and stealthily. Enemies can be grabbed, thrown aside, or stealthily eliminated if approached from behind. Players will also have access to firearms and a whip.

The release of the game is scheduled for 2024. The exact date is not yet known. The game will be available on PC, Xbox Series consoles, and in the Game Pass subscription service.

Gameplay of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl

As in the original trilogy, the sequel will require players to explore the Zone, search for artifacts, and fight hostile factions, whose numbers will greatly increase. The main innovation will be a survival system: players will need to monitor the character's condition, feed him in time, and let him sleep. The release is planned for 2024.
