Stalker 2 is finally releasing later this month\u2014knock on wood, but it doesn’t look like another delay is in store for us\u2014and there are loads of other exciting games out in November. I’m personally looking forward to the new Microsoft Flight Sim, where I can finally act out my fantasy of being an aerial firefighter. (Dropping all that water looks so satisfying.)<\/p>\n

See what’s out in November below, as well as some of the big gaming events to look out for. For a more zoomed-out view of what’s coming out on PC this year, check out our lists of 2024’s upcoming PC games<\/a> and 2025’s upcoming PC games<\/a>\u2014next year is already looking stacked.<\/p>\n

Planet Coaster 2<\/strong><\/a> | November 6
<\/strong>Build your own roller coaster park. Planet Coaster 2 “may not be the deepest management sim you can buy,” we said in our positive review<\/a>, “but its powerful creation tools and newly added water attractions make a sufficiently satisfying splash.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Slitterhead<\/strong><\/a> | November 8<\/strong>
A new horror game from Keiichiro Toyama, director of the original Silent Hill. Since we play as “an entity devoid of memory and physical form,” I suspect we may be prompted to wonder whether we are in fact the real monster. (But the slitterheads are called “slitterheads,” so I’m guessing that they are also the real monster.)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
