Are we looking for some new third-person games? We have you covered. In this list, we will highlight some of our most anticipated games coming out in the 2025 calendar year. Don\u2019t look at these games in a particularly ranked order. Instead, these are just some games we can\u2019t wait to get our hands on.<\/p>\n
The team at FromSoftware has done their best to expand their skills and to push the Soulslike genre to new heights. However, with Elden Ring Nightreign,<\/em> they\u2019re pushing the theme of the game into an entirely new direction! After all, this isn\u2019t another massive single-player campaign. Instead, it\u2019s all about the power of co-op play and seeing how well you work in a team.<\/p>\n You\u2019ll pick a class of warrior and work alongside your allies to face challenges big and small. With each session you do, you\u2019ll face new foes and bosses. That means that every single adventure will be different. You up for that?<\/p>\n Puzzle gameplay is one of the core elements of the gaming world, and for a simple reason: it\u2019s fun. Seriously, people love solving puzzles and testing their problem-solving skills. Now, for one studio, it\u2019s gone above and beyond the call to try and not just create a great puzzle experience but one that\u2019s unique due to the co-op setting that the puzzles must be solved with.<\/p>\n In Split Fiction,<\/em> you\u2019ll play two writers who become trapped in the worlds of their creative minds, but these worlds have been fused. Now, they must work together and figure out how to get out before their minds are taken of all of their thoughts and memories.<\/p>\n Hyper Light Drifter was a huge hit, and while the developers opted to return back into the universe, Hyper Light Breaker is not connected to the previous game storyline. Instead, it\u2019s set in the same universe but will tell a new storyline for players. Likewise, we\u2019re getting a third-person game this time, with players able to connect with friends online. <\/p>\n This installment will take players to Overgrowth, a land forgotten in the Hyper Light world. Here you\u2019re on a journey to overthrow the Abyss King, but you can expect plenty of enemies to fight and puzzles to solve. Build up your character so that they\u2019re ready for the fight ahead!<\/p>\n The original Gothic title came out in 2001 believe it or not (yep, we\u2019re all old, deal with it). It was successful then and got both sequels and spinoffs made for it.<\/p>\n But now, a new studio has been made in order to not just remake the title, but rebuild it from the ground up and expand on what the original title did.<\/p>\n In the game, a kingdom is under siege by orcs, and a desperate move is made to try and get the ore needed to make powerful weapons. But the prisoners tasked with getting the ore mutiny, and a deal is to be made\u2026or it would\u2026if a certain person didn\u2019t arrive to change everything\u2026<\/p>\n If you\u2019re looking for a deep fantasy experience that\u2019ll give you many layers to the gameplay while also testing your ability to survive, then\u00a0ARK 2<\/em>\u00a0is what you\u2019ll want next year.<\/p>\n Following up on the acclaimed title, the sequel puts you on a brand-new primal planet where nothing is as it should be. People and dinosaurs are all around, working together and fighting for dominance. Your mission is to figure out what happened to you, how you got there, and how you can get out\u2014all the while saving the people of this world before all life is lost.<\/p>\n But don\u2019t worry! Vin Diesel will be there to help.<\/p>\n When you think about various \u201cworldbuilding\u201d titles, you typically don\u2019t have to worry about the world itself outside of where you build things and the resources you mine to keep things going. However, in\u00a0Towers of Aghasba<\/em>, you\u2019ll be tasked with minding both people and the planet to ensure life goes on.<\/p>\n Specifically, you\u2019ll learn to grow villages and support the people while also tending to the numerous ecosystems of the island you call home. As you traverse the island and grow upon it, you\u2019ll learn more about its history and how it affects everything around you.<\/p>\n Build the villages you want and customize everything you see to fit your style and needs.<\/p>\n ARC Raiders is very much a co-op shooter where you must work together in order to survive.<\/p>\n You play as a group of raiders on a planet that has a robot problem. By that, we mean that there are robots constantly dropping from the sky with the intent to wipe out you and your whole squad. You\u2019ll need to load up and stick together in order to survive. Don\u2019t go off on your own, that\u2019ll only get you killed faster.<\/p>\n When you\u2019re not fighting these beings from the sky, you\u2019ll go and explore the world, find new items and artifacts to help you in your fight, and learn more about where you are.<\/p>\n How long you survive in this game is very much up to you.<\/p>\n Are you ready to search for the Core of Creation? We certainly hope so if you\u2019re aiming to play\u00a0Ashfall.<\/em>\u00a0The game takes numerous references from Eastern culture and then throws that inspiration into a wasteland of post-apocalyptic nature. Your job is to wade through the many areas of the world and see what you can find while searching for the mythical Core of Creation.<\/p>\n The good news is that you\u2019ll have plenty of options for how to play the title. Just in terms of shooting, you\u2019ll have several kinds of playstyles to suit your method of play. Go in big, or be stealthy and wipe out foes.<\/p>\n Plus, you can team up with other players you find to make the experience more enjoyable.<\/p>\n From an odd creature title to a potentially genre-defining MMORPG, let\u2019s talk about\u00a0Chrono Odyssey<\/em>. The title is powered by Unreal Engine 5 to deliver cutting-edge graphics that will show off the world of Setera like nothing else out there.<\/p>\n While the world might seem like your typical MMORPG fair, you\u2019ll soon realize how much it\u2019s not. The timeline of this world is clashing with others, causing multiple threats to appear and challenges warriors like yourselves. You\u2019ll need to fight your way through this world and figure out how to stop these contradictions from happening.<\/p>\n What will you make of yourself in this MMORPG?<\/p>\n There are still very few details about\u00a0Convallaria\u00a0<\/em>outside of it being a third-person shooter. However, based on the game\u2019s trailer and the push it\u2019s getting from Sony, it has the potential to be something special.<\/p>\n Based on what we see, you\u2019ll be able to work your way through a deep fantasy world while also wielding impressive sci-fi weaponry. The gameplay is also tailored to those who want to play in groups versus being alone against enemies.<\/p>\n There are also teases to a deep story involving a young woman, as well as \u201ccrashing through realities\u201d to face numerous threats. We\u2019ll know more when Sony wants to talk about it.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s another title that could be revolutionary in its own right, should the quality hold.\u00a0Phantom Blade Zero<\/em>\u00a0impressed many people when it showed off its bleak world and intense gameplay loop. A mix of martial arts and weapon play awaits gamers, and it\u2019s all set in a dark world where the protagonist has only 66 days to live and complete their journey.<\/p>\n Based on certain trailers, the game appears to be a semi-open-world title that will feature intense boss fights and a cinematic art style.<\/p>\n What other secrets the world holds will be up for gamers to discover when they get it on PS5 or PC.<\/p>\n There are numerous third-person shooter titles out there, but with Sniper Elite: Resistance<\/em>, you\u2019re not just shooting endless enemies as you attempt to achieve a goal. Instead, you\u2019re a key member of a resistance during World War II, and your shots are meant to help cripple the German forces, one bullet at a time.<\/p>\n The game\u2019s story focuses on a deadly weapon that the Germans have developed that, if put into use, could guarantee them victory in the war! Your sniper skills will be put to the test as you infiltrate German encampments and seek out the people you need to kill.<\/p>\n Make every shot count, the world literally depends on it!<\/p>\n They say that in space, no one can hear you scream, but what if you\u2019re within a colony ship in space? Wouldn\u2019t that change the dynamic? In Directive 8020<\/em>, the latest episode of a certain horror anthology, you are part of a colony craft that heads to a new planet where humanity might be able to survive.<\/p>\n However, everything goes wrong when the ship crash lands, and you soon find out that an alien threat has infected your crew! With its imitation skills, it can become any crew member, making every decision potentially life-threatening!<\/p>\n Will you be able to survive this deep space threat?<\/p>\n Most zombie apocalypse games take place in the modern day, but God Save Birmingham is a different story. This third-person survival game will have you attempting to stave off a plague that is transforming everyone around you in Birmingham, England, back in the 14th century.<\/p>\n That alone makes things much different from other titles, as you\u2019ll have to use the century\u2019s technology to survive, which won\u2019t be easy. One of the game\u2019s key elements is not just fighting off monsters but growing and gathering food so you can keep your body strong.<\/p>\n Do what must be done to ensure your survival, or else become part of the zombie horde!<\/p>\n Are you ready to use some magic and might to reclaim your people\u2019s homeland? If so, get ready for Eternal Strands,<\/em> as that is the quest your character, Brynn, will go on. The good news for her is that she has plenty of abilities to help take down the foes she faces.<\/p>\n One of the things the team at Yellow Brick Games made sure to enforce in the gameplay is the ability to use the environment to your advantage. You can use trees as projectiles or as shields, depending on the scenario you\u2019re in, among other reactions that you can unleash.<\/p>\n So be smart, use what\u2019s around you, and do what\u2019s right for your people.<\/p>\n The land you once called home is not what it used to be. The great relic that protected the land was destroyed, and through that act, darkness swept over the land and its people, thrusting them both into the void. You are the last hope to bring back what was lost. As its guardian, you must seek out the shattered pieces of the relic and bring them back together so that peace and light can once again endure.<\/p>\n With a unique character crafting system, you\u2019ll use runes to increase your character\u2019s power. Build them the way you want so that your homeland may return to what it once was.<\/p>\n Welcome to the Ming Dynasty! This period of history was known for many things, but in WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers<\/em>, you\u2019ll get an alternative look at how things might have gone down. For example, the land has been infected with a plague, and that plague is causing people to turn into monsters.<\/p>\n That\u2019s where you come in. You\u2019re a \u201cpirate warrior\u201d who has lost her memories and must go through the land of Shu to regain them and figure out who you truly are. The twist is that you also have the disease that is creating the monsters within you. Use it to your advantage to unlock new powers and lay waste to those in front of you.<\/p>\n You are a bean. Not just that, you are a KILLER bean, and after being betrayed by those you worked for, you\u2019ll make it your mission to get payback on them in the most epic way possible! Yes, this is really the story behind this game.<\/p>\n The twist with this third-person shooter, though, is that it has a big roguelike element to it. Specifically, if you play the game and beat its campaign, then start over, the campaign will be entirely different the second time around.<\/p>\n That means that everything you just went through will be fresh the next time and the time after that! That\u2019s near-limitless playthroughs of action and enjoyment!<\/p>\n Have you noticed how many gaming franchises focus on Chornobyl at one point or another? Seriously, there are a lot of them. Anyway, in Chernobylite 2: Exclusion Zone,<\/em> you\u2019ll once again become a \u201cplanewalker\u201d seeking a highly valuable material for your home planet. However, upon entering \u201cthe zone,\u201d you become trapped there, and you\u2019re not sure why.<\/p>\n What you are sure of is that there are plenty of monsters within this place looking to kill you. Do what you need to so that you can come out alive and get the truth while you\u2019re at it.<\/p>\n Your character is defined by the choices you make, so be who you think you need to be to survive!<\/p>\n Third-person open-world games are almost a dime a dozen in today\u2019s gaming age, so you need something to set you apart from the pack. In the case of Star Overdrive<\/em>, that would be you not only going to a strange alien world to learn the truth behind a distress signal but also having an epic hoverboard that you can use to ride all over the place.<\/p>\n Oh, but don\u2019t worry, that\u2019s not all you\u2019re doing in the game. You\u2019ll face plenty of foes on this planet and have to mix and match styles, powers, and weapons to get the job done.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a big world out there, so see where you can go with it!<\/p>\n When a deadly bacteria wipes out most of humanity, those who survived must do whatever they can to endure. In Rooted,<\/em> you\u2019ll become one of those survivors. The world isn\u2019t as simple as \u201cthe infected and the not,\u201d as the entirely world has been filled with the bacteria, and some areas are more concentrated with it than others.<\/p>\n You\u2019ll have to take risks and explore places like abandoned cities to get the resources needed to make it another day. Just know that there are other survivors out there, and they won\u2019t take kindly to you more times than not.<\/p>\n Build, gather, survive, and don\u2019t let this world take you down.<\/p>\n A civil war is consuming your country, but that is just the beginning of everything that is going on in Hell is Us<\/em>. You see, there is something\u2026else\u2026going on. There are beings popping up that can withstand your modern weapons, so you must be careful with how you confront them.<\/p>\n The game puts a heavy emphasis on exploration, and that means you\u2019ll have to wander through dark areas to see what lurks within. You\u2019ll have no guide outside of your intuition. So let\u2019s hope that doesn\u2019t get you killed!<\/p>\n What is the truth behind these chimeras? Will you even live long enough to find out?<\/p>\n While we don\u2019t know exactly how to pronounce Ertugrul of Ulukayin,<\/em> we can tell you that this is a game that\u2019s about a man looking for his brother after his home was invaded, and learning that he has a much bigger role to play in saving humanity.<\/p>\n This world is much darker and more corrupt than you would think, and that means you must be careful as you work with your friends to stop it and learn the truth about your brother and beyond.<\/p>\n You can be the hope this world needs, but only if you\u2019re able to survive it long enough to shine a light.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re familiar with the original game in this series, you\u2019ll be prepared for what\u2019s coming in The Sinking City 2. You\u2019ll brave the depths and decrepit nature of Arkham, a city full of monsters and secrets that you need to unravel as best you can.<\/p>\n Oh, but there\u2019s more than just monsters within this place. The people here are just as dangerous as they worship the occult and want nothing more than to let the monsters win. Wield numerous weapons of a magical nature and good old engineering to take them down and not let the city consume you, too.<\/p>\n Thanks to Unreal Engine 5, the game looks better than ever before.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s a franchise that has been hitting the gaming space rather hard recently, and for good reason.\u00a0Dune: Awakening<\/em>\u00a0will take you to the world of Arrakis and have you shape your own story however you desire.<\/p>\n The game can do that because it\u2019s an MMO! You\u2019ll choose the race of being you want to be and then wander the sands in an attempt to find what you need so you can become what you were destined to be! That means you can find characters from the legendary stories and explore locations tied closely to the lore.<\/p>\n How will your journey affect the world? You\u2019ll find out soon!<\/p>\n Death Stranding 2: On The Beach<\/em> takes place 11 months after the events of the first title. Sam Bridges is trying to live a quiet life, but it\u2019s not to be. Instead, he\u2019s pulled back into the foray to try and connect another country to the United Cities of America. As you might guess from a Kojima title, that will be anything but easy. You\u2019ll need to build, travel, avoid threats, and endure the harsh elements to get the job done.<\/p>\n Plus, the story will be anything but straightforward. It is a Kojima game, after all.<\/p>\n They say that every war starts with a single action or mission. In Metal Gear Solid Delta Snake Eater,<\/em> you\u2019ll get to relive the true origins of the Metal Gears and the people who set the world on a never-ending path of war.<\/p>\n The remade title brings you back into the skin of Naked Snake, who is tasked with doing a stealth mission of great importance. However, when that mission goes awry and new superweapons are unveiled, he\u2019ll have to unravel the conspiracy before him, and take out those at the top of it.<\/p>\n But when he meets his old mentor, everything will change.<\/p>\n There are many reasons to be excited about the upcoming arrival of Ninja Gaiden 4.<\/em> After all, the announcement seemingly came out of nowhere, just like the ninjas the series is known for! However, what\u2019s got most fans excited is that the franchise\u2019s classic action-RPG style of gameplay will be in full effect. What does that mean? It means things are about to get very, VERY bloody! Which we\u2019re sure many of you are completely fine with.<\/p>\n Whether you play as Ryu or newcomer Yakumo, you\u2019ll have plenty of weapons and skills at your disposal to take down enemies in bloody fashion. Strike hard, strike true, and ensure your enemies don\u2019t strike back!<\/p>\n Here\u2019s another franchise that you likely know all about regarding its gameplay and style. Monster Hunter Wilds<\/em> is the latest version of Capcom\u2019s beloved monster-killing series, and it\u2019s only getting bigger and better with improved graphics and gameplay mechanics.<\/p>\n Once again, you\u2019ll be part of a monster-hunting guild and set out to complete quests to take on massive beasts to help the people of the world.<\/p>\n Not only can you hunt monsters with various weapons, but you can team up with other players to try and even the odds in your favor. No matter what, you\u2019ll want to upgrade your armor and weapons to handle the bigger monsters that come your way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Are we looking for some new third-person games?
