December tends to be a pretty quiet month for game releases. It's a time to look backwards—like at The Game Awards on December 7—and forwards at what's coming in the new year and beyond. The big news in the latter respect, of course, is that December kicked off with the first GTA 6 trailer. We expect to see a lot more upcoming games at The Game Awards, too.
Later this month, we'll be looking back on the year ourselves with our usual GOTY Awards, and looking ahead with previews of what's to come in 2024. But December isn't barren, especially early in the month. Below, find all the PC game releases we're paying the closest attention to this month.
For more about what's ahead for PC gaming, see our current list of 2024's upcoming PC games. Also keep in mind that the next Steam sale starts on December 21—the Winter Sale is always a big one—and other storefronts like GOG and The Epic Games Store will have end-of-year sales, too.
