GTA 6 and Beyond: The Best Games to Look Out for in 2025

GTA 6 Trailer 1

2025 is shaping up to be an exciting year for gaming, with long-awaited titles like Grand Theft Auto VI, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, and Elden Ring: Neightreign all on the horizon.

However, while AAA games dominate the spotlight, it’s crucial not to overlook the indie games that could provide equally memorable experiences.

GTA 6 is expected to raise the bar for open-world games, but indie titles like Balatro, Arranger: A Role-Puzzling Adventure, and Mars After Midnight have already proven that smaller games can offer exceptional storytelling and gameplay.

These hidden gems, often overshadowed by mainstream releases, can provide some of the most rewarding experiences for players willing to explore beyond the usual suspects.

In 2025, the indie scene promises several exciting titles. Slay the Spire is getting a sequel, while Big Walk from the creators of Untitled Goose Game is a co-op adventure to watch.

Blue Prince, a puzzle game about exploring a house, has already impressed critics, and South of Midnight and Dragonkin: The Banished are sure to captivate fans of AA games with their unique settings and combat mechanics.

While big titles like GTA 6 will likely dominate conversations, the smaller games that don’t receive the same marketing attention can be just as impactful.

As the gaming industry continues to expand, 2025 has the potential to be a year where both AAA and indie games shine.
