1. Hollow Knight: Silksong
The king of delays is finally here. Silksong drops us into a massive new kingdom with that hauntingly beautiful art style and needle-sharp platforming. Think refined combat, intricate bosses, and vibes that’ll hook you the moment you pick up the controller. If the first Hollow Knight consumed your life, brace yourself—this one’s even bigger.

6. Indiana Jones and The Great Circle: The Order of Giants
Cue the theme song—Indy is back! This one’s a full-on modern action-adventure with cinematic set pieces and treasure-hunting madness. Whips, relics, puzzles, and giant myths to uncover—it’s like the movies, but you’re the one in the fedora.
7. Baby Steps
At first glance, this looks goofy—you literally walk by moving each leg separately. But dig deeper, and Baby Steps is an emotional ride about personal growth. With surreal landscapes and adaptive music that reacts to your stumbles, it’s way more heartfelt than you’d think.
8. Endless Legend 2
Strategy nerds, this is your month. Endless Legend 2 expands on its predecessor with bigger empires, deeper tactics, and more immersive lore. Build your fantasy civilization, wage wars, and lose track of real-world time as you chase that one more turn.
9. Town to City
City-builders rejoice—Town to City takes management sims to the next level. It’s about more than placing roads; it’s about nurturing thriving, living cities with gorgeous visuals and meaningful systems. Basically, SimCity on steroids, but prettier.

14. Goblin Cleanup
Sounds silly, plays addictively. You play as, well… goblins cleaning up after chaotic fantasy battles. The mix of charming aesthetics and oddly satisfying gameplay loops makes it one of those “just one more run” games.
15. Hotel Barcelona
This one’s wild. From the creators Suda51 and Swery65, Hotel Barcelona is a roguelike that’s as bizarre as it is unpredictable. Each run feels fresh, chaotic, and totally weird—in the best way possible.
