It’s the end of 2018, which means it’s time to start looking at 2019, especially when it comes to video games that people can expect to release next year. There are a lot of highly-anticipated titles landing on store shelves in 2019, including Kingdom Hearts III, Anthem, Days Gone, and more. And those are just the titles that have actual release dates. It’s likely that 2019 could also bring gamers a few surprises, with even bigger releases such as Death Stranding and The Last of Us 2.
So what does the new year hold in store for gamers? There are a lot of console exclusives coming out, but PC gamers will have a lot to look forward to, as well. These 2019 titles hold a little something for everyone. These games also cover a variety of genres, including strategy, RPG, action-adventure, multiplayer, first-person shooters and more.
The first few months of 2019 already have games with release dates set in stone, but there are plenty of titles that will probably get release dates for later in the year. Expect fall to bring in some heavy hitters, as it always does. But for now, here is the complete list of games coming out in 2019. (Note that the following release dates are for North America.)

March 2019 Video Game Releases
Although March 2019 isn’t quite as exciting or as full of releases as January and February, the month does round out the last of the winter season with some pretty well-anticipated games. Not only will March bring Devil May Cry 5, but gamers can also look forward to diving into The Division 2, as well as revisit some of their favorite assassins with the remastered editions of Assassin’s Creed 3 and Assassin’s Creed Liberation. It is likely that a few more titles will drop in March, games that have not yet received official release dates.

April - September 2019 Video Game Releases
Although most games set to release in 2019 don’t have official release dates yet, there are still a few set in stone for the months of April through September. That’s good news for gamers who want to make sure they have plenty of games to play in the summer going into the months of fall. It’s likely that more of this list gets rounded out as 2019 progresses because game developers and publishers will start making some announcements about when certain games will actually drop. In the meantime, here are the titles that have definite release dates during that time.
- Mortal Kombat 11 - April 23 Days Gone - April 26 Dauntless - April 26 Rage 2 - May 14 Team Sonic Racing - May 21 Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled - June 21 Shenmue III - August 27 Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries - September 10 Above - Early 2019 Beyond Blue - Early 2019 Carried Away - Early 2019 Children of Morta - Early 2019 This Is Pool - Early 2019 Close to the Sun - Early 2019 Killer Queen Black - Early 2019 Rebel Galaxy Outlaw - Early 2019 Concrete Genie - Early 2019 Fire Emblem Three Houses - Early 2019 Songbird Symphony - Early 2019 Super Meat Boy Forever - Early 2019 Judgement - Late 2019 Phoenix Point - Late 2019 The Settlers - Late 2019

Other Video Game Releases in 2019
The problem with forecasting video game releases is that developers and publishers don’t like to announce them too far out. So there are a lot of games that players can “expect” in 2019, but can’t confirm; some have a general release date in that year, while others are those the industry believes will release sometime next year. It’s hard to say if any of these titles might get pushed back to 2020, but for now, here is the massive list of titles players should, hopefully, get to play before the end of 2019.
