2025 is shaping up to be quite a good year for gaming. With some amazing games and sequels coming out next year, players are excited to get their hands on them. Today, we will go over three of the most anticipated action games that will be released in the year 2025. It is important to mention that each of these games has a chance to be delayed and may end up not releasing next year.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a brand-new take on the action turn-based RPG. It incorporates the mechanics of a classic turn-based action game with real-time mechanics similar to Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. It makes players feel much more involved in all the action and the gameplay more satisfying. The game will offer a different combo of attacks that you can perform in real time as well as the ability to reflect and parry.

The developers also mentioned that players will be able to no-hit the entire game if they are skilled enough, which you don’t see in any turn-based action RPG. Clair Obscur features a beautiful post-apocalyptic world, where a team of skilled members, Expedition 33, must face the danger of the world to stop the Paintress. This godlike entity can paint a number on the monolith, and all the people of the world of that age will die.

Ghost of Yōtei

The biggest reveal in the State of the Play event in 2024 was probably the reveal of the Ghost of Yōtei. This action game is a sequel to the beloved Ghost of Tsushima. The setting for Ghost of Yōtei is around the lands of Mountain Yōtei. The game will take place in the year 1603, when this area was outside the rule of Japan. It will feature a brand-new location, which is filled with beautiful flowery meadows as well as snowy tundras.

An important reveal about this action game that came as a surprise to most fans is that it will not continue the story of the Ghost of Tsushima. It will instead take place 300 years ahead of the original game. The game will follow the story of a female ghost called Atsu. From the only trailer that was revealed, it seems that she is hunting down some people in the area. Further details about the game have yet to be released, but it is speculated that it will offer more weapon variety than the original game.

Grand Theft Auto VI

To no one’s surprise, Grand Theft Auto VI is the most highly anticipated action game of 2025. This game is the next entry in the GTA series and is a sequel to Grand Theft Auto V, which was released back in 2013. The details about the game are scarce, as only one trailer has been released about the game. There is also a possibility that the game will offer two protagonists. The return to Vice City and having to explore different biomes and islands in this open-world crime-riddled game has many people excited.
