Out now: the big autumn releases

These are out and being played right now. Dates are launch dates; platforms are the ones each game shipped on.

Phantom Blade Zero. S-GAME's wuxia action RPG launched on October 29 for PS5 and PC. It passed 700,000 players at once on Steam on launch day, one of the 15 highest peaks in Steam history.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. Out October 23 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC and Nintendo Switch 2. It is a paid launch, not on Game Pass this year.
Probably Stolen. A cyberpunk pawn-shop sim published by tinyBuild, out October 28 on Steam. You buy, price and sell goods that are not quite legal. It sold over 200,000 copies within hours.
Steal An Egg. The Roblox hit of the year. It launched July 25 and set a record of about 14 million players at once on September 19, during a crossover update.

Coming in November 2026

November has one giant release and one big yearly favorite before it.

Football Manager 27. November 10 on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, and on PC Game Pass from day one. A mobile version for iOS and Android comes through Netflix the same day.
Grand Theft Auto VI. November 19 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S only. Rockstar has not announced a PC version, so there is none at launch.

New on Roam, today

Big launches take years. Roam games are made by people who described them in a sentence, and the feed is full of them. A few that match the moods above:

Waiting for GTA VI? Rush Order is a food-delivery driving sim: take the order, hit the gas, get paid. For a Call of Duty itch, Block Wars is a 5v5 first-person street shooter and CLUTCH is a 1v1 arena duel over five rounds. PIXELVALE is a top-down action RPG where you take the quest and clear the meadow. TALLOW is first-person horror, and Pogo Up is a physics pogo climber with eleven areas to get through.
