11 new games we can’t wait to play in May – Polygon
2025-05-01T12:00:00Z
May is packed with new game releases, including Elden Ring Nightreign, Doom: The Dark Ages, and F1 25.
The new game releases in May are some of the experiences we’ve been waiting to have for too long. Not only is Elden Ring Nightreign coming out, but so is Doom: The Dark Ages. Of course, there are plenty of smaller games too, like to a T from the creator of Katamari Damacy and — because it slides in just at the end of April — comedic stealth action game Skin Deep.
We’ve been waiting to sink our teeth into these games, and luckily, they’re not all coming out in the same week. There’s time to slay demons in action RPG Conquest Dark before ripping and tearing in The Dark Ages. And some of the biggest games aren’t arriving until the end of the month, like F1 25. So, whether you’re still trying to crack open Blue Prince or counting down the days to Nightreign, you’ve got a healthy amount of games to jump into in the next few weeks.
Here are our most anticipated game releases for May.
[Ed. note: Some of the prices haven’t been announced yet. We will update this story when they have.]
Skin Deep $ 18 $ 20 10 % off $ 18 Release date: April 30
Platforms: Windows PC
This is a comedic immersive sim game where you take out guards with ridiculous tactics, like throwing pepper at them. Crawling through vents can cause you to sneeze and alert enemies, too. You should visit the Steam page and play the demo. This might be the funniest game of the year. Read More $18 at Steam
Conquest Dark $ 10 $ 10 Release date: April 30
Platforms: Windows PC
This action RPG is sort of like Vampire Survivors mixed with Diablo. You pick a character and start mowing down enemies until you level up and gain new powers. The creator of the game even said they were inspired to make it because they had nothing to do in between Diablo and Path of Exile seasons. Read More $10 at Steam
