Historically, the month of November has been a hotbed for some of the year’s biggest games, and the upcoming batch in 2019 proves that’s still the case. Before things wind down in December, November will see the release of Pokemon Sword and Shield, Respawn Entertainment’s Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, and Hideo Kojima’s first post-Konami/Metal Gear Solid project with Death Stranding, reviews of which are now just a few days away from dropping.
In addition to the big tent-pole games of November, Rockstar will also release the greatly anticipated PC version of Red Dead Redemption 2. Announced in October, Rockstar’s open-world western will launch on the Rockstar Games Client, Epic Games Store, and other platforms before moving to Steam (although that won’t happen until sometime in December). Along with those games, the long-in-development Shenmue 3 will finally ship November 19 on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. There’s also still a suite of indie games and AA games coming to Switch, including the next Mario & Sonic mash-up and a re-release of Layton’s Mystery Journey on the Switch. One we won’t see is Doom Eternal, which had been slated for November 22 before being delayed until 2020.
November is shaping up to be a notable month for games. So for your convenience, we’ve collected a few highlights for November and also included the full list of releases of game release dates set for November.

As GameSpot’s Game of the Year for 2018, Red Dead Redemption 2 from Rockstar Games impressed us with its scope of interactions to be found in the wilderness and within the towns of Saint-Denis and Valentine. It was an immensely satisfying prequel that introduced a suite of new characters and locations, while also giving us a greater appreciation for the returning cast as they got into all sorts of drama in their younger years. The PC release of the game will no doubt be a great time to jump back into the game, just for the fact that the game now runs at an increased frame-rate and higher resolutions.

Following the public departure of Hideo Kojima from Konami, fans have been anxious to learn more about the Metal Gear creator’s next big game. In Death Stranding, players will control Sam ‘Porter’ Bridges–portrayed by Norman Reedus–as he survives in the remains of North America following a catastrophic event that wiped out segments of the population and irreparably altered the landscape. From what we’ve heard about Death Stranding following TGS and Gamescom, it looks to be an unusual approach to open-world games that puts greater focus on making connections with the few characters that remain in the land, and with other players online. We’re excited to see how it all comes together, and it’ll no doubt be in a way that only Hideo Kojima can pull off.
