We're counting down the months to the end of this not-so-good year with another monthly round-up. There are 105 games scheduled to release this October, but we cut the fat to give you this list of the 10 Most Anticipated Games, arranged by release dates

See more of what's to come with our list of all upcoming games.

1. Afterlight

For fans of PlayDead's atmospheric puzzle platformers, Silent Road Games has something just for you. Instead of dystopias, we get an opportunity to get lost in their beautiful outer space setting in 2.5D. Play as an astronaut stranded after a mission and explore the perils of Titan's terrain. Kickstarter creations have found their way to success many times before, and with the beauty and immersion that it brings, it could easily be one of the platform’s next hits.

Try out their puzzles on the PC on October 2nd

2. Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One

The N. Sane trilogy's enhanced comeback was a marvel for fans of the Crash Bandicoot series but now Vicarious Vision has set out to bring something new to the table with this fresh sequel. Sure enough, it's about time, and amid all their inter-chronological adventures, we'll finally get to play as Coco Bandicoot in our quest to defeat Dr. Cortex. It’s been more than twenty years since the last main Crash Bandicoot title and hopefully, this one lives up to its legacy.

It's set to release on the PS4 and Xbox One this October 2nd

3. Star Wars: Squadrons on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One

The starfighters have always been one of the more iconic emblems of the Star Wars franchise and with EA's latest venture in the franchise, we're gonna get a first-hand look at the action. In Squadrons, you'll get to pilot X-Wings and TIE fighters in thrilling, outer space dogfights. Its main draw seems to be its multiplayer mode that pits players in team-based 5v5 battles. However, Squadrons is also set to bring in a singleplayer campaign set sometime around the Galactic Civil War.

It's scheduled to release on PC, PS4, and Xbox One on October 2nd

4. Foregone on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Switch

Motion Twin's Dead Cells was a hit for its action-packed Metroidvania action, and now developers Big Blue Bubble has seemingly created a worthy successor to the game's recent legacy. With its detailed pixel artsyle, Foregone's world looks stunning, their bosses terrifying, and the actions and animations, fluid, and satisfying.

Clearly, there's a lot to look forward to here, and we'll get our chance soon as it comes out on PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Switch on October 5

5. RIDE 4 on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One

One of the few good motorcycle games out there has finally come with a new sequel. Milestone has been hitting it big with their games lately, and many are hoping this fourth RIDE installment reaches the same caliber. Introducing a lot of changes to the series, in terms of its career mode plus some brand new modes to boot, it's looking good for the entry so far.

It's set to release on the PC, PS4, and Xbox One on October 8th

6. The Signifier

Sometimes, all it takes is a story and an ominous atmosphere. In The Signifier, we get both as we dive deep into a world of tech-noir mystery that explores the realm of the human mind. We only know so much from a few of their trailers. However, with an array of puzzles surrounding the psychological and philosophical realms of reality, memory, and dreams, it should be a great haven for puzzle fans on the PC looking to immerse in a fascinating story.

It's releasing on October 15

7. Dirt 5 on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One

Codemasters has got to be one of the greatest in racing games, and we're glad to announce that the latest in their outstanding rally racer is coming out soon. In this fifth entry, DIRT moves away from the ultra punishing environment of their previous titles. While their deep simulations are here to stay, we'll still see an entry that will have a more relaxed arcade feel. Their new career modes will feature Nolan North and Troy Baker, and you'll get to share the excitement with friends in the four-player split-screen mode.

A hell of a cross-gen racer, it's coming out on PC, PS4, and Xbox One on October 16

8. Remothered: Broken Porcelain on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Switch

The sequel to Stormind's 2018 "Tormented Fathers" will arrive next month too. A horror survival game, Broken Porcelain makes us return to the haunted Ashman Inn, this time with all the marvels of their new real-time cutscenes and expanded lore. Pull yourself together amidst all the madness, use your weapons, and find the answers to all the ghastly mysteries of the estate.

Upping the ante with a new level of immersion, the adventure continues on the PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch this October 20

9. Watch Dogs: Legion on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One

The series most ambitious title yet may have had to go through a few bumps on the road to release, but we'll finally get to see the beginning of the massive revolution. Legion promises a more emergent and varied experience in this installment, with all of its London citizens available to be recruited into the resistance. Their last presentation showed us just how much experimenting we can do in the open-world playground. Take London back with guns, drones, stealth, and so much more.

It’s gonna be on PC, PS4, and Xbox One this October 29th

10. The Dark Pictures Anthology: Little Hope on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One

The anthology series from Supermassive Games has a new chapter and it's packed with all the harrowing adventures of their last entries. Still, only on their second installment, Little Hope's story gives us a fresh look with a lineup of new faces to hopefully preserve in the course of a long, choice-based narrative. Dive deep into the mysteries of the remote town and help the 4 college students escape the fog of haunted visions from their past.

It's coming out on PC, PS4, and Xbox One on October 30
