Unlike last month when we had over 50 games launched on various platforms, including PC, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch, November is the perfect month for the average gamer. We have a handful of important game releases and about a dozen indie titles that are worth a look.

More importantly, the month of November offers something for everyone, as game releasing next month cover all genres. But let's start with big releases and then add some of the indie titles that we believe are worth your attention.

First off, Rockstar Games is bringing its masterpiece, Red Dead Redemption 2 to PC on November 5. The game is still available for pre-order, but you might want to check our review first.

Then, we have EA's Need for Speed and Kojima Productions' Death Stranding, two different games that will launch on the same day, November 8. While EA's car racing game will release for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, Death Stranding will only be available on the PS4, with the PC version coming in early summer 2020.

Next in line, we have Microsoft's Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition coming on November 14, followed one day later by EA's second major release – Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, which will now be available via Steam in addition to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Another important title, Pokemon Sword, Pokemon Shield drops on November 15, alongside Terminator: Resistance, a first-person shooter developed by Teyon, a Polish studio that has a few other FPS titles under its belt.

The highly-anticipated Shenmue 3 will be launched on PC and PlayStation 4 on November 19, while Sniper Ghost Warrior: Contracts is scheduled for release on November 22. In between these two releases, Google will be launching Stadia, its video games streaming service, on November 19.

One of the Google Stadia launch titles, Football Manager 2020 will be available on the same day, November 19. Also, three days later, Firaxis will bring Civilization 6 to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

A handful of other game releases that we're anxious to try out include Planet Zoo (PC, November 5), Blacksad: Under the Skin (PC, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, November 5), Just Dance 2020 (PS4, Xbox One, Switch, Wii, Stadia, November 5), Mario & Sonic At The Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 (Switch, November 5), Jumanji: The Video Game (PC, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, November 8), Romancing Saga 3 (PC, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, November 11), Paranoia: Happiness is Mandatory (PC, November 14), Tokyo Ghoul: re Call to Exist (PC, PS4, November 15), and Kingdom Under Fire 2 (PC).
