On an average day about a dozen new games are released on Steam. And while we think that’s a good thing, it can be understandably hard to keep up with. Potentially exciting gems are sure to be lost in the deluge of new things to play unless you sort through every single game that is released on Steam. So that’s exactly what we’ve done. If nothing catches your fancy this week, we’ve gathered the best PC games you can play right now and a running list of the 2025 games that are launching this year.
Carimara: Beneath The Forlorn Limbs

Steam page
Release: October 6
Developer: Bastinus Rex
Carimara is a mysterious lil’ narrative game that lasts for around the length of a feature film. As the “small, mute sorcerous” Carimara, it’s your task to roam a bizarre, greyscale house and its surrounds, conjuring questions for its inhabitants via cards. These cards are obtained from objects—like an old grave in the yard, for example—and once found, can be presented to the inhabitants. Be careful though, because the responses vary, and sometimes these people will not appreciate some topics being broached. This is a subtle horror-inflected experience which leaves a lingering melancholy in its wake.
