This December will see the return of the PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted, PC Gamer’s annual countdown of the top 25 most-anticipated games in development for 2025 and beyond. The show will be broadcast on Thursday, 5 December 2024 at 12pm PST, 3pm EST and 8pm GMT.
The Most Wanted list is once again decided by ‘The Council’ – a wide panel of industry luminaries, content creators and editors who vote on the most exciting PC games currently in development. PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted will count down the top 25 games as voted for by our experts, and bring viewers the latest information and announcements on many of those projects.
The Council includes more than 80 panelists from across the gaming world, including Brian Fargo (InXile Entertainment), Caroline Marchal (INTERIOR/NIGHT), Victoria Tran (Innersloth), Devora Wilde (actor), John Romero (Romero Games), Hannah Flynn (Failbetter Games), Dave Oshry (New Blood Interactive), Robert Yang (independent), CohhCarnage (content creator, Twitch), DieHardDiva (content creator, Twitch), Sid Meier (Firaxis Games), Tanya X. Short (Kitfox Games), Tanya DePass (Monolith Productions) and David Gaider (Summerfall Studios).
“Once again we’re bringing together some of the most creative and respected voices in PC gaming to help us spotlight the upcoming games you should be excited for. We’ve got some incredible exclusives and closer looks at some of 2025’s biggest games and can’t wait to share them with viewers.” says Jake Tucker, Editorial Director, PC Gaming Show.
PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted will be presented by Frankie Ward, a regular host of international esports events across multiple games including Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and League of Legends. Frankie first appeared on the PC Gaming Show in 2018. Frankie will be joined on the night by Amelia Tyler (Narrator, Baldur’s Gate 3), who will be adding her iconic voice to the show.
Frankie Ward, host of the PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted, said “After last year’s inaugural meeting of the Council, I’m excited to see what makes the illustrious top 25 this year. Will looter shooters continue to dominate in 2025? Which game will I gladly take a break from my beloved Balatro to play? And can anything beat the anticipation for GTA 6? You’ll have to tune in to find out…”
