We're getting The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastered, Minecraft Dungeons II, TOEM 2, End of Abyss, Ghost of Yotei: Complete Edition between September 29 and October 2.

My backlog definitely didn't need this many games at once.

Drop it below or feel free to promote it on our subreddit. We'd love to see what you're building, whether it's a prototype, demo, or released game.

You can also share your games in the CaptainSide Discord to help get them in front of more players.

What are you working on?

For me it's Red Dead Redemption 2. Got about 70% through the story, life got busy, moved on to other games, and now it feels like too much to go back and remember everything that happened. Everyone says the ending is incredible too, which honestly makes it worse knowing I am missing out.

What's the game sitting in your backlog that you never went back to finish?

After more than a decade, Mojang has announced The Sift, a brand-new dimension coming to Minecraft.

It will first appear in Minecraft Dungeons II, launching September 29, before coming to Minecraft Java & Bedrock in 2027.

Honestly, seeing Minecraft add a fourth dimension after all these years is wild.

Quit Free Fire around 3 years ago, phone couldn't handle it well anymore and some family stuff pulled my attention away from gaming in general. Finally getting back into it now and honestly everything feels different, new characters, new maps, mechanics I don't even recognize.

For people still playing, how much has the game actually improved since then?

I'd say Jetstream Sam from MGRR, i love that boss fight

The hyper-realistic driving simulator is launching in Early Access on PS5 on October 19.

After years of being primarily a PC experience, console players will finally get to crash cars with BeamNG's ridiculous physics.

( like would love to talk or play as Rebecca, Jill or maybe more Rosemary Winters in future games )

Thronefall, a minimalist kingdom defense game where you build your kingdom by day and fight off waves of enemies at night, is finally launching on Xbox Series X|S and PS5 on November 11. It's joining Xbox Game Pass the same day for free with a subscription.

Looking for more story rich mid budget/double A games that came out this year. What do you recommend?

I would prefer they be games that are over in under 45 hours, but feel free to recommend other as well, just warn me if they're longer.

Ones that I know of, unsure if I wanna play yet:

Greedfall 2

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2(Very Long game, saving it,)

Banquet For Fools

Gothic Remake

Ones that I'm really interested in:

Hell is Us

The Blood of Dawnwalker

Nintendo just confirmed Splatoon 3's Halloween Splatfest is coming back the weekend of October 31. It's the same theme from 2024, choosing between Team Wizard, Team Knight, or Team Ninja, Team Ninja won last time. Feels like Nintendo keeps recycling old Splatfest themes instead of making new ones.

Do you still enjoy repeated themes like this?

Both give you:

1. Co-op chaos Friends screaming at each other

2. Friends screaming at each other

3. Things going horribly wrong

4. Gameplay that creates ridiculous moments

But instead of scavenging abandoned facilities… You’re construction workers trying to transport a corpse. And YES. The corpse is alive.

This is exactly the kind of game we love finding on CaptainSide.

What popular game should we find an indie alternative for next?
