Five Top Upcoming Adventure Games – December 2025

Trailer compilation of this month's most anticipated new releases

While the retail world goes into commercial overdrive this month, the recent crush of new adventures begins to settle down. But that still leaves a choice selection of promising releases to choose from if you're looking for something to play over the holidays. In December you can use your forensics skills to solve multiple disappearances – or die trying; head into space to confront some long-awaited horrors; clear the good name (cough) of the star of Randal's Monday, who's back in a sequel with a couple of friends in tow; uncover the deafening secrets in an abbey filled with monks who have sworn a vow of silence; and join Scott Whiskers once again as he broadens his horizons with a trip to Central America.

Throw in a cartoon jellyfish, more puzzling goodness from Monument Valley, a haunted town abandoned by time, an amusingly miserable family gathering – plus a whole lot more – and there's plenty of adventuring left to squeeze out of 2025 before the year is out!
