March is shaping up to be quite the spectacle, featuring the long-awaited unveiling of 'Crimson Desert' and the franchise's first life simulation foray, 'Pokemon Pokopia'. Add in the likes of Slay the Spire 2 and Monster Hunter Stories 3, and you have a lineup that demands your wallet's full cooperation. Here is a roundup of the titles to keep on your radar this March.

Following the events of 'The War Within', 'World of Warcraft: Midnight' dives into the fray between Light and Void, exploring themes of destruction and creation. Players will face off against new foes as they counter Xal'atath’s schemes to claim the Elven homeland. The expansion introduces a new race, the 'Haraniir', raises the level cap to 90, and adds new zones and dungeons. Notable for long-time fans is the addition of the 'Predation' spec for Demon Hunters and, for the first time in the series, a fully-fledged housing system.

The beloved Stone Age RPG is back, reborn as a mobile idle game. It retains the charm of pet capturing and riding while streamlining the experience for one-handed play. The game distinguishes itself with large-scale combat featuring a legion of 6 trainers and 18 pets. The progression system is surprisingly generous, allowing even base-level units to be promoted to the highest tier, and with all pets obtainable through gameplay, the developers have kept the monetization in check.

In 'Pokemon Pokopia', you play as a Ditto who has transformed into a human, tasked with cultivating a village alongside various Pokemon. Using Ditto's signature mimicry, you can learn skills from wild Pokemon to terraform the land or interact with the environment. It is a heartwarming life-sim experience where planting crops and crafting items eventually draws in a cast of charming Pokemon villagers.

Based on the hit Chinese fantasy novel 'Dragon Raja', 'DX: Awakeners' is a subculture strategy RPG. As a freshman at Cassell College, you will embark on adventures with familiar faces from the source material. The game’s standout feature is its commitment to reducing player burnout; with a one-tap sweep function and character progression tied to team slots rather than individual units, you are free to swap characters and experiment with builds without wasting resources.

From Bungie, the studio behind Destiny, comes 'Marathon', a sci-fi extraction shooter set on the mysterious planet of Tau Ceti IV. You play as a bio-cyborg mercenary known as a 'Runner', fighting for loot and aiming for a clean extraction. With 6 classes of cybernetic bodies and over 400 weapon modification parts, you can tailor your build. Completing contracts for 6 distinct factions will build your reputation before you eventually infiltrate the massive 'Marathon' starship to uncover the grim truths of this world.

The titan of deck-building roguelikes is returning for a sequel. While it keeps the core mechanics that made the original a genre staple, the volume of content—including new stages, keywords, characters, and card effects—has more than doubled. The most exciting addition is the cooperative multiplayer mode, allowing up to 4 players to climb the spire together, sharing potions and voting on which path to take.

Set against the backdrop of 19th-century detective fiction, 'Connected Clue' is a South Korean mystery adventure. You play as rookie detective Diana, scouring bank robbery scenes for evidence. You will be using magnifying glasses and fingerprint kits, but the game also mixes in stealth and action elements to evade police scrutiny. By pinning your clues to the 'Detective’s Wall' to identify contradictions, you will experience the thrill of cracking the case.

This 2D Metroidvania features a stunning storybook aesthetic, set in a world perishing from a shadow plague. As a 'Fire Warrior', you embark on a quest to find the Primal Fire. The heart of the combat is the 'Pyron Action', a parry mechanic that slows down time upon a successful hit, rewarding players with visceral impact and a deep sense of accomplishment. You can customize your playstyle with Core Stones and various parts, leading to multiple endings based on your interactions with NPCs.

The second installment of the legendary Japanese horror series returns in a modernized remake. While the combat involving the Camera Obscura remains faithful to the original, the lighting, shadows, and character textures of Minakami Village have seen a significant overhaul. New lens filters for the camera add depth to both exploration and combat, while the addition of a 'holding hands' mechanic between the sisters deepens the atmospheric immersion.

As the name suggests, the master of horror John Carpenter lends his touch to this 4-player co-op zombie shooter. The game is all about the cathartic joy of mowing down thousands of zombies with overwhelming firepower. You can also drive various vehicles scattered across the map, turning the wasteland into a road-kill playground. It’s a chaotic, high-octane apocalypse where saving your teammates and sharing weapons is the only way to survive.

The Monster Hunter Stories series returns for its third outing. This time, the narrative takes a more mature turn, focusing on environmental decay and the rising tensions between nations. New gameplay features include 'Athletic Ride' for more dynamic field exploration—think cliff climbing and flight—and the 'Synchro Rush', a party-wide joint attack that adds a new layer of tactical depth to combat.

Based on the globally popular manga/anime IP, 'The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin' is an open-world RPG where you play as Prince Tristan. Set in the land of Britannia, the game features a 4-player party system where your attack animations and ultimate moves change based on the weapons equipped. The 'Combination Skills' offer flashy team-ups, while the world is filled with flying mechanics and projectile-based puzzles to keep exploration fresh.

Once a pillar of South Korean FPS gaming, 'Special Force' is getting a fresh coat of paint with Unreal Engine 5. Produced by original developer Park Chul-seung, the game aims to perfectly preserve the fast-paced combat and precise movement that defined the classic. Modern touches like a tiered rank system, tactical equipment, and weapon customization have been seamlessly integrated.

Following its PS5 exclusivity last June, 'Death Stranding 2: On The Beach' is coming to PC. Picking up 11 months after the previous title, Sam and his allies embark on a mission to connect Australia to the Chiral Network. You will face a wider array of threats, from natural disasters to rogue machine soldiers and new BTs. The PC version boasts ultra-wide support, advanced upscaling technology, and DualSense haptic feedback for even deeper immersion.

Pearl Abyss’s long-gestating magnum opus, Crimson Desert, is finally launching. Built on the studio’s own engine, this open-world action RPG follows the story of Cliff, who loses his comrades to the Black Bear mercenaries and sets out to rebuild the Grey Mane band. You can explore the vast Pywel continent on horseback or even ride on the back of a dragon. The game promises intense, real-time combat where you combine weapons and elemental attributes to take down formidable beasts and armies.

Series icons Max and Chloe are back together. This installment focuses on a desperate 3-day struggle to prevent a massive fire from consuming Caledon University. Players will alternate between Max’s time-rewinding abilities and Chloe’s sharp wit to solve the mystery. Choices that cannot be undone by time manipulation are constant, and every decision you make drastically alters the fate of your friends.

Mixing martial arts with survival management, 'Eastern Era' puts you in the shoes of a sect leader fleeing destruction. You must rebuild in the wilderness and raise your disciples, managing their hunger, sleep, and emotional states while defending your base from predators and rivals. The game features a deep system for creating unique martial arts based on the Five Elements, body modification via 'Forbidden Arts', and complex diplomatic maneuvering.

If you need an escape from the city, 'Hoji' is an interior decoration sim focused on cleaning and restoring abandoned houses in your hometown. There are no time limits, penalties, or scores—just the pure satisfaction of curating your own space. You can clear out trash, repair floors, and arrange furniture to your heart’s content. Small interactions, like opening a window to hear the breeze or playing a record, make this a truly tranquil experience.

A first-person extraction shooter set on a desolate, sand-covered planet. The unique hook is the 'Trampler', a massive walking base that you can design and pilot yourself. It acts as your mobile base of operations, storage, and defensive fortress. You will use it to scour ruined cities for rare loot while fending off pirate players and monstrous creatures to secure your escape.
