The PC game release schedule quiets down a little in April ahead of a big May (which includes both a Dune game and a Doom game, just to make things difficult for people with certain accents), but PC gaming is too verdant these days for any month to feel like a desert.
In fact, one of PC Gamer’s most anticipated games of the year is out this month, a puzzle game called Blue Prince. There’s also a big RPG with a weird premise in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and an RTS that it’s hard not to think of as an unofficial Command & Conquer reboot.
Keep scrolling for an overview of what’s out on PC in April 2025, and for a more zoomed-out view of what’s coming out on PC this year, check out our full list of 2025’s new PC games.
