If you're looking for a list of all the new games coming out in 2021, we’ve got you covered. The first few months of 2021 were relatively quiet for new games releases. But that’s all changed now we’re more than halfway through the year. More and more big hitters are being confirmed for release sometime in 2021, including the likes of Halo Infinite, Battlefield 2042 and Far Cry 6 as well as many more.

It’s already proved to be an exciting year for gaming as developers are pushing the power of the PS5 and Xbox Series X. However, it's not only the next-gen console owners who will have all the fun this year. The Nintendo Switch is likely to have another strong year, with some highly-anticipated releases on the way to the handheld console - and to the updated Switch OLED too.
