From the reveal of the next mainline Tomb Raider game to the sequel to Control, the show brought dozens of major announcements. As leaked earlier this week, Larian Studios' next game was confirmed to be a new Divinity title. The developer premiered the first trailer for the game, but did not share a release window.
Capcom confirmed that Leon S. Kennedy will be a playable character in Resident Evil Requiem. There was no update on the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake, but Star Wars Fate of the Old Republic, a new single-player action-RPG, was revealed. Sony and Housemarque released a new story trailer for Saros, while 007 First Light confirmed a major villain. Here are all the reveals and announcements from The Game Awards 2025:
Crystal Dynamics and Amazon Game Studios revealed not one, but two new Tomb Raider games at The Game Awards. Tomb Raider Catalyst is the next mainline TR game from Crystal Dynamics. The game is set in Northern India and follows Lara Croft hunting a mythical and powerful treasure as she races against dangerous foes and other treasure hunters.
Crystal Dynamics has said that Tomb Raider Catalyst will be the largest Tomb Raider adventure yet. The game will feature diverse landscapes like dense jungles, towering mountains, and ancient ruins. Tomb Raider catalyst will launch on PC (via Steam), PS5, and Xbox Series S/X in 2027.
Before Lara Croft's next new adventure, fans will get to experience the legacy of the first Tomb Raider on the game's 30th anniversary with Tomb Raider Legacy of Atlantis. A full remake/ reimagining of the 1996 original, Legacy of Atlantis will cover the familiar and iconic locations like the jungles of Peru, the ancient ruins of Greece, and the deserts of Egypt.
The game will feature intricate platforming and overhauled gameplay and graphics. Tomb Raider Legacy of Atlantis is being developed by Crystal Dynamics and Flying Wild Hog, and it will launch on PC (Steam), PS5, and Xbox Series S/X in 2026.
At The Game Awards 2025, Remedy Entertainment unveiled Control Resonant, a sequel to Control. Billed as the next entry in the Control universe, the game will put players in the shoes of Dylan Faden, the brother of Jesse Faden, the protagonist of the first game. While Control focused on third-person shooting and telekinetic abilities, Control Resonant will feature new abilities and a shapeshifting melee weapon, called the Aberrant.
In the upcoming game, the roles are reversed as Dylan must find his sister, Jesse. According to Remedy, Control Resonant is designed as both a sequel to Control and a new entry point for new players. The game will launch on PS5, Xbox Series S/X, PC (Steam and Epic Games Store), and Mac (Steam and the App Store) in 2026.
Over the past week, The Game Awards and Geoff Keighley have been teasing a major reveal through a mysterious real-life demonic statue. Following intense speculation, a leak confirmed that that statue was related to a new Divinity game. That was confirmed at The Game Awards on Friday. Larian Studios presented a shocking, violent trailer for their next game, Divinity.
Larian said that Divinity was its largest game ever — which sounds insane considering just how massive Baldur's Gate 3 was. The developer has not shared a lot of details yet, and there's no confirmation on the release window. But Divinity should come out on PC and current-gen consoles at some point.
One of the biggest reveals at The Game Awards was Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic, a narrative-driven action RPG where players are put into the shoes of a Force user. The Fate of the Old Republic is being developed by a new studio, Arcanaut, launched by Casey Hudson, the famed director of the original Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and the Mass Effect trilogy.
The game will feature “innovative storytelling, memorable characters, and heart-pounding combat,” according to the Star Wars website. It seems Fate of the Old Republic will give players the choice to stay with the light or join the dark side of the Force. There's no release date for the game yet.
The final reveal of the show was Highguard, a free-to-play PvP hero shooter from the creators of Apex Legends and Titanfall. From the gameplay shown, the game looks like Overwatch on horseback. Highguard is described as a PvP raid shooter where players will ride, fight, and raid as Wardens on a mythical continent.
Highguard will be free-to-play, and it is coming soon, releasing on PC (Steam), PS5, and Xbox on January 26, 2026.
