LOS ANGELES, Oct. 4 — October 2026 is one of the busiest release months of the year, with nearly 30 titles dated across the month, according to calendars compiled by Video Games Chronicle and Radio Times. The headline acts include Gears of War: E-Day and Star Wars: Galactic Racer on Oct. 6; the Kingdom Hearts Collection and Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival on Oct. 8; and Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen on Oct. 9.
The second half of the month is just as dense: Planet Zoo 2, Valor Mortis and SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide on Oct. 13; Castlevania: Belmont's Curse and the Switch 2 version of It Takes Two on Oct. 15; Switch 2 versions of Resident Evil 2, 3 and 4 on Oct. 16; Final Fantasy Resonance on Oct. 22; Activision's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 on Oct. 23; and Phantom Blade Zero closing the month on Oct. 29.
By platform, Switch 2 is receiving a wave of third-party ports in its second year, while PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC carry all of the month's AAA launches. VGC updates the calendar continuously, and publishers can still move individual dates or platform plans, so buyers should confirm on store pages before purchasing.
