Control: Resonant is rumored to be the sequel to Remedy Entertainment's 2019 action-adventure hit, Control. The game could be revealed at The Game Awards 2025 based on the studio’s recent activity. On November 27, 2025, Remedy registered a trademark for the title in Europe, which strengthens the speculation that an announcement may be close.

2) Neon Giant’s Project Impact

Neon Giant has already confirmed via X that they will be announcing their next game at the ceremony on December 11, 2025. The studio has been working on a title codenamed Project Impact for a long time, which is described as an open-world immersive FPS built on Unreal Engine 5, and is likely a sequel to The Ascent.

Based on the information we have so far, Neon Giant might finally reveal the official title for Project Impact, along with a gameplay showcase at The Game Awards 2025.

3) Mystery game

Geoff Keighley has installed a massive demon-like statue in the Mojave Desert as a viral tease for a major world premiere tied to The Game Awards 2025. Some reports indicate that the reveal is not connected to Elder Scrolls 6, Diablo, or God of War, but rather a different demonic-themed game that is yet to be identified. For now, the so-called "mysterious statue game" remains completely unknown.

4) Shovel Knight 3D

Multiple hints suggest that a 3D version of Shovel Knight is on the way. According to a recent report by Bloomberg, the title has been under development since early 2020 and is expected to be released in 2026, although the exact date is unknown. The Game Awards 2025 could be the moment Yacht Club finally reveals its upcoming project.

5) Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced

Information about a remake of Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag has been leaked for quite a while, and Ubisoft may share more about it at The Game Awards 2025. Black Flag is one of the most popular titles in the franchise, and a remaster is likely to be a hit.

According to u/thequaliti, there's a localization table in Assassin's Creed: Shadows that reads:

"Assassin’s Creed Black Flag Resynced is a work of historical fiction created by a diverse team."

6) Crash Team Racing sequel

The developers of Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled, Beenox, recently updated their banner on X, and fans were quick to notice something unusual. The banner featured a newer Crash Bandicoot character, which some fans believe to be a hint for an upcoming Crash Team Racing game.

Since then, Beenox has removed the banner, further fueling the rumors. TGA is known for surprise reveals, and a new Crash Team Racing could be one of them.

7) Half-Life 3

There is a slim but exciting chance that Half-Life 3 could be announced, although this is still a wild guess with no confirmation from Valve. There have been numerous hints related to an upcoming Half-Life game, including the datamined "HLX" references in the Source 2 files.

It's always hard to predict Valve’s plans for a game release, but if Half-Life 3 is really in development, The Game Awards 2025 could be the perfect stage to build the hype further.

8) BioShock 4

BioShock 4 has reportedly been in development for years under Cloud Chamber. However, there has been no official announcement regarding a potential release of the title so far. During a quarterly earnings call in August 2025, Take-Two’s CEO confirmed that the project is still alive and will be released eventually.

The Game Awards 2025 could be a good stage for the first-ever reveal of the upcoming BioShock title.
