It's the last week before GTA VI, and it isn't empty: Football Manager 27 kicks things off on Tuesday, Switch 2 gets Pikmin 4 and Metaphor: ReFantazio on Thursday, and a handful of smaller games round out the schedule. Here are the releases from Monday, November 9 to Sunday, November 15, 2026, day by day.

Tuesday, November 10

  • Football Manager 27 (PC, Mac, PS5, Xbox Series, mobile): Sports Interactive's football management sim returns with a revamped interface and a deeper matchday experience. The mobile version comes through Netflix.
  • DreamWorks Shrek 2 Remastered (PS5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, Switch, PC): the 2004 action-adventure game rebuilt from the ground up, playable by up to four on one screen or online, with a Photo Mode and a Cheat Mode.
  • Warhammer Survivors (PC, PS5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, Switch, mobile): the horde-survival roguelite made with poncle (Vampire Survivors), priced at €7.49. It also joins Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass on day one.
  • Nocturnal 2 (PC): the sequel to the 2023 action platformer, about exploring a forgotten island with a flaming sword.

The same day at midnight, Grand Theft Auto VI pre-loading opens on PS5 for players who pre-ordered it: you'll need at least 212GB of free space.

Wednesday, November 11

  • Hope in the City (PC, Xbox Series): a narrative investigation in which Hope Song, a 17-year-old artist, searches for her missing parents by turning her sketches into clues. It was originally set for the 10th.

Thursday, November 12

  • Pikmin 4 – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Dandori Academy (Switch 2): the Switch 2 version runs at up to 4K in TV mode, lets you give Oatchi voice commands through the console's microphone and adds Dandori Academy, timed treasure-collecting exams with online leaderboards. If you already own the Switch game, an upgrade pack is all you need.
  • Metaphor: ReFantazio (Switch 2): Atlus' 2024 RPG, winner of Best RPG at The Game Awards that year, comes to Nintendo's console.
  • Barbie Rewind (PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, Switch 2, Switch): 16 Barbie games released between 1991 and 2007, plus an unreleased one, gathered by Digital Eclipse in a DreamHouse you decorate.
  • Sonic Pico Park (PS5, Xbox Series, Xbox One, Switch 2, Switch, PC): PICO PARK's co-op puzzles with Sonic, for 2 to 8 players locally or online.
  • Fakin' It XL (PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series): Jackbox's bluffing game returns as a standalone title for up to 8 players, with new modes.
  • Moomin: Midsummer Madness (PC, Switch 2, Switch): a hand-drawn adventure in which the Moomins, swept away by a flood, end up aboard a floating theatre.

The takeaway

On Switch 2, the week comes down to Thursday: Pikmin 4 and Metaphor: ReFantazio, two games already out elsewhere that we cover in our guide to this fall's Switch 2 ports. On PC and consoles, Football Manager 27 and Warhammer Survivors are the most anticipated releases, and the latter comes at no extra cost for Game Pass subscribers.

The following week belongs to GTA VI, due on Thursday, November 19: everything Rockstar has confirmed. Every date for the month is in our November calendar.
