Grand Theft Auto 6 is undeniably the gaming juggernaut of the holiday season. The fact that we have so many titles releasing in September proves that no one wants to be near that behemoth’s November 19 launch.

While Rockstar’s upcoming blockbuster will get all the attention, there are still a slew of amazing titles to look forward to, as we now know thanks to all the announcements made before, during, and after Summer Game Fest. If you’re somehow not interested in GTA 6, or just want an alternative to the blockbuster, there’s no shortage of legitimately incredible titles to look forward to.

With full understanding that I won’t have time to play all these games this fall, here are 7 games I’m looking forward to in 2026 that aren’t GTA 6.
