The PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted returns with announcements and reveals galore this December 5
You know it's good when they get a 'galore' in there.
We all know Maslow's hierarchy of needs, a pyramid of motivations—ranging from basic stuff like warmth and safety to abstract things like love and self-actualisation—that forms the core of human motivation. But where is Maslow's hierarchy of wants? He never made one; it would only have had one thing on it anyway: more videogames.
And guess what? We know exactly which videogames would top that pyramid. The PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted returns this December 5 at 12pm PST, 3pm EST, 8pm GMT and 9pm CEST, hosted by the inimitable Frankie Ward and narrated by BG3's Amelia Tyler, to present the 25 most-anticipated games coming to PC, as assembled by our shadowy council of games industry experts, superstars, panjandrums, and luminaries.
What's on the list? That would be telling. But I can reveal that the show will feature over 75 games (we got carried away) with all kinds of new trailers, announcements, behind the scenes visits, and more. Expect word from Citizen Sleeper 2, Killing Floor 3, The Thing: Remastered and, most tantalising of all, something special from Strange Scaffold, the folks behind El Paso, Elsewhere; I Am Your Beast; and, uh, Clickolding.
Who's on our council of illumined ones? There are some things it's best not to ask, reader. This isn't one of them, though. Our experts consist of big names like Abubakar Salim (AC: Origins' Bayek and Alyn on House of the Dragon), David Gaider (Dragon Age co-creator), Devora Wilde (Lae'Zel from BG3), and Sid Meier (Sid Meier). Plus countless others who, for mixed reasons of national security and paragraph length, remain anonymous until I write another news post about the PC Gaming Show.
The show is set to be a banger, and if you want to know where you can watch it, you can pretty much just pull up a livestreaming service and go. We'll be broadcasting on all frequencies over at the PC Gamer Twitch channel, the PC Gamer YouTube channel, Twitch Gaming, Steam, and Bilibili.

One of Josh's first memories is of playing Quake 2 on the family computer when he was much too young to be doing that, and he's been irreparably game-brained ever since. His writing has been featured in Vice, Fanbyte, and the Financial Times. He'll play pretty much anything, and has written far too much on everything from visual novels to Assassin's Creed. His most profound loves are for CRPGs, immersive sims, and any game whose ambition outstrips its budget. He thinks you're all far too mean about Deus Ex: Invisible War.
