PC players are nowadays seeing a lot of console-exclusive ports make their way to Steam and various launchers. This is great news for anyone who's felt like they've been missing out without owning a console, and it's clear that the lines between console and PC are beginning to blur, especially concerning Microsoft and its desire to port its impressive games' library to both ecosystems. Game Pass has made things even more lucrative and many series once thought console-locked forever are receiving PC versions (even if it takes a year or so to adapt them over).
Those playing games on a PC have a lot to look forward to in 2024 and beyond, with some high-profile ports, awesome-looking Indie releases, and AAA titles that are sure to look stunning on a high-end build. Here's a look at all the titles we can expect to see on the PC by the end of the year, along with games that do not have specific release dates.

May 2024 PC Games
Homeworld, Hellblade, & More
Nowadays, there is no such thing as a "weak" month for gaming, with most periods producing at least a couple of major AAA projects. Even if that area occasionally struggles to produce anything worthy of being described as "great," the indie scene is always around to pick up the slack. May 2024 showcases both sides of the industry, guaranteeing most PC players will be able to find something that suits their tastes. Homeworld 3 should be the month's biggest PC release, as the RTS title is one of the year's most highly-anticipated projects. While that excitement has not died down, the demo garnered a mixed reception, which contributed to Homeworld 3 being delayed from its original February 2024 debut.
Sony will continue its effort to port PlayStation games to PC with the arrival of Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut, one of that ecosystem's most beloved exclusives of the last few years. Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 is also set to launch in May 2024, and Ninja Theory's sequel seems primed to be an impressive evolution from its predecessor. MultiVersus will also make its full debut towards the end of the month.
