What I want to play in November

 

Life has changed a lot in 2026 and I actually have a fair bit more free time so get ready for plenty more content on this site. The new found free time is meaning that I can get back into gaming as I am learning to enjoy time at home and not needing to go out every weekend like I used to. Now rather than being at football all weekend or going shopping spending for the sake of it my plan is simple... get gaming and creating as I have certainly missed it. 

November is more or less a month of hibernation for me as my money is going on Christmas gifts or the weather just isn't fun to be out in therefore I should be able to have plenty of time to play games and post more consistently on here. I am setting myself the target of rolling the credits on two games before the 19th of November, I am sure you can all guess why, so here are the games I am hoping to play throughout the month of November...

PlayStation

The PlayStation is our go to console so I will definitely be playing on this the most in November. I am hoping to roll credits on the 2 games on here as the backlog of PlayStation games is getting ridiculous now. So these are the PlayStation games I am hoping to play...

Life is Strange : Double Exposure 

I started this in October and I am really hoping I can get time to finish it in early November as I am really enjoying playing through this. I love the Life is Strange franchise and this game is well and truly living up to expectations. This is definitely going to be my number 1 priority to play this month.

Nicktoons & The Dice of Destiny

This game has been sat of my shelf waiting to be played since Christmas last year and I think it is now time to play it. With it being quite short in length I am hoping that once Double Exposure is complete I can move onto this one and get it wrapped up and hopefully I will enjoy it as I have seen mixed reports about this one.

Ice Age Scrat's Nutty Adventure 

Finally for the PlayStation I have had this one installed on the console and with it being under 4 hours long hopefully I can get it wrapped up in just a few sittings. This will just be a little bit of fun to get a game out of the backlog before I start a newer bigger game I hope, so we will see how this one goes. Hopefully I fly through it and enjoy it.

XBOX

I am really trying to mix up what I am playing and I am determined that in November I am going to be playing on the XBOX a whole lot more as I honestly couldn't tell you the last time I picked up an XBOX controller, it has really been that long. So here is what I am hoping to play on the XBOX this month...

Halo 5 

This is the last game I played on the XBOX and I think I am about 30 minutes into this so I want to make a good amount of progress through this. I need to clear up a lot of space on the XBOX for other games to be installed so I am hoping I can get close to completing this and can get it uninstalled sooner rather than later. I am hoping I can get into this as I struggled last time around, let's see if the gaming break has done me any favours.

Nintendo Switch

I couldn't tell you the last time I picked up the Switch 2 or my Switch Lite, it just hasn't been appealing to me lately however, I am planning on getting back into Switch gaming rather than doom scrolling as it is going to be a good way to stop the boredom. So here is what I am hoping to play on the Switch this month...

Mario Kart Worlds

This game has been on the Switch 2 since we bought it and I still haven't played it. I used to love just switching off on an evening playing on Mario Kart so I think I might need to start doing this once more. Rather than scrolling social media I could just pick up the switch do a few races and switch off for the night.

Disney Dreamlight Valley

This is another game I have installed and not played a second of however, that is about to change. I love Disney and I feel like I have really been missing out not playing this so throughout November I will be putting time into this game and hopefully enjoying it as much as people have told me I will. I just hope I don't get hooked on it and neglect other games which is what happened when I started playing Animal Crossing back in the day.

PC

My Steam library is out of control and I have a lot of games I am hoping to pick up in the next sale so I need to start working my way through my backlog on PC at long last (if the PC wants to play ball and actually run the games) so here is the game I want to play this month...

A Short Hike

This is going to be a super quick game to roll the credits on so I think it is time to just sit down and get on with it. This should be easily done in 1 sitting but I guess we will see how it goes. I have high expectations for this though as it was highly recommended and it should be a good way to get back to PC gaming once more. 

So there you have it those are the games I am hoping to play throughout November as I say I am trying to get as many completed as possible by the 19th of November for one specific reason... I am going to be picking up the long awaited GTA 6 and I will be making that a priority to play due to how long I have waited to play it. 

Now let's just see how a month of gaming throughout November goes, check back at the end of the month to see what I actually played. 

See you soon,

Lucy
