As 2026 winds down, we’re now getting to the stretch of the year where developers are showcasing what games are coming next year. We recently got a glimpse of that in a Nintendo Indie World Showcase, which showed off several games coming to Nintendo Switch 2 in 2027. If you’re a PC player who skipped over the show, you’ll be delighted to know that just about every game shown during it is also coming to Steam.

For this week’s Wishlister, we’re highlighting six games featured on that show that are also coming to Windows PC next year. As always, we encourage you to add anything that catches your eye to your Steam wishlist, and subscribe to our Wishlister newsletter if you want weekly discoveries sent straight to your inbox.

After years of hype, the cozy Witchbrook is finally set to launch on Jan. 28. The multiplayer life sim drops you into a magical seaside town as you attend witch school. It’s shaping up to be a charming alternative to Harry Potter, where you and up to three other friends can live our your witchy days together.

City of None

City of None is a new 2D platformer from the co-creator of Celeste, and you shouldn’t need much more info than that to get excited about it. With a minimalist four-color art style and a moody world that begs to be explored, City of None instantly has our attention even beyond the pedigree of the developer behind it.

My Arms Are Longer Now

My Arms Are Longer Now has a one-of-a-king pitch, in that you control a very long arm that’s out to make everyone’s life miserable. The bite-sized debut from Toot Games looks to combine light puzzle play with a very specific brand of Australian humor to create what could end up being 2027’s funniest game.

Threads of Time

While you wait for Square Enix to remake Chrono Trigger, developer Riyo Games is taking matters into its own hands. Threads of Time is an era-spanning turn-based RPG that is very clearly inspired by the classic RPG. It sports a unique art style too, which riffs on Square Enix’s HD-2D look but in an illustrative manner all its own.

Kitsune: The Journey of Adashino

Steeped in Japanese folklore, Kitsune: The Journey of Adashino is a 3D adventure game about a fox girl and her froggy friend exploring a strange town. Light is the key to survival, as you’ll use it to rekindle shrines and fight off monsters.

Hyperyuki: Snowboarding Syndicate

While it feels like we may never get another SSX game, Hyperyuki: Snowboarding Syndicate may very well be the next best thing. The fast-paced snowboarding game promises stylish fun as you shred rails and trick your way towards victory. If it can get the soundtrack right, it should scratch a very specific itch quite well.
