10 Most Promising Games Of December 2024
Infinity Nikki – December 5
PS5, PC, Android, iOS
Developed by Infold Games, Infinity Nikki is an open-world game that follows a gacha structure similar to Genshin Impact.

Unlike games such as Genshin Impact and Wuthering Waves, Infinity Nikki focuses on platforming and relaxing activities such as fishing, looking after animals and collecting insects.
