Release dates for Black Ops 7, FM 26, Hyrule Warriors and more of November's best games

October was jam-packed full of great games, including Ghost of Yotei and Battlefield 6.This trend of new releases will continue in November, from triple-A blockbuster shooters to returning football franchises and a couple of major Nintendo exclusives.

The star of the show is undoubtedly Call of Duty Black Ops 7, which has a November 14 release date. Developer Treyarch promises a "mind-bending" experience headlined by its blockbuster multiplayer mode, not to mention Zombies and a revamped campaign. In the single-player story, David Mason leads an elite team to take down bad guys threatening to plunge the world into chaos - yes, nothing out of the ordinary for this beloved shooter.

Another highlight for November is the much-anticipated release of Football Manager 26 on November 4. Nothing says celebrating Bonfire Night quite like taking control of your favourite football team, signing the world's best players, and competing for the sports' most prestigious of honours.

Fans can go hands-on with FM 26 thanks to the early access beta, which is available to pre-order customers until launch. You can read our thoughts on the game with our full review.

Next is a fan-favourite PC game finally making its way to consoles. Satisfactory is perfect for those who love assembly lines, unchecked capitalism, as well as exploration to scavenge for supplies. It comes to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S on November 4.

Dragon Ball fans will be pleased to hear that Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero is coming to the Switch and Switch 2 on November 14.

After releasing on PC and console last year, this fun experience boasts an absurdly big and varied roster, and seems perfectly suited to the Nintendo handheld/console hybrid.

Speaking of Nintendo Switch 2, there are two big first-party games launching this month, beginning with Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment on November 6, followed by Kirby Air Riders on November 20.
