The Games You Should Play Over The Holidays | The Game Informer Show

by Eric Van Allen on Nov 26, 2025 at 10:00 AM
It's Thanksgiving week in the US, which means the GI staff is taking some time off, heading to wherever they rest their heads, planning dinners and get-togethers, and getting in some extra game time.

In light of that, we're publishing a special early edition of The Game Informer Show this week with a little twist - rather than a roundtable discussion, we had everyone contribute their own solo take on what they're playing, thinking about, or otherwise getting back into this holiday break! From the 2025 backlog to older games, and even some tabletop options, we've got a boatload of personalized selections from the GI crew. Enjoy!

The Game Informer Show is a weekly podcast covering the video game industry. Join us every Friday for chats about your favorite titles – past and present – alongside Game Informer staff and special guests from around the industry.
