Grand Theft Auto V: Arguably the most anticipated game of 2013, Grand Theft Auto V is the next instalment in Rockstar's popular open-world crime series. It's said to be five times bigger than GTA IV. Gamers will also be able to control three main characters.
Tomb Raider: 2013 will see the rebirth of Lara Croft. Following on from the likes of Bond and Batman this is an original story, charting how she went from a privileged young lady to a fearless adventurer. It looks like a more action-driven instalment than previous games in the series.
Watch Dogs: It stole the show at this year's E3. Set in the near future when the whole world can be accessed and controlled from a smartphone. Playing as Aiden Pearce you'll be able to control traffic lights and raise bridges, delay trains and jam mobile phones. It's from the makers of Far Cry and the Assassin's Creed games.
The Cave: In recent years some of the best games around have been downloadable titles from indie studios. The Cave could be one of those games in 2013. More interestingly it's a game about a magical cave that can talk.
