GenCon is looking to be amazing this year because there are a LOT of new games coming out - even this early in the year! And I'm hitting #BGG doing all this game research for myself anyway, so I figured I'd share it with all of you as well.
I should be putting out a new video in July with 10 More Hot Games of GenCon 2024 as even more come out.
Make sure to check out my 25 Essential Tips for First-Time Attendees of Gen Con 2023 video at • 25 Essential Tips for ...
All games mentioned are standalone games (not expansions) and are either being released at GenCon or within 3 months before or after Gen Con 2024. So you don't have to wait too long (hopefully) to get them!

I've watched a few GenCon 2024 lists today and it's interesting just how much crossover there is given how many games will be there. Great vid.
Thank you so much. Some games just rise to the top of everyone’s radar - maybe it’s a great theme, maybe it’s due to being from a publisher who delivers great games, or maybe there’s a lot of promotion.
I should be coming out with Julys edition within the week so I’m interested in what’s got to the top of the new games since the last one
@@The_BoardGame_Sherpa I'm trawling through the BGG listing myself atm, so many! Look forward to your update.
@@GirlyGamer-BoardGameGran All researched, and getting ready to record and edit in the next couple of days :)
River Valley Glassworks and Middle Ages look interesting. I hope you have fun at GenCon and have lots to show us when you get back! I look forward to that episode!!
@donnakeferlis1649
@donnakeferlis1649 Thank you as always Donna! RVG and MA seem fun, but i have to budget my wallet and I already have 4 games on the list marked to buy (one is already kickstarted)...LOL I've got quite a few GenCon related videos coming up in the next month - its such an exciting time of the year!
Glad to see Rock Hard goes to 11.
Great catch! I didn’t notice it!
OH YEAH! I'M NOT SCARED ANYMORE!!!
The cream rises to the top! Ohhhhhhh Yesssssss!
As always, the best board game info is RIGHT HERE! Thanks Sherpa!
Thanks Sheiky!!
Normally, I don’t like content creators reading text from the publisher - mainly because I can read it myself and watching someone read is incredibly boring. However, inserting visuals of the game during the reading is brilliant because my interest in hearing the text is enhanced by seeing the visuals. What I really appreciate, however, are your comments about each game, which is infused with meaningful thoughts about why the game merits inclusion in the list. Thank you for the video.
@joegamer6382 thank you so much. I agree with you - nobody wants to watch me (or anyone) just read the descriptions. I would love to have given more insight, but since these are previews, the only information about these games are those descriptions... I love doing these videos because it gives me a reason to deep-dive the games to see what I plan to get for myself at GenCon... :)
Ty! Hope to see you there!
My pleasure! See you there!
As someone that isn't fluent in board gaming compared to my companions, I heard of Under Grove. Additionally, I'm a sucker for 1 player games and actually interested to see if 25th Century will have Wine Cellar there.
@noFacebookErik Elizabeth Hargrave did Wingspan, so anything by her is going to be super HUGE... And hey, you dont have to be super fluent in boardgames - back when I just knew about Survive, i was a happy (and non-broke) boardgamer :) BoardgameGeek has it listed as 2025, so it might not be there, but they may have a demo... It does sound interesting tho!
Great info for people who are interested in what’s new at Gen-Con
Thank you ❤️
I'm most excited for We're Sinking! They just annouced they'll be releasing it for sale at GenCon! Woohoo
Very cool - found the first of titles on my July update ;) Hoping they announce Comic Hunter too
Middle ages looks interesting. I think I would pass on the others.
There’s going to be a whole bunch more coming out before GenCon
Where would be go at GenCon to play/buy these games?
Usually to the booth or separate room of the publisher of the game…. But sometimes the publisher doesn’t have a booth so they outsource it to one of the generic boardgame sellers like Asmodee or Cool Stuff….
