PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted will air on Thursday, November 30 at 10 am PST (1 pm EST, 6 pm GMT, 7 pm CET) to reveal the 25 most exciting games in development on PC.
This year's second PC Gaming Show event is a little different than our annual June showcase, and an all-new concept: It'll deliver a ranked countdown of 25 of the most exciting upcoming PC games voted on by over 70 expert panelists. The show will include new trailers, in-studio interviews, and announcements about games like Homeworld 3, Path of Exile 2, Unforetold: Witchstone, and Everywhere.
The Most Wanted list is the result of a voting process created by PC Gamer and undertaken by a group of industry luminaries, critics, and content creators that we've dubbed The Council. Each member of The Council scored a big selection of upcoming PC games based on their excitement for their eventual release, with some weight given to how much or little is known about each. The resulting list is an expression of what games the industry's most prolific individuals can't stop thinking about.

So this doesn't sound as if any new titles will be announced at all, unless they throw in any surprises at the end. Does mention new trailers for already announced games though. (Third trailer for Replaced, please, please, please.)
When they say the show will be taking a different format this time, I hope that means they took on board the fact that everyone thought the format of the last one was making people cringe so hard their organs were hurting.
