Welcome. It’s time to look at the Upcoming Steam Games in April 2026 that we have on our radar. However, aside from our Upcoming Steam Games, if you play on Nintendo Switch, we also have an Upcoming Switch and Switch 2 Games article.
Upcoming Steam Games
Furthermore, not all games to be released are listed here. Alternatively, you will see games that the other gaming sites don’t mention. We are taking note of these games, and you can expect reviews for many of them if given half the chance. It should be noted that unless we have some personal experience with the game, there’s a link to the descriptions on the Steam website.
Storytime Cats – A Twilight Tale – April 1st
Storytime Cats – A Twilight Tale is a hidden object game set in a magical storybook world. Search for playful cats across 7 hand-drawn levels, each brimming with charm and cozy twilight magic!
Fishbowl – April 2nd
Fishbowl is a visual novel about becoming an adult and seeing your childhood in a new light. Drowning in feelings of grief, isolation, and the responsibilities of adulthood, Alo receives an unlikely lifeline in the form of a magical talking fish from her childhood. With Paplet as her companion, Alo unravels the threads of her past, giving way to a new future.
Clean Up Earth – April 5th
A relaxing co-op restoration game where you vacuum waste, rebuild ecosystems, and watch nature return in real time. Play solo, with friends, or in online multiplayer sessions with up to 25 players. Community gameplay can help support real environmental initiatives with no extra spending required.
Kalina reviewed Clean Up Earth and said this in her conclusion:
Clean Up Earth is easily one of my “podcast games”- I load up a podcast or an audiobook and start the game. It is a beautiful, vibrant game, but unfortunately, the inability to skip levels or at least have a hint system if you get stuck means you might not be able to finish it. Still, if you are willing to take that risk and you need a new, relaxing, and satisfying experience that doesn’t involve cleaning in real life, Clean Up Earth might be the game for you.
A Planet Full of Cats – April 14th
A Planet Full of Cats is a hidden-object adventure with metroidvania-style exploration in true Devcats fashion. Explore diverse biomes, unlock new powers and uncover ancient secrets!
A Storied Life: Tabitha – April 14th
A wholesome narrative puzzle game about the objects we leave behind and the stories they tell. Complete a loved one’s damaged memoirs by exploring their home and packing away their things.
Kalina reviewed A Storied Life: Tabitha and gave it our highest score of Two thumbs up:
A Storied Life: Tabitha is, without a doubt, a charming game, even with its somewhat heavy subject. While part of life, the topic of death and what we leave behind is never easy. Still, the game manages the topic with grace. It turns something heartbreaking into something positive, showing that we always leave something behind in the relationships we forge and the people who love us.If you are in the mood for a thoughtful and wholesome narrative puzzle game, I urge you to try A Storied Life: Tabitha. I think there’s no reason you won’t like it as much as I did.
Moses & Plato – Last Train to Clawville – April 15th
A murder mystery where you are the main suspect! An ambassador on a peace mission has been killed on board the Clawville Express. Time progresses as you sniff out clues, eavesdrop on conversations, and interrogate passengers. Can you solve the case before the train reaches the last station? Or else.
Kalina reviewed Moses & Plato – Last Train to Clawville and gave the game our highest score:
I love adventure games, have a soft spot for trains, and especially enjoy the combination of the two. It sounds like a niche genre, but this is actually my third “murder investigation” on a train, after 2024’s Loco Motive and 2023’s Murder on the Orient Express. Each of those games brings something new to the table, and Moses & Plato – Last Train to Clawville is certainly one of the more unique spins on the story. I hope this is not the last I’ve seen from Moses and Plato.
Cleaning Up! – April 16th
Make mountains of trash disappear in seconds, and enjoy the satisfying feeling of turning messy spaces into organised and clean environments. This is a simple cozy game to unwind with and spark some joy.
Vacuum, brush, mop, spray – there are many ways to make a place sparkling clean. As a new Cleaning Gig Worker, you will take on a variety of requests – declutter a hoarded-up apartment, spiffy up an old haunted mansion while avoiding ghosts, or solve puzzles in an ancient temple and find (and clean) the treasure room. Who knows, some of these might even seem familiar.
Soozi Q played the demo of Cleaning Up! and said this
I played the demo for Cleaning Up! for about an hour and completed all the areas in the demo. I really enjoyed myself. The soundtrack was peppy and yet low-key at the same time. I cleaned 4 areas – an apartment, a coffee shop, a museum and a castle. The graphics were nice, the areas didn’t look totally realistic, but they had a funky kind of feel to them. I liked the look of the game.
Gecko Gods – April 23rd
Set sail for a world built for curiosity in Gecko Gods, a serene puzzle-adventure platformer where you explore a forgotten archipelago through the eyes of a tiny gecko.
Climb across sunlit ruins, weave through lush caves, and uncover the remnants of an ancient civilisation, all at your own pace. Each path holds something new to discover as you glide between islands on your small wooden boat, every stop offering new puzzles to solve, insects to snack on and secrets to uncover.
Mina reviewed Gecko Gods and gave it our highest score of Two Thumbs Up:
Gecko Gods was well worth the wait. I found this lizardy adventure to be fun, gorgeous, and very engaging. The puzzles are fun, and the main character is so well animated that it feels real. I did have a few issues with the camera, but the rest of Gecko Gods was so perfect that I didn’t mind. It is one of the best games I’ve played so far this year, and I know other puzzle game lovers will enjoy it as well.
Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth – April 30th
When Moomintroll unexpectedly wakes up early from his winter hibernation, he finds himself completely alone for the first time, in a world he barely recognises. The familiar landscape of Moominvalley is now cloaked in the frosty veil of the Lady of the Cold. Initially seeking someone to care for him and longing to banish winter, young Moomintroll reluctantly embarks on a journey into the unknown, learning to forge new friendships and help those in greater need than himself.
Yvonne played the demo of Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth and said this:
The demo shows what Moomintroll: Winter’s Warmth is about: it promotes a message of tolerance and unity, which is so important in today’s day and age. As Moomintroll discovers a frost-covered Moominvalley, he must work together with his neighbours to banish the Lady of the Cold’s grip across the land.
Winx Club: The Magic is Back – April 30th
Winx Club: The Magic is Back captures the essence of the Winx universe, delivering an enchanting experience with a mix of magical combat and puzzle-solving. Play as all six members of the Winx Club, each with their own magical abilities.
inKonbini : One Store. Many Stories – April 30th
inKONBINI: One Store. Many Stories is a cozy, narrative-driven slice-of-life game with light simulation elements, centred on human connection and everyday moments.
Play as Makoto Hayakawa, a college student spending her summer behind the counter of a small-town convenience store, in a colourful world inspired by early 1990s Japan.
Your days are shaped by simple, tactile actions. You stock shelves, tidy displays, and prepare the store for customers, not to optimise numbers, but to settle into a comforting rhythm. Between tasks, you explore the store and its surroundings, notice tiny details, and connect with regulars whose lives gently intertwine with yours.
Through branching conversations and meaningful choices, your interactions shape relationships and reveal intimate stories of a close-knit neighbourhood.
