Get release reminders Gaming Views can notify you as games on your watchlist get closer to launch, so a release date doesn't have to disappear into the backlog of trailers, announcements and gaming news. Made by people who love talking about games Gaming Views began with the Gaming Views podcast, where we talk about the games we're playing, the latest gaming news, upcoming releases and the wider world of video games. The app grew out of a simple problem we had ourselves: there are more interesting games coming out than ever, and keeping track of all their release dates can be a pain. So we built something we wanted to use. No spreadsheets. No trying to remember which trailer said "coming this autumn". No discovering three days later that a game on your watchlist has already launched. Just a straightforward way to see what's coming, save the games you care about and get reminded when it's nearly time to play. Gaming Views helps you: Browse upcoming video game releases View games in an easy-to-use release calendar Create and manage your own gaming watchlist Receive notifications ahead of release dates Discover games you might otherwise have missed Your next favourite game could already be on the calendar. Find it. Watchlist it. Don't miss it.
