There are plenty great games still coming October and even more leading up to the end of the year.

After the initial excitement surrounding new releases comes the heart-sinking realisation that we can’t afford most of them.

Of course, if you do some bargain shopping and look around a fair bit you will no doubt find these games for cheaper, but the Average Joe will likely be paying a premium.

We took the 5 most anticipated PC games of October and broke down how much exactly it would cost to buy all of them in South Africa.

Mafia III (Steam) – R699

Gears of War 4 (Windows 10 Store) – R999

Battlefield 1 (Origin) – R999

Titanfall 2 (Origin) – R999

Civilization VI (Steam) – R899
