Random Video Game Title Generator

Generate a real video game title from decades of gaming history, from classic arcade and 16-bit hits to modern open-world blockbusters, to find your next game to play.

About this generator

This generator draws from 600 real video game titles across 15 categories spanning eras and genres, from Classic Arcade & NES Era and 16-Bit Era Classics through the PlayStation, N64, and Xbox 360 generations to modern open-world, RPG, shooter, platformer, horror, strategy, racing, fighting, indie, and live-service hits.

Every result here is drawn using crypto.getRandomValues() -- the Web Crypto API's cryptographically secure randomness -- instead of Math.random(), so it's genuinely unpredictable, not just statistically random. Learn more.

What people use it for

Players use it to find their next game when they're out of ideas, especially when filtering to an era or genre they're in the mood for. It's also useful for a gaming trivia night, a "have you played this" icebreaker, or rediscovering an older title worth revisiting.

How it works

Generate draws one title at random from the full 600-entry pool using the site's cryptographically secure randomness, guaranteed not to repeat whatever result is currently showing in single-result mode. Filtering by era or genre narrows the pool before drawing.

Common questions

Are these real games?

Yes -- all 600 are real, released titles, not invented.

Can I filter by era, like only PS2/Xbox/GameCube era games?

Yes -- use the filter button to pick one or more of the 15 categories, which mix era and genre. Generate will then only draw from titles in the categories you've selected.

Will it show me the same game twice in a row?

Not in single-result mode -- each new roll is guaranteed to differ from the one currently on screen.

Does it include modern live-service and online games?

Yes -- Online, Battle Royale & Live Service is one of the 15 categories.
