Depending on the type of game you are planning, mostly any language you are comfortable with. also depends on the platform you are targeting. mostly, java/c++/c#/Python all are pretty good options. all the best, keep coding.

I would suggest using Unity and learning some basic c# to help with your scripting needs. I feel that it is the best route to go for starting out with game development. Not only is unity free, but it is widely used and there are a ton of beginner tutorials and lessons to learn from. c# can be used with unreal and cryteks game engines. Also mobile development games using c# with Xamarin for Windows, iPhone, and Android.
