What language depends upon a lot of things, such as the platform you want to target - computer, tablet, mobile phone, etc. as well as whether it's for Windows, Apple, Android, Linux, et al. Also, some parts may be one language (low-level stuff) and other parts another language (graphics, audio, etc). You obviously have a lot more to learn before you start on this long road. Some of the early PC games written by friends of mine were done in assembly language, others in Pascal, Basic, and C. These days, PC games are often written in C++ and C. A lot of Windows phone games are webapp and javascript based. Android games are usually in Dalvik (Java), and on and on.
