  Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) continue to be considered some
of the best-motivated Dark Matter (DM) candidates. No conclusive signal,
despite an extensive search program that combines, often in a complementary
way, direct, indirect, and collider probes, has been however detected so far.
This situation might change in the near future with the advent of even larger,
multi-ton Direct Detection experiments. We provide here an updated review of
the WIMP paradigm, with a focus on selected models that can be probed with
upcoming facilities, all relying on the standard freeze-out paradigm for the
relic density. We also discuss Collider and Indirect Searches when they provide
complementary experimental information.
