In this article, we introduce and study the concept of $n$-Gorenstein injective (resp., $n$-Gorenstein flat) modules as a nontrivial generalization of Gorenstein injective (resp., Gorenstein flat) modules. We investigate the properties of these modules in various ways. For example, we show that the class of $n$-Gorenstein injective (resp., $n$-Gorenstein flat) modules is closed under direct sums and direct products for $n ≥ 2$. To this end, we first introduce and study the notions of $n$-injective modules and $n$-flat modules.
