Role-playing games (RPGs) have been a cornerstone of the gaming industry for over three decades. The genre consistently delivers exciting new releases each month, ranging from major titles like Starfield, Lies of P, Hogwarts Legacy, Octopath Traveler 2, and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty to more specialized offerings such as Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society, 8-Bit Adventures 2, and Little Witch Nobeta. The pipeline of new RPGs remains strong.

The ambitious nature of AAA RPGs often leads to announcements years ahead of release, creating significant anticipation. This hype, once ignited, can be difficult to contain, sometimes resulting in unmet expectations. However, when a game successfully lives up to its promise, the experience is truly rewarding. So, which upcoming RPGs are generating the most excitement?
