Role-playing games (RPGs) have been a gaming mainstay for over three decades. The genre consistently delivers several notable 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 games such as Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society, 8-Bit Adventures 2, and Little Witch Nobeta. The RPG landscape is constantly evolving with new additions.

The genre's ambitious AAA projects often boast lengthy pre-release announcements, generating considerable anticipation. This hype, once ignited, can be difficult to contain, leading to occasional disappointments. However, a game that fulfills its promise is truly a remarkable achievement. So, which upcoming RPGs are generating the most buzz?
