Role-playing games (RPGs) have been a cornerstone of the video game industry for over three decades. The genre consistently delivers a steady stream of notable releases each month. This includes major titles like Starfield, Lies of P, Hogwarts Legacy, Octopath Traveler II, and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, alongside more specialized offerings such as Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society, 8-Bit Adventures II, and Little Witch Nobeta. The RPG landscape is constantly evolving with new additions.

The ambitious nature of AAA RPGs often leads to announcements years before release, generating significant anticipation. This pre-release hype can be difficult to manage, sometimes resulting in unmet expectations. However, when a game successfully lives up to the hype, the result is truly exceptional. So, which upcoming RPGs are generating the most buzz?
