For over three decades, role-playing games have been a cornerstone of the video game industry. Each month brings a wave of new RPGs, ranging from major releases like Starfield, Lies of P, Hogwarts Legacy, Octopath Traveler 2, and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty to more specialized titles such as Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society, 8-Bit Adventures 2, and Little Witch Nobeta. The future of RPGs is constantly evolving.
The genre's ambitious AAA projects often boast lengthy pre-release announcements, generating considerable anticipation. This hype can be difficult to manage, sometimes leading to unmet expectations.
