A list of upcoming RPGs that I cobbled together; let's add more to it! (2020, 2021, 2022, etc.)

Nice, got this thread on watch now.

 

[Comrade Grogu]

He'd have to credit the source, imo.

Should a credit RPG Codex anyone?

 

[RPGam3r]

So selfishly I ask if we could organize this into quarters and maybe some visual flare on the type of RPG (ARPG, SRPG etc.) and platforms it is going to be on?

Again totally up front here with the selfish request.

If you're taking a massive list like that and not crediting the creator, that's a bad thing. You can just put in where you got the list from, it's not a big deal. I'd recommend not using it if you don't want to do that. It's up to you. I'm subbed to this thread either way. Can't go wrong with lists of upcoming rpgs.

I'm going to alphabetize the list right now, but I'll get to your suggestion later.

 

[nacimento]

Spellforce III: Fallen God Expansion. I believe it is stand-alone.

 

[sweetie]

Great thread. Going to put it on watch. 👀

 

[Comrade Grogu]

If you check the list currently, you'll find that it has all been alphabetized.

Any more suggestions and additions are welcome.

So, these are the two that im looking forward too. I would say they are still considered RPGs, but both are fairly lose lol.

First up is Sakuna of Rice and Ruin. More of a action platformer RPG, with some rice farming management. Here is the latest trailer for it, with a release date announcement finally lol:



Second is Outriders. Kinda closer to Destiny in terms of "rpg". Like Gears of War mixed with Destiny's RPG mechanics.

OUTRIDERS on Steam

Outriders’ brutal and bloody combat combines frenetic gunplay, violent powers and deep RPG systems to create a true genre hybrid.

Sure.

Vague Shakespearean theme.
Playable party members are Imogen (the leader), Viola, Paulina, Rosalind, Beatrice, Miranda, and Kate.
Social sim element between dungeons a la the later Persona games.
Combat visuals reminiscent of Shining Force & Golden Sun games. Combat gameplay based on our previous games like Cosmic Star Heroine.

Basically, imagine a modern Persona game with a Shakespearean magical girl theme, an indie-sized budget, a shorter runtime, and more of a comedic bent.

This sounds amazing! Wil definitely keep an eye on it.

 

[Hella]

What does everyone think? Should I use this a resource?

Click to shrink...

I'd recommend against it, personally. The few things I see coming out of the Codex have kept me far away from it.

 

[Woylie]

Eastward's one of my most anticipated indie games. Action RPG with a Mother 3-esque visual style and quirky humor, and it's going to be on Switch.

 

[Chromie]

Also Logic Artists has started work on a third Expeditions game, as of yet untitled and with no release date but it was announced at the end of 2018.

Was Vikings any good? I heard absolutely nothing about it.

I never finished Viking, but while it was a little rough at launch, it was way more ambitious than Conquistador and a much better game too.

[Mentalist]

Spellforce II: Fallen God Expansion. I believe it is stand-alone.

You mean SpellForce III, right? I doubt they"d go back to II after releasing 1 expansion for 3 already.

Don't worry, I typed it into Google and got SpellForce III, so no confusion.

😅

Yeah, missed an I.

 

[7thFloor]

Dwarf Fortress has an RPG mode and it's getting an accessibility overhaul/steam release this year or next year.

 

[His Majesty]

Was Vikings any good? I heard absolutely nothing about it.

Yes, it focused less on resource management and is more of a traditional CRPG than Conquistador but still very good. Similar setting to AC: Valhalla actually where you sail to England and can choose whether to go for diplomacy or conquest in order to strengthen your own homeland.

Okay, for now, I'll try to put it into quarters by each of the first letter of the titles. So "A" will have it's own section with a space between titles that start with the letter "B." How's that sound?

I'll try to use place the types of RPGs they are in a parentheses next to each name later. All good?

 

[Comrade Grogu]

Self-promotion from me

I try to keep a list of dates updated for 2020 RPGs here -> https://www.rpgsite.net/feature/8830-the-rpgs-of-2020-every-rpg-and-their-release-dates . I am missing a few of the one you have, seems like mostly ones that dont have store pages.

Some notes: I stick to confirmed English releases only, mostly avoid mobile RPGS unless they are very notable (like Tales of Crestoria, recently)

I actually plan on putting up the 2021 RPGs feature soon.

Click to shrink...

Huh, I did not catch this...

Also, if anyone has anything more I should add to this list, please tell me.

Furthermore, I think someone also asked if I should use the Upcoming RPGs list on RPG Codex? Maybe I could use that and simply give more information to each of the listed? Or would using RPG Codex be unethical?
