***************************************************************
In order to keep track of upcoming RPGs I decided to compile a list.
I'll be relatively loose on the what defines an RPG, so I have included Battletech, as even though it is primarily a turn-based strategy game, it has substantial RPG elements (the story based campaign mode, character stats and progression, etc.)
However, in order to be included on the above list, a game must be meet the following qualifications:
(1) PC Exclusive- at launch PC (including Windows, Mac, Linux, C64, etc.), but no confirmed plans to port / release the game on consoles, tablets
(2) Single-player only (optional co-op a la D:OS is obviously acceptable, but no MMOs or exclusively multiplayer games like True Messiah
(3) Commerical game- No freeware; while some of it like Heroine's Quest is fantastic, there's far too much shovelware, half-finished RPGMaker games, etc. to keep bother keeping track of
So I'm not including potentially good games have planned console releases… Most of these are AAA titles, so I'm so we've all heard about them anyway.
I'm also intentionally avoiding vaporware, included RPGs that have been postponed and not actively being developed as far as we know…. Has to be some evidence that the game is being worked on, screenshot, concept art, or at least announcement from a developer that has shipped titles.
Have I missed anything? Please reply to let me know and I'll add it to the list if it meets the requirements.
I'll include games in Early Access. Not sure if I should include enhanced editions aka director's cuts etc of existing games (e.g., Icy: Remastered). Thoughts?
Anyway, I hope some of you will find this list useful and discover RPGs that you hadn't even heard of. Prepare to get hyped and probably ultimately disappointed!
