Final Fantasy XV looks pretty terrific, though, and I may have to make my way back to the franchise when it launches on next-gen systems. Instead of dragons and fairies, the top-down party-based RPG sets players into the wasteland of a post-apocalyptic future.įinal Fantasy XV - I haven't really been a big Final Fantasy player in years, only dipping my toes in the games here and there. Wasteland 2 - The long-awaited sequel to the classic Wasteland game, Wasteland 2 is yet another massively successful Kickstarter project chugging its way toward release. Basically the next generation of Baldur's Gate. Pillars of Eternity - One of the most successful video game Kickstarters, Pillars of Eternity is Obsidian's crack at the isometric, party-based RPG. Written by the show's creators and developed by the old-hands at Obsidian, this should be, if nothing else, the funniest RPG to hit shelves next year. South Park: The Stick of Truth - Unless it's delayed forever, someday we'll get our hands on the first real South Park RPG. The game looks like a lot of fun, either way, and is one of the games pushing multiplayer in a whole new direction, away from "massive" and toward something more intimate. From what little I've played the game stays very true to its predecessor, though we won't really know for sure until we've had time to really sink ourselves into the dark world and brutal combat of the game.ĭestiny - While it may not be an RPG in the strictest sense, Bungie's "shared-world shooter" has many trappings of an RPG. The game itself promises upwards of 100 hours for all content, some three-dozen different possible endings (or end-states for the world at least) and an overhauled combat system.ĭark Souls II - Still perhaps my most-anticipated game of 2014, the sequel to FromSoftware's magnificent Dark Souls is landing in March.
The Witcher 3 - Geralt of Rivia's final chapter, the third in CDP RED's Witcher series is the fist to take an open-world approach to gameplay.
The sequel will hopefully expand on what worked about the first game, and make it even better.
The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing 2 - The original Van Helsing was a surprisingly good Diablo-style action-RPG, with fun combat and pretty great enemies.
