![]() ![]() Lords of the Fallen - Developed by former Witcher 2 developers, Lords of the Fallen looks a lot like Dark Souls, only quite a lot more colorful than that game. Great handheld RPGs (JRPG or otherwise) are a sure way to kill off the hours and distract us from more important things. Whether it can captivate audiences quite like the wonderful Origins remains to be seen, but I'm hopeful.įinal Fantasy XIII: Lightning Returns - The third game in the Final Fantasy XIII series, Lightning Returns serves as the conclusion to that particular storyline.īravely Default / Bravely Second - The handheld Final Fantasy spin-off has received enormously positive feedback overseas, and even though it hasn't hit North America yet there's already been a sequel, Bravely Second, announced. Combat, graphics (using the Frostbite 3 engine), and just about everything else I've read or seen about the game points to a major departure from its lackluster predecessor. It also has turn-based combat and a simply gorgeous-looking art style.ĭragon Age: Inquisition - The third Dragon Age looks outstanding. There's more to the story, but I'm being brief. LIST OF MOBA GAMES 2014 SERIESThis will also be the first game in the series to make it to Microsoft systems, opening the door for an even wider audience (even if Xbox has never been the land of JRPGs.)Ĭhild of Light - Possibly the coolest looking Ubisoft game still in development, Child of Light is a side-scrolling game about a flying girl with a magic sword. Kingdom Hearts 3 - The charming Disney/Square Enix franchise moves to next-gen with Kingdom Hearts 3. ![]() 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. LIST OF MOBA GAMES 2014 CRACKPillars 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. ![]()
