Some "Coming Soon" party-based RPGs (Steam)

[ZedClampet]

(Note: I was going to do a massive post with lot's of genres when I suddenly grew bored and decided to just post what I had to the RPG section)

With the too-many-games apocalypse fully under way, it's harder and harder to actually find any one particular game, so I thought I would make this post to potentially help (probably not, but I enjoy doing these kinds of posts anyway). No other store front let's me do anything like this, so this is all on Steam. The games are probably coming to other places like Epic or the Windows store, as well. I just picked categories of games that I've seen people on here play or that interest me. There are obviously many more in each category than I'm showing. These are the ones that interest me that are targeting a 2022 release date.

Party-Based (mostly Turn-Based) RPG
Darkest Dungeon and For the King 2 are coming, but not until next year, so these are some more immediately available games:

Survive the Fall on Steam

Explore, loot and fight in an open world action game set in a post-apocalyptic future after a devastating meteor strike. Assemble your team and take the fight to the enemy or choose a stealthy approach to gain the upper hand. Expand your base to research new gear and get ready to survive the fall.

I haven't heard of any of these. I have also decided not to look at any of them lest I get tempted in adding to my to-play list. Yet I still want to thank you for your contribution.

How to find time for all these games? Any suggestions of max 2 games from this list? There's also an interesting post-apocalyptic game coming next year: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1403440/Broken_Roads/.

Nice list, but l was hoping my list would be games you never heard of before. I can make a list of RPG's that are already out that you've never heard of. I was planning on doing that sometime soon.

I don't really have any suggestions, but I like the looks of the two post-apocalyptic ones, Survive the Fall and Urban Strife. And thanks for reminding me about Broken Roads. I didn't even remember it at all, but somehow I had it wishlisted, but with my massive wishlist that wouldn't have done me any good at all.

I don't think any of the following games are party-based RPGs, but they are on my Steam Wish-list and not yet released and may not be known to everyone (we won't count Starfield as we all know about that):

Not a "true" RPG in the traditional sense, but more of an RPGish Action/Adventure. If you've ever played & loved the original Outcast, this game should make you excited.

Save 50% on Outcast - A New Beginning on Steam

Explore the breathtaking alien world of Adelpha, support the local Talans in their struggles and fight your way through fast-paced battles against invading robot forces in this 3rd-person, open world, action adventure sequel to the 1999 cult classic.

store.steampowered.com

A classic Piranha Bytes RPG reborn. Hopefully. Maybe (new developer).

Gothic 1 Remake on Steam

The Kingdom of Myrtana has been invaded by an implacable horde of orcs. King Rhobar II, in need of a large quantity of magical ore in order to forge powerful weapons, operates the Khorinis mines with all available prisoners.

store.steampowered.com

Another remake of a classic RPG. It's from Nightdive, so roll the dice as to whether it's good or not.

Save 60% on System Shock on Steam

A first-person fight to the death in the depths of space!

store.steampowered.com

A Skyrime-like RPG that seems fantastic, but maybe (eventually) overly-ambitious.

The Wayward Realms on Steam

Under the direction of Ted Peterson and Julian LeFay, lead developers of the team behind the original Elder Scrolls, Arena and Daggerfall, OnceLost Games is creating a new open-world fantasy RPG where choice and consequence are experienced on a scale never attempted before.

store.steampowered.com

A Space-Western-Open World RPG (they said it, not me). I have some doubts here, but it looks strange enough to catch my interest.

Exoplanet: First Contact on Steam

Build your path in this alien world. Do a dirty job for food or become the one who makes calls. Sometimes the right word makes a bigger impact than a big gun. Explore local culture and mysteries, and discover the harsh yet beautiful nature in this handcrafted singleplayer action RPG.

store.steampowered.com

I do hope some or most of these are playable in couch coop

I think they are pretty much all single-player games.

 

[ZedClampet]

So out of the 7 games that targeted 2022 for a launch, only 2 made it:

Queen's Wish 2 by Spiderweb Games
Circus Electrique

In slightly better news, 3 of the other 5 games now have playable demos, which I'll link here:
