Role-playing games (RPGs) have been a cornerstone of the video game industry for over three decades. Each month brings a wave of new titles, ranging from major releases like Starfield, Lies of P, Hogwarts Legacy, Octopath Traveler II, and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, to more specialized games such as Labyrinth of Galleria: The Moon Society, 8-Bit Adventures 2, and Little Witch Nobeta. The RPG landscape is constantly evolving.

The ambitious scope of many AAA RPGs often leads to announcements years before release, generating significant anticipation. This hype, once ignited, is difficult to contain, sometimes resulting in unmet expectations. However, when a game successfully delivers on its promise, the result is truly exceptional.
