Every single game on that list will end up being b-tier apart from GTA (and even that I fear could be a watered down tampon of a release compared to their previous work).
 
Looks worse than the last few years

007, PB0 and Crimson Desert are the only ones appealing to me from that list.

I only care about 2 of those games (GTA 6 and Crimson Desert)

2025 was a pretty great year for me personally. E33, Oblivion Remake, DK Bonanza, MGS Delta, Dying Light The Beast, Battlefield 6.
 
Other than RE9 none of the game on your list interest me but I agree next year is gonna be great.

Now this is much better list than OP's. Thanks for reminding me I still like videogames lol.
 
Not feeling most of those games. I am kind of curious to see how Crimson Desert turns out, but don't have that much interest here docket.

Oh, Owlcat's next Warhammer 40K releases next year and maaaybe even their Expanse game.

TC's list spiraled me into depression. Yours reminded me that life was worth living.

To each his own, I got zero interest in most of this list but RE9 and Pragmata looks good though.

I prefer AAA games that actually push the hardware.
 
I disagree, most of titles listed are mostly uninteresting to me. But I will find funny what would happen if GTA6 end up being pushed to 2027, would people still say the same, I wonder.
 
Re9,pragmata,007,Gears,onimusha,Gta 6 for sure,2026 is looking great for me.will be a bumper year! Hopefully some good switch 2 games too..

Stranger than heaven and phantom blade zero are my most anticipated but...

More than 50% of those games gonna be delayed to 2027 ;)
 
Some of those absolutely will be 2027, especially with GTA6 delaying into fall.

I also have doubts given the current state of AAA how many of those will turn out good, but I'm more hopeful to be surprised on what indie to AA content comes out next year since those games don't tend to be announced as far in advance.
