Any games getting released next year will be over shadowed by GTA 6. Some titles might even be delayed so they can get their shine at a later date.It was a wrap as soon as I got hype for it. We'll see it launch right before GTA and get loss in the sauce![]()
Yeah, it came outta no where.Did I just see a RKO?
Well now that I'm excited for it, it'll be releasing in 2026 instead![]()

Game looks interesting though and I've been fiending for any kind of Shadow of War replacement. I was watching Max Dood on twitch and I agree one thing this game should've had was a create a character feature. The protag is generic as hell so far so hopefully the story itself is decent.Crimson Desert: 11 Minutes of Brand New Gameplay - IGN First
