As a huge RTS fan, I’m getting seriously hyped for 2026! It looks like it’s going to be an incredible year for the genre. We’re talking everything from huge space battles and intense WWII strategy to surviving the apocalypse and getting lost in epic fantasy worlds – there really is something for everyone. I’ve put together a list of 15 games that I think look particularly promising. They seem like they could really push the boundaries of what RTS can be, whether it’s through smarter ways to control units, better base-building, more complex logistics, or just a fantastic story.

New Game Plus modes are becoming common in many games, not just role-playing games. Usually, starting a new game after finishing one doesn’t change the story, but some games coming out in 2025 are experimenting with this. The changes vary in how significant they are, but readers can continue without fear of spoilers.

Recently, players have begun to find members of the Black Division and RUAF, a new faction, appearing on several maps, notably Factory. Currently, these encounters are limited to the PvE mode, leading many to speculate that Battlestate Games is using PvE as a testing ground before introducing them to player-versus-player combat.

The championship match between Team Liquid Brazil and Shopify Rebellion Gold was incredibly exciting, showcasing two of the best teams in the Game Changers competition. The VALORANT series that followed was a real battle.

So, FaZe Vegas, LA Thieves, OpTic Texas, and Gentle Mates were all competing, but honestly, I was shocked when Gentle Mates actually won! It was a real surprise to see them take home the trophy – digitally, of course.

A LinkedIn profile recently revealed that the upcoming game, Turok Origins, is currently scheduled to be released in 2026. Currently, there’s no specific date for its launch.
