Open-World RPGs That Could Define tTe Next Console Generation

If the next generation of gaming consoles arrives in 2027, what can we anticipate, and how will games look compared to today’s hits? How much better will the graphics be? To explore this, we’ll focus on large-scale, open-world role-playing games planned for release in 2027 or later – games that could really showcase the new consoles. While details are limited for many of these titles – some are still early in development or haven’t even been officially announced – they all point to an exciting future for gaming.

Crimson Moon Action-RPG Confirmed for PS5

Players are already drawing comparisons between this new game and several beloved classics. The sword fighting feels similar to the Dark Souls series, while the intense music and violent action evoke Doom. The game’s unique style, which features creatures from biblical lore like the Nephilim, is reminiscent of the Darksiders franchise. The storytelling is expected to follow a similar path, with a rich fantasy world enhancing the action. Standing out among recent announcements like the surprise release of the new God of War and numerous sequels, Crimson Moon was a highlight for many during the State of Play event.

Mina the Hollower Gets Exciting and Encouraging Update

Yacht Club Games, the creators of Shovel Knight, are aiming for another success with Mina the Hollower, a new game inspired by classic retro titles. Unlike Shovel Knight‘s side-scrolling gameplay, Mina the Hollower is a top-down action-adventure game, similar to older Zelda games. A demo was available on Steam during Steam Next Fest in June 2025, and players who tried it will be able to continue their progress when the full game releases. Luckily, it doesn’t seem like fans will have to wait much longer to play the complete version.

Game Freak’s Beast of Reincarnation Confirms Release Date

Even though Game Freak is best known for the Pokemon series, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary, the studio has been highlighting its new game, Beast of Reincarnation, in recent showcases like Xbox’s Developer Direct and the February PlayStation State of Play. Game Freak has created other original games in the past, such as Tembo the Badass Elephant and Little Town Hero, but because they’re so closely linked with Pokemon, any new projects they announce generate a lot of excitement. Beast of Reincarnation seems to be their biggest and most ambitious game outside of the Pokemon franchise in years, and fans now have a release date to look forward to.

Dragon Ball: 7 Characters With The Highest Power Levels in the Frieza Saga

I’ve been following the power levels of characters throughout the Dragon Ball series, and it’s interesting how many remain officially unknown. While the video games try to quantify things, the most reliable information comes from the manga itself – things like official guidebooks, chapter notes, and special pamphlets. But even with all that, it’s still limited. Considering what we do know about the Frieza Saga, specifically on Namek, I’ve put together a list of the characters with the highest confirmed power levels, focusing on their strongest forms.
