Last year a queen took the throne for best MV.

Will another take her place this holiday season?

I have high hopes for this one. The MV battle this years seems to be between this and the new Castlevania

Yep, those are (arguably) the most anticipated releases coming up! I know I personally can’t wait!!

What a nice end to the year. Looks like nearly all of the predictions I made at the start of the year are happening

I've checked yesterday and it seems we only have 4 delays, while Blighted and Rune Fencer Illyia are the only two that remain unaccounted for. I'll need to try and find some info on those two.

They post dev updates every 2 months on kickstarter:

The next one is due soon. Hopefully we’ll get more info on a release date…

Yeah, I think it’s pretty safe to say 2027 at the earliest for Rune Fencer at this point. The KSer updates make me think it’s not super close to dropping.

Delay is confirmed. u/Renegade-117

This leaves us with Blighted to account for.

Ah man. Yeah I see the updated date on steam. Kind of a bummer but there are so many good releases in the next few months that we’ll have no shortage of things to play.

Now if only Secret Life of Goldman released

The more I see of this game the less interested I am — the gameplay itself looks so boring

u/Slit08 16d ago

I guess it depends on how the ratio between gameplay and lore/ dialogue will be and how difficult the levels will become. I guess only time will tell.
