Second Wind's Most Anticipated Games of 2026

Blood of the Dawnwalker does look cool.

Screamer is a reboot of a franchise which originally started in 1995 - so old it used software rendering on MS-DOS. It used to be available on GOG, not sure if that's still the case as the entry no longer shows a price - but that may be because I have it in my GOG library. Good to see it revived, it was a good series.

It's hard to not be excited or want to talk about games that are coming out when you've been an active member of their community for a while but I still can't help but be excited by Sacrifire. I've been following their development since the KS campaign and the game looks super promising. Other than that, and the other games I mentioned in the write in the other day, some of my most anticipated titles don't even have a release date. Alabaster Dawn looks stellar and the demo was incredible, Shadow of the Road also looks very promising with its setting and character relationship system, WH40K Dark Heresy is the second Warhammer CRPG from Owlcat and I trust their track record, and The Time I Have Left is a turn based game with similar dodge mechanics to E33 with a time limit and the demo proved to be incredibly atmospheric and interesting. It still has some rough edges to work out but what's there is still engaging enough to carry the game by itself

Crimson Dessert looks so sick, WWE can wait a year.

Elder scrolls 6. This is the year.
