10 Exciting RPG Video Games Coming In 2022 (And Beyond) 

10. Starfield

Back in 2018, Bethesda announced Starfield, their first original property in over 20 years. During that time, Bethesda Game Studios has been crafting some of the most influential role playing games of all time between the Fallout and Elder Scrolls series.

Skyrim in particular proved to be a monster hit for the studio, which has displayed incredible staying power through community mods to still be relevant today. When Fallout 76 released in 2018 thoough, it was almost universally disliked for its buggy, unfinished state and underwhelming story elements. Many fans felt that Bethesda had lost touch with their audience and the company's overall reputation took a hit.

This is why Starfield is so exciting. A single player potential return to form, the new sci-fi, planet hopping RPG Starfield needs to get the fans back onboard the Bethesda rocket ship.

So far though, details have been scarce. In 2021 Starfield received a first look, in-engine trailer which did not feature gameplay but did set a release date for 11th November 2022. Todd Howard has since gone on to call Starfield 'Skyrim in space' which should definitely set expectations at stratospheric levels.
