Oh man, so when Rockstar goes and pushes GTA 6 back to 2026, I bet a bunch of game publishers just kinda breathed out, like, “Phew, dodged that bullet.” It’s almost funny, right? But hey, don’t even think 2026 is gonna be some kind of quiet year. Nah, it’s about to get crazy, even without GTA 6 stealing all the thunder.
And, like, why are we just talking sequels, huh? Fresh stuff is on the menu too — like a buffet or something. You’ve got this RPG called SacriFire, which sounds like a mashup of, I dunno, magic and flame wars. Warren Spector is bringing out Thick As Thieves with some kind of stealthy, actiony, PvPvE vibes — whatever all those letters mean. Oh, and there’s this indie game, Moonlight Peaks, kinda feels like Animal Crossing sprinkled with a dash of Dracula. Vampires gardening or something? I mean, sure, why not.
Dates, dates, and more dates! But you know how it is with game releases, they’re like cats — impossible to pin down. Polygon’s gonna keep juggling all the details, throwing updates your way whenever something changes — which it definitely will. Expect delays, mark my words.
Is it me, or does every year feel like the best and worst time to be a gamer? Anyway — no — so, hold on, where was I? The point is, 2026 is shaping up to be a wild ride.
