Quick intro — why this list exists
2025 was a fire hose of game announcements, and 2026 looks like it might not let us breathe either. This page is a living calendar of confirmed 2026 release windows — only games that have an actual date or a verified release window make the cut. Vaporware and wishful thinking stay off the stage until a publisher gives us something to work with.
How this gets updated
I’ll tweak this list whenever new info drops — think Summer Game Fest, Nintendo Directs, State of Play, The Game Awards, or surprise tweets from devs. If a title gets a date, it lands here. If it’s just a rumor, it waits in the wings.
