The amount of amazing RPGs to release over the past year is a bit overwhelming, with the meteoric success of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Obsidian's Avowed, the highly slept-on Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, and plenty others. It's easy to lose track of what's coming next in the genre as well considering numerous anticipated 2026 releases.
However, there's one RPG available that you may want to check out sooner rather than later if you're a Bloodborne or Fallout fan, with similar aesthetics, gameplay, and themes. The Path Into The Abyss is an immersive sci-fi action RPG with dynamic worlds and persistent NPCs that are "constantly simulated" in game, and the demo is available for free on Steam now.
The Path Into The Abyss is a dark sci-fi action shooter with serious Fallout vibes and a bit of Bloodborne grimness mixed in. It's an "open-world survival shooter set in Buenos Aires" with exciting and promising role-playing systems, such as the dynamic NPCs that you can befriend or antagonize and will "remember" your actions when you return later.
Players experience Buenos Aires "after the arrival of beings alien to our planet," which has been ravaged by climate change...
