1
Trailers are designed to do one thing.
2
Blow your freaking mind.
3
And some of these games look so ridiculously impossibly that they literally can't be true.
4
Like the next Mind's Eye.
5
When will we get the ambitious tech or possibly just vaporware?
6
Another Peter Molyneux game.
7
Will we ever learn our lesson with him?
8
Then there's always going to be the next live service slot from Sony.
9
And then, of course, there's
10
Blizzard's massive new announcement did they actually pull it off
11
or is it just hype hi folks it's falcon watch
12
and listen to the falcon show for free on its own channel now today on game ranks 20 upcoming games
13
that look too good to be true literally at number 20 it's neo berlin 2087 the game
14
that gives a strong first impression the trailer hits
15
you hard with the glossy unreal engine 5 graphics you got voice acting from adam jensen himself.
16
Well, the guy who plays Adam Jensen, at least.
17
He did ask for this.
18
The trailer shows a mix of detective sleuthing and gunplay with some
19
Max Payne slow -mo.
20
Looks really ambitious for a small team and a publisher that doesn't usually push games this hard.
21
People are calling it the next
22
Mind's Eye, which might be a little harsh.
23
It's definitely a simple single -player game with none of the
24
Build -A -Rocket boy push to create a platform for game developers that was never gonna happen.
25
Still, there's some big red flags when it comes to Neo Berlin 2087.
26
The website's very amateurish.
27
The studio introduction blurb has a text emoji straight out of the early 2000s internet, which, you know, fine when you're texting.
28
It does give mind's eye vibes in the gameplay and the bad cut scenes, too.
29
Oddly stiff -looking gameplay, actually.
30
Odd cuts, amateurish cut scenes.
31
Looks great in short bursts, like a lot of Unreal Engine stuff,
32
but It turns out just using an engine that can look good doesn't make a game good.
33
But randomly, you can shoot dodge like Max Payne.
34
You can flip between third and first person constantly.
35
There's a crisis weapon wheel.
36
Strong veneer of fakeness to the project, like it can't possibly be real.
37
I would love to be proven wrong, of course.
38
Small developers make great games all the time.
39
And we will see what happens when the game drops, hopefully sometime earlier than the actual year 2087.
40
At number 19 is Squadron 42.
41
The single -player narrative FPS from Cloud Imperium Games instantly gives a much more confident vibe than Neo Berlin.
42
Recent trailers show some smooth gameplay on the ground in space where you control a fighter in narrative combat missions.
43
There's tons of Hollywood talent attached to the game.
44
Cast is stacked.
45
Got Gary Oldman, Mark Hamill, Henry Cavill, Jillian Anderson, plenty more.
46
Looks like a real game with real gameplay and well -produced cutscenes.
47
There's one big but though cloud Imperium games other game is star citizen
48
Other game may not even actually be the right way to put it
49
because apparently squadron 42 is in star citizen or something I don't know.
50
It's star citizen is Technically a game does exist you can play
51
it fairly functions in any meaningful way as it currently stands
52
It's a bunch of assets thrown into a server for ardent fans to mess around with as far as games go
53
It's less of a game and more of a toy where you can fly janky spaceships in the worst way possible
54
It's nothing at all what the developers once promised.
55
Squadron 42 exists in a world where
56
Cloud Imperium Games promises the galaxy and gives us a puddle to splash around in.
57
To be fair, this is a much less ambitious game.
58
It's more of a Call of Duty -type game,
59
or what Call of Duty used to be when they were able to just pump a good one out every year.
60
But this was announced way back in 2014, and we do not have a solid release date.
61
Even with actual gameplay trailers, it still feels like the game might not exist.
62
The Gary Oldman featured in this game is like a decade younger than the one walking around.
63
And insanely, the trailers don't even mention that this is just episode one.
64
There's three episodes planned with about 20 or so hours of gameplay total.
65
So even if this does ever come out, we're getting a third of it, which is great.
66
Great.
67
Wonderful.
68
And number 18 is Blood Message.
69
It looks like the kind of stylish atmospheric horror action hybrid many people are pining after.
70
The reveal trailer really sets a mood, drops you straight into a grim, blood -soaked world.
71
Slick animations, but it's got that high -gloss look that makes you feel like, did a small team really pull this off?
72
We've seen this exact move many times.
73
Stunning vertical slice put together by a studio with no track record, promising a sprawling, deeply immersive masterclass in game design.
74
And the game just collapses under its own ambition.
75
I like the trailer.
76
It's definitely gorgeous like it looks great
77
But we got to see on the scripted gameplay running outside of the tightly controlled showcase
78
You know until we see that it kind of feels like Wishful thinking because to be frank, we've seen the wishful thinking many many a time.
79
That's the reason we're making this list it's not a new feeling
80
that we're getting from stuff like this
81
and number 17 is 1666 amsterdam it's not even fair picking on this game uh as much as people do
82
but we kind of have to this game from former assassin's
83
creed creator patrice french last name isn't the magical experience anyone
84
was hoping for this one's a bit of a cheat
85
because the game is technically playable right now it's available on Steam Early Access, and the consensus is not good.
86
It's exactly what we thought would happen after seeing the initial trailers.
87
It's an ambitious developer biting off way more than they can chew.
88
The animations are stiff and amateurish.
89
The combat system is quite basic.
90
The performance on PC is very bad.
91
I mean, it's an interesting concept, but I have many interesting concepts floating around in my own head.
92
Should I make a game?
93
Could I make a game?
94
One could argue that with the tools that have propagated in recent years, I should try to execute on those ideas.
95
And maybe I will.
96
But if it sucks, I won't release it anywhere.
97
I can tell you that.
98
And number 16 is Supreme Experiment.
99
Looks like if Nier Automata had an unholy child with Junkhead.
100
The trailer is just one bizarre jaw -dropping visual after another, but they never straight up, you know, say what the gameplay will be.
101
If you just watch the footage, you assume the third -person exploration game.
102
But if you look at the Steam page, the Steam page pretty much indicates it's an FPS.
103
So right now, it's not possible to say what
104
Supreme Experiment actually is, which makes its name pretty appropriate sounding.
105
What?
106
We'll find out supremely.
107
The description really does make it like it's everything and it's nothing, like it's an immersive sim.
108
An atmospheric walking simulator, a sci -fi thriller it may
109
or may not have choose your own adventure elements i don't know they definitely got some really talented artists
110
and some genuinely mind -blowing graphics but i need we all know
111
that good graphics doesn't make a good game right
112
we did a whole falcon show episode about the trend from a few months ago where people were saying
113
that realistic graphics were destroying games and while we ultimately disagreed with
114
that point what we did eventually settle on was that
115
if you spend too much time on the graphics and not enough time making a good game,
116
it doesn't matter if it's realistic or stylized, the game sucks.
117
This is one of those ones that I'm pretty worried about that in particular.
118
By the way, Falcon Show is completely free on its own channel and on Spotify now.
119
That episode is called Are Good Graphics Bad?
120
It's episode 20.
121
I don't know.
122
This game just looks like a big old hodgepodge at the moment, and and although it's got good graphics, whoop -dee -doo.
123
Kind of looks like the developers are just not sure what they're making, and that's not, that doesn't bode well.
124
At number 15 is Black State, another paranormal -themed shooter.
125
We've seen a glut of these types coming recently, Level Zero Extraction, Grey Zone, Warfare, Stall Zone, Active Matter, just to name a few.
126
Somehow, in this wave of nearly identical military sci -fi titles, Black State sets itself apart because it is not an extraction shooter.
127
It's just a normal spooky third -person action game with some impressive environments.
128
We've seen the premise before.
129
You're a tier one operator set into an anomaly.
130
You fight robots and other military -look dudes.
131
If you played like Trapang 2, you won't see anything new here.
132
It does look pretty great in motion.
133
I mean, in the Unreal Engine stock assets kind of way.
134
We're interested in the trailers, but then you see who developed it.
135
They've made two other games, a phone game nobody heard of and a Resident Evil ripoff called Cabos 22, I guess.
136
I don't know if I'm saying that right.
137
I guarantee you've never heard of it.
138
We have played it at Gameranx.
139
It's one of the worst games ever made, and it's really tough to give
140
Black State the benefit of the doubt after that.
141
And number 14 is Tides of Annihilation, which immediately grabs your attention with a trailer of jaw -dropping, glossy Unreal Engine 5 graphics,
142
sweeping cinematic destruction, and a brooding protagonist fighting through a collapsing, futuristic cityscape.
143
It looks like the ultimate high -budget, blockbuster, AAA action epic that you would expect from a seasoned industry veteran,
144
except, well, that's the thing, isn't it?
145
It isn't.
146
If you dig an inch below the surface, the red flags start to appear immediately.
147
The developer, completely unproven, gameplay snippets,
148
really short, heavily scripted, And we've been burned by a few too many of this thing that I'm pointing at here.
149
This looks a lot like one of the ones where they promise you the moon and then moon you, essentially.
150
Like drop, trow, and show you their ass instead of give you a game.
151
Yeah, 30 -second clips.
152
Sure, looks great, but where's that 10 -minute gameplay walkthrough that proves the game, you know, works?
153
At number 13 is Waste the Fallen, an extraction shooter with a Lovecraftian horror twist.
154
The tagline for the game is, the deeper you go, the less human you return.
155
Sounds cool.
156
Looks cool, too.
157
The trailers show off a fairly, like, claustrophobic atmosphere.
158
You and your team dive into these bizarre shifting dimensions filled with monsters and cultists and looks polished.
159
It's also distinct enough to stand out, but let's be serious here.
160
Extraction shooters live and die on the player base and developer support.
161
The genre is a graveyard of ambitious titles that launched to an empty lobby and never recovered.
162
There's a good chance you have not heard of Waste of the Fallen until just now.
163
That's a big problem for Waste of the Fallen.
164
The developer, Royal Crow, has one other game it was called Crows.
165
It was a military multiplayer shooter that entered
166
Steam Early Access back in 2022.
167
And it was shut down within a year for, you know, what I just described.
168
You know, making an extraction shooter rather than a military shooter after the military shooter failed to get any attention
169
might not be the best idea.
170
Like the military shooter thing, there's like already a winner.
171
It's called Call of Duty and there's a billion extraction shooters.
172
A little bit saturated, that market is.
173
You really gotta make something special, and there's no evidence saying that this is a developer that does that.
174
And number 12 is Masters of Albion.
175
The Undisputed King of Broken Promises is at it again.
176
We're with Jesse Pinkman on this one.
177
He can't keep getting away with it.
178
He being Peter Molyneux here, rather not Walter White.
179
But this guy's been on a rampage of bloated expectations since the 1980s.
180
He has a track record of completely fabricating things, and all of his recent games are unfinished.
181
Without a big publisher backing him up, Peter Molyneux just kind of makes bad games.
182
It's a fact, sorry.
183
Doesn't mean I don't love Fable for what it is, rather than what it was supposed to be.
184
I bring that up because Masters of Albion, Albion pretty specific in the title there.
185
Apparently this is set in the Fable universe.
186
Not so sure how that works here probably an outrageous lie anyway you can build a town
187
and defend it from enemies
188
and reviews of the closed beta were not good the trailers make
189
it look like a cartoony lively world to explore
190
but the reality is that it's a linear basic
191
and partly copy pasted mess from a different failed nft game
192
it stinks of uh minimum viable product from the get -go
193
if you're familiar with the term and probably doesn't even deserve the hate, probably just deserves apathy.
194
At number 11 is The Defiant, a great concept of Call of Duty from a different perspective type game.
195
Instead of depicting the same battlefields we've seen a thousand times in different
196
World War II games, Defiant is about the battles that happened way before the beaches of Normandy.
197
Sick a new perspective on the Pacific theaters,
198
an interesting prospect, but we'd all love to see the Call of Duty crown knocked off Activision's big stupid head.
199
The trailer for the Defiant looks a little low rent, a little stock, a little dry.
200
Looks good, don't get me wrong, but it's missing the big wow that it kind of needs.
201
It might be a good game, maybe even a great one.
202
It just doesn't necessarily look like a contender for what it's trying to be, but hey, there's always next year, right?
203
And number 10 is Gang of Dragon.
204
We want a Yakuza game with a minigun.
205
Let's be serious.
206
This is supposed to be a grittier, more hard -hitting game than Yakuza is.
207
There's no reviving of dead characters, no changing stories and remakes of old Yakuza games.
208
The trailers for Gang of Dragon, genuinely fantastic for a reason.
209
They spent money on actors, music, and non -essentials.
210
NetEase provided funding for the studio, but decided to not continue shelling out money earlier this year.
211
While there hasn't been an official announcement, sources say the developer is closed completely.
212
You can still find
213
Gang of Dragon on Steam.
214
The YouTube channel was deleted, but not all the pre -order spots.
215
Someone somewhere is holding out hope that
216
Gang of Dragon will secure funding to finish production.
217
We're not holding out hope, but if it does ever come out, it might not be exactly what it looked like it was intended to be.
218
And number nine is Hunter the Reckoning Deathwish.
219
Has anyone mismanaged a property worse than White Wolf?
220
The owners of the Vampire the Masquerade franchise botched one of our most anticipated games.
221
Bloodlines 2 was one of the biggest disappointments of the decade.
222
It's not even a terrible game, and just as a Bloodlines sequel, it's bad.
223
If it was its own thing, it would maybe be different, but it's not like a particularly good game one way or the other.
224
But that's essentially where our worries begin and end with Hunter the Reckoning.
225
The concept's pretty darn good.
226
You play as a hunter in the same universe as Bloodlines.
227
You have to expose and hunt vampires while working with a team of specialists,
228
using your skills to outwit supernatural creatures that are a lot more - powerful than you.
229
Being developed by a good team, the devs behind Terminator Resistance and Robocop Rogue City.
230
Both games fit into the fun but slightly flawed
231
Perfect 7 category that we love talking about.
232
Big point of comparison is Bloodline's 1, and our guess is that the game is not going to be nearly as ambitious.
233
We're talking about a smaller zone to explore.
234
Linear missions like Robocop, tough opponents you'll play cat and mouse with like Terminator.
235
Trailers look intriguing, but the developer information released
236
so far screams temper your expectations
237
which honestly might make it a better game like i'm not saying the game's gonna be bad
238
i am saying it what they're acting like it's gonna be is too good to be true
239
and number eight is ananta a big anime gta
240
we were briefly excited about after the initial playstation reveal showed a big city environment with fun traversal
241
and rocket launchers crisp clean anime art style all
242
you know looked like something new until we realized what it
243
actually was one of the endless endless zone zero ripoffs pushing the pc
244
and mobile platforms it's yet another anime game set in generic city where you join a squad of anomaly hunters
245
or something i don't know it's called an open world rpg
246
but it fails to mention the free -to -play nonsense
247
that will absolutely grind this game to a screeching halt the developers have stated
248
that there will be no gotcha elements
249
they only sell skins for the expensive open world action rpg with two separate cities
250
and multiple playable characters there's also custom housing premium vehicles more junk
251
that makes the game sound wide as an ocean
252
and deep as a puddle and you know how little i like that and number seven is lords of the fallen 2.
253
um probably on this list this has the best chance of being something good these developers have been trying
254
and almost succeeding at making a dark souls successor for a long time
255
now we've got multiple lords of the fallen and souls -like attempts
256
but nothing is a dark souls 4 in the way the developers have aimed for.
257
Literally, the team has stated they want to make a game just as good as Dark Souls 4, which is a high hurdle to pass,
258
partly because Dark Souls 4 doesn't exist yet, may never exist, and, well, we're not completely convinced
259
Lords of the Fallen 2 can pull it off.
260
The previous game did see a lot of updates and improvements post -release.
261
Going back to it, it's quite improved, and one of the few
262
Souls likes that remembers to add exploration to the hardcore combat.
263
I do think this is going to be a good game, to be clear.
264
I even want it to surpass the Masters.
265
Like, there are a lot of good attempts at the market right now.
266
Liza P knocked it out of the park with extremely good stuff, including its expansion.
267
And we're rooting for Lords of the Fallen 2.
268
It's just the goal they have set is maybe higher than it needs to be.
269
At number six is Ill, the new Resident Evil 7 alike that we're interested in.
270
Looks like a goopy, disgusting love letter to first -person survival horror.
271
And we were instantly drawn to the trailers.
272
As it turns out, those early showcases were more like concept trailers, ideas that may not necessarily appear in the game.
273
After a lot of years of waiting, we're finally getting a solid release date, and real gameplay footage still looks good,
274
but doesn't have that wow factor the original teaser showed off.
275
We are hopeful for it.
276
Maybe it's exactly as gross as it looked all those years ago.
277
For horror lovers, the hype train was off the charts on this tiny game, and after many years of radio silence, it kind of appeared dead.
278
We're definitely not at the fever pitch hype point anymore though Unlike a lot of games on this list
279
this game is absolutely releasing will it be like what the developers showed at the very start?
280
We'll have to wait and see
281
And number five is mudang two hearts Looks legit.
282
It's a third -person shooter with two protagonists set during a crisis in Korea Terrorists have invaded the city
283
you swap between a soldier and a k -pop star just trying to survive shooting combat stealth
284
It all looks a cut above other games on our list, like Black State, for instance.
285
It looks like a real game made by experienced developers, even if it is a brand new team with no experience.
286
The trailer has horror elements with zombies showing up.
287
It's, I mean, is it a tactical shooter and a zombie game?
288
I don't know.
289
Whatever the case, it does look great until we learned more about the developers.
290
Four months ago, insiders reported that the studio behind this game had gone bankrupt.
291
You can still find the game on store pages like
292
Steam and the Microsoft Store with the 2026 release date, the devs had reportedly been struggling financially for quite a while.
293
And most of what we've seen in gameplay trailers is just a vertical slice, similar to the old
294
Duke Nukem Forever trailers, which none of the game that was shown was actually complete.
295
Just small cross -section of small level sections show off what the game would be.
296
And games that look like this are expensive.
297
Without a publisher, it was bound to crash and burn.
298
And number four is Terray the Unbound.
299
I'm not sure if I'm saying that right, but also, eh.
300
This game tries to sell itself as the next massive generation -defining fantasy epic.
301
Revealed trailer hits you with stunning
302
Vista's massive scale cinematic combat looks straight out of a high budget playstation exclusive
303
if you dig into the gameplay footage there's generally some impressive magic slinging
304
and traversal on on display
305
but whenever a brand new studio pops out of nowhere promising
306
a sprawling seamless open world rpg with next -gen fidelity our internal alarm bells start blaring
307
i mean how many times have we followed
308
this exact same hike cycle as it goes a number of the games on this list will turn out
309
this way without question some won't some will defy expectations perhaps this one probably is not in
310
that category though the combat animations already look a little floaty under scrutiny
311
and the world map feels suspiciously empty outside of set piece moments looks breathtaking in 60 second clips
312
but we got to see an unedited hands -on demo uh
313
that maybe doesn't need a top -tier pc rig to play
314
we're kind of assuming this is an ambitious dream though and number three is beautiful light
315
Did we say
316
Black State looked like a bunch of other recent games?
317
I guess we got back confused with Beautiful Light, which does look like every other recently announced milsim extraction shooter on the market.
318
It's a paranormal PVPVE game that honestly, if you're taking it at face value, looks quite good.
319
Realistic guns, detailed animations, big open world.
320
It's all about diving in and chasing that loot high while dodging anomalies.
321
Problem is there's a lot of games that look like this.
322
Best case scenario currently is that it's like active matter, which is also like almost the same thing.
323
The twist in this game is you can raid other players as an anomaly.
324
Fun addition, but isn't enough to overcome the generic military simulation hook.
325
Everything in these trailers looks polished, professional, well -made.
326
It's also another dev team that exists to make this one game.
327
Like, when does the pattern stop?
328
We've seen this a lot.
329
Even if the game's good, there's a hundred of this game, which doesn't bode well for the idea
330
that it can launch with a big enough audience to sustain itself
331
which negates the idea of it being a good game because a good game has to continue existing
332
moving on to number two it's saw genesis uh boarding the asymmetrical multiplayer train
333
which is always a bumpy ride it's called saw
334
but it's not about jigsaw uh instead it goes deep into and the lore and gives us a new villain, the Judge.
335
Three survivors have to work together to avoid traps and escape alive, which is pretty standard for these types of games.
336
Has a slightly interesting curve ball with a World War I aesthetic.
337
No idea if that appeals to Sawfanes though.
338
The biggest question is the developers behind it.
339
Bloober Team is publishing and they've improved significantly with their latest handful of games, but they're not developing it.
340
Onshar Studios is one of the two main teams
341
and we've never been a fan of their games game deck
342
is a horribly embarrassing rpg the recent painkiller co -op is an all -time bad idea
343
that also reviewed horribly both of these games are technically competent
344
but not good saw genesis is also being made by another team
345
so there's hope maybe blooper can help these guys navigate out of the labyrinth of bad decisions
346
and make something good who knows it's still an asymmetrical multiplayer game we've yet to really get the one with
347
that genre and finally at number one it is defect game
348
that looks like the kind of sci -fi psychological thriller
349
that gets everyone foaming at the mouth on forums
350
and honestly the reveal trailer earns the hype
351
it's a master class in atmosphere dropping you into a decaying neon drenched dystopia uh you got some high tension
352
and combat and a premise that oozes mystery.
353
But let's be real for a second.
354
Whenever a game's entire marketing strategy relies on showing pristine,
355
highly -scripted cinematic snippets where every visual set piece lands with absolute perfection, that's suspicious.
356
Like, maybe check the enthusiasm at the door and introduce some scrutiny to the situation.

We've seen too many ambitious indie teams promise a mind -bending genre, redefining narrative only to deliver a linear,

Footage is gorgeous.

Trailer's well put together, but we'll have to see how the moment -to -moment mechanics hold up.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
