INFO:

Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch! This Daemon, Max, and Ryan take a look at some upcoming open-world RPGs that could be adding something new to the genre. Last-gen games like Hogwarts Legacy and Cyberpunk 2077 added incredible levels of immersion to their franchises, and now that we have new(ish) hardware like the PS5 Pro, open-world games could be entering a new era. Ghost of Yōtei, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, The Witcher 4, and yes, Grand Theft Auto 6 could be breaking new ground in the genre. Plus we have last week's poll results, and a new poll for you to vote on at IGN.com.
