GamingBolt has profiled fifteen role-playing games that are slated for release in 2014, with the list including such as expected title as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Dragon Age: Inquisition, Project Eternity, and Lords of the Fallen. A couple of blurbs for the aforementioned games:
This single player RPG is coming from our friends at Obsidian Entertainment who are building a rather flexible and interesting game. Project Eternity is scheduled for release in 2014 on Windows, OSX and Linux, giving it a pretty good amount of exposure. This kick started game has a lot of backing, and at the time had been the highest funded game through kickstarter. It's planning on going back to the roots of companion RPG titles like Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights.
Any fans of classic, real-time RPG titles should be salivating in anticipation of getting their hands on Eternity. The game boasts customizable characters along with multiple party members to help you, giving the player more choices than they can possibly exhaust in one play through. It should be easy enough to get your hands on too, with this game being released through digital distribution sites like Good Old Games (GOG) and Steam. While this game is only coming to various personal computer formats, the design is looking to make it incredibly accessible. Player should be able to run this game on just about any, fairly modern computer that's available.

Another action RPG is coming. Not too much is known about it yet, other than the game gives players plenty of control over their character design with lots of customizable options for players to mess around with. It's also a free roam design that allows gamers to explore just about every part of the world that they're playing in. The game does seem to follow the standard story ache of one man against incredibly powerful and surely unbeatable odds.
City Interactive does have a good thing going with this one though, even if the story may not interest you, the massive creatures that you can battle should. Lords of the Fallen has some good talent behind it's development, some of which have worked on the likes of The Witcher series. If those developers can bring even a bit of magic from Projekt CD Red, then this will definitely be a game to keep your eyes on in 2014.
