Upcoming releases — and the stocks they move

The games coming next, each tied to the public company that owns it. The colored chip is the part no other calendar shows: how much that release can actually move the stock. A blockbuster on a giant like Sony or Microsoft can barely register, while a mid-size hit can swing a pure-play studio like Capcom or CD Projekt.

  1. Sep 15, 2026Confirmed
    Marvel's WolverineLow impact
    Sony GroupSONY

    Insomniac's PS5-exclusive action game and a near-certain system-seller. But PlayStation is a small slice of Sony, so it's a huge game with a small effect on the stock.

  2. Sep 25, 2026Confirmed
    Onimusha: Way of the SwordHigh impact
    CapcomCCOEY

    The first new Onimusha in over 20 years. Capcom is almost entirely a games business, so a launch like this feeds straight into the stock.

  3. Oct 6, 2026Confirmed
    Gears of War: E-DayLow impact
    MicrosoftMSFT

    A marquee Xbox prequel from The Coalition. High-profile for gamers, but gaming is a rounding error next to Microsoft's cloud and software.

  4. Nov 19, 2026Confirmed
    Grand Theft Auto VIHigh impact
    Take-Two InteractiveTTWO

    The biggest entertainment launch ever, from Rockstar. Take-Two is essentially a pure-play, making GTA VI the single largest catalyst on this calendar — see the GTA 6 hub.

  5. 2026Expected
    JudasHigh impact
    Take-Two InteractiveTTWO

    From Ghost Story Games, led by BioShock creator Ken Levine. Take-Two has signaled a 2026 launch but hasn't locked a date.

  6. 2027Confirmed
    Resident Evil VeronicaHigh impact
    CapcomCCOEY

    A ground-up remake of Code: Veronica, revealed at Summer Game Fest 2026. Capcom's RE remakes are dependable hits, and Capcom is nearly all games — so it matters to the stock.

  7. Feb 23, 2027Confirmed
    FableLow impact
    MicrosoftMSFT

    Playground Games' reboot, day-one on Game Pass and also on PS5. A big Xbox swing, but immaterial to Microsoft's share price.

  8. Spring 2027Confirmed
    Final Fantasy VII RevelationHigh impact
    Square Enix HoldingsSQNXF

    The third and final part of the FF VII Remake trilogy, revealed June 2026 for a simultaneous multi-platform release. A major event for Square Enix.

  9. 2027Confirmed
    Virtua Fighter CrossroadsMed impact
    Sega Sammy HoldingsSGAMY

    RGG Studio's revival of the fighting series. Sega Sammy makes games but also runs a large pachinko and resort business, so one title moves the stock less.

  10. 2027 (expected)Expected
    Intergalactic: The Heretic ProphetLow impact
    Sony GroupSONY

    Naughty Dog's new sci-fi IP. Announced but undated and reportedly still some way off — another marquee Sony game that barely moves SONY.

  11. 2027 (rumored)Rumored
    God of War (Faye saga)Low impact
    Sony GroupSONY

    A God of War spin-off reportedly centered on Faye, plus a rumored remake of the Greek trilogy. Not officially announced by Sony.

  12. 2027 at the earliestExpected
    The Witcher 4High impact
    CD ProjektCDR

    In full production since 2024; CD Projekt has said not before 2027. For a studio that lives and dies by its own games, this is its defining catalyst.

  13. 2027 or laterExpected
    Assassin's Creed HexeHigh impact
    Ubisoft EntertainmentUBSFY

    The next mainline Assassin's Creed, a darker entry codenamed Hexe. Acknowledged by Ubisoft but with no firm window — expected around FY2027–2029.

Timing is publisher-stated where marked Confirmed; Expected means an acknowledged game with only a rough window, and Rumored means reported but not officially announced. Release dates slip often — a slip is itself a signal worth tracking. Last verified June 17, 2026.
