An unofficial website that tracks games in the Epic Games library may have accidentally revealed a bunch of upcoming games. The site, known as EpicDB, was shut down shortly after it shared information taken from the Epic Games Store catalog. However, this didn’t stop people from examining the list and sharing their discoveries.
Screenshots of the list of games from various publishers like Bethesda, Sega, Sony, Square Enix, and others were posted on a forum called ResetEra. While some games like Turok were easily recognizable, others were listed under mysterious codenames like “Parkside” or BioShock 4. There were also titles under codenames that had not been previously mentioned. For example, some users speculated that “Momo” might indicate a potential remake of Final Fantasy 9, while “Selma” could be the PC version of Red Dead Redemption 1. The codename “Utah” might suggest that the PC version of The Last of Us Part 2 is close to being released.
Epic Games has taken action by updating its system to prevent websites like EpicDB from accessing unpublished game titles in the Epic Games Store catalog. A spokesperson for Epic Games, Brian Sharon, stated that they have released an update to prevent third-party tools from revealing any new unpublished product titles.
Despite this update, there are still many games listed under unknown codenames such as CurlyWurly from Sega and Brownie from Bethesda. This leaves internet detectives with plenty of mysteries to unravel.
It’s fascinating to see how leaks like this can give gamers a sneak peek into what might be coming in the future. While some of the information may be speculative, it definitely generates excitement and anticipation among the gaming community. As fans eagerly await official announcements and releases, these leaks can provide a glimpse into what could be in store for them. The gaming industry is constantly evolving, and leaks like this add an element of surprise and intrigue to the overall gaming experience.
