Tomb Raider Catalyst Darksiders 4 All Due Out April 2028
The gaming industry is buzzing with news from Embracer Group, as the publisher offers updated timelines and exciting developments for a roster of highly anticipated titles. The updates reveal a strategic focus on expanding intellectual property across massive franchises, promising fresh adventures for fans of action, horror, and epic fantasy.
Embracer has clarified release windows for several major upcoming games, effectively narrowing the scope for some of their biggest titles. High-profile entries like Tomb Raider: Catalyst and Darksiders 4 are slated for release during the 2028 financial year, meaning players can expect them by April 2028, as Embracer’s fiscal year concludes on March 31st.
Meanwhile, other major titles have already locked in their spots. Metro 2039 and Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis are set to launch in February 2027, having previously confirmed their dates. This latter title serves as a remake of the first Tomb Raider game, bringing the classic adventure into a modern engine.
The momentum surrounding Metro 2039 is particularly strong, demonstrating how well the franchise resonates with players. The game has already reached one million wishlists, faster than any other title in Embracer’s history, signaling great anticipation for this next installment of the first-person horror shooter series.
Beyond their core franchises, the group is also actively developing new IPs. Warhorse is not only focusing on the next Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 but is also pursuing an entirely new game set in Middle-earth, which Embracer owns the rights to. While details about this open-world RPG are still light, it suggests a grand expansion of their creative potential within the franchise.
This development ties into the broader portfolio of intellectual property owned and operated by Fellowship Entertainment, which Embracer is evolving into a separate entity. This extensive library includes iconic properties such as Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, Tomb Raider, Darksiders, Dead Island, Kingdom Come Deliverance, and Metro.
Looking toward the immediate future, there are still some concrete dates to mark. The recently delayed real-time strategy game, Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War 4 is now scheduled to launch in December 2026. The updates from Embracer highlight a healthy pipeline of content and powerful IP that continues to excite the gaming community.
