Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising Review
Rising is a respectable introduction to the world of Eiyuden Chronicle, with great characters, writing, and art. However, the game structure and combat have a hard time standing on their own.

The Centennial Case: A Shijima Story Review
This high-budget FMV Japanese mystery adventure is an exceptional game in almost every way, but its tedious "gameplay" sections are its largest Achilles' heel.
by Josh Torres on 14 May, 2022
Elex II is an initially promising but ultimately disappointing RPG that fails to be better than the original.
by Bryan Vitale on 30 May, 2022
Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Review

by James Galizio on 29 June, 2022
Although it is more than 25 years old, Live A Live delights with charming narratives, solid gameplay, and a well-remastered presentation.
by Paige Chamberlain on 21 July, 2022
Soul Hackers 2 is an adequate, experimental Megaten entry with some bright spots, but it doesn't quite come together as well as I hoped it would.

SD Gundam Battle Alliance Review
Artdink's first Gundam game in a decade is surprisingly a challenge as a purely solo experience, and playing with others may make this action RPG shine despite its handful of flaws.
by Josh Torres on 24 August, 2022

While the combat to this Valkyrie Profile action RPG spin-off is top notch, the rest of the game ranges from mediocre to merely serviceable.
by Josh Torres on 28 September, 2022
Despite its various shortcomings, The DioField Chronicle is a refreshing take on strategy RPGs with satisfying gameplay systems and bold narrative design.
by Adam Vitale on 01 October, 2022
The Outbound Ghost is a bland and confusing game that is as boring as it is pretty.
by Bryan Vitale on 10 October, 2022
Lost Eidolons offers a great strategic experience with thorough gameplay systems and mechanics, though its presentation and narrative fall just a bit flat.
by Scott White on 25 October, 2022
Batora: Lost Haven is a boring RPG with tedious dialogue and lackluster level design, saved only by adequate combat, respectable art, and a mercifully short runtime.
by Adam Vitale on 27 October, 2022
Asterigos: Curse of the Stars Review
Despite its rough edges, Asterigos is a solid action RPG with a satisfying story and competent combat.
by Adam Vitale on 27 October, 2022
Star Ocean The Divine Force Review
Star Ocean: The Divine Force is developer tri-Ace's latest foray into the stars with this latest entry of their long-running science fiction RPG series, and after a rocky previous entry, this new game may have righted the ship towards a bright future.
by Scott White on 10 November, 2022
While Reborn is largely an excellent re-release of Tactics Ogre (again), many of its gameplay alterations give it new flaws that will have me making caveats in recommending it (again).
by Josh Torres on 14 November, 2022
Pentiment offers a thematically striking and ultimately optimistic experience that is as engaging as it is unique.
