Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth Review
With a fantastic premise that earns its dual protagonist direction in Ichiban & Kiryu, major combat system refinements, plethora of engaging side activities in its new beautiful Hawaii locale, and developments that enrich the Yakuza-era legacy, Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth is one of the best games RGG Studio has ever made.

Offering a stacked roster of playable characters, intuitive multiplayer action combat, and a bombastic single-player story quest, Granblue Fantasy: Relink is a resounding success.

Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden Review
Banishers: Ghost of New Eden's excellent characters and storytelling are diminished by its mundane world structure and repetitive combat.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth Review
A massive game that synthesizes two distinct eras of blockbuster game design, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth feels fresh and familiar simultaneously, while forging a new path for Cloud and the crew.

Developer Fool's Theory has crafted a solid RPG set in 1905 Warsaw that, at times, can feel like as much of an awesome documentary as it is a video game.

The first Dragon's Dogma was ahead of its time. With Dragon's Dogma 2, its vision is fully realized. The result is one of the best RPGs of the last decade.

Team Ninja's ambitious open-world action RPG is one of the best games about the Bakumatsu era ever, but its repetitive, uninspired open-world activities bog down what is an otherwise captivating experience.

Unicorn Overlord seems allergic to risk-taking, and it makes for a safe and enjoyable product that fails to introduce anything new. So when I was given just a passable game, I couldn’t help but be let down.

The Legend of Legacy HD Remastered Review
I'm not sure what to feel about The Legend of Legacy HD Remastered. I don’t really mind the game's minimalist approach to narrative, but the dungeon design, repetitive battles, and difficulty walls I hit made it hard to press on.

Neptunia Sisters vs. Sisters Switch Review
Neptunia Sisters vs. Sisters on Switch is a decent port if you're looking for Neptunia on the go, but there are much better home options available.

Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes Review
While there is room to improve and some blemishes throughout, Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes has excellent presentation & nostalgic charm, and I cannot overstate enough how glad I am that it exists.

SaGa Emerald Beyond is a bold celebration of the series' past and present, warts and all.
by James Galizio on 24 April, 2024
Stellar Blade is a substantial and gorgeous-looking action RPG with exciting combat, but its narrative is undermined by flat characterization and frequently lifeless storytelling.

The spirit of Soul Sacrifice remains, but Thirdverse's successor doesn't quite stick the landing.

Megaton Musashi W: Wired Review
Level-5's giant robot action RPG is one of the most fully-featured games in the modern era with a compelling story, fun gameplay, and loads of in-depth customization systems that makes this hidden gem, unexpectedly, one of the best games of the year so far.

Dread Delusion sets out to create a haunting open world, evoking RPGs of the past - and succeeds.
by James Galizio on 19 May, 2024
System Shock's remake is an enjoyable and well-made immersive sim that runs well on PlayStation 5, but the new gamepad control scheme leaves a lot to be desired.

Cryptmaster is a great idea, yet it stops just short of great execution

Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance Review
While the Vengeance re-release doesn't fundamentally change what Shin Megami Tensei V is, numerous adjustments and improvements allow SMTV to be the best version of itself.

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Review
Shadow of the Erdree is an excellent expansion to Elden Ring. Poison swamps, giant swords, and fingercreepers return, better than ever.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak Review
Despite my issues with some of the characters, Almata, and the underlying Xipha system, I still enjoyed my time at Calvard, seeing old friends and meeting new ones, and I am eager to return to one of my favorite long-form fictional works.

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess Review
Capcom's Kagura Action game mostly sticks the landing with its unique gameplay, though an identity crisis hold's it back.
by James Galizio on 15 July, 2024
Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn Review
Although Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has satisfying combat, this entry-level souls-like RPG is held back by some bland questing and a forgettable narrative.
by Adam Vitale on 18 July, 2024
This debut project from Austrian developer Microbird Games presents a charming title with creative, tightly designed dungeons that brilliantly utilize region-exclusive magical spells to interact with the environment in clever ways.
