Romeo is a Dead Man Review

Romeo is a Dead Man is a violent, loud, and deeply human reminder on why I love video games to begin with.

Dragon Quest VII Reimagined boxart

Dragon Quest VII Reimagined Review

Dragon Quest VII Reimagined succeeds at streamlining a lengthy adventure at the expense of player discovery and friction, leading to a version that feels like Diet Dragon Quest VII.

Dynasty Warriors: Origins boxart

Dynasty Warriors: Origins Nintendo Switch 2 Review

Dynasty Warriors: Origins on Switch 2 delivers a great portable experience of one of 2025's best RPGs with two graphics modes, great HD rumble 2, and much more.

Dynasty Warriors: Origins boxart

Dynasty Warriors: Origins - Visions of Four Heroes Review

This story DLC of four "what if" mini campaign arcs provide a decent reason to revisit Dynasty Warriors: Origins if you enjoyed its moment to moment gameplay, though its closed off nature does make the whole experience a bit hollow at its core.

System Shock (2023) boxart

System Shock Remake Nintendo Switch 2 Review

System Shock remake on Nintendo Switch 2 looks great docked and handheld, but performance is sadly not great. Our review of Nightdive's newest Switch 2 port.

Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader boxart

Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader Nintendo Switch 2 Review

Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader is an excellent RPG that you should play on any platform barring Nintendo Switch 2. This port is not ready.

Assassin's Creed Shadows boxart

Assassin's Creed Shadows Nintendo Switch 2 Review

Assassin's Creed Shadows for Nintendo Switch 2 delivers a good way to play Ubisoft's newest Assassin's Creed entry. We compare it to the Steam Deck and PS5 versions in our AC Shadows Switch 2 review.

Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake boxart

Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake Review

Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake got me to reflect on what parts of the original Dragon Quest I I found special, and it manages to elevate Dragon Quest II into one of my new favorite games in the series.

Demonschool boxart

Demonschool Review

Demonschool is clearly inspired by the horror hits of the early aughts, yet it produces a thrilling strategy game that stands on its own two devilish hooves.

Yakuza Kiwami 2 boxart

Yakuza Kiwami 2 Nintendo Switch 2 review

Our Yakuza Kiwami 2 Switch 2 review covers how it is is RGG Studio's first Dragon Engine game to hit the platform, and while it is a solid port, it is not perfect.

The Outer Worlds 2 boxart

The Outer Worlds 2 Review

The Outer Worlds 2 is one step forward, one step back, and sometimes one step to the side in an enjoyable RPG whose commentary on consumerism bleeds into the game's own position.

Persona 3 Reload boxart

Persona 3 Reload Nintendo Switch 2 Review

Persona 3 Reload is still a fantastic way to experience an Atlus classic, but the Switch 2 version isn't as good as it should be. Our P3R Switch 2 review.

Drova: Forsaken Kin boxart

Drova: Forsaken Kin Review

Drova is a punishing RPG experience that understands the value of friction, though uneven writing prevents it from being a true must-play.

Digimon Story: Time Stranger boxart

Digimon Story: Time Stranger Review

Built with the current generation of hardware in mind at last, this new Digimon Story entry triumphs in fully realizing the vibrant liveliness of the Digital World as it brings along a wealth of solid systems and mechanics to not only make it one of the best Digimon games ever, but just a damn good game in general.

Wander Stars boxart

Wander Stars Review

For players who grew up loving ’90s anime or those fascinated by experimental mechanics in RPGs, Wander Stars is worth experiencing. It may not fully deliver on the limitless potential of words, but when it hits, it feels as satisfying as the perfect sentence – or punch - landing exactly where it should.

Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles boxart

Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles Review

Final Fantasy Tactics is back in this brand new remaster that not only refines the experience for a modern palette, but also makes one of the best SRPGs out there easy for players to enjoy again.

Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree boxart

Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree Review

Despite an interesting premise and top-notch presentation, Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree only manages to be an average roguelike action RPG, failing to elevate itself beyond the ordinary.

Wild Hearts boxart

Wild Hearts S Review

2 1/2 years after its original launch, Wild Hearts has found a second life on Nintendo Switch 2

Edens Zero boxart

Edens Zero Review

Superfans of the series might find something to love if they dig deep enough – but Konami’s Edens Zero, more than anything, is another grim reminder of the unrealized potential of anime-based video games.

Assassin's Creed Shadows boxart

Assassin's Creed Shadows Review

Assassin's Creed Shadows is an impressive synthesis of Assassin's Creed game design principles from across the series' history, ably blending the sprawling scope of later entries with the focus of the game's earlier eras.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers boxart

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers Review

Chengdu-based developer Leenzee's debut game possesses an impressive world that's dazzling to behold and features solid gameplay systems, yet the state of its PC version on a technical level holds it back from greatness.

No Sleep For Kaname Date - From AI: The Somnium Files boxart

No Sleep For Kaname Date - From AI: The Somnium Files Review

To get the most out of No Sleep For Kaname Date, as a spin-off and an interquel, you need to align your expectations in advance. What it sacrifices in the typical mind-bending mystery, it makes up for with excellent comedy writing.

Neverwinter Nights 2 boxart

Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition Review

Aspyr breaths new life into Neverwinter Nights 2 with the release of their Enhanced Edition, bringing the CRPG classic to consoles for the first time and reviving its multiplayer, with the rest of the game feeling like a missed opportunity.

Yakuza 0 Director's Cut Nintendo Switch 2 Review

Yakuza 0 Director's Cut should've been an easy win, but a few baffling decisions hold it back.

Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon boxart

Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon Review

Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon is wonderfully bleak and ambitious, though the experience is marred by a lack of polish that frustratingly still feels like early access.
