Yakuza Kiwami on Switch offers a competent handheld experience despite visual cutbacks, and the addition of licensed music in the West is welcome.

Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven Review
Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven is a lovely remake of one of Square's legacy titles and may be the best entry into the series for newcomers to dip their toes.

While Card-en-Ciel's gameplay is a strong point, everything else about the game leaves a lot to be desired.

Enotria: The Last Song is touted as a sun-lit Soulslike inspired by Italian folklore. Fans of the subgenre will find plenty to like, even if this song doesn't exactly nail the high notes.

Atlus' seven year journey to releasing Project Re Fantasy was worth the wait as it combines some of the very best ideas from their previous games into a lovely fantasy setting with a compelling cast of characters and a deeply intricate, well-designed job class system.

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Isekai Chronicles Review
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Isekai Chronicles strives to retell a chunk of Rimuru’s story, but does so through this medium to limited success.

Visions of Mana is the first mainline Mana game in nearly two decades and, despite some issues, is a great step forward for the series.

Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader Review
Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader is an uneven yet engaging game that's brimming with things to discover and a uniquely compelling narrative that is at times both hopeful and poignant.

The most beautiful cutscenes and gorgeous environments, surrounded by a plague of frustrating design choices and performance issues.

Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail Review
While it hasn't completely lost its luster, Dawntrail proves that it's about time for Final Fantasy XIV to change.
by James Galizio on 09 August, 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Cryptmaster is a great idea, yet it stops just short of great execution
by James Galizio on 02 June, 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.
by Junior Miyai on 21 May, 2024
Dread Delusion sets out to create a haunting open world, evoking RPGs of the past - and succeeds.

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.
by Adam Vitale on 21 April, 2024
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.
by Nathan Lee on 14 April, 2024
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.
by Cullen Black on 02 April, 2024
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.
by James Galizio on 20 March, 2024
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.
