Atelier Yumia: The Alchemist of Memories & the Envisioned Land Review

While the combat system has its flaws and the gameplay doesn’t innovate much within the open-world genre, Atelier Yumia is a fantastic starting point for newcomers to the Atelier franchise.

Monster Hunter Wilds has all the potential to become the best game in the franchise's history, even if it's not quite there yet.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is a dense numbers-driven RPG and a remarkable improvement from its predecessor, with an immersive 15th century setting, satisfying role-playing, and impressive cinematic chops.

Dynasty Warriors: Origins boxart

Dynasty Warriors: Origins Review

Taking the long-running hack n' slash series into a fully-fledged action RPG experience, developer Omega Force has revived this series revolving around the Romance of the Three Kingdoms in a stunning fashion at the cost of scaling back what it used to offer before.

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 boxart

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.

Ys X: Nordics boxart

Ys X: Nordics Review

Ys X: Nordics' excellent and refreshing combat stylings are diluted by tedious exploration, uneven visual presentation, and a ho-hum story.

Metaphor: ReFantazio boxart

Metaphor: ReFantazio Review

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.

Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader boxart

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.

Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail boxart

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.

Elden Ring boxart

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.

System Shock (2023) boxart

System Shock (2023) Review

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.

Dread Delusion boxart

Dread Delusion Review

Dread Delusion sets out to create a haunting open world, evoking RPGs of the past - and succeeds.

Stellar Blade boxart

Stellar Blade Review

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.

Dragon's Dogma 2 boxart

Dragon's Dogma 2 Review

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.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth boxart

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.

Persona 3 Reload Review

Persona 3 Reload is a fantastic remake of the game that set the course that the Persona franchise still follows today.

Granblue Fantasy: Relink boxart

Granblue Fantasy: Relink Review

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.

Wandering Sword boxart

Wandering Sword Review

While Wandering Sword may appear to be an imitation at first glance, this entertaining Wuxia-style adventure is one of the most unique RPGs I've ever played, despite stumbles in localization and polish.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 boxart

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed Review

Monolith Soft's standalone prologue to Xenoblade Chronicles 3 offers a satisfying conclusion to the company's last decade of RPGs.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet boxart

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet: The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero Review

Gamefreak's latest DLC improves the game in some ways, while not in the ways that would matter the most.

Tales of Arise boxart

Tales of Arise - Beyond The Dawn Review

Tales of Arise - Beyond The Dawn is conceptually an interesting epilogue, but stale questing and trite plotting leave me apathetic to this unexpected expansion.

Star Ocean The Second Story R boxart

Star Ocean The Second Story R Review

Star Ocean: The Second Story R has brought a cult classic into a new era. It’s been thoughtfully retooled, but it’s still packed with all the heart and soul of the original. Graphically, it’s gorgeous, and the new quests and features range from fair to fabulous. It’s one of my favorite video games in even finer form.

Cyberpunk 2077 boxart

Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty Review

Phantom Liberty itself is an all-time great expansion, taking all of the best elements of Cyberpunk 2077 and cranking them all up to eleven.
