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.

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.

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.

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 - 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 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: 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.

Despite its unique weapon system and generally friendlier structuring, Lies of P hews a little too closely to its inspirations to rise above feeling like something of an also-ran. But even also-rans can be polished, attractive, and exciting experiences in their own right.
by Josh Tolentino on 13 September, 2023
Sea of Stars presents a potent mix of combat systems bolstered by a charming story and gorgeous graphical presentation that captures the essence of the turn-based classics.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Review
While built around the framework of its predecessor, Tears of the Kingdom cleverly recontextualizes the world and systems of this iteration of Hyrule. Through that it is fresh, thrilling, and one of the best games in recent memory. It's also every bit as ground-breaking as its predecessor.

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Review
While it succeeds in its own right, Wo Long doesn't quite reach the same heights as Team Ninja's Nioh 1 and 2.
by James Galizio on 02 March, 2023
Octopath Traveler II is the rare sequel that manages to improve on the original without changing too much, finding success by expanding and polishing.
by Cullen Black on 21 February, 2023
Beyond its unacceptable technical issues, lies one of the most unique takes on the Hunting Action genre in years.

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Review
Beneath all the jank and technical disaster, there's a Pokemon game that deserved better.
by James Galizio on 25 November, 2022
Between an exceptionally well-written cast, a deeply satisfying combat system, and an amazing adventure that remarkably earns its very long run time, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is a JRPG masterpiece.
by Josh Torres on 26 July, 2022
With a compelling ensemble and intriguing world to build off of, Relayer has the building blocks of a promising new IP, but too many key flaws hold it back from being truly great.
by Josh Torres on 21 March, 2022
Elden Ring deftly refines and boldly reimagines FromSoftware's tried and true formula.
by Bryan Vitale on 23 February, 2022
After nearly half a decade, Tales of Arise was worth the wait as a shining new example of what the series future may hold.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Episode Intermission Review
Yuffie’s episode is thrilling fan-service and a welcome slice of more of the same for fans of FF7 Remake, but it's also easily skippable.

Kingdom Hearts III (PC) Review
Kingdom Hearts has finally made its way to PC, courtesy of the Epic Games Store. Here's how the latest RPG in the series manages the transition to the platform.
by James Galizio on 07 May, 2021
When Cyberpunk's grim setting and mix of gameplay systems land, it is a powerfully impressive experience - sprawling, dense, clever, witty, and most importantly damn good fun. Other times, it has all the charm of a moody, edgy teenager.

Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age Definitive Edition - PlayStation 4 Review
Dragon Quest XI S is a near unrivaled masterpiece, one I wish I could erase my memory of and re-experience for the first time.

Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition Review
A modern classic reborn on Nintendo Switch, this is the best version of the best game from Monolith Soft.
