Onimusha: Way of the Sword revives a long-dormant franchise that's been out of commission for two decades. In a triumphant return, it blazes onto the scene with deliberate, exciting combat and a gorgeous, immersive, and authentic Japanese setting.
Star Wars Zero Company proves that Star Wars and tactical RPGs are a perfect match. The excellent combat and memorable cast make this an easy recommendation for strategy fans.
Brigandine has returned with its newest entry, Adglobe's Brigandine: Abyss. There are some janky mechanics still present, but can its unique brand of tactical gameplay still capture the hearts of RPGamers?
Cygames' Granblue Fantasy: Relink has returned with a major expansion, Endless Ragnarok. How well does it expand the wonderful multiplayer combat of the original and does it drastically increase the difficulty?
Beast of Reincarnation's greatest strength is its sense of exploration, with excellent traversal and a beautifully atmospheric world. Although its story and technical issues prevent it from reaching greater heights, Game Freak delivers a solid action RPG with plenty of potential.
Culdcept Begins offers a vibrant hybrid of board game and monster-battling concepts, but it struggles to find its own identity. Its shallow narrative and over-reliance on randomness prevent it from standing out.
This leaves Cassette Boy as a brilliant concept held in a flawed shell. The perspective-based puzzle mechanics are clever and well-explored, providing a real sense of satisfaction as when those solutions click and the full potential of snapping objects in and out of existence is realized.
LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight offers a celebration of over 80 years of Batman history. While its ambition may not be fully realised with a few technical hiccups, it feels like the title is appropriate in all the ways that matter.
The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales transforms HD-2D into a fast, rewarding action-adventure game. It trades the calmer pace of traditional HD-2D RPGs for a more energetic experience without sacrificing atmosphere or charm.
Although much of the creative personnel is different, ZA/UM persists and has released new title Zero Parades: For Dead Spies. The narrative espionage RPG comes with some strong world-building and mysteries to uncover.
