Granblue Fantasy: Relink - Endless Ragnarok Review
Relink's major expansion is highly impressive, but it's important to set expectations of what it brings; it doesn't completely revamp the game from top to bottom, but it builds upon the endgame of Cygames' action RPG with many new quests, characters, and systems to power-up your roster once more.

Beast of Reincarnation is a bold new title from Game Freak that liberally takes inspiration from a handful of other games, including Pokémon, but manages to twist it all into something charmingly unique.

Steins;Gate Re:Boot is the best version of the classic story, even with some caveats.

You can feel the XCOM DNA in Bit Reactor's debut title, Star Wars Zero Company, but its cast of rogues is the special sauce that helps it shine, despite a somewhat lackluster story and unfortunate performance issues.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword Review
Onimusha: Way of the Sword is a stunning return for one of Capcom's most overlooked series, with a truly spectacular combat system and boss battles that constantly evoke the dynamic feeling of an action film.

The Blood of Dawnwalker Review
Rebel Wolves' debut project is an instant classic, and one of the best RPGs of 2026
by James Galizio on 31 August, 2026
Despite its brutal release timing and several noteworthy shortcomings, this offline conversion of Another Eden is a fantastic game that plays beautifully with one of the coolest New Game+ modes that's been done in an RPG.

Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter Review
Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter continues its winning streak with excellent storytelling, robust and fluid hybrid action/turn-based combat, and jaw-dropping music and environmental design.

Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave Review
Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave is a massive SRPG and an extremely ambitious game. While its tactical battles, exploration, and management systems are excellent, a disjointed narrative holds this entry back from its potential.

With a colorful ensemble that's explored in-depth, a vast glossary that's fun to read, and an ambitious cinematic live-action presentation that blends still shots and video clips, this new sound novel from IzanagiGames is a delightful read that highlights the strength of its format.

Control Resonant pushes the bounds of what Remedy Entertainment's quirky formula can achieve. An action-RPG that has a few growing pains, but sprouts into something monumentally special by the end.
