    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a modern creation deeply infused with the soul of classic JRPGs, carving out a bold new possibility for the genre's future. Its QTE-infused combat system brings a rare sense of impact and fluidity to turn-based battles, while boss encounters inspired by Souls-like design offer room for skill-based progression.

    Disco Elysium is a very special RPG that most of your time will be spent on reading. It features a well-written detective story, various tricky skill trees, and memorable characters. This game might be the best one of its kind. But if you can't stand reading for a long time, just don't try it.

    It's the best ever in the history of remastered games. Not only the graphical performance but also the gameplay as a whole feel like a 2019 game. The new Resident Evil 2 offers the existing fans a great opportunity to re-experience the classic horror and shows the best part of the series to the new generation of gamers.

    Words barely do justice to how impressive Donkey Kong Bananza truly is. With near-perfect sandbox design, a fully destructible terrain system, and a transformation mechanic that redefines exploration, it's an astonishingly complete experience. The game even embraces sequence breaking with deliberate design allowances. This is a monster of a title - Nintendo-level brilliance at its most terrifying.

    After five years of refinement, the official release of Satisfactory has earned its place among the best in its genre. It boasts the most impressive visuals for this type of game, and its well-designed milestone system provides players with a steady stream of goals and motivation. The deep, meticulous mechanics constantly push me to optimize the chaotic factories I've painstakingly built.

    Hollow Knight: Silksong may well become a landmark, but its uncompromising design has led to polarized reactions among players. Rather than undermining its significance, this contrast only makes it feel more authentic, more complete, and ultimately more memorable.

    Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance is a bold overhaul and upgrade of the original. It greatly enhances the depth and playability of the core Demon Companion system, providing opportunities for up-close interaction with these "digital collectibles". While maintaining the atmosphere and quality of the original story, it nearly doubles the game's content. Although there is a lot of overlap with the original, it offers enough new experiences to keep veteran players coming back for more. If you enjoy hardcore JRPGs with deep party-building mechanics and a focus on strategic gameplay, this is undoubtedly an exceptional title for you.

    Hazelight Studios has once again outdone itself, creating something truly remarkable with Split Fiction. It's bigger, bolder, and even more exhilarating than It Takes Two. Brimming with some of the most wildly inventive ideas in action-adventure gaming, Split Fiction delivers breathtaking set pieces and unforgettable level design. Every moment is a testament to the magic of co-op gameplay as two players navigate this extraordinary journey together - just as they did four years ago, but now on an even grander scale.

    Marvel's Spider-Man 2 shows steady improvement while trimming the excess. If you appreciate smooth and thrilling combat, outstanding web-swinging and flying, as well as superhero storytelling, then it's unquestionably a must-play title.

    Hollow Knight is absolutely a masterpiece. The art style is fantastic, the level designs are outstanding, and battles are challenging and fun. If you enjoy Metroidvania games, don't hesitate trying it.

    Dave the Diver is a game with a distinctive style that demonstrates the potential of the medium with its comprehensive and varied gameplay. While the late-game mechanics may feel repetitive in the full version, the enjoyable fishing experience for the first ten hours makes it worth the price of admission.

    Hi-Fi RUSH combines rhythm games and action games in a fantastic way, and the overall experience is beyond imagination.

    Monster Hunter: World is the most transformative game in the entire series. The open world is fantastic, and the ecosystem is vivid. What's more, the exploring and hunt experience will give you a serious sense of achievement, and a good amount of new humanization design makes this game friendly to newcomers. Capcom absolutely made Monster Hunter great again.

    Not like other SLG, pushing is much more important than damage in Into the Breach. Your strategies must change significantly to fit the new rules, which makes the game interesting and unique. Besides, you can find roguelike elements, a great variety of mechs, and challenging enemies in it as well. It is definitely one of the biggest surprise you can buy these days.

    Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice perfectly represents the solemn atmosphere of samurai fighting. It's much more difficult than any of the souls series games and offers a great challenge to your gaming ability.

    Tekken 8 is a great fighting game. Players of all skill levels can enjoy it, and as with all fighting games, practice and effort pay off.

    The original Bayonetta and Bayonetta 2 are still magnificent these days, and the Nintendo Switch version succeeds in allowing you to re-experience them on the latest console, even in a portable way. If you are a fan of action games but haven't tried the original version before, don't hesitate to buy the bundle. They might be the greatest action games until the releases of God of War or Bayonetta 3.

    Alan Wake 2 seems more like a triumph of technology. Remedy has put immense resources and assets at its disposal and used those strengths to earn widespread acclaim for Alan Wake 2. However, I wish the game would shine from the perspective in which it originally excelled, allowing Alan Wake to receive the praise he deserves for the story he penned.

    Xenoblade Chronicles is a must-buy JRPG and the Definitive Edition is your best choice in 2020.

    Iceborne is the greatest expansion in the Monster Hunter series of all time. New areas, monsters, and hunting mechanics make the game so fun and I can't stop playing it.

    Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth was expected to be a grand finale for Kazuma Kiryu, but it didn't deliver a satisfying ending. Even with improved combat, new minigames, and a Hawaiian setting, the story doesn't live up to expectations.

    Dead Cells looks like a simple old-school 2D platformer, but the core gameplay is modern and smart. The combat is fast, the gameplay style is various, and every time I start a new round would enjoy a different journey. This is a game that could easily cost you hundred of hours.

    Even though Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is so long that it could take hundreds of hours to explore every part of the world, it still has a magic that allows people to settle down and take their time to listen to the story it tells. It can say that the excellent world design and complex but fun combat together shaped Xenoblade Chronicles 3 to be the most unique sort of experience in JRPG.

    Three Houses is fantastic in terms of story-telling, relationship management, and graphics performance. Three different and engaging storylines make the game worth playing multiple times. Although some parts of new game mechanics don't work perfectly, the core strategy elements are great as usual.

    Death Stranding 2: On The Beach feels more like a purposeful yet uncertain journey into uncharted territory. Building upon the core mechanics of its predecessor, it makes the delivery process less hardcore, offering richer possibilities in both combat and stealth. The series' iconic "delivery" is not just an activity, but central to its narrative. If you still believe that "connections" between people hold meaning, then Death Stranding 2 is a journey worth taking.

    Dreams is a game that could make thousands of games. You can find various innovative creations on this platform ranging from games, videos to music and paintings. The tool is easy to use for amateurs developers but if you just simply want to enjoy yourself, Dreams might not be the best choice.

    For JRPG fans, Persona 3 Reload is a great way to start the year. It has more independent episodes in the story than the original and uses more cinematic scenes with lots of CGs. The new daily activities on the artificial island and other improvements make the 70-80 hours of school life more enjoyable and well thought out. Although the Tartarus dungeon is much better than before, it is still too close to the original game, which means that its repetitive nature remains.

    There is no doubt that It Takes Two is one of the best two-person cooperative games in recent years. From the moment I entered this wonderful world, I was bombarded by senses from all aspects throughout the game and shocked this masterpiece of creativity and imagination. The only question is, to Josef fares and Hazelight, this is the summit or just a good beginning?
