Dark Souls 3 is a successful mechanical and thematic culmination of this beloved series, and while its console version isn't quite as smooth or pretty, it still generally performs admirably and remains a joy to play.
Dragon Quest Builders is a wonderful concoction of open world creation tools with RPG elements sprinkled throughout. It is sure to appeal to fans of Dragon Quest, building games, and newcomers alike.
Ashes of Ariandel is a fine addition to Dark Souls 3, but does not strive far beyond simply being anything more than just adequate.
Yakuza 0 excels in all that it sets out to do and may well be on its way to becoming a modern classic.
A thoroughly engaging action platformer from start to finish that is sure to appeal to anyone with even a passing interest in the genre.
This experimental final look into the world of Dark Souls is fascinating, but also comes with a few critical missteps.
Cosmic Star Heroine is a fun space adventure and throwback to the 16 Bit era of JRPGs while also bringing enough unique ideas to stand all on its own.

World Of Final Fantasy makes its way onto PC, but stumbles a bit in the process.
Shadow Of The Colossus is a magnificent game with an atmosphere that becomes all the more intoxicating the longer you breath it in.

The translation from Switch to PC only exacerbates Octopath Traveler's underlying flaws.
Four years ago in 2015 when Koji Igarashi took to Kickstarter, he wanted to prove to the suits of the games industry that people still loved Castlevania. If they wouldn’t give him the series name, he and the fans would make sure it lived on in spirit. Now, in 2019, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is finally here, and it’s everything we hoped it to be. I might be late to the Igavania party, but it made me nostalgic for a bygone era of gaming all the same. As it turns out, the notion that this kind of game is antiquated turned out to be just a strange illusion.
Shadowbringers has only further solidified XIV's status as one of the greatest Final Fantasy games ever made.
Darq has some frustrating stealth encounters and an overabundance of jump scares, but those small blunders aren't enough to take away from the sense of wonder that comes from helping Lloyd navigate his nightmares.
