Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster is a great way to experience the first entry in one of gaming's biggest franchises.
Samurai Warriors 5 had an ambitious goal: give the franchise a reboot so it feels revitalized and fresh but also maintains the essence of what fans enjoy about the franchise.
Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights is a fantastic metroidvania.
Edge of Eternity is a love letter to classic Final Fantasy and Xenoblade games.
Guilty Gear Strive proves there's still some fight left in 2D gaming.
Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown seems lacking for a game having the word "ultimate" in its title. On one hand the fighting system is every bit as great as fans of the series remember and with regular online matches and the Room Matches players who love taking the fight online can have countless hours of fun.
Maneater is a ridiculous, fun title that should be applauded for its ambition of making a viable action RPG starring a shark.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Wrath of the Druids offers a sizeable amount of new content to an already huge game.
NieR Replicant ver1.

Collection of SaGa Final Fantasy Legend is obviously directed to either SaGa historians or people looking for an RPG nostalgia fix.
Cyberpunk 2077 is excellent and one of the must-play titles of 2020, but unfortunately this statement needs to be clarified depending on the platform.
I wish I was able to play the original Rune II to see how bad it truly was and get a better sense of how much Rune II: Decapitation Edition improved it. At its core it’s a fun Viking hack and slash looter, like a third-person Borderlands set in the Viking age. It doesn’t achieve true greatness as it stands, with the technical issues not helping matters. But those aside, Rune II: Decapitation Edition is a fun, accessible game that’s better with friends, with potential to improve with future patching.
