Master X Master is an outstanding MOBA for both veterans of the genre and newcomers alike.
River City: Knights of Justice is an excellent beat 'em up on the whole.
Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception is a good visual novel that blends that genre in fairly seamlessly with strategy RPGs. It's far more of a visual novel than an SRPG, but when the SRPG elements come in, they're well-done.
Portal Knights has a few shortcomings, but the overall experience is a lot of fun. Its blend of RPG-esque leveling up with crafting and a steady learning curve keep you engaged. Those looking for a solid gateway game into the crafting sub-genre should check it out — especially if they enjoy RPGs. The music does hold things back, but every other major part of Portal Knights works well.
Cosmic Star Heroine does for the 16-bit JRPG what Shovel Knight did for 8-bit platformers. It takes everything that worked about them to remind you of why those games are classics, but builds upon that foundation with a modern-day sensibility by eliminating filler.
Chaos Code – New Sign of Catastrophe doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but what it does provide is a lot of high-quality 2D fighting action.
88 Heroes is an excellent 2D platformer that makes great use of a unique premise to make it infinitely replayable.
Ride 2 doesn’t do everything it could have to become the premiere motorcycle racing game on the market, but it comes far closer than the original.
DEXED stands alongside Rez Infinite as must-buy experiences for any PlayStation VR users with a love for on-rails shooters.
Double Dragon IV continues the franchise’s legacy with possibly its best home game to date.
Saban’s Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Mega Battle is a love letter to both the show and beat-em-ups that falls short of reaching its goals. The franchise’s earliest games were largely better than this, and while this does scratch a nostalgia itch to some degree, it isn’t a satisfying gaming experience. Movesets are far too lean and there are too few enemies to keep the action interesting for very long. Dedicated fans of the show may want to check it out, but everyone else can safely skip it.
Hive Jump combines many sub-genres of action-platformers into one game, and does them all fairly well.
Perfect doesn’t do a lot — but what it does is executed very well.
Rad Rodgers: Volume One is a short, but sweet platforming romp.
The Last Guardian is Team ICO's magnum opus.
How We Soar is greater than the sum of its parts and is an incredible experience that should be played by all PlayStation VR owners.
Ittle Dew 2 isn’t perfect, but does smooth out of some of the rough edges of its predecessor.
While Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare Jackal Assault VR Experience is lean on content, everything presented in the package is outstanding.
Mark McMorris Infinite Air delivers a tough, but still highly-enjoyable snowboarding game.
Windlands is easily the best platforming experience available on the PlayStation VR, and a must for anyone who wants to see what a Mirror’s Edge-style blend of platforming and parkour is like in that format.
