Dark Souls II

Build variety

The second Souls entry sends you as a cursed undead through the decaying kingdom of Drangleic, offering punishing bosses, huge weapon and build variety, and a sprawling, branching world packed with secrets.

Dark Souls: Remastered

Interconnected level design

The genre-defining Soulslike: a bleak, intricately interconnected world of punishing combat, hidden paths and bosses that demand patience and precise timing. The remaster adds sharper visuals and includes the Artorias of the Abyss expansion.

Path of Exile 2

Build variety

A grim hack-and-slash ARPG with a sprawling passive tree, flexible skill gems and far more deliberate, dodge-heavy boss fights than its predecessor. A haven for theorycrafters who love tinkering with builds and chasing endgame loot.

Black Myth: Wukong

Lavish presentation

A visually stunning action RPG based on Journey to the West, pitting you as a staff-wielding monkey warrior against a parade of spectacular bosses. Transformations, spells and precise dodging define its demanding combat.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A demanding soulslike set in a grim take on the late Ming Dynasty, where a mysterious plague twists people into monsters. Flexible weapon builds, precise parrying and a madness mechanic that trades risk for power define its combat.

Rise of the Ronin

Historical setting

An open-world action RPG set in late Edo-period Japan where you play a masterless ronin with fast sword combat, parries and switchable styles. Your alliances between the shogunate and its opponents shape your path through a turbulent historical era.

Salt and Sanctuary

Build variety

A 2D Soulslike wrapped in Metroidvania design: stamina-driven combat, punishing bosses and a huge skill tree in a grim, interconnected world. Its hand-drawn look and rewarding exploration set it apart.
