Deltarune

Strong soundtrack

Toby Fox's follow-up to Undertale mixes menu-based party battles with bullet-hell dodging, and enemies can be spared instead of fought. A charming, funny cast, a standout soundtrack and an unsettling meta-mystery sit beneath its colorful surface.

Xenogears

Emotional impact

An ambitious PlayStation JRPG with a sprawling, philosophically and religiously charged science-fiction story. Giant mech battles and a button-input combo system add variety, but the narrative is clearly the centerpiece.

Chrono Trigger

Pixel art

A timeless classic JRPG in which a party of heroes hops across eras to prevent the end of the world. Active-time combo combat, multiple endings and a superb soundtrack set it apart; the PC version adds bonus dungeons.

Final Fantasy VI

Strong soundtrack

A classic JRPG with a large ensemble cast, a tyrannical empire, and a dramatic world-shattering plot. The Pixel Remaster polishes the 2D visuals and music while keeping the proven turn-based combat.

Omori

Emotional impact

A surreal RPG that contrasts bright dreamlike worlds and childhood friendship with psychological horror and heavy themes. Its emotional story and memorable soundtrack stand out, and turn-based battles use emotions as a core mechanic.

Jack Move

Pixel art

A turn-based cyberpunk JRPG with atmospheric pixel art, in which hacker Noa investigates a dark conspiracy after her father vanishes. Hacking-themed abilities and timing elements give the classic formula its own flavor.

Theatrhythm Final Bar Line

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A rhythm game featuring over 385 songs from across the Final Fantasy series, where you hit notes in time while leveling a party of familiar heroes. A nostalgic celebration for fans of the music.
