Bradford checked out the upcoming Soulslike-RPG, The Last Hero of Nostalgaia, during PAX West 2022. From its tight, precise gameplay to its snarky, humorous narrator, it might have been the highlight of the show for him.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 released on Nintendo Switch on July 29th and since then we've been putting the hulking JRPG through its paces. Check out Garrick's thoughts on more than 100 hours in the world of Aionios.

Growing up, Bradford loved martial arts movies. Games like Jade Empire and Age of Wushu also left a measurable impression on him, and he's yearned for an open world RPG with Wuxia elements. Where Winds Meet, debuted at Gamescom 2022, looks like it's what he's been waiting for.

Neverwinter is an MMO that has been around for quite some time, though it's one Bradford tried at launch and let it fall by the wayside. With a renewed interest in Dungeons and Dragons, he's picked it back up. And to his delight, it's rather fun still.

Harebrained Schemes brought its tactical combat RPG, Shadowrun Returns to the PC back in 2013. Since then, the series has spawned two sequels, expanding on the universe. Now the classic cRPGs are on console, but how well does the experience translate? Mitch explores in our review.

From the studio that brought us the brilliant Bloodline Champions and Battlerite, Stunlock Studios have always been tantalizingly close to creating something truly special. Their latest, V Rising, just hit Early Access, and Lewis is certain it's going to bleed you of your free time.
