RPGs Coming This Week, November 1–7, 2026 – Ocarina of Cryme and Seven Other Tales
Link’s first 3D adventure arrives in a spiffy new outfit this week; what more do you need to know? Actually, quite a bit! Not every publisher is avoiding November despite Ocarina of Time and Grand Theft Auto VI looming over them, and this week alone brings us three other…

[Steam page content warning: Fear & Hunger contains scenes of graphic violence and gore, use of drugs and alcohol, nudity and scenes of sexual nature.] “The dungeons of Fear & Hunger stand in front of you. You hear barking from afar. The barking is getting closer. You step…

Stupid Never Dies
With the scary season upon us, Stupid Never Dies leans fully into a bonkers, punk-zombie aesthetic, wrapped up with frenetic third-person action—minus the pumpkins and trick-or-treating. With a developer lineage tracing back to the seminal Devil May Cry and Dragon’s Dogma, this…

SQ Relax – Krystelle’s Chillwave
What is SQ Relax? Who is Krystelle of Krystelle’s Chillwave? These questions, and more, to be answered below. I once thought Square Enix’s music division retired the “SQ” moniker for their genre-specific arranged albums after Last SQ and the digital SQ Music Collections…

Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade Original Soundtrack
After surprising me with a 7-disc soundtrack for Final Fantasy VII Remake, and then a supplemental 4-disc PLUS soundtrack not long after, it should not have surprised me that Square Enix’s music team produced an additional 3-disc soundtrack titled Final Fantasy VII Remake…

House of Necrosis
Horror and RPG crossovers are in the midst of an incredible resurgence right now. Inspired by genre experimentation from the late ’90s golden age of RPGs (with hits like Parasite Eve and cult classics like Koudelka), a new crop of independent developers are flexing their…

Random Encounter 358 – Stupid (Decisions by EA) Never Die
On this episode of Random Encounter, we’re taking a trip back in time for a game that is from the 2000s and a game that is inspired by the 2000s! First up, Stupid Never Dies is an action RPG from some former Capcom devs. Hmmmm… zombies in a mall? Checks out! With sick visuals,…

RPGs Coming This Week, October 25–31, 2026 – All Hallows RPGs
With Halloween landing at the end of the week, it’s a fine time to release some spooky games. And while that is happening, most of them don’t land in our coverage at RPGFan. Still, it’s easy to see how Emberville‘s Diablo-meets-Stardew Valley still fits the bill, or how it’s a…

RPGFan Volunteer Drive: 2026 Edition [EXTENDED]
October 24th Update: We have received several applications, but we would like to see a slightly higher amount, so we have extended the deadline from tonight until the end of October! I thought about titling this post “RPGFan Seeks Fresh Blood” in the spirit of spooky season, but…

Village in the Shade
A burgeoning trend involves fusing RPG and survival horror mechanics alongside traditional horror aesthetics and atmosphere. Recent horror RPGs like Vultures – Scavengers of Death and House of Necrosis adeptly identify common fundamentals between the two genres, like resource…

Minecraft Dungeons II
Back in 2020, my three oldest friends and I sat on the phone to play the then-new Minecraft Dungeons. It was another Diablo-like action RPG, so why not? We had a blast, though perhaps too much of one, as we blasted through the campaign in one evening. Great fun; lamentable…

Retro Encounter 497 – Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Part II
I love this world because Retro Encounter is in it. On this week’s episode of Retro Encounter we dive into the story, the zones, and the incredible music of Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Who didn’t pull any rare blades in the second half? Who finally got Kos-Mos? Do the late game…

Stranger Than Heaven Hands-On Experience – A Place To Call Home!
Sometimes a great piece of media has this engrossing hold over you that you can’t explain. You immediately get pulled into the story and world they are trying to tell. RGG Studio has been creating games like this for some time now. Each Yakuza game feels like it builds on the…

Final Fantasy Resonance
There is absolutely nothing original about Final Fantasy Resonance. I don’t say that because this is an adaptation of the mobile, gacha game Final Fantasy Brave Exvius. And it’s not even because you summon and equip characters from previous Final Fantasy games. No, instead it’s…

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastered Impressions
When CD Projekt Red announced yet another next-gen re-release of The Witcher 3 at Gamescom this year, I was initially immensely skeptical. I cynically assumed they were going the Skyrim route of re-releasing the game for the sake of a cashgrab, especially since they already…

RPGs Coming This Week, October 18–24, 2026 – Can Love Consume on a Battlefield?
I appreciate that throughout October we keep seeing more spooky-themed games, because while it’s fun to have those at the end of the month and close to Halloween, we can’t play ’em all at once, so let’s spread them out! Between the colorful, Disgaea-esque vibes of Demons’ Night…

Tales of Eternia Remastered
Tales of Eternia Remastered is only my second foray into the luminous Tales series. Originally released on PlayStation in Japan as Tales of Eternia and in North America as Tales of Destiny II, Tales of Eternia later received a limited, European-only localized PSP release, which…
