Catch, train and battle Pokémon across the UK-inspired Galar region, with stadium Gym showdowns, giant Dynamax battles and a roaming Wild Area. An accessible, colorful turn-based adventure with co-op Max Raid battles online.

Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky

Turn-based combat

An alchemy-focused JRPG where a pair of researchers investigate the mysterious Dusk using synthesis and turn-based combat. The element-point crafting system is the heart of the game, wrapped in a friendly, laid-back tone.

Pokémon Shield

Turn-based combat

A classic Pokémon adventure in the UK-inspired Galar region: catch and train creatures, climb the Gym Challenge and use giant Dynamax forms in turn-based battles. Accessible and colorful, with online trading and battling.

Atelier Totori: The Adventurer of Arland

Cosy, great for unwinding

Totori sets out as a young alchemist determined to become a full-fledged adventurer. Gathering ingredients, synthesizing items and exploring the map drive the experience, backed by turn-based battles and a warm, lighthearted story in a relaxed JRPG.

Atelier Ayesha: The Alchemist of Dusk

Cosy, great for unwinding

Ayesha searches for her missing sister in a gentle, melancholic twilight world while learning alchemy. The core is a fiddly synthesis system where ingredient order matters, plus turn-based battles with positional support, all under a three-year in-game time limit.

Pokémon Scarlet

Turn-based combat

Pokémon Scarlet drops you into an open region where you can freely catch, train and battle Pokémon in turn-based fights. Three story paths and co-op exploration make it more open than earlier entries, though the technical performance is rough.

LumenTale: Memories of Trey
