Overlord II

Fantasy setting

You play an evil Overlord commanding a horde of unruly Minions that smash enemies, loot the land and solve environmental puzzles. Dark humor and the joy of being the villain define the experience as you tear down a glorious empire.

Yakuza 0

Open world

A gripping yakuza crime drama set in bubble-era Japan, where brutal street brawls with switchable fighting styles sit alongside hilariously absurd side stories, karaoke and business management. Kiryu's and Majima's intertwined tales are among the series' finest.

Giants: Citizen Kabuto

Distinctive, stylised art style

A quirky blend of third-person shooter and real-time strategy on a mysterious island, where you play as tiny space-faring Meccs, magical Sea Reapers, and finally the colossal Kabuto. Irreverent humor and three very different playstyles set it apart.

Yakuza 4 Remastered

Strong, story-driven narrative

Four protagonists, each with a distinct fighting style, tell a dense crime drama in the Kamurocho nightlife district. Its charm lies in mixing a serious yakuza plot and brawling with wildly quirky side activities.

Fable III

Open world

You lead a revolution against your tyrant brother, then sit on Albion's throne yourself and must weigh promises against a shrinking treasury. It pairs cheeky British humor and easygoing combat with an industrial-era fantasy kingdom that reacts to your morality.

Cult of the Lamb

Distinctive, stylised art style

As a possessed lamb you found your own cult, managing a village of adorable woodland followers between fast roguelike dungeon runs. Its charm comes from the clash of cute visuals and gleefully macabre humor.

Little King's Story

Fantasy setting

You play a young king leading a crowd of followers with different jobs to fight monsters, dig up treasure and grow your kingdom. A storybook look is paired with irreverent, cynical humor.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity

Fantasy setting

A fast-paced hack-and-slash set in the Zelda universe, telling the story of the Great Calamity 100 years before Breath of the Wild. You swap between Champions and heroes, mowing down enemy hordes with flashy special attacks.

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth

Lavish presentation

The second chapter of the Final Fantasy VII remake sends Cloud and his companions across a vast world in pursuit of Sephiroth. It blends real-time combat with tactical command menus, offers sprawling regions and plenty of minigames, and delivers a cinematic, emotional story.
