[@iksdistek]

i used to think that i was a "retro gamer" at heart but the recent releases in the JRPG space have completely turned me around. Make no mistake, I'm still planning to finish Koudelka soon, but it's overwhelming how spoiled we've become with all the 2023 and 2024 releases in this space.

[@Thtambitiousguy]

At 32 I’m so grateful to be a JRPG fan during this era…feels like I’m living through another golden age . I somehow missed bloomtown but everything else i already planned to get. Thanks for another informative and well put together video TKN!

[@pandaman1331]

33 here and I totally agree. Though I think it's a matter of mindset. Great Jrpgs were always released with a whole of years witth nothing good released. Like a typical recession cycle. It's al a matter of taste of course. But I`m still convinced that if you are open mindet and not nostalgia clouded then there are a lot of good games out there.

[@Thtambitiousguy]

@@pandaman1331TOTALLY agree. And I’ve never been the “back in my day” type of guy, I just feel right now is reminiscent of the 90s in terms of high quality games that will stand the test of time. Labors of love, memorable characters and adventures. In 10 years a lot of these games will still be talked about Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth is the purest example of that for me currently.

[@Xenaximus]

Absolutely loving this channel. You keep me up to date on a plethora of upcoming RPGs, as well as bringing new games to my attention that I may have never come to discover otherwise. Currently playing Unicorn Overlord and been waiting over 3 years for Eiyuden to release. Not much longer now!

[@TheKisekiNut]

Probably burn out, it's a lot of games especially if you're playing them back to back. I imagine I'll have a similar issue with Yakuza/LAD even if I love it.

[@eliotwildermann]

Yoshitaka murayama not getting to see the release of his game is heartbreaking 😢

[@Scuzoid_Melee]

There's also Dragon's Dogma 2 on the 22nd. This year is stupidly stacked.

[@mattmilliken1510]

The unicorn overlord demo is basically the fully unlocked game with an 8 hour timer, and progress carries over, so there was no reason to wait. I also didn't find out until yesterday and the game is out and I'm playing the full game now, but I wish I would have started with the demo a week ago.

[@TheKisekiNut]

Still, I'd get blocked at 8 hours. I'd rather have an uninterrupted playthrough, even if it was a small gap between demo and full release.

[@Canalnameyouhappy]

8 hour demo that carries progress into the full game? Shit, that's good, and even longer than some action games. I'll totally try it, thanks for the info man.

[@mattmilliken1510]

@Canalnameyouhappy yeah it's great. Don't think it's overly simple with the first hour, give it a chance and I'm sure you'll like it

[@BlueCrimson10]

Untrue. The demo ends after the big main mission for the first continent regardless of your time, and there is at least one mission the demo won't let you take on besides that. The good news is there are 99 save files and you can just save after every fight and resume the demo at any point in that timer.

[@ordinaryhuman5645]

Ys 10 being big and more open would be a welcome change after Ys 9. Looking forward to that one for sure.

[@Atomos89]

Omg. I didn't even know we got a global release date for Ys X yet.. Thank you! So hyped.

[@TheKisekiNut]

It only just happened like a couple of weeks back, so it's quite easy to miss.

[@davezwieback4208]

I played the japanese Version. It‘s a great game i can’t wait to play the english version.

[@ringtail99]

[@dyttom8607]

I literally can't wait for Eiyuden! I already know I'm going to EAT the incoming backer demo/beta!!!

[@MiamiSunrise]

Reynatis is also a lesson I wont learn from if its mediocre either haha! Furyu games for whatever reason always draw me in, they do things in ways that just appeal to my JRPG interests whether they fully flesh out what they are intending or not. There is so much to work with here and all of these are on the must buy list especially if they have a physical release which thankfully most do. Thanks for showcasing these TKN!

[@TheKisekiNut]

Give it a month after release, I'll probably be realising that that I got duped again!

[@jdrobertson42]

My copy of Unicorn overlord arrived, but has to wait for Persona 3 and FF7 Rebirth. We’re spoiled for choice this year.

[@tomoroboros]

I only got around to persona a couple of weeks ago (assessments and exams demanded my time instead) only for it to immediately get supplanted by ffvii rebirth. I mean I played the unicorn overlord demo and loved it but it’s at the bottom of the list for now sadly

[@Djw8991]

So excited for Metaphor refantazio, after soul hackers 2 kind of flopped for most people and atlus saying they wanted it to be a third pillar for them I really hope Metaphor ends up filling that role

[@TheKisekiNut]

It looks promising, could be the franchise that Atlus are looking for.

[@snowenn]

I do hope they make more Soul Hackers games. It wasn't bad, it just had some (rather big) flaws and if they could work them out, it could turn into a really nice series.

[@wingedmirage4226]

Finally someone else remembers that Decapolice exists lol. Last thing I heard it’s coming out at the literal end of the year (though maybe this is just a placeholder date). Btw, “green around the gills” doesn’t mean a newbie, or means someone who’s sick

[@jamesrule1338]

Unicorn Overlord is so good. I hope you like it. Ys X is definitely the one I'm looking forward to the most this year (Ok, I might be slightly more pumped for Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, but it's a close race). So many good RPGs on the horizon. It looks like it's going to be a good year for gaming, if nothing else.

[@TheKisekiNut]

I can't wait to try it out, I haven't heard a bad thing about it yet.

[@ChannelRaznoff]

I recently went back to console gaming primarily just for the ability to buy physical discs. I don't like the idea of companies going back and editing out things like Square-Enix did with Remake. While that change isn't anything I actually care about, it sets a precedent. I just don't trust video game companies anymore for many, many reasons. As for JRPGs I'm looking forward to, Dragon's Dogma 2 is probably my most anticipated. Visions of Mana and Metaphor: ReFantazio would be the next in line after that.

[@Anpeo]

What an exciting year for jrpgs. Can't wait for Ys 10 and Visions of Mana. Also, Dragons Dogma 2 in just two weeks! Great list and great background music (have to get back to Atelier Ryza 😅). Cheers!

[@btones]

Referring to the PS5, “I don’t really have the desire to purchase a console that’s in its final years of life cycle…” You’ll have to explain this one cause I really don’t think we’re anywhere close to the PS5’s “final years.” As of today, the system isn’t even 3.5 yrs old. Although the “average” lifespan for most consoles is 5 years, that average has been trending up. If something like the Switch can be stretched to 7 years, the PS4 (which I still seeing new releases) can go for 10+, the PS5-which spent two years in short supply, amidst a game industry that often spends half a decade developing titles-probably has many, many more years of life left before the PS6 is eventually released.

[@connergaskell1909]

Its such a great year my three top anticipated are YS Nordic, Trails through Daybreak and Metaphor re:Fantazio there my holy trinity of JRPGs this year but thinking about 2024 were spoiled for choice on the genre

[@creekandseminole]

On a side note, I'm super excited to finally get to play Tokyo Xanadu ex for the Switch. It'll be out this June. Also I loved Shin Megami Tensei 5 and I really wanted to jump back into it so I'm also getting the SMT5 Vengeance release in June as well.

[@okidokiyowyow356]

Thanks for the list. I'm waiting on Eiyuden and Suikoden 1 and 2. I'm happy that most of these are going to be in a pc

[@salzprinz5782]

Even though we haven't seen anything yet I look forward to the third Death end re;Quest game which was announced for summer 24. The second game was still a bit rough but a clear improvement over the first and while everything else from Compile Hearts is not my cup of tea this series somehow got me. JRPGs with horror influeuences are kinda rare, so I hope this series doesn't die yet.

[@alanwattie6093]

Personally I liked the first more than second. Feel like they dropped or changed too many elements that I enjoyed in the first game and it never had the same feeling of risk that I appreciated in the first one. Hope the new ones are a return to some of the original elements.

[@alanwattie6093]

Most excited for Kuro and Ys. Suikoden is a series I missed out on back in the day and became way too expensive so I’m excited I’ll finally get to play it.

[@Rob7274]

I don’t believe the PS5 is in its last stage of life cycle lol

[@thecognitiverambler8911]

Wonderful list! I share many of your picks: I haven't gotten to it yet, but Unicorn Overlord looks amazing. Suikoden I and II are masterpieces (that I've beaten many times each) and you're in for a treat! I hope to revisit them again soon, but haven't gotten to yet. I've been a mana fan for over 30 years, it was probably the JRPG (Secret of Mana) that made me fall in love with RPGs as a kid. Must-buy for me. You just put Bloomtown and Metaphor on my radar. Both look amazing! Trails goes without saying, and finally, Eiyuden is the one I'm most excited for. I backed it immediately, and if it gives me the feeling the original 2 Suikodens did, or anything like those adventures, I'm very ready for it!

[@ryancraig110]

Quick tip when writing a script or talking about a series that has a number two entry in it, avoid using the word too because it can easily get confused with two, use words like as well or also instead, because when you said it has elements of persona too I thought you were saying it has elements of person two, so while that may in written form it doesn't when you were just hearing the words

[@SirBanana1992]

I'm definitely most hyped for Ys 10 in english too. I already played it imported from japan on Switch but I'll be looking forward to playing it on my beast of a PC in full english being able to fully immerse into the story just as much as the gameplay this time!

[@TheKisekiNut]

100% - my PC was made for games like Ys X. Sure, it won't push the system anywhere near it's limits, but just having peak performance for that series is an unwritten rule.

[@wendyjones3967]

I picked up Unicorn Overlord but it has to wait. I'm currently playing Dragons Dogma: Dark Arisen. Most of the games you showed here are on my list as well. I'm also excited for Dragons Dogma II and the Legend of Legacy remaster.

[@tuanis90]

I'm not sure how I feel about Ys X, as I personally do not like Adol. I was able to enjoy VIII and IX because of all the other party member options, so having that removed is probably not going to be my cup of tea.

[@TheKisekiNut]

Adol is the face of Ys, the earlier games were pretty much solo adventures for him. So the franchise most likely won't be for you.

[@AsakuraYukiko]

I pre-ordered Stellar Blade. I wanted it since it was still called Project Eve. I'm getting Nordics, too.

[@Adam.C]

I LOVED Suikoden 2. I have so many fond memories of it as a kid. I'm not full of hope because Konami sucks lately but I'm crossing my fingers.

[@CyberBits96]

the ost you use so nostalgic omg

[@devin8367]

About 15 hours into Unicorn Overlord and its amazing. Definitely a contender for my personal game of the year

[@christophelemaire4551]

I still wait for Eiyuden Chronicle : Hundred Heroes gameplay videos before eventually choosing between these two, even if what i saw from Unicorn Overlord is really good though.

[@Terranigma23]

Bloomtown looks so good. Another that I'm quite hype for this year it's "SacriFire". :)

[@Simoss13]

I am really looking forward to know more about Towers of Aghasba. Can't wait for this release

[@TrvisXXIII]

It’s interesting how Korean developers are also working on DokeV, a highly stylized Pokémon game. Noticing a parallel in their design aesthetic when it comes to graphics and fashion on the characters they create. It kinda looks like stellar blade was made in the same engine.

[@snowenn]

DokeV looks super interesting. Thanks! That's another one on the wishlist.

[@JayceCH.]

It doesnt even look like a Pokemon game grifter.

[@jmaster4941]

I'm loving Unicorn Overlord and I'm really excited for Decapolice!

[@louvella-sama]

Super excited for Ys X Nordics! Already pre-ordered one for switch and for ps5

[@Truth-Freedom-Justice]

The only disappointing title is YS X which is downgraded from 8 and even 9... 😢 (I played Asian ver last year and 100% completed) From a diehard YS fan😂

[@user-pq3vd6oc1c]

can't be worse than 9 though, from another diehard fan I really didn't enjoy 9. At this rate they'll never top Felghana.

[@dekaynine6347]

Can u give us reasons why I’m curious

[@13thknight75]

Imma wait for the Ys.. really excited

[@jimkirk2527]

Daybreak is my game of the year. Just playing Rebirth and enjoying it. Replaying Suikoden is also something I'm looking forward too. Not so sure about eiyuden but very sure about Deca Police. This year is actually doable - I love it :D

[@abysskun9518]

Damn, no mention of Versus XIII or Verum Rex in the pitch for Reynatis? That took some restraint on your part

[@juzweytnc]

[@uppernimbus]

[@BenPuckett]

Metaphor is easily my most anticipated game, I am ao daggum stoked for it.

[@cabssoprano]

I only have 4 games on must play list for this year: Persona 3 Reload, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Trails Through Daybreak, and Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance (I never played the original switch version, heard it ran sluggish on the hardware so I held out for a possible playstation port). I want to try and make some headway on my backlog this year with XC3 and the Ys games taking the focus. That's the only reason Ys X isn't on that must play list, I've only played Ys IX before and I want to see how many of the previous games I can get through

[@flynrazor7714]

I always wanted to get into YS, I’m LOVING the style and the ship combat has me hooked. Would I have to play the first couple considering this game seems to be after YS 2? Or could I get into this one first since it’s an early adventure for the MC?

[@alanwattie6093]

Ys are all mostly stand alone adventures so you shouldn’t really have any issues jumping in anywhere in the series.

[@TheKisekiNut]

They're pretty much all standalone games with some references to prior titles here and there in later canonical titles. But they don't really go beyond references for the most part, so you're fine to start basically anywhere (though I'd say don't start with Ys IX as that has more connections to the past games than the rest).

[@N9ndo]

Really nice video for someone like me who likes RPG (and particularly JRPGs) but is not that knowledgeable ouside of the more mainstream titles and want to get more into the genre. On a side note regarding the PS5, the console came out in late 2020, taking the general 7years life span of consoles and the pandemic into account i wouldn't be surprised if the next generation come out in 2028. But i understand not wanting to buy a console specifically for a couple games though.

[@S_Hyde]

Whenever something has "A different xyz" I instantly feel it's gonna end up being very samey. That being said, Bloomtown looks very neat.

Btw Reverse collapse code name bakery is releasing on March 21/22

[@Eagleknight815]

Phew....2024 is just stacking more and more on the backlog. But thats not a bad thing!

[@Apamaru]

Such a grand year for JRPGs... There's also Shin Megami Tensei Vengeance, Dragon's Dogma 2, the Elden Ring Expansion... I hope you get into the Yakuza series through 0! As I've been playing Yakuza 8 (powerful GOTY contender!) there have been many times where I've thought about the great journey it has been from 0 to 8. This series has that great feeling of a BIG interconnected story being told through many games. Though more episodic than something like Trails (esp. with the first few games), the continuity still adds a lot of gravity and emotion to each installment.

[@AntiRiku]

I'm not sure if Stellar Blade fits in this list but I'm glad you included it 😅 Definitely one of my most anticipated titles

[@yohonet]

Including this game and not talking about FFVII rebirth is crazy to me. Rebirth is such an amazing PS5 exclusive... nothing in common with remake.

[@AntiRiku]

@@yohonet Meh, I personally couldn't care less for a game riddled with so much unnecessary censorship

[@zaemzoom6807]

For real man this is year is stacked for jrpg it’s insane man. Unicorn overlord is great just from playing the demo I’m now convinced to play it later on. Like summer alone has 3 games waiting to be played for me being trails through daybreak, SMT V, Tsukihime, and Elden ring shadow of the edtree (ik the last two ain’t jrpgs but cmon). Then come fall there’s gonna be Persona 3 DLC, Ys X and metaphor rephantazio. Like theres too much I’ll have to cut down on which I plan on playing and sadly the only one I can think of is SMT V since I already played the switch release. Now watching your video has reminded me of both eiyuden and suikoden remaster. Let me just say this I haven’t played suikoden 2 yet but I’ve played 1 and from what I remembered it was already a fun game to me so I might have to pick it up again. And also with stellar blade I might have to look into it later too cause that actually looks pretty cool.

[@jeremyfusenliu3859]

bloody hell, this is gonna fill up my backlog somewhat, looking forward to Daybreak and Ys X. Heres to hoping that Final Fantasy Rebirth comes to PC (Unbroken hopefully) along with Stellar Blade.

This should be very interesting to me as I normally don't keep up much with upcoming game. Got too much to play already. I say that, but I am actually aware of a high number of the games in this list. I am very excited for Visions of Mana. The Trials of Mana remake was a great comeback for the series, and I hope that can keep that rolling. Personally I didn't like Suikoden 1 that much, so I can't say I'm super excited for the remasters or Eiyuuden. But I've always meant to give the series another shot, so I am cautiously optimistic. I've said before I'm so far behind in Trails that I don't get excited for new entries. But I do intend to play through Zero and Azure this year. Cards RPG is one I actually had not heard of. But I am interested - I like deckbuilding when it isn't rogulike. Definitely getting Stellar Blade *if* it comes to PC one day. And oh man, I cannot wait for Ys X. Probably my favorite JRPG series going right now what with the latest Atelier games dropping the ball hard IMO. The rest I don't think I'm all that interested in. Maybe the Furyu game, but they disappoint me every time.

[@martinomagic9230]

I am playing Unicorn Overlord right now, and it might just be the best strategy RPG I have ever played. I can't say for sure since I am only 10 hours in, but the fact that I could not put it down and nothing in it feel tedious is amazing lol. The world map you walk over gives depth and a sense of immersion to the game, unlike most strat games where it's just click a node. The combat and gameplay systems are the perfect balance of easy to pick up and fun/hard to master for that good strategy feeling. For the negatives, the story is kind of meh so far, but it might get more interesting. I kind of doubt it though since it's just a war story with just humanoids, so It's nothing special or unique. The other small problem might be there is quite a bit of enemy class variety, but it seems like it's just going to be just human who share the same classes as you. So it doesn't look like there will be any interesting, unique fights or boss fights. But again both these negatives are based off someone who has basically ignored the main story quest and has just run around exploring so far lol. Maybe shit hits the fan and everything get way more interesting as the game progresses. Regardless, the foundation of the game is enough for me to be thinking of it non-stop even while I am not playing it. Which is always the sign of a great game!

[@TheKisekiNut]

Always a good sign when you can't put a game down!

[@klocks2543]

I’m looking forward to a lot of these but Metaphor RF is at the top of that list. I was vaguely glad when I thought Deca Police was coming out 2025 cus my list is too long as it is.

I can wait for Ys X even longer, because somehow after my huge Ys Phase(a few months before Ys 9 came out, i played all the games) i lost my interest into the series. It will be a very good game for sure, but like Trails, im over it. But Eiyuden Chronicle is smth im looking forward to the most. And it gets released on my birthday. What are the odds :D

Ignoring the obvious titan this year in FF7 Rebirth, Granblue Relink is phenomenal. Unicorn overlord blew me away in the demo. Can't wait for kuro no kiseki and Ys X to get back into Falcom games

Curious. You stated Mario was "arguably the most recognizable character in gaming." Im curious as to if not Mario then who? Minecrafts Steve comes to mind but anyone over a certain age would have no clue who he is and the youths would absolutely still know who Mario is. Struggling to think of who a reasonable challenger would be. Pikachu maybe?
