NEW 18 Amazing Upcoming Action 2D METROIDVANIA Games 2024 & 2025 | PS5, XSX, PS4, XB1, PC, Switch

[@magicalspell3399]

No matter how many 3d game out there still the 2d games are more challenging ❤❤

[@RockPocketGames]

Thank you for your kind words on our passion project Somber Echoes.

[@TurnerTurnip]

Looks like the best game in this video.

[@pavlotverdokhlib7627]

lol, Biomorph has been out for over a month now. It's quite good. Dragon is Dead looks like Death's Gambit and The last Faith had a baby. But having "rogue--______" in the genre description kills most of my interest instantly, I don't have the time to keep trying RNG-driven games like this. The demo for Ventures of the Vile didn't really vibe with me. Nine Sols is an instabuy. Especially if you enjoyed Sekiro's combat.

[@ramrodbldm9876]

Kid no one asked you

[@msurez38]

Nine Sols for sure

[@RuairiOTuathail]

Playing it now. It's awesome.

[@msurez38]

I'm PS5 so I have to wait​@@RuairiOTuathail

[@philiparens3542]

Where do u buy it? Ive been searching the web and cant find a copy anywhere​@RuairiOTuathail

[@highlife1388]

new generation of 2d games are so amazing

[@d00mnoodle24]

Actually amazing list, all these titles look amazing!

[@JoshTrue-xt9bf]

I think mariachi legends will be so fantastic. Im waiting only for it on your list

[@TheOneAndOnlySame]

Same bro! I LOVE mexican aesthetics and the idiosyncratism in between christianity and mezzo american mythos! And the music ! Heh... rubs hands in Mehicano

[@redsoxfox]

Moon Samurai looks nice, reminds me of flashback meets Sifu. Trizna looks nice too.

[@pri5044]

hey @mob-xgame, love the video, thanks for highlighting these games! just a heads up on what's listed as Embermane, i think the title is actually "Emberbane"

[@vitalykrasikov3548]

+1 on this

[@RuairiOTuathail]

thanks. couldn't find it on Steam initially

[@ramrodbldm9876]

​@@vitalykrasikov3548 -1 on this

[@cjayno1]

My BIG problem with the Blasphemous clones is, there´s no creative thing they make it on their own. Sprite style the same, animation the same, cutscenes the same jada jada jada. i have nothing straight against clones from games is there´s is in a good own style. But these look like fckg copy ripped from blasphemous for real if u know what i mean.

[@blackkaiser6731]

I disagree, these games are not a Blasphemous copy.

[@victorgustavo4366]

Blasphemous take a lot of classical elements from type "metrovania" games. So, the other games take this inspiration (graphics, physics, combat style) from this classical games as well. Otherwise, really, most of these games don't do big inovations into the ower games. But make games like as big companys (Konami, Capcom, Nintendo, Ubsoft etc) is so hard. These game of video are been done by small companys, for example., with few money and few people working inside it.

[@N3roFreak]

Moon samurai looks dope.

[@amareshorts9590]

I actually loved your list, best one I've seen so far

[@mob-xgame]

Thanks bro

[@CozyCoffeeLofi]

These look fantastic! Dragon is dead looks the most promising! ❤

[@rodneyabrett]

These ALL look amazing

[@samahell9488]

I'm so exited too ! That game's , alla of them seem to be very good and fun !

[@OmegaSaiyan92]

they're called MetroidVania's, but i'm seeing a lot more Vania than Metroid

[@bryanortega8148]

same with rpg (role playing games) which nowadays people relate them with powering level and looting, it is what it is

[@vampireblades]

okay?

[@Maxtroroux]

Because metroid invented the genre. And Castlevania improved the formula.

[@dustinjohnson7252]

The Metroid comes from the map really. They always use the more dark midevilish games graphics.

[@demetriobraga777]

thank you so much for putting my game among such amazing titles!

[@ItsameAlex]

what's your game

[@ryanc.l.1982]

Looking forward to some of these. Thanks for bringing Voidwrought to my attention, looks great

[@LasherDevianceGaming]

Biomorph is already out. I was playing it last night.

[@MyBrothersKeeper101]

Probably why it suggest games of 2024 and 2025

[@alastaircenter9596]

Really fun game

[@endrgar]

And this game was incredibly disappointing.

[@lillpoetboy]

@@endrgar was it that bad? im enjoyingit....

[@endrgar]

​@@lillpoetboy Not really bad, but unfortunately not good enough for me personally. An interesting mechanic with transformations, but it is poorly implemented. Acquiring new abilities is done in a boring way. The locations are monotonous,The level design is also monotonous, square and rectangular literally in visual terms.

[@Seansquatch7]

Moon Samurai looks AMAZING. I haven’t played my MVs lately, but this one really reminds me of Narita Boy. Loved that game

[@ItsameAlex]

it looks like anno mutateonum

[@Angiolina-c9u]

Amazing list! I'm really impressed by how many great games are on the way

[@alastaircenter9596]

It really is an amazing time to be a metroidvania gamer. With so many up coming games and ones that have been released. I'd say this is the golden age

[@mobilemetal4554]

It definitely is. I just really need to get a pc.

[@ramrodbldm9876]

​@@mobilemetal4554 quit being a brokeboy then

[@hulaguhan7702]

Emberbane looks amazing

[@jasonleveck8546]

Lot of really cool looking content. I'd love it if one of these studios would approach Konami and do a worthy Castlevania game! That would be so cool. Have the great music and ambiance of Super Castlevania, while perhaps updating some of the aspects of past games that made them great, for this era. Keep the soul of what makes Castlevania one of the greatest franchises ever, while giving it a bit of updating.

[@Garthantula]

I’m stoked that gestalt is finally getting released. I hope it lives up to the hype.

[@derek-64]

Gestalt looks good and i'd like to have it on Switch, however, i would prefer a physical release.

[@Xtafa]

Voidwrought looks like what ive been craving

[@StrikerEureka85]

i'm so glad i made a pledge for mariachi legends. it's looking amazing and can't wait to play it.

[@puupuuxcii]

great list!

[@infamoswordz]

Why do I watch this channel that only talks about things that we can't have yet?

[@harisiregar232]

All of them looks amazing wtf? Gonna save this vid for future references

[@TurnerTurnip]

Somber Echoes and Biowolf added to wishlist.

[@Thedesertguy75]

Some o these look awesome. GESTALT for sure, Altered Alma....I just love metroid Vania games.....

[@nachtgoblin]

oh jeez, thats alot of time I need to invest this year

[@Elbereth95]

Just pretty much 100 percented nine sols. Made me feel like I was playing sekiro again with how you never really skate by on any boss. You either get your ass kicked or beat them without getting hit at all. 10/10

[@aic8326]

The ones for playstation.... how come NONE of them show up in the playstation store?

[@MrHappy702]

Imagine when AI will be able to make these type games.

[@notnoaintno5134]

A lot of blasphemous likes on here

[@dipster5307]

Love me some blasvania

[@gb9884]

Good

[@joaorafaeloliveira1781]

And I'm loving it.

[@blsphmsblack91]

They created a new standard. Hopefully these games flesh out their own identity

[@btchiaintkidding7837]

2d sidescroller? = Hollow Knight clone boo Pixel Art ? = Blasphemous omg You guys are cooked

[@ahmadraza2156]

Dragon is Dead and Eden's guardian look really good, wishlested these. Also, "Embermane" is spelled wrong, its "Emberbane"

[@mkjazz3418]

first time seeing altered alma, and its looks really cool

[@azure5584]

Dud you really need to move that overlay text (game title, release date, platforms) UP, because it clashes with the timeline segments; when you want to mouse-over a segment and see the game's name, the text appears in white and clashes with the text in your footage. Change your font (make it smaller) and move the whole thing up like a good 100pixels (measuring on a un-fullscreened youtube video in 2560x1440p. Keep it in the bottom-left corner, just please make not so annoyingly obtrusive. As someone who's just stumbled upon your channel for the first time, I've found this very off-putting, so take it as just feedback from a newcomer.

[@bulletbeast6827]

why isnt anyone mentioning chronicles of the wolf?

[@KiekoKoyasu]

@11:26 The dominatrix throwing her slave ❤😂

[@ruanbelmont231]

excelente

[@azuarc]

Oh wow, how is this the first I'm hearing of Dragon is Dead? Legend of Elementia and Lightwood also look interesting. Embermane demo disappointed, so I'm gonna wait to hear good reviews at release.

[@AhmetBabagil.]

hi , i am the creator of legends of elementia , this trailer is really old , now the game is much much improved.

[@sergiohidalgo6391]

So nice!!!! 👍❤️

[@MongoGamer]

people have been saying it for a few years now "its the year of the metroidvania" but now i think if they say it i will finally believe them

[@Patrick-ss3hb]

Remember: it's a metroidvania WHEN THERE ARE NO DEATHS BY FALLING! Holy shit. Why don't people ever look at that? If you die by falling, it's a mega man game.

[@kaphasibad8369]

Man all these are PC exclusive I'm missing out haven't made the jump from consoles to pC my Elder & Youngest have been pushing for me to crossover especially with the free online nevertheless I'm on PS5 & SWITCH ,nevertheless the game "VISAGENS" reminds me of the Arcade Classic by Namco "ROLLING THUNDER" on Steroids....

[@Shamshiro]

The Penitent One from Blasphemous wouldn't look out of place in some of the games featured here lol

[@phantomthiefjoker939]

17:53 That game I am so gonna get!!!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@RibbonPL]

That's not how you pronounce "mariachi", lol.

[@SuperBulletguy]

>upcoming metroidvania games >starts the video with a roguelike

[@laplasVolt]

Когда нибудь я дождусь новой игры на уровне Ori😢

[@alexalias5911]

Surely silk song will come out next year right :)

[@Blackshroom]

Moon Samaurai seems more like classic Prince of Persia to me, looks cool though. Hoping all these games release on Switch/2

[@Zonajf]

buen video brothers

[@kyschoo3075]

I was expecting a beautiful game like AfterImage. I won't hide the fact that in 2024 I really have a hard time with games with retro graphics... Somber Echoes looks good though, I'm waiting to see the game length, if it's not at least 25 hours I'll pass ...

[@Bread_n_Butter.]

Gestalt was pushed back... again. It releases in July now.

[@JuanManuelDominguezSantana]

1:35 Eden's Guardian

[@華生-t6r]

好幾個遊戲看起來很不錯

[@rodrigoevangelista5494]

Visagens from Brazil is single and fantastic.....

[@zrglow4450]

Only nine souls looks interesting enough to play

[@antoniusdaivap7759]

edens guardian looks cool

[@Smabverse]

I can't believe you didn't put Bō: Path of the Teal Lotus on the list 😩

[@scottevensen2615]

A couple Hollow Knight types, perhaps enough to fill the gap before Silksong? (should it ever come out) 🤔

[@Brando-1-2-3]

Gotta have these for switch 2!!

[@AhmetBabagil.]

My trailer looks like really old , i am updating it asap. The game is much much better now

[@yami7017]

2d pixel sprites sidescroll hack and slash or rpg action slash is my type of game

[@post-man23]

I appreciate the nostalgic charm of 8-bit artstyle games, but I feel like we've reached a point where there are too many of them flooding the scene. It's time for games to be more polished, like Hollow Knight, Nine Sols, etc. instead of giving low quality crappy detail imagery.

[@damageinc.5458]

I hope that Dragon is Dead game comes out on XBOX. It looks like Last Faith/Blasphemous.

[@PeterMasalski93]

How many Blasphemous clones do you want? Me: I want it all! I want it all! And I want it now!

[@dhimascpw5195]

If i can only choose one im gonna go with thrizna. But also love all the on this list ❤

[@A_Stereotypical_Heretic]

Not every single game where a character has a sword is "souls like"...

[@jojolafrite90]

The only one I'm excited about is silksong.

[@MountainLWolf]

They all appear to be siblings In their graphical style.

[@kukukachu]

...uhh, that's Emberbane, not Embermane...

[@balancedgaming2103]

Thank you! I was so confused typing in Embermane xD

[@ivandelgado6180]

its Emberbane, not Embermane

[@couchbrogames7499]

so cool

[@lovelife1867]

Moon samurai seems like someone took scandroid design and implemented into the game character.

[@ninjazorro]

Gestalt Steam and cinder ,altered Alma, mariachi legends and biomorph looks interesting imho.

[@meaculpamuscamuerte674]

Dragon is dead Eden's guardian Voidwrought Top 3 for sure.

[@lightsoulja]

I wanna see that "Mariachi Legends" game.

[@ashwin.unlead]

the second one reminds me of last faith

[@AetheriusComics]

For me, all of these games feel like different parts of the same game. There's some cool things here, but since I've already enjoyed Castlevania: SOTN, I don't feel like these are unique enough for me to get invested it. But I can see these other games are great for people who have never experienced SOTN. Or people who have but they enjoy the clones.

[@N_Tertainment7]

as someone who has played SOTN, Nine sols was a much superior experience.

[@AetheriusComics]

@@N_Tertainment7 I just checked out a video on Nine sols. It looks pretty cool. And he main character looks adorable. I may buy this. Thanks.

[@mrdoth6376]

Dark Sword: The Light of Ainn, is missing

[@dextro808]

just don't make them soulslike, for the love of christ

[@kurokaze85]

Most of em looks like Blasphemous to me which I like !

[@ItsAWonderfulKnife]

"Now rise, my Embermane!" 😂😂😂

[@MartinFranchini-u2w]

I was sure nine sols wasn't planned on xbox. Did the developers change something?

[@mattfiorello1885]

Hi Mob X Game I Hope Those Pc Horror Games Gets A Physical Release For Ps4 And Ps5 In The Future

[@adden2242]

Dragon is dead looks awesome!! only pc?? awe crap!! I never play on a pc..Switch please!!

[@mathiasrain1480]

Yea unfortunately 9 Sol's didn't come to consoles on the date 😔 I wish it had and hopefully it does cuz not all of us are PC players unfortunately

[@Gtrip420]

I love clean fluid HD hand drawn sprites and animation I just wish they would make the sprites larger and more detailed something akin to the guilty gear or dragon Ball fighterz but in an RPG or metroidvania style. I love the 90s arcade revolution era Final fight Street fighter Mortal Kombat etc Big detailed beautiful sprites and quick gameplay Play the anime Ultraviolence super gory fantastic story beautifully executed. Take the art form to another level. When they back up so far and make the characters so tiny it takes away from the experience in my opinion. Would love to see it applied to a new Chrono trigger type RPG too. Hand drawn animation is king 👑 It doesn't age. Looks as beautiful as the day it was drawn years down the line. Im not liking the draw it once then articulate it like a puppet style either. Lazy

[@jomak2872]

Glad to see a hand full of games with nice graphics. I'm really bored of the low res shitty "pixel art" style.

[@Winterbells0]

可以買了~

[@justdev8965]

Question: how do you know they're amazing, when they haven't even come out yet? Footnote: you know, as every other post 2020 game, these are alll going to be plagued with countless bugs, and you're going to suffer with stick drift on your 7th controller that you bought this year

[@UltraGeezer]

I believe Nine Sols is only releasing on PC this month. Switch is later.

[@Davidreyes-lf5zq]

good
