The ULTIMATE Upcoming Metroidvania List

[@glowinggladestudio5470]

Thank you for featuring us :) We are happy to tell you that Nara is currently going through a major visual and gameplay update. Be prepared to see insane improvements in the next trailer and demo :) We are 2 brothers and 2 sisters btw.

[@V_y-r_e]

I’m very very intrigued by the visual effects in your game! Really wanna learn more about vfx and I’m curious how y’all learned about them.

[@glowinggladestudio5470]

@@V_y-r_e All in 1 vfx toolkit and Sprite Shaders Ultimate are some of the unity assets we used to make the vfx. They are very easy to use and have infinite potential:)

[@V_y-r_e]

I meant to reply to this sooner but forgot to. Thanks so much for answering!, I’ll look into both of these things. What got y’all into gamedev?

Welcome!

nara is awesome, i supported it on kickstarter! i believe in your work, will be happy to see more

[@PigDaddy2020]

I love to see so many indie developers posting comments to show this channel some appreciation! This has been my go to indie game channel for several years now, since back in the Clemmy Games days. Hardest working indie-informer in the business, bar none. Here's wishing you continued sucess for many years to come! Also: So many great games here I can't wait for! Rune Fencer, Sister's Journey, Savior, HF Alicia, Sandfox, Crowsworn, Silksong, + too many more to name! Awesome list!

[@MertAliBarlas]

Thanks for adding Ceplion to the list! It's great that you support us, indie developers, with your videos.

We're so happy you included Astra: Fading Stars in this list ^ ^ You and the community have been amazing and the feedback we got from everyone super valuable, thanks!!!! We'll do our best to make the metroidvania experience as great as possible!

[@ClemmyGames]

Cheers!

[@squidshockstudios1486]

Thank you for including Bo! I can't wait to show everyone how much the game has improved since that alpha trailer. Hopefully will be releasing a new trailer early next yaer with a sick new cinematic animated intro! Thank you for everything you do for the indie game community Clemmy. I can tell you put SO MUCH work into these videos.

[@RockyVegaTV]

Out of everything on this list, there's only two games I didn't already have wishlisted (one cause I'm not interested and the other cause I didn't know about it until this video). We have so many Metroidvanias to look forward to that it's insane. Incredible list as always, Clemmy.

[@ClemmyGames]

Cheers Rocky!

[@dirtmike6258]

i enjoy playing metroidvania games ... but surprise to see so many new ones coming out this year, the genre has really grown and they keep looking and playing better

[@ClemmyGames]

Yeah!

[@ipMan559]

Great list of games, I've added many of these to my Steam Wishlist... Can't wait to play them thank you. Subbed and liked 🙌

[@MrJusmessin]

Clemmy, being part of the kickstarter for Crowsworn, they said they'll most likely release the game in 2024, due to more content and more polish required. "Release date to be later than anticipated".

[@ClemmyGames]

Thanks for the heads up! Good things come to those who wait

[@eduardogaxiola3907]

Savior, Gestalt, Last Faith, Hollow Knight 2. So many amazing games to come that I’ve been waiting for literally for years. It’s sad that this genre is now known for getting delayed releases. Amazing video, dude, heavy on the ads side, but really good list here, even with updates for each entry.

[@reyalfa18]

Not so sure about Savior, as an animator i noticed something iffy in it's trailer and now that i went to check the steam page and saw that there aren't more images or footage than the one that was shown, not even in the kickstarter trailer. i'm 99% sure that everything on it was hand animated and wasn't actually coded gameplay.

[@eduardogaxiola3907]

@@reyalfa18 yeah, those parry animations seemed to good to be actual gameplay, and I’m not an animator or anything like that, but there is a gameplay clip already. I believed some people got to play an alpha or beta build

[@dretchlord873]

Great video. Metroidvania is one of my favorite genres so to see 50 upcoming ones is such a treat. Keep up the good work!

[@ClemmyGames]

Thanks, will do! Help share this!

[@azuarc]

Okay, now that I have a chance to watch legit... 50. Elderand - new to me. Looks interesting. 49. Rusted Moss - not a fan of chunky pixel art. Might be okay. 48. Neon Moon - The, well, neon style is striking. Good animations. 47. Kingdom Shell - might be okay? Dunno. 46. AEmbrosia - Nice sprite work. Worth a look. 45. Curse of the Sea Rats - Been looking at this Don Bluth movie for a while. 44. Nara: Facing Fire - Very smooth animation and interesting art. 43. Selini - Setting reminds me of old games like Out of This World 42. Rune Fencer Illyia - Looks like Momodora, which I didn't like. 41. Gold Project - Another game that calls attention to itself by the art. 40. Mira and TLOTJ - Seen this before. Looks promising. 39. Romancelvania - I'm so confused...but it definitely has appeal. 38. Dewdrop Dynasty - Very retro pixel art. 37. A Sister's Journey - Hi Celeste. I can see this taking off. 36. Biomorph - Is it wrong that I tend to judge these by how smooth the animations are? If not, Biomorph is in a very good place. 35. Lotus Knight - Ah, yes, the infamous HK clone. Curious to see what it really is. 34. Astra: Fading Stars - Looks promising. 33. Sak'd - The premise of this one is hilarious. 32. Lucid - That BGM really caught my attention. 31. Moadra - Setting's probably not for me, but it reminds me of Sundered. 30. Shyftrs - Pity the kickstarter failed, but it looks uneven atm. 29. The Crown Stones - Very slow and deliberate movement. 28. Chiaroscuro - I don't see this as a HK rip-off, so much as just using inspirations. 27. Last Vanguard - Brisk action and distinctive art and setting. 26. Glimmer in Mirror - Played the demo a while back. Definitely needed work at the time, but very pretty. 25. Ceplion - A Sister's Journey part 2, but I think this does some interesting things that one doesn't. 24. Awaken: Astral Blade - Very vibrant art and particle effects. 23. Savior - The protag's acrobatic animations are really the star here. 22. Ruby: Wayward Mira - Not so much the protag, but the rest of it reminds me of Iconoclasts. 21. DOOMBLADE - Distinct art and KB&M focus. 20. Heart Forth, Alicia - Looks cute. Just how old is this? 19. Rebel Transmute - Very Axiom Verge. (Or just Metroid.) 18. The Last Case of Benedict Fox - This one just gives me bad adventure game vibes. 17. Akatori - Caught my attention earlier due to the staff-use mechanics. 16. Siege & Sandbox - Not sure how I feel about stealth-focus, but looks decent. 15. Cookie Cutter- I need to see more to decide, because it's either really good or really bad. 14. Turbo Kid - Demo was kinda frustrating IMO. 13. Mandragora - I was surprised to get an ad for this at one point. 12. Vernal Edge - Demo was simultaneously a little disappointed and probably the result of being an early-game demo. 11. Fallen Tear - Don't think I've seen this one. Indivisible comp seems fitting. 10. Exil - Also new. Brief demo too chaotic to evaluate. 9. Being and Becoming - For a second I thought I was looking at a 9 Years of Shadows demo. 8. YES! Been watching this one very carefully for a bit. 7. Afterimage - Very vibrant art (no surprise if it's Chinese) 6. Bo: Path of Teal Lotus - What if the Okami team made a metroidvania? 5. Momodora Moonlit Farewell - No, thanks. Reverie Under Moonlight really turned me off. 4. Nine Sols - Another really smooth game. 3. The Last Faith - Deliberate animations. I never really played CV, so this is not for me. 2. Crowsworn - Very smooth. Damn, 1.25M kickstarter?? 1. Silksong - Is Silksong.

[@ClemmyGames]

Holy crap. Nice list!

[@azuarc]

Oh, uh, 8 is Gestalt. It's not called yes.

[@mariapuuh]

6:49 Exciting to see our game Mira here!!! ❤🎉

[@ClemmyGames]

yooooo!

[@Gloomsoft]

Thank you for mentioning and supporting Moadra :)

[@InMaTeofDeath]

Lets boost this video with comments and make a great thread in the process by each of us choosing 1 metroidvania to recommend that you believe didn't get enough love. My personal favorite in recent years was *Grime* which came out about a month before Metroid Dread so no one was thinking about it after that game came out. It has the soulslike combat and a beautiful/desecrated world also they have a DLC they'll be releasing pretty soon called Colors of Rot I've been holding off playing it again until it's finished.

[@PigDaddy2020]

Gotta show some love for Batbarian: Testament of the Primordials! Interesting puzzle gameplay mixed in with a quirky narrative and a suite of accessibility options make it a stand out title I wish got more love. Also, while not technically a Metroidvania (more like Zelda 2), Phoenotopia: Awakening is also a hidden gem I think deserves more attention. A few rough edges, but the overall quality makes it one of my top 10 indies ever. Very difficult in places, but accessibility options also go a ways towards alleviating this games more frustrating issues as well. Gotta love some games that allow tailoring of various features to better suit individual players needs, IMO!

[@Musicandhugsforever]

I watched this video WAY later than I should have! My most anticipated games from this list are Nara, Nine Sols, Crowsworn, and Silksong, obviously.

[@ClemmyGames]

Thanks for watching!

[@biel_pato0391]

I have never seen a game like Savior and its pixel too tysm i instantly added it to my wishlist

[@ClemmyGames]

Nice

[@felipessca]

Nice job, this list is huge! I'm going to add some of this games in my steam list.

[@ClemmyGames]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@fwrussell]

#41, Gold Project, reminds me a little bit of Sundered how going light or dark alters the abilities you can get which also affected ow you traversed the world

[@ClemmyGames]

Good point

[@APSTP]

Glimmer in Mirror really reminds me of Ender Lilies. I'm looking forward to it!

[@ClemmyGames]

can see it

[@Theo12900]

I was going to list some of my most anticipated games from this list, then I realised it's at least half of the ones shown. I definitely think however there's definitely a clear top tier for me in presentation: crowsworn, ninesols, gestalt, last vanguard, last faith, exil and of course silksong. 2023-2024 will be stacked for metroidvanias.

[@ClemmyGames]

Fingers crossed they come out. 2022 has not been great for MV fans

[@brandonkruse6412]

2023 is going to be a great year for indies 😁 Need them all

[@StewNWT]

50!! Wow Clemmy you are murdering me with this backlog!> Love your channel

[@ClemmyGames]

Cheers! Love these and there are quite a number in development!

[@goldenyak629]

Some good 'uns. Blasphemous 2 was also announced to launch in 2023 - dunno if that's still the plan, but no trailer has been shown for it in any case.

[@ClemmyGames]

Yeah, looking forward to that but didn't have anything to show

[@ZamWeazle]

I'd be surprised if it came out in 2033. Most Metroidvanias that were being made before they announced the sequel aren't necessarily going to be finalised by 2023 yet A much newer game like Blasphemous 2 is going to be out by 2023? Hmmmm

[@turbo8628]

Savior stands out in a big way for me. I hope they have built interesting sections to capitalise on that movement because it looks very fluid and fun.

[@peterc504]

Agreed...We havent heard anything new on the game tho so Im a bit worried...its been forever.

[@black_stark2]

Great list! Some really amazing games there. I was a bit sad after not seeing Bio-Gun on the list though 😢.

[@ClemmyGames]

too many to name all of them!

[@KirbyGotenksabsorbed]

39:31 Castlevania isn't "Bloodborne but 2D". If you want to see what modern 2D Igavanias would look like then look at Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth.

[@cluelesspunk]

1:35 wow! That game it's DMC in 2D O_____o like bro! 🤙

[@ClemmyGames]

[@Raistlin7il7nero]

Content is great. Thx a lot. As an advise put the titles of the games on the top screen. In the bottom covers most of the characters graphic.

[@BrettMorin]

I love how you showed many great games but near the end are like: "Of Course Hollow Knight Silksong is number1" and then don't bother to show much as everyone has been doing that on their own for a longggggg time now. So happy to see all the indie development studios commenting too. Much love to you guys and the work you do! Metroidvania is easily my favorite genre to play.

[@PregnantAdamSandler]

Gotta say, as a guy who grew up on the Castlevania metroids, I kind of wish we had more RPG/Loot focused ones rather than the Hollow knight/platforming and movement focus a lot of these seem to have

This year wasn't good for metroidvania fans, but if half of this list be released in 2023/2024 for me it's fine. The Last Faith #1 my most atecipated game. Also Gestalt, Moadra, Mandragora & Being and Becoming.

[@ClemmyGames]

Agreed. Hope 2023 is THE year

👀 really?

@@ClemmyGames That's what I heard from them.

[@88Opportunist]

Thanks for all the research Clemmy. Gread vid. Personally Rune Fencer Illyia is my #1 but almost all of these titles ended up on my wishlist. A much better list than last year's one even if some titles were repeats from that list.

[@ClemmyGames]

Huh! Rune fencer #1? Interesting. Yeah quite a number of repeats since THEY DIDN'T RELEASE THIS YEAR

[@88Opportunist]

@@ClemmyGames Yeah Rune Fencer is number 1 for me. I don't think it's objectively going to be the best game in the list but I think personally I will have the most fun with it. The dev for it hangs out on the Berserk Boy Discord and keeps showing off little clips for the game all of which just look so fun.

[@ZodiakSL]

This is a hell of a list

[@ClemmyGames]

Thanks!

[@tanzolo4487]

It’s crazy how many games look almost exactly like Hollow Knight. It’s feels like what the triple A bussiness is doing with fromsoft games. Indie devs: make a game because you love your project. Not because you love someone else’s. Doomblade looks really good

[@JBravoEcho09]

Watch Turbo Kid. It's a blast, quite literally lol

[@jatats7743]

Last faith should've been #1 imho. Haha But so could have Gestalt, Awaken, Heartforth Alicia, Akatora, Seige and the Sandfox, Vernal Edge and MANDRAGORA; plus a couple others I might've missed off the list- I'm not a fan of the popular "notebook doodles art style" that is silksong and crowsworn etc.

Hmm, we'll see

[@turbo8628]

I think they have been very selective in what they have shown here and i too have my reservations. However, this was the most intriguing game on the list for me (too many hollow knight rip-offs for me).

[@chrisjags]

Well, there's no way I have the time or energy to play 50 metroidvanias, so I guess I'll narrow my picks down to: Silksong (!!!) Fallen Tear Momodora: Moonlit Farewell Bo Nine Sols Rubi Sak'd (unexpected, but I think it looks great) Definitely not rewarding the biggest copycats on the list with my hard earned $$$ though :P

[@ClemmyGames]

Gotta be selective. No Crowsworn? I think that looks SICK

@@ClemmyGames I may play Crowsworn, I was actually pretty stoked about it when it was first announced. I've just seen a bunch more that I'm more interested in now . But a lot of times it's the ones I least expect to like that become my faves, so who knows which of these 50 will turn out best. It's Chiaroscuro and Lotus Knight that really bother me here though. To me, they set a foot over the line for "homage" and get dangerously close to "rip-off". Hopefully I'm wrong!

Glimmer in the mirror is like "What if we make an Ori like game with Chibi characters". Not that its bad. The music, the art style, the level design seems to be pretty blatant Ori copy to be honest, but I'm not complaining.

2:40 I'm so tired of the over saturation of pixel art indie games atm that at this point I prefer that art style any day.

[@shortbreadhead]

mate there are absolutely shit loads of games in the style you want. There are also really good hand drawn metroidvanias like Afterimage. I enjoy pixel art games too, but they have to look good. The ones that look like someone who never played a NES but thinks that's what a NES game looked like though, yeah those are just a pass from me. Games like blasphemous though? That's quality and attention to detail, there's passion there and I can actually make out what things are meant to be rather than solid colour blocks that are "supposed" to be bushes or some shit
