All I can say is thank you all for being patient. I finally got my system back today, hopefully for the last time. I plan to get 1 more video out before I leave for Christmas, and in that I want to give you guys the full rundown of everything that's happened in the past 4 months or so, as I feel I owe an explanation at the very least. Anyway due to the lack of time that I have left, there won't be a news summary for November or December (sorry Ys X). But I went with the next best thing, I'm hoping that this will give you guys a fairly succinct summary of the English RPG releases that are coming out (at least for now).
That's perfectly fine. I may have been waiting for those videos, but the more important thing is that you are doing well enough to do videos at all. But damn, there are so many great RPGs releasing next year. It's insane! And next year is also a really great year for Anime as well. 2023 is turning out to be insanely great for both JRPGs and Anime. I will spend the weekend playing Cold Steel so I can finally start playing Cold Steel 2 sometime next year. I already played Zero and Azure via the Geofront patch but I will sure as hell buy it again! But damn, some amazing games are coming out and my favorite anime has it's second season airing too. And of course Ys X. Us JRPg and anime fans are eating good next year. See you soon and merry christmas.
I’m very excited for Sea of Stars. What that company did with the messenger was so much fun. Not even a big fan of the genre, yet that game an indie was my GOTY
Welcome back mate! 2023 is going to be crazy. Trails, Like a Dragon, Final Fantasy, Suikoden Remasters, Eiyuden Chronicle, Stellar Blade, maybe finally Sea of Stars and Granblue... Just to name my big ones. How am I supposed to find time for all of these games and my backlog is already huge. :O
HA-HA! HE'S BACK! Hope the computer is fixed (Permanently!!!). Man it's good to have you back. You're the best source on the internet for my JRPG news. Just finished ToCS4 (Laughed, cried, etc) and I'm on DQ11S now! Thanks for letting me know what's going to lighten my wallet this coming year!!! Again, good to have you back.
So much to look forward to between now and next year. Top picks for me are Trails, Ryza, Neptunia, Fairy Fencer, Suikoden. Also excited for FF pixel remasters finally coming to console and the news of YS X and Felghana which I hope comes to the west and opens the door to release all the previous Ys games for modern consoles.
Welcome back homie - hope your rig is good to go. Didn't throw as many on the list from this video but definitely a good few. (Sadface no Ys release TBD for 2023)
I am looking forward to One Piece Odyssey, Trails into Reverie, Stellar Blade, FFXVI, FF7 Rebirth, Nayuta Boundless Trails, and the Suikoden remasters. Next year is packed with JRPGs. Still trying to finish Star Ocean Divine Force. I'll finish it next week. Thanks for all you do in delivering JRPG news.
Man that sucks to hear and I think we can all be glad your on the up! Where there is sunshine must come the rain and storm so I'm glad you managed to pull through it. Look forward to 2023!
one of the most highly anticipated RPG game for decades is releasing next year and it isn't even listed, y'know this little D&D game called "baldur's gate 3?" or never heard of it?
I'm really looking forward mostly for Fire Emblem Engage, Fairy Fencer F and Granblue Fantasy Relink from the list, but also Baldur's Gate 3 and Redemption Reapers.
Man, there's lots to look forward to! I'm excited to see lots of turn based games coming out too. Really looking forward to Fire Emblem and Fairy Fencer.
Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty also comes out in couple of months. PC,Xbox. PS4, PS5 and shows up on gamepass day 1 so for me the gamepass already paid itself back for the coming year.
I had no idea Grim Grimoire had something coming out for it this year, thank you for sharing. Looking forward to ff7: Rebirth, Suikoiden 1 and 2 remastered, Eiyuden Chronicles, and Sea of Stars myself.
There is a lot to look forward to that has been announced in the upcoming year, though I am still holding onto some small hope that Atlus will bring Shin Megami Tensei IV to modern consoles as part of the SMT 35th anniversary.
Year 2023 is looking great for RPG lovers.. Hopefully everything is as scheduled, and those without release date yet can be released ASAP. I have a feeling Suikoden Remaster gonna have similar release date to Eiyuden..
I probably will pick Persona 4 Golden, Trails into Reverie and Fire Emblem Engage (I even pre-ordered the standard version of Fire Emblem Engage). I had lots of game to play, but that's the price I had to play for buying Nintendo Switch.
Thank you for the video! I'm surprised that there are so many games to look forward to! I think I'm most excited for Blue Protcol and Atelier Ryza 3! The Like a Dragon games are also looking pretty good as well.
Yeah, there are some pretty cool looking RPGs from other Asian countries on the way! I didn't include them here (since you know, JRPG mostly), but I've kept an eye on a couple.
Man, I really need to get cracking on Trails. I'm at the beginning of Azure, and then I have the entirety of Cold Steel to play before Reverie comes out.
Damn man nice to see you back and thanks for the list, alot to look forward to. I already played Azure with the Geofront Patch but it would be nice to give the game another go with the official localization and then the real hype for me Reverie. Persona 3, heck yea, really wanna play as the FeMC, also i thought Persona 4 Golden was already released on PC, whats the difference with this? Same with Agarest War. Honestly Grand Blue Fantasy was delayed alot, hope the wait is worth it, its a pity all FF titles coming out are only for the PS but i dont mind the wait if it means SQ can have the time to properly optimize it for the PC. There are 2 games i wish for a remake or remaster, Breath of Fire 1-4 and Legend of Dragoon.
Indeed Golden is already on PC - I think it's the same version as the one being ported to consoles. Agarest is also on PC, not sure how the Switch version will be changed though.
I rewatched this on thursday to make a list with all the RPGs I'm buying next year. With some of them habving to wait, because I can't even make the time to play what I already have. But at least I have a list now. Just need to wait for the dates. So many great RPGs coming out next year. And lots of great Anime too. 2023 seems to be a great year for RPG and Anime fans. I'm also really excited for the Cold Steel Anime. You should totally watch that one. It seems to fill the gap between CS 2 and CS 3. I'll be binging after playing Cold Steel 2.
Looks like 2023 is gonna be another banger in the world of RPGs. Switch seems to be the standard bearer for RPGs now, but it is nice to see Xbox making a decent showing, too
Welcome back, there are just too many game to play next year, both JRPG and non-JRPG. It is unlikely most of the JRPG on the list i will buy right away, but these will be top of the list, no matter what, Ryza 3, trail into reverie and maybe FF16, if i get PS5 next year. I am planning to buy some game on Christmas sale, like FF7 remake, Ys9 (last YS to play) and atelier sophie (if it go on sale), plus I bought 13 sentinels (switch version) on black Friday deal to play through. The game I am most looking forward is non-JRPG Legend of zelda: tear of the kingdom, so hype for it!
Since Trails into reverie and Trails of azure are released to the west next year i hope Kuro will follow the year after. I 'm still puzzled Kuro 2 is realesed in Japan before Kuro 1 in the west.
We are seriously lagging behind in the west. It's 3 games already at this very moment (4 if you also count Azure). Sure those Crossbell has been done also, and that would also take resources and time, but they had the advantage that these games already had a relatively decent translation by those Geofront guy's. That must have shortened the development time at least a little. Anyway - I really do not hope that Kuro will take another several years to come to the west. let's hope those game will both be released end 2023, or somewhere in 2024.
Lots of games on here I'm really looking forward to, at the top would probably be Like a Dragon: Ishin, been waiting for it to come west since I saw the Japanese version. It's also a remake of the original game, not a remaster. FFXVI is looking incredible, can't wait to play it. Lots of love for Trails fans in 2023 as well. So happy seeing Front Mission come back, it's my favorite SRPG series. Where is Forspoken on this list? It's an RPG too. While I don't believe Stellar Blade is an RPG, it's an action game with more in common with DMC or Bayonetta.
So, regarding Trails of Reverie , its the final game I think but are the games that you need to play also available on ps4/5? I don't really know how Sony does it with ps4 and ps5 games, since I will get my end of january. Can I still play PS4 games on my PS5? Since I got a lot of those niche games on ps4 and would like to pick them up on ps5 again. And do I need any prior games to play Of Azure?
Man, quite a few games I'm looking forward to here: Persona 4 Golden, can't to play this gem again, on an actual console with a big ass TV this time. Like A Dragon Isshin, a Yakuza franchise game, nuff said. FF16, HELL YEAH. Trails Into Reverie, about time it got an english release. (Now to wait for an english release for Kuro No Keseki) FF7 Rebirth, HELL FUCKING YEAH. Granblue Fantasy, Been waiting for this ever since I saw that gameplay video last year, lets hope it actually comes out 2023 Yep, 2023 looking to be a real good year.
Damn after saying so often p4, ps5 etc. u sure gotta have it said enough for a while no XD? First off ty for the nice infos and so far im looking forward to the 2 trails games, Ryza 3 (sad to see Ryza on her last adventure but it was great
There is no universe in which Square-Enix can release BOTH FF16 and FF7 Rebirth in the same year... one or both will be pushed back to 2024. I'd bet any amount of money on that
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.... Where's Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster ? In case you're forgotten, it's part of the JRPG genre. So.... Where is it: Where is Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster ?
2:24 Again, if you've not played Tales of Symphonia, you have no excuse. The title is a sine qua non in the annals of the JRPG genre and an overall demarcation of the line between entertainment and art for gaming as a whole.
Ridiculous that we have to wait for Reverie for so long and the west is behind like I dunno half a dozen games by now for Kesiki. Hopefully this state of affairs will improve in the future.
@@drowningin I was hyperbolic but we haven't had anything confirmed about Calvard coming to the west so who knows how many games we're gonna be behind. Especially for the pc steam peasants. Might be 3-4 games or more. Or 6. Plz help Falcom...
@mushy85 since Azure still has not released yet I'm counting it. Azure, Hajimari, Nyuta, Kuro 1, Kuro 2. At least we will be up to the Kuro arc in 2024 assuming that none of the 3 prior games gets delayed.
