This one caught my eye. Basically a spiritual successor to Punch-Out/Super Punch-Out. Fairly cheap too, and I'm surprised it isn't on GP.

This little beauty dropped last week, and if you're a wrestling fan, you really need to check it out! There are many wrestler cameos from the 80s, 90s, and 2000s. The gameplay is a classic RPG style closer to that of super Mario RPG from the SNES. As you attack, you can time button presses to do more damage or negate it on the defensive side. It's been great so far, holding me over until Sea of Stars drops. Only $30 too. It's on everything.

I'm looking forward to this one. It's by the developers of The Messenger (I LOVE THAT GAME) so, I can guarantee, it will be a quality experience.

This one releases next week on all platforms and man, does this look friggin good. It's a metroidvania with a beautiful hand-drawn art style and it really looks like it flows fairly well. I can't wait to check this one out.

I just picked this one up Thursday, and I've been enjoying it so far. It's giving me a Metroid vibe for sure. The level up system is somewhat similar to Dark Souls and when you die, you lose your currency at the spot of death. I'll dig more into this one over the weekend.

This one initially released back in 2018 and I didn't really get into it until now on PS5. It's a beautiful hand drawn 2D, action/adventure platformer/metroidvania, where you're able to change forms as you discover them to help solve environmental puzzles and combat the various enemies you encounter. I've unlocked 3 forms so far, and each one varies from the other. Pig form allows you to sniff the air and find hidden switches or chests, as well as use various magical abilities. The snake form allows you to stick to mossy walls, spit venom that really wrecks enemies and eventually a dash bash that destroys small rocks blocking your progress. The frog form is basically a warrior with a hook shot/Grappling hook tongue that helps with platforming and reaching those high up areas. I'm about half way through and it's been a decent ride so far. Definetly worth a look if you're into this genre of games.

A friend of mine recommended this one to me and I've been really having a blast with it so far. It has a very retro, Simons Quest vibe to with lots of gore and good/evil choices throughout the game. I'm gonna dig into this more over the weekend but so far, so good.

I had the chance to try this out during the Steam Next Fest and I'll definetly pick it up once it releases. Reminds me a lot of Blasphemous, also a 2D metroidvania that released sometime last year. It has a very gothic/Castlevania type look to it and the gameplay is fairly tight. I can already tell I'll be dropping some F-Bombs while playing this one.

This one has just released on July 22nd for the Switch and it's giving me some old school, classic SNES ROG vibes. This is a remake/rerelease of a title that never made it's debut over here. If anyone grabs it, please let us know what you think about the game. I'm very curious about it.

This releases tomorrow!!!!! 6 player co-op!! ONLINE!!! And, It's getting some great reviews! This should be a fun one with some FGers!

This looks like a game right up my alley. Visually, It looks very similar to Blasphemous (Released last year) and gameplay is akin to the typical metroidvania/souls-like trend as of late. Release date is listed as 2022 so here's hoping sometime soon. For me at least.

This one has been out for some time on all platforms. I find it very similar to the classic NES Ninja Gaiden games, including the difficulty, and I've been kind of on and off with it for a bit. It definetly has those frustrating WTF moments but the gameplay is pretty solid and the boss battles are challenging. If you're into this style of game, check it out.

I'm just gonna drop a nice, little, friendly reminder to you all that The Messenger is a great game if you fancy the old school 8/16 bit style graphics and gameplay of Ninja Gaiden. Great music, great gameplay, very witty and enjoyable writing and just a blast to play. I just platinumed this one the other day! It's worth a look, Friends. Available on PC and all platforms.

I recently picked this up on my switch and fell in love with this game. It's a 2D metroidvania style action adventure kinda reminiscent of symphony of the night. You play as a little priestess named Lily and all your attacks and abilities are done through spirits you've purified during the game. There's hand to hand, swords, clubs etc, as well as magic ranged attacks. You also get permanent abilities like swimming underwater, double jump and such through the same spirits you acquire. Graphics are beautiful hand drawn sprites that move quite nicely. The gameplay is really spot on. There's some points where you'll be stuck in an animation and unable to dodge, but those are avoidable IMO. The music and sound is incredible as well. This is my kind of game so I may come off as a bit bias but if you're a fan of this style of game, you should dig it as well.

I’ve been playing the hell out of this recently. It’s a very gory, 2d metroidvania/souls style game that has a very cool art style. The game plays really well and the story has been interesting.
