If you were a fan of the original game, or just like JRPGs in general, then NEO: The World Ends With You is a fascinating title with fantastic visual style and real remixed songs and music. This could be the action RPG of the year in what is already a crowded field.

This week our Save State Columnist gets pulled into quite a trial, or actually a series of them with The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles. He gets so into it that he needs to take a break by heading into space with the classic Nintendo DS Game Meteos. It’s been a strange time, but the games are great!
If you enjoy action games with strong RPG elements and a sci-fi fantasy story, Scarlet Nexus could be right up your alley. It’s got great anime aesthetics and storytelling, and some really solid action elements too.

Our intrepid Save State columnist plays two very different games this week. First he lets out his inner beast in a Pokemon Unite battle royale. Then he indulges his sensitive side with a little poetry reading with the girls from the Doki Doki Literature Club.
