This year has been an absolutely unbelievable one for gaming. Just a few highlights include Donkey Kong’s long-awaited return to 3D, a Hollow Knight sequel that lived up to the hype, and a very French take on the Japanese role-playing game.
Speaking of JRPGs, there have been a whole lot of awesome titles released throughout 2025 – especially if we’re talking about remakes. I’ve personally reviewed and played through many of these, and now I’m here to share my undisputed favorites of the year. I’ve included everything from traditional turn-based entries to action-based adventures, with heavy hitters from the likes of Square Enix and Nihon Falcom.
