Dayle Grixti of Dark Gaia Studios writes in to announce the release of Heroes of Legionwood, a jRPG with wRPG elements (or as he describes it, “like someone took the best parts of Final Fantasy and merged them into Baldur’s Gate“). The narrative premise: It has been 100 years since the world ended. Human civilization […]

Okay! We’re several months late with this one, but we’ll chalk this one up as a “New to Me.” Word reaches me that there’s now finally a follow-up to 2012’s anti-hero-focused jRPG Chronicles of a Dark Lord Episode I. Developed by Kisareth Studios, Chronicles of a Dark Lord: Episode II War of The Abyss is […]

The ever-prolific Aldorlea Games writes in to announce the release of Elendia Ceus, a new jRPG they’ve developed. The premise: What lies beneath the skies? This is a question nobody in the cloud world of Elendia wants answered – nobody but one man, LaCaster, who lost his wife as she passed to the other side. […]

There’s a new jRPG in town courtesy of John Wizard Games. The name? Madam Extravaganza’s Monster Emporium! The premise is a little vague, but it’s all we’ve got, so here it is: Located in Monsterville, the town in the woods… Do you ever wish you had more? That you could leave it all behind and […]

It has been a few months since I went trawling around RPG Maker game affiliate sites looking for new jRPGs, and when I did so today, I was not disappointed.

Billed as “an epic adventure in reverse,” Deja Vu Chronicles is a short jRPG (approximately one hour in length), created in RPG Maker by a small team under the name “NebelSoft.” The narrative premise: The four adventurous heroines Miruka, Hanako, Edelweiss and Aquamarin came a long way. They fought their way up to lv 99 […]

Word reaches me that there’s a new RPG Maker jRPG on the scene. It’s called Wind Child Black, and it appears to be something of a collaboration between Warfare Studios (the prolific developer behind Jade’s Journey, Opaline and Vengeance Road) and Amaranth Games (the even more prolific developer behind Ahriman’s Prophecy and the Aveyond series). The […]

It has just come to my attention that ever-prolific jRPG developer Aldorlea Games has released a new title by the name of Undefeated. The premise: Can you stop the Wastelands from spreading and overtaking the world? Play as Marcus, Bastien and Fela, three army conscripts with little liking for what is supposed to be their […]

A bit of digging around reveals to me the existence of a relatively new jRPG called Riders of Arylide. Created by Phantasos Games, Riders of Arylide was made in RPG Maker. The premise: When their guardian sets sail for the Red Mountains and never returns, Allegra and Thaddeus are forced to travel across the lands […]

Right on the heels of Hunters Grimm (previously covered here) comes Onyx, a jRPG collaboration between Aldorlea Games and Valkyria Games. (How is Valkyria games putting out this much stuff in such a short period? Beats me! Maybe they just contributed assets while they worked on Hunters Grimm?) Regardless, here’s the premise of Onyx: Play […]
