Thank you for showcasing Gales of Nayeli! We recently added battle animations to really hit that GBA Fire Emblem unit feel! We hope you like the demo, too!!
Card-en-Ciel and Haruka have my attention, and there's just so many upcoming games to look forward to in general. Great list Taylor, love how much you were able to cram within this video!
As always fantastic video man! A lot of these games are on my wishlist already and I can't wait to play them all. It's great to see how many Indie RPGs are coming up and it's awesome that you give them a Spotlight!
Always appreciate these. And how you mention how to support these smaller devs! As an additional note, Inti Creates also made the Megaman Zero/ZX series. Some of my personal favorites.
I been waiting for Anima Song of the Abyss for a while now, it looks so cool! Anima Gate of Memories was criminally underrated especially the Nameless Chronicles Expansion Wish there were as many ps2 era 3d hack n slash inspired indie games as there are all the various pixel games
Short games are good, it´s nice to have something short you know you can get the full experience in a few days to slot in between all these 50+ hour games in my backlog
one cool thing about Lumentale: Memories of Trey is that the developers made a pokemon fangame called "pokemon xenoverse" in the past, which is a pretty good fangame, and apparently Trey (the protagonist?) comes from that game somehow, it's pretty cool
Wow didnt expect maliki poison of the past to appear here ! It's based on a french comic yes (maliki) while being a complete original story made for the game!
The time travel one reminds me of CrisTales where the time travel can be used to weaken enemies and bosses or potentially strengthen them. The art style is interesting and the story doesn't seem to be bad at all, I've only played the demo, but I recommend checking it out
@@UnfairBandicoot Yeah. I know him from a game dev website we're both members of, and I've played some of his games. Venaitura is well worth checking out if you like the old-school retro RPG vibes. I've yet to try out To Aerthen, though I will when I have more time for my backlog. He has some free games released that are pretty fun - Dragon Fantasy, Chronicles of Tsufanubra and Hellion (he helped the dev, kentona, with it). Venaitura is probably my favourite of his so far (though Scarmonde may change that). I enjoyed the characters and world in that one and highly recommend it to anyone who wants a DQ-esque RPG with quality of life features and quirky story. You can have a dog in your party and that's really all that I need say to sell it. XD
Wow, I've never heard of any of these. That's a really nice list, even if not all of them are actually JRPGs. I'll personally keep an eye on that Ni no Kuni lookalike.
Just comes to show how big the indie scene is for rpgs is because i have been exploring around and checking out upcoming games on and off for the past few years and i haven't even heard of half of these. More to the wish list i guess 🤣 Also i would like in Maliki when it was mentioned that you can throw enemies through time that some enemies would pop in out of nowhere because future/past you didn't feel like fighting them at the time.
Every time I see "Lost Hellden" I ugly-cry at the localisation mistake... ("Helden" is German for "hero", with some grammatical shenanigans. Refer to Strauss's "Ein Heldenleben".) That's all assuming that I'm correct, though, but I'm not finding anything outside of swedish politics when I look up "hellden".
@@TheGamingShelf I know, but ps3 ys looks better than these games and octopath traveler is 6 years old on 7 year old hardware and the indie scene can't catch up?
For me I do not have much interest with those upcoming games. One reason is that TOO MANY new games have been released! If I had to pick ONE game from this list, it would be "SerialWorld", and it is a currently good-looking game in my opinion. Other games on this list are just basic and something I have seen before.
"Takes place in 90's earth. Would be interesting to see how that is like." What are you talking about? 90's were like... *Checks calender* 34 years ago... Ugh...
IMO, JRPG is more of a style of game rather than where the game is made. For example, Sea of Stars was made in France but I feel like it's way more of a JRPG than say Dragon's Dogma II, which is more of Western-style RPG made in Japan.
The lines seem to be getting more and more blurred as time goes on. I lean HEAVILY towards jrpgs and have been seeing many jrpgs drifting towards mashing other genres in and/or removing many of the jrpg elements as franchises go on
My biggest gripe with Lost Hellden is the fact that you only see you character in the overworld and not the full party, always a shame when games do this
Which games are you most excited to try? 👀
Colossus- Eternal Blight looks so good! You had me at Ys and Zelda!
Geo Mythica all the way
Tactics returner probably looked the best of me I'm always a fan of SRPGs
Full Circle and Lost Hellden.
I can't believe I didn't have Full Circle in my wishlist yet.
Thank you for showcasing Gales of Nayeli! We recently added battle animations to really hit that GBA Fire Emblem unit feel! We hope you like the demo, too!!
Just saw the screen shots, I just wishlisted. I love the GBA Fire Emblem games, they were my first ones.
@@eddielopez6796 Same! Who knew picking up FE7 as a 12 years old would change the course of my life towards game development!
Had no idea about that game until I saw this video but can’t wait to check it out!
Thank you for showcasing Grey Heritage: Noble Duty! I've been a long time fan so it's so cool to see my game on this channel.
Card-en-Ciel and Haruka have my attention, and there's just so many upcoming games to look forward to in general. Great list Taylor, love how much you were able to cram within this video!
Thanks dude! I try my best to jam-pack the videos so people have a lot of choice. Glad to hear you found a few that look cool.
I see about 4 to 5 titles in this that caught my attention. Ty for the list!
Card en ciel is so beautiful and I can't wait for it. So is Anima song of the Abyss
Great video and thanks for using chapters in your videos.
Thank you for covering Pillory!
Thank you so much for covering Legends of Astravia!
Would I be right in saying that your game was inspired by the Golden Sun series? The animations and general format seem pretty similar
@@jaredardron9070 Golden Sun was a huge inspiration for sure, so that's a huge compliment haha. Thanks!
@@JaidenAlemni No worries man, keep it up, will be interested to play once it's ready !
Thanks for featuring Echoes of the Stars! Definitely going to Wishlist some of these other JRPG gems!
Fair play there's some awesome JRPGS on the horizon!
Excited to check out full circle an hellden had my eye on those ones.
As always fantastic video man! A lot of these games are on my wishlist already and I can't wait to play them all. It's great to see how many Indie RPGs are coming up and it's awesome that you give them a Spotlight!
So glad someone is mentioning SerialWorld!
Thanks for showing Anima!
WOW!!! I found such amazing gems in this video! Thank you so much what a great compilation!
Always appreciate these. And how you mention how to support these smaller devs!
As an additional note, Inti Creates also made the Megaman Zero/ZX series. Some of my personal favorites.
Whoa, there is a TON of promising games to come !
Really good looking games. Thanks. I'm most excited for Lost Moon, Lumentale and SerialWorld.
Great video like always, love me some indies!
I had already backed a number of these and had others on my radar but a bunch were new to me
Thanks for the list!
I added so many of these to my wishlist! Thanks for bringing them to my attention.

Ayo, the Nikke ost in the background, a man of culture 🤝
Wow didnt expect maliki poison of the past to appear here ! It's based on a french comic yes (maliki) while being a complete original story made for the game!
Great video! Followed bc i didnt know of any of these
thanks for putting this together for us! I'm gunna check out Scarmonde! looks like a classic rpg to me!
The time travel one reminds me of CrisTales where the time travel can be used to weaken enemies and bosses or potentially strengthen them. The art style is interesting and the story doesn't seem to be bad at all, I've only played the demo, but I recommend checking it out
full circle, looks pretty good
Tako no himitsu, tactics returners and Lost Hellden seems like my jam i hope for smooth releases and fun games.
I am going to buy and love all of those games!!!
WOW amazing list , thank you
Serial World look amazing!
Have been a tester for Scarmonde. It is what it says on the tin and a lot of fun to play if you like the more retro RPGs. Highly recommend!
Have you tried any of their other games?
@@UnfairBandicoot Yeah. I know him from a game dev website we're both members of, and I've played some of his games.
Venaitura is well worth checking out if you like the old-school retro RPG vibes. I've yet to try out To Aerthen, though I will when I have more time for my backlog.

One of my most anticipated indie games is Mirthwood!
It's like a medieval Stardew Valley + Elder Scrolls combo, you should check it out!
OUCH my backlog, OOF my wallet, PLEASE have mercy!
Sorry not sorry 😆
After you've scrubbed all the floors in Hyrule, then we can talk about mercy
Squadala! 🧙🏻♂️
haha my thoughts exactly so I won't watch the video just yet
Still recovering from Summer Sale lol. Goods news, most don't come out till next year so there is time.....
Wow, I've never heard of any of these. That's a really nice list, even if not all of them are actually JRPGs. I'll personally keep an eye on that Ni no Kuni lookalike.
Just comes to show how big the indie scene is for rpgs is because i have been exploring around and checking out upcoming games on and off for the past few years and i haven't even heard of half of these. More to the wish list i guess 🤣
Also i would like in Maliki when it was mentioned that you can throw enemies through time that some enemies would pop in out of nowhere because future/past you didn't feel like fighting them at the time.
Thank you
the scarmone game is it gonna be only on pc or is it gonna come to switch and is it a posability you'l review it
Great list! I hate that some of these are PC only, like Full Circle. Neon Blood looks very much like Anno:Mutationem!
omg so many interesting games on the list
HOW do you even find all these gems like??! Such a great research job (((:
Honestly? I mostly just go to Steam and search by the JRPG tag lol. There are so many cool games on there that nobody bothers to check out.
God, there are way too many good games. My backlog only gets bigger and bigger.
Every time I see "Lost Hellden" I ugly-cry at the localisation mistake...
("Helden" is German for "hero", with some grammatical shenanigans. Refer to Strauss's "Ein Heldenleben".)
That's all assuming that I'm correct, though, but I'm not finding anything outside of swedish politics when I look up "hellden".
I know JRPGs don't focus on graphics much but dam.
They’re indie games so they’re gonna have the best graphics
@@TheGamingShelf I know, but ps3 ys looks better than these games and octopath traveler is 6 years old on 7 year old hardware and the indie scene can't catch up?
That's a lot of indie games. Really makes me miss StegoSoft.
Almost left when he said pc only 😅
Twitter is called X.
No Rupee, I don't want to buy anything from the shop.... Wait wrong game.
ALL PORT TO SWITCH PLEASE
One day, if they all sell well on PC.
For me I do not have much interest with those upcoming games. One reason is that TOO MANY new games have been released! If I had to pick ONE game from this list, it would be "SerialWorld", and it is a currently good-looking game in my opinion. Other games on this list are just basic and something I have seen before.
The insanity is strong jn these games.
Ys is pronounced Eece like fleece, not ease.
"Takes place in 90's earth. Would be interesting to see how that is like."
What are you talking about? 90's were like...
*Checks calender* 34 years ago... Ugh...
some of those were not JRPGs they were RPGs your vid is a bit misleading it should be 25 Upcoming Indie JRPGs and RPGs still good vid though
It's a marketing thing. Not quite as snappy of a title. They all have a JRPG spirit if that makes sense lol.
I don't see any RPGs.
Look, lots of these games look great but does the "J" in JRPG not mean anything anymore?
IMO, JRPG is more of a style of game rather than where the game is made.
For example, Sea of Stars was made in France but I feel like it's way more of a JRPG than say Dragon's Dogma II, which is more of Western-style RPG made in Japan.

My biggest gripe with Lost Hellden is the fact that you only see you character in the overworld and not the full party, always a shame when games do this
I'm a JRPG fan but gotta say... none of those really looks interesting to me...
wow 90% crap and only 2 games that might be worth lookin at in the future
No fan service = No buy.
Says JRPG ….shows rpg by western developers
Final Fantasy IX was made in America. Doesn’t matter where the game was made. It’s more of a style of game at this point.
A lot of these are not JRPGs
JRPG is a genre not a PDOC product like champagne lmao
All of them look like a waste of time besides Neon Blood
