Role-playing games are more popular than ever in 2023, with plenty of different offerings throughout the year showing their immense potential for diverse experiences. From Final Fantasy 16’s modern twist on the JRPG formula to Sea of Stars’ retro-inspired presentation to Baldur’s Gate 3’s faithful digitization of Dungeons and Dragons, it’s been a great twelve months for the genre. Nestled among the releases was Starfield, the latest and much-anticipated project by Bethesda Game Studios.
