10 Modern JRPGs For Newcomers

10 Modern JRPGs For Newcomers

Every now and then I see questions come up asking about what JRPGs are a good starting point, or what JRPGs would I recommend to a newcomer. First impressions matter, so i always think what games are most likely to hook someone in to the genre.

In my mind, these 10 games fit the bill, and in no particular order, I'll share them all with you!

My general criteria is that I wanted these JRPGs to be fairly recent and most importantly easily accessible. That would mean they are either multi-platform or on current gen hardware, or both in some cases. The rest of the criteria was simply looking for quality JRPGs which generally speak for themselves, thus finding the JRPGs that are worth playing straight away.
