RPGs<\/a> are often home to some of the grandest storytelling and character development that\u2019s accomplished in video games, but the genre is sometimes viewed as impenetrable for outside audiences. Boasting titles that are infamous for their difficulty or complexity,\u00a0such as Dark Souls<\/em>, it’s hard to argue that the reputation isn’t earned.<\/p>\n

Games like Final Fantasy<\/a> <\/em>look like a lot of fun, but they also look complex in terms of their goals and battle mechanics. Thankfully, there are plenty of RPGs that are less grueling experiences, making perfect titles for players who\u00a0may not have a great deal of experience with the genre and are curious enough to dip their toes in.<\/p>\n

Updated January 19th, 2021 by Meg Pelliccio:<\/strong> RPGs are one of the biggest gaming genres out there and they can be a bit daunting to gamers wanting to step into the genre, but not wanting to be completely overwhelmed by some of the most in-depth and expansive RPGs out there.<\/em><\/p>\n

Fortunately, there are plenty of RPG titles that are perfect for beginners and can introduce them to the fan-favorite genre gently, so that once they’ve found their footing they can then move on to the big league RPG franchises. Check out these 15 RPG titles just below that are perfect for those new to the genre.<\/em><\/p>\n

15 <\/span>Immortals Fenyx Rising<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Immortals Fenyx Rising<\/em><\/a> was created by the same Ubisoft studio that brought fans Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey<\/em><\/a>, and it’s unsurprising given how similar the two are. While Odyssey<\/em> is not an ideal game for those new to RPG, Fenyx Rising<\/em> offers a more watered-down, simplified version with many of the same features and plenty of comedy.<\/p>\n

Fenyx Rising<\/em> still offers a wide-open world to explore<\/a>, though it is considerably smaller than that Odyssey<\/em>, with plenty of sidequests should the player want to delve a bit deeper. This game offers multiple difficulty modes, including “Story” for those who want to appreciate the storyline with the difficult battles. This game is available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, and Nintendo Switch.<\/p>\n

14 <\/span>Dragon Quest XI:\u00a0Echoes of an Elusive Age<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age<\/em><\/a>\u00a0might come from a prestigious long line of RPG games, but it actually offers a brilliant introductory option to the RPG genre<\/a>. Many fans believe this entry to be the best in the series and offers both old and new RPG players a classic feel with turn-based battles and a party setup.<\/p>\n

The game has pristine manga-style graphics, a great plotline, and some fantastic music. There’s even a hard mode for anyone who wants to challenge themselves. The original version of Dragon Quest XI<\/em> is available on PlayStation 4 and 3DS, while the upgraded\u00a0Dragon Quest XI S<\/em> version is available for Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.<\/p>\n

13 <\/span>Ni No Kuni\u00a0Series<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The Ni No Kuni<\/em><\/a> series has two titles to its name, both of which are great RPGs for those unfamiliar with the genre. Both games offer smooth cell-shaded graphics, fantastic emotional storylines, interesting combat, and a large world to explore. While both games have many similarities, they also have notable differences, such as the combat system.<\/p>\n

Ni No Kuni<\/em> uses familiar creatures in battle<\/a>, with players not really using the main characters to fight at all, whereas Ni No Kuni 2<\/em><\/a> has the characters themselves fighting, though they can summon creatures called Higgledies to help them. Ni No Kuni<\/em> is available on PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Switch, while the remaster is available on PC and PlayStation 4. Ni No Kuni 2<\/em> is available for PlayStation 4 and PC.<\/p>\n

12 <\/span>Snack World: The Dungeon Crawl Gold<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Snack World: The Dungeon Crawl Gold<\/em><\/a> was the long-awaited western release of\u00a0Snack World: Trejarers<\/em>, with the franchise being incredibly popular in Japan with it encompassing more than just games, but manga, toy lines, and anime too.<\/p>\n

This game blends RPG elements with dungeon-crawler style areas for the player to explore. This is a great option for someone looking for a more casual RPG and also offers online multiplayer of up to four players. Snack World<\/em> is available for Nintendo Switch.<\/p>\n

11 <\/span>My Time at Portia<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

My Time at Portia<\/em> is another great introductory RPG that blends classic RPG elements with simulation game features. This brilliant mixture of genres offers players a game where players can fix up their house, craft, gather and farm, while also delving into dungeons to fight monsters and romance the NPCs in town.<\/p>\n

While this might sound like a lot of content, the game presents it in a really easy to understand way, making it perfect for anyone new to RPGs. My Time at Portia<\/em> is available on PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.<\/p>\n

10 <\/span>Super Paper Mario<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The Paper Mario<\/em> series<\/a> is one of the best RPG franchises to get into for those that are new to the genre. They take a barebones framework of\u00a0RPG mechanics and combine it with the\u00a0colorful and vibrant\u00a0world of Mario.<\/p>\n

None of the Paper Mario<\/em> games are that difficult, but the easiest entry in the series is the Wii\u2019s Super Paper Mario<\/em>. While they’re light, the RPG mechanics are very much present and they make an effective primer\u00a0for tackling more challenging RPGs. The Paper Mario<\/em> series<\/a> is exclusive to Nintendo consoles, with the most recent release of\u00a0Paper Mario: The Origami King<\/em><\/a> being available for Nintendo Switch.<\/p>\n

9 <\/span>Quest 64<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Quest 64<\/em> is the definition of a beginner RPG, right down to the fact that it features a cute art aesthetic where even the vicious monsters don’t come across as intimidating. This\u00a0Nintendo 64<\/a> game\u00a0is definitely noteworthy for being one of the few true RPGs to be released on the console.<\/p>\n

None of the encounters and fights are very challenging, nor is the game particularly difficult in general. It can be finished in\u00a0just a few breezy sittings. The game doesn’t even feature a currency system and every item is gained for free instead, which simplifies things even further.<\/p>\n

8 <\/span>Pok\u00e9mon<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Pok\u00e9mon<\/em><\/a> has grown into a global phenomenon that\u2019s expanded far beyond video games, so much so that it\u2019s sometimes easy to forget that they’re\u00a0RPGs from a technical standpoint. The core concept of Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> games pull from turn-based battle RPGs, but they create so much of their own world and add so much to the formula that Pok\u00e9mon<\/em> titles<\/a> almost feel like their own genre. No\u00a0game in the series is particularly\u00a0punishing and they all work well for beginners.<\/p>\n

However,\u00a0Pok\u00e9mon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire<\/a><\/em>, which remake the original titles, are a solid choice that won\u2019t overwhelm the player. Additionally, the most recent release of Pok\u00e9mon Sword and Shield<\/em><\/a>\u00a0for Nintendo Switch are also ideal entries, as they guide players through the story and content.<\/p>\n

7 <\/span>Costume Quest<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Costume Quest <\/em><\/a>is a delight on every level, and it’s brought to us by the talented folks at Double Fine Productions with a script that\u2019s co-written by the legendary Tim Schafer of Monkey Island<\/a>, Grim Fandango, <\/em>and Psychonauts <\/em>fame.<\/p>\n

RELATED:\u00a010 Games To Try If You Liked Grim Fandango<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Costume Quest <\/em>stars a bunch of children who are out trick-or-treating on Halloween when danger suddenly sweeps them all up into adventure. The game has an adorable aesthetic to it, but then the battles switch over to exaggerated feats of strength as these precocious kids embody their Halloween costumes to fight monsters. It’s a treat that’s heavy on story and light on battle mechanics. Costume Quest<\/em> is available on PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and mobile devices.<\/p>\n

6 <\/span>Wild Arms<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Wild Arms <\/em>is an RPG for the original PlayStation<\/a> that\u2019s easy to overlook\u00a0considering the abundance of popular classic\u00a0RPGs on the console. Wild Arms <\/em>is a fantastic title for players that want something that still has a deep and engrossing story, but is considerably simpler than the standard RPG.<\/p>\n

Wild Arms <\/em>was released at the same time as Final Fantasy VII <\/em>and it\u2019s easy to see\u00a0that\u00a0Wild Arms <\/em>aims for much lower heights, but still puts together a successful RPG that creatively mixes 2D gameplay with 3D battles.<\/p>\n

5 <\/span>Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The\u00a0Knights of the Old Republic <\/em>series was\u00a0certainly a benchmark for Star Wars <\/em>games<\/a>. The first Knights of the Old Republic <\/em>is often lauded for its surprisingly deep RPG mechanics. However, they’re far from insurmountable, and what\u00a0<\/em>it a truly\u00a0great beginner RPG is the fact that it differs from the standard fantasy setting.<\/p>\n

By channeling the wholesome sci-fi goodness that the greater franchise is known for,\u00a0it potentially appeals to players who aren’t necessarily looking for a high fantasy experience.\u00a0Knights of the Old Republic\u00a0<\/em>released for the original Xbox and PC but was also later ported to mobile devices. It is also playable on both Xbox 360 and Xbox One via backward compatibility.<\/p>\n

4 <\/span>Secret Of Mana<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The Mana series<\/a><\/em> does a remarkable job at taking the most charming aspects of the Final Fantasy <\/em>franchise, but rounding off the edges and embracing more of a fairytale-like atmosphere for its quests. Secret of Mana <\/em>has entertaining characters and a powerful story that never becomes too complex or overbearing\u00a0in terms of\u00a0the narrative.<\/p>\n

RELATED:\u00a010 Lesser-Known RPGs Coming In 2021<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

The gameplay is also very easy to pick up and can easily be grasped within only a few battles. The original Secret of Mana <\/em>still holds up, but its recent remake is also a suitable substitution that offers a more modern take on the classic game. The most recent release in the series is Trials of Mana<\/em><\/a>, which is a 3D remake of the third title in the series. Trials of Mana<\/em> is available on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC.<\/p>\n

3 <\/span>Skies Of Arcadia<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Skies of Arcadia <\/em>is one of the best RPGs of all time and it\u2019s\u00a0a rare gem that\u2019s satisfying for both complete newcomers to the genre as well as seasoned veterans. This is achieved through the game\u2019s unique story and characters in addition to a battle system that\u2019s innovative and enjoyable, but never disorienting.<\/p>\n

The learning curve is also remarkably comfortable. Originally seeing release on the Dreamcast<\/a> and then receiving an updated port on the Gamecube, Skies of Arcadia<\/em> is an RPG title that’s easy to miss, but it’s recently received a greater level of appreciation and support.<\/p>\n

2 <\/span>Chrono Trigger<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Chrono Trigger<\/a> <\/em>is one of Square\u2019s timeless JRPG masterpieces. Even though it is an RPG that can pose a challenge and expect a lot of its players, it never feels like too much and the payoffs are\u00a0incredibly gratifying.<\/p>\n

Chrono Trigger <\/em>is an RPG where gamers will get as much out of it as they put in, which allows it\u00a0<\/em>to be an incredibly long experience or a journey that\u2019s more succinct, depending on the player\u2019s preference. There\u2019s a lot to master and experience in the game, but it remains accessible and thoroughly enjoyable even today.<\/p>\n

1 <\/span>Persona 5 (Safety Mode)<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

The Persona <\/em><\/a>series may seem daunting for newcomers to RPGs. However, the Persona <\/em>games have an effective failsafe built-in for beginners with its difficulty settings. Persona 5<\/a> <\/em>is considered to be the easiest game in the series, but its \u201cSafety Difficulty\u201d removes any semblance of challenge.<\/p>\n

The biggest changes are that a loss in battle doesn’t result in a game over and players can continually retry. Other perks include the player dealing much more damage and taking less damage from enemies. Players can experience the story and RPG genre with literally none of the stress, allowing them to truly take it at their own pace. Persona 5<\/em> is available for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4, while its upgraded version Persona 5 Royal<\/em> is available for PlayStation 4.<\/p>\n
