Disclaimer:Dark Souls III,Bloodborne, andYakuza 0are action games with RPGs elements rather than JRPGs.

That said, it does improve as it goes along.

Originally a PlayStation Vita game,Tokyo Xanaduwas eventually enhanced and released on the PS4 and Microsoft Windows.

The story is also decent and the visuals are fantastic.
