Xenogears
psRole-Playing Game
Xenogears is a science-fiction role-playing game developed and published by Square for the original PlayStation. It follows Fei Fong Wong, a young man whose encounter with a powerful Gear draws him into a conflict involving ancient civilizations, religion, psychology, and the origins of humanity. Battles combine turn-based party combat with martial-arts input sequences and large-mech confrontations. The game is notable for its ambitious themes, extensive story, and distinctive visual direction, although its second disc is widely criticized for replacing much of its exploration with condensed narration. Despite that uneven structure, Xenogears has earned lasting recognition as one of the most thematically ambitious RPGs of its era.
How is this list kept current?
How rankings are calculated
The list is generated from active EmuGamers catalog entries. Votes and play activity determine order; browser compatibility is reported separately and does not turn an untested game into a higher-ranked recommendation.
| Order | Signal | How it is used |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Real community votes | Games with at least one recorded vote appear before games with no votes. |
| 2 | Rating confidence | More votes rank first, followed by the rating value. |
| 3 | Play activity | Play count breaks rating ties and orders entries with no votes. |
| 4 | Stable tie-break | Game name keeps otherwise equal results deterministic. |
