All 18 games carry these catalogue tags: metroidvania, singleplayer.
A game needed a catalogue rating of at least 65 out of 100 and at least 100 ratings to be listed. These figures were frozen when the list was published on October 10, 2026.
What this list cannot tell you
- A tag shows that a game is associated with a topic. It does not show that the game suits you, and this list does not use your play history.
- This list does not filter by price, session length or player count. Check each store page for those.
- This selection is based on catalogue metadata, not hands-on testing for this page.
- Ratings and rating counts are catalogue figures frozen when the list was published. The list does not show which store produced them, and they change over time.
