If you are like me and love classic JRPGs, music based games and gameplay, and games from small studios you need to check this out.

Proudly presenting People of Note, a turn-based RPG musical, releasing in 2026 in association with Annapurna Interactive.

You don't wanna miss this one, folks.

Over the performance issues or the gameplay?

I heard the gameplay is fun…… when the game works….

They reworked a lot of the stealth mechanics and missions from how it launched.

It’s a much more enjoyable experience now.

Hopefully the Switch 2 release gives it new life because it is a fun game.
