Considering picking up something after Hollow Knight.

Recommendations between:
Axiom Verge
Dead Cells
Bloodstained
Steamworld Dig 2?


Bloodstained and Dead Cells are both freaking great. Do note that DC's a roguelike though, so it's not going to be that much like most Metroidvanias.

In 2002 this answer would have been Metroid by far for me, but Metroid has done very little since then (Prime games are kind of a different genre, and not one I care for), while Castlevania has just gotten better and better. OoE and Bloodstained (it's Castlevania as far as I'm concerned) are amazing.

I'm probably still inclined to vote Metroid just because it's so much better at amosphere. Every Castlevania comes across as dopey to me, even SotN. But I could be argued pretty easily.


You can't count Bloodstained as a Castlevania and not mention AM2R for recent great Metroid games!
