You have wrapped up the Switch 2 remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. If you want more long campaigns with deep systems, these four RPGs deliver hours of exploration, combat, and progression.

Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave

This Switch 2 exclusive tactical RPG runs about 90 hours for the main routes and can push past 150 with side content. You manage multiple heroes across overlapping story paths, recruit a large cast, and build bonds between units outside battle.
  • Grid-based tactics with position, weapon triangle, and class promotions that change abilities.
  • Free-time segments let you train skills, shop, and raise supports that unlock dialogue and combat bonuses.
  • Multiple routes mean different maps, recruits, and story details depending on which heroes you prioritize.

The focus stays on careful unit positioning and long-term army building rather than pure action.

Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition (Switch 2 Edition)

This open-world action RPG drops you on the alien planet Mira with a customizable protagonist. The main story is substantial, but the real length comes from exploration, side quests, and collecting materials across huge zones.

  • Real-time combat where positioning, arts, and party synergy matter more than button mashing.
  • Pilot giant Skells that transform between walker and vehicle forms for faster travel and bigger fights.
  • Side content includes affinity missions, online squad tasks, and a massive bestiary that rewards thorough map coverage.

The Switch 2 version runs at higher resolutions and smoother frame rates, making the vast landscapes easier to traverse.

Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age - Definitive Edition

This traditional turn-based JRPG follows the Luminary and a growing party on a classic adventure. Expect 50 to 70 hours for the main story, with extra chapters and side content pushing it higher.

  • Turn-based battles with Pep powers that trigger special combos based on party mood and positioning.
  • Party members gain unique skills and equipment trees you can respec as new areas open up.
  • Towns, dungeons, and optional content include a 2D mode and character-focused side stories.

It sticks to clear exploration, dungeon crawling, and steady character growth that feels familiar after Ocarina of Time.

Metaphor: ReFantazio

it

Atlus's critically acclaimed fantasy RPG runs around 65 hours for the main campaign and longer with side content. You enter a royal tournament while managing daily schedules, followers, and Archetype progression.

  • Press Turn combat rewards exploiting enemy weaknesses and chaining party actions for extra turns.
  • Archetypes function like flexible classes that you level and switch, unlocking skills and party synergies.
  • Follower bonds and calendar management unlock new abilities, dialogue, and story branches between dungeon runs.

The mix of dungeon crawling, social systems, and tactical battles gives it a different rhythm from pure action or pure strategy games.

Each of these offers a different combat style while keeping the long, systems-heavy RPG structure you just finished. Pick the one that matches how you like to spend your hours on Switch 2.
