List RulesGames don't have to be console exclusive, as long as they were released for PlayStation at some point.
If you owned a PlayStation at any time during your life, then it's safe to say there were probably a few RPGs in your collection. There's something about role-playing games that really capture your imagination and make you feel like you're part of another world. Your party always has colorful characters, the abilities you gain along the way are amazing, and boss battles are usually nothing short of epic.
With so many great options to choose from, there was never a shortage of games to play for fans of the genre. Since some games were much better than others, we've decided to rank the best PlayStation RPGs of all time. Some of the best RPGs ever made were released for the PS1, including one of the most popular RPGs of all time, Final Fantasy VII.
This list features the most popular and best-selling PS1 RPGs that were ever released. While many of these games were console exclusive, we're allowing non-exclusives to be a part of the list as well. This poll contains top titles like Final Fantasy VII and Chrono Cross.
