I feel Persona 5 counts as AAA, though still being less budget than one of Square-Enix's monstrously budgeted games. Something like Persona 4 or Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE would be more AA IMO.
Oh Daemon X Machina is 100% AA without question. Same probably for Octopath.
Desperados III fits in this category, I think? At any rate, it's a really satisfying set of stealth puzzles.
It's literally a Star Wars game published by EA. Even though it sometimes feels like a PS2 game (in a good way!) it's definitely AAA.
How is one of the biggest games from one of the biggest game companies on the planet, AA?
I dont see how either of those factors are relevant necessarily? EA has released games that are not AAA, and the Star Wars franchise has non-AAA games. In scope and ambition, it seems like it is on the same level as many of the titles mentioned here, like Yakuza, Darksiders, maybe even Greedfall.
Does Nioh count? Because if so it's Nioh. Or maybe Divinity Original Sin 2. What an amazing experience.
Honorable mention goes to Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden.
And how's Elex? I've heard positive things about it but whenever I watch videos of it it looks bland and barren. Almost like a single player MMO, if that makes sense.

Fire Pro Wrestling World would fall into this category as a lower overhead/lower budget Spike Chunsoft game, and that's my choice
Also if something launched at $60 retail, I don't consider it anything less than AAA, which is why I don't give it to No Man's Sky or the first run Yakuza games

Shadow Warrior 2
IMO it deserves to be up there with doom 16 but i can't blame people for sleeping on it with the loot/proc gen direction. and it does stem from an ostensibly racist game from the 90s (which SW2013 and SW2 patch up, at least imo)... but SW3 is a thing so i guess it sold okay enough

If Paradox brought out a game that year, that's my answer.
Also CK3 is legit dope, and a breath of fresh air for people who love the concept but had a hard time with previous titles due to the clunky interface.

Maneater. Loved it to bits. Platinum'd it in 1 day, can't remember the last time I had a 10+ hour game session. Felt like a kid again.
