As we step into a new year, let's take a moment to reflect on the games that graced us with their presence in 2020. From highly anticipated sequels to surprise indie hits, there was no shortage of great games to play.
One of the standout titles of 2020 was The Last of Us Part II. This highly anticipated sequel took players on an emotional journey through a post-apocalyptic world. The game's story was praised for its mature themes and complex characters, and the gameplay was lauded for its tight mechanics and visceral combat.
Another game that received critical acclaim in 2020 was Hades. This indie title from Supergiant Games was a rogue-like dungeon crawler with a Greek mythology twist. Players took on the role of Zagreus, the prince of the underworld, as he fought his way out of the depths of Hades. Hades was praised for its tight gameplay, gorgeous art style, and compelling story.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons was a game that couldn't have come at a better time. With many people stuck at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Animal Crossing provided a much-needed escape to a tropical island paradise. Players were able to customize their own homes, build a community with other villagers, and explore a vast world filled with surprises.
Doom Eternal was another highly anticipated sequel that delivered on all fronts. The game's fast-paced, demon-slaying action was taken to new heights with the addition of new weapons, abilities, and enemies. Doom Eternal was a non-stop adrenaline rush that kept players on the edge of their seats from start to finish.
Half-Life: Alyx was a game that many fans of the Half-Life series had been waiting for. This virtual reality title put players in the shoes of Alyx Vance as she fought to save humanity from the Combine. Half-Life: Alyx was praised for its innovative use of VR technology, and it was considered by many to be one of the best VR games of all time.
Ghost of Tsushima was a beautiful and immersive open-world game set in feudal Japan. Players took on the role of Jin Sakai, a samurai who fought to liberate his home from the Mongol invaders. The game's stunning visuals, compelling story, and satisfying combat made it one of the standout titles of 2020.
Ghost of Tsushima was actually my favorite game of the year. The world absolutely pulled me in, and I spent many many hours seeing what awaited me on the outside edges of the map.
Other notable games that released in 2020 include Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout, Final Fantasy VII Remake, and Among Us. It was a great year for gaming, and we can't wait to see what 2021 has in store.
