- Halo Infinite. For over a decade, 343 Industries has been the shepherd of the Halo universe, taking the reins from original developer, Bungie, and continuing to chart a new course for the series.
- Deathloop. There’s a moment in Deathloop when it all clicks. Not a specific moment. It's likely at different points for every person, but eventually, players will figure out the game’s various puzzles and mechanics.
- Resident Evil Village. Resident Evil Village is relentless. From its opening moments to its eventual conclusion, it’s a non-stop, terrifying ride. Village is not only one of the best games of the year; it’s one of the best horror games of all time.
- Returnal. Acohesive undercurrent runs throughout the entirety of Returnal to create a masterpiece; art, gameplay, music, sound, and design come together in a symphony that all seems to have been crafted by the same hand.

- Chivalry II
- This and That
Forza Horizon remains the best pure arcade racer around, and Forza Horizon 5 perfects the series’ bombastic open-world action. Chasing down vehicles hidden in barns throughout Mexico never gets boring, and there’s new races or goodies hiding around seemingly every bend. Simply changing car classes can change the feel of almost every race (before yo...
This is sci-fi horror at its best. Chernobylite tasks you with exploring an alternate history version of the area in and around Chernobyl, armed with makeshift weapons in hopes of finding your long-lost wife. If you’re into sci-fi, horror, or the history around the Chernobyl disaster, this is a must play. It plays similar to shooters like Metro and...
For me, one AAA title stands above the rest this year: Deathloop, from Dishonored developer Arkane. While this first-person shooter doesn’t break a lot of new ground in terms of mechanics, its remix of die-respawn-die-again gameplay and Dark Souls-style “invasion” multiplayer are worth checking out. But the real draw is Deathloop‘s world, a bizarre...
Two psychological horror game greats (Bloober Team and Silent Hill‘s Akira Yamaoka) team up for a truly haunting tale of a spirit medium who can inhabit both the real and spirit worlds. The Medium is set in post-communist Poland in 1999. The story takes plenty of twists and turns along the way, but it’s the dual-worlds gameplay that truly sets this...
Final Fantasy XIV is more than just a game to me, it’s a work of art. Between the gorgeous dungeons and the vibrant landscapes, it’s one of the most beautiful games I’ve ever played. The story is also creative and engaging, and I’ve found myself getting attached to the main cast of characters. For an MMO, the community is surprisingly laid-back as ...
While some of those on PCWorld’s staff dismiss Halo as ‘just a console shooter,’ gamers like me who’ve played Halo from the beginning have been eagerly awaiting the next chapter in the saga. The new semi-open world of Halo Infinite’s singleplayer campaign is a big departure from Halo games of yore, but 343 has nailed the transition and provided a f...
I can’t think of a more ‘PC-ass PC game’ of 2021 than Chivalry II. It’s a first-person, 64-player medieval combat game born from an ultra-popular Half-Life 2 mod, and it has a dedicated Shout button that does nothing more than make you feel badass running to meet your death. Through a wide-ranging blend of multiplayer modes and maps I’ve experience...
Like last year, I dipped in and out of many more games than we could ever list here, so I wanted to cast a spotlight on a few more you shouldn’t miss—mostly indies. Hitman 3 is the pinnacle of the Hitman series’ over-the-top murder sandbox gameplay, nailing absolutely every aspect. It’s not just great, it’s almost infinitely replayable. Loop Hero i...

Dec 17, 2021 · Deathloop is one of the most fascinating video games of not just 2021, but the last few years. It’s a complex and intricate design, fitting together elements of roguelikes, metroidvanias ...
- Deathloop. After the past two years of pandemic outbreak and lockdown, it’s impossible to imagine a more perfect Game of the Year for 2021 than Deathloop, a game about trying to escape from a day that repeats itself forever.
- Valheim. Multiplayer survival games are a dime a dozen, but every now and then one bubbles up out of the blue and captures the collective attention of PC gamers the world over.
- Psychonauts 2. Psychonauts 2 proves that level design can tell a story. A hospital turned gambling den isn’t just an opportunity to steer a pachinko ball through a medical diagram of the human body; it’s an exploration of gambling addiction and the morality of manipulation.
- Resident Evil Village. Capcom managed to build up hype early in Resident Evil Village’s marketing cycle solely by exploiting – inadvertently or otherwise – the internet’s collective horniness for 9ft tall dommy vampire mummies.
