Eurogamer readers' top 50 games of 2020
2020 has been an extremely unusual year, so hopefully it’s a bit of a treat to end it in our usual way – with the top fifty games of the last twelve months, as chosen by you.
What we said: “You can’t call it a comeback when you’ve always been the king.”
“It’s early days, but this is as good as WoW has been for over ten years,” says Kiliko. “So much content, no vicious gating, very alt-friendly, great looking zones. It feels similar to what I thought WoW 2 would be like back in 2010. A joy to see my friends list extremely active again.”
“An amazing comeback of the best but recently slacking mmorpg,” says Longbraz.
What we said: “Yakuza 0 is, in many respects, the end of an era – and a heck of a finish it is, too.”
“Amazing game. It is a great into to the Yakuza series,” says Abhayd, who is currently halfway through Kiwami, so it must work.
Elsewhere lots of votes but not many comments for this one. You Yakuza fans keep it close, which I appreciate.
What we said: “Lair of the Clockwork is a delight which leaves me with a warm fuzzy feeling having finished it. The talent and experience of Ben Ward and Dan Marshall beams through. It’s in the practiced delivery of the jokes, in the game’s well thought out pacing (getting the bigger stuff out of the way earlier, enabling a speedier finish), and in the many ways Ben and Dan, both creators and characters, poke fun at an industry they’ve been a part of for many years. Lair of the Clockwork God is both a fulfilling platform-adventure and loving satire all in one. I strongly recommend you play it.”
