From the long-in-development epics to the console stalwarts, this year featured high profile titles from a wide variety of genres. But, when it comes to picking the best games of the year, the fight boils down to a select few - the games that stuck with players longer than others. Picking which games are worth honoring is easy, but picking just 10 is a tall task....

A New York resident has found out about the near-total loss of his collection of video games this week. The entire collection of video games thrown out is estimated to be at least $500,000 in value. An employee of New York City-based gaming store J&L Game, the unfortunate collector took to the internet to post his reaction to the situation on social media. The gamer had been storing his video games at his old family home, with a vast selection of titles and consoles that would’ve rivaled WWE Wrestler Asuka’s massive collection....

Cliff Bleszinski, the co-founder of Boss Key Productions, says he may return to the industry “slowly and cautiously” following the commercial failure of its multiplayer shooter LawBreakers and battle royale Radical Heights, which led to the collapse of his company. The Gears of War designer, who worked at Epic Games from 1992 to 2012, has written an autobiography in which he looks back on the breakdown of Boss Key, an endeavor he says was “pretty rough, facing all of the mistakes I made over the three-plus years” but still a “therapeutic” process....

She is a four-star hero in Genshin Impact who is part of the catalyst class, and she has a cryo vision that she can use to freeze her opponents in battle.

Genshin Impact introduced a housing system, but in order to get all the decorations you want, you will need to gather a special in-game currency. Realm Currency is different from mora, resin, and primogems and can only be earned inside of the Serenitea Pot itself. So far, there is only one way to actually earn realm currency, and it will be extremely slow to get in the beginning days of having your own realm....

For the last five days, Genshin Impact players have received a daily letter from the recently arrived Pyro-wielder and Knight of Favonius, Klee. Travelers have received a small token of appreciation along with each cute note, but the latest and final letter leaves players with more than a gift.

One Twitter user has reportedly leaked a character model image of an upcoming fighter, Tohama, in Genshin Impact, but even says themself in the post, “a grain of salt,” likely because there’s not much credence to go off of and it conflicts with past alleged datamined information. Genshin Impact has been no stranger to information leaks since its release back in September. Just a few hours ago, news of the Version 1....

Mihoyo has once again announced another round of buffs for Genshin Impact’s troubled five-star character, Zhongli. Like the previous round of notes mentioned, these changes will be reflected in the game’s 1.3 update. The Lord of Geo has had a rough go of it, and folks who spent primogems pulling for him ended up pretty disappointed. It’s a shame, as Zhongli has been one of the more interesting five-star characters to come out of the game and was quite popular with the community prior to his banner....

I recently jumped back into Genshin Impact for the first time in months, the sun-drenched fun of the coming 1.6 update showcasing enough cool ideas to convince me that perhaps this weeaboo rendition of Nintendo’s Breath of the Wild is worth another visit. It’s also set to debut a duo of adorable skins, which is enough for my trash weasel ass to return to any game, regardless of whether or not it’s burned me in the past....

We’ve known about it for years, although we didn’t really have a good idea of how the whole project was going until last June when Square revealed a few trailers and a gameplay demo at E3. And we gotta say, it’s looking pretty sweet. But it’s not coming out until March of next year, and when it does, it’ll just be the first episode....

The world of esports is competative, endurance testing, and attainable only to the best players, from the AGDQ players raising money for charity while speed running classic games, to the well trained esports teams competing against other top gamers. Indeed, having a certain level of skill seems like an obvious qualifier for getting in on an esports competition, but that’s not always the case, especially when celebrities and charities get involved, like Jason Sudeikis’ Ted Lasso and Trevor Noah joining FIFA 21 tournament “FIFA Face-Off....

Final Fantasy 7 Remake is still fairly fresh in the minds of players, while others are still taking their time to enjoy it, or even replay it. The game was a long over-due dose of nostalgia for long-time fans, while it introduced new players to the world and characters of Midgar.

Following months of hype and speculation, Square Enix finally blew the lid off of Final Fantasy 16. The next mainline entry in the venerable JRPG series was shown off during today’s PlayStation 5 showcase, with an impressive trailer that left us wanting more.
