The leader of the pantheon comes back for another try at the title. Will our 2020 Least Worst winner manage to get its second crown?

Hades II

Puzzles, Roguelike mechanics and unique setting, all mixed perfectly together.

Blue Prince

Dogubomb

What a realistic simulation of trudging your way up from peasant to the right hand of a nobleman, and it only took wading through shit and a grand robbery of the kingdom's treachery!

Kingdom Come: Deliverance II

Warhorse Studios

The meme and the wait paid off in the most satisfying way. If only every single other long dev cycle delivered in such a way.

Hollow Knight: Silksong

Team Cherry

Sakurai's 256-part how-to on making games culminated into a master thesis

Kirby Air Riders

Another deep dive in a world broken by life with Sam Bridges. Don't forget, we are all connected.

Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter

Nihon Falcom

GATE approved fun for the whole team. Survival not guaranteed

Abiotic Factor

Deep Field Games

I'll take a high skill hack n' slash game, dip it with optional moves and weapons you can buy, deep fry it in combat arenas with middling enemy variety and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Ninja Gaiden 4

Team Ninja, PlatinumGames

All we wanted as a classic superhero story that let us romance hot chicks and maybe some gameplay, to spoil us. It delivered and we liked it.
