While 2020 hasn’t been a great year in many regards, it has been a progressive one for gaming as a whole. As we approach the start of 2021, it is time to look back at some of the best games we experienced this year.

We have put together a list of nominations for the most culturally impactful games of 2020. When we say culturally impactful, we mean these games caused a social media uproar and the ability to be at peace during the chaos we experienced in this crazy year. While there were many great games released throughout the course of 2020, we have selected ten that had the biggest influence this year (even if some of them didn't release in 2020.)

1. ‘Animal Crossing: New Horizons’

2. ‘Final Fantasy VII’

3. ‘Call of Duty: Warzone’

4. ‘Fortnite’

5. ‘Valorant’

6. ‘The Last of Us Part II’

7. ‘FIFA 21’

8. ‘Fall Guys’

9. ‘Among Us’

10. ‘Spider-Man: Miles Morales’

When it comes to 2020, this year was definitely carried by esports and gaming.

When we didn’t have sports, we had esports.

When we didn’t have movies and concerts, we had games to entertain us.

We think this year was the start of us seeing what the digital world will be like. We are only going to see games become bigger, better, and more impactful after this year.


P.S. Cyberpunk 2077 would have been on this list, but you know.
