Game of the Year 2021

Let’s go now to see which are the six games nominated for the title of Game of the Year 2021 and to decide who should be the winner in our opinion.

Let’s start by saying that this was the year of the next-gen consoles but surely not of the next-gen games. Aside from Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart and Returnal which use some Playstation 5 features to a limited extent, it seems that we will have to wait for the truly next-gen games for a while longer. Having made this due clarification, here is our podium.

GOTY 2021

1° Resident Evil Village – Capcom

2° Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart – Insomniac Games/Sony Interactive Entertainment

3° It Takes Two – Hazelight Studios/Electronic Arts

Yes, Resident Evil Village is our winner, among the nominees for the Game of the Year 2021. A game that we could, at the end of the first year of the next-gen, define old-gen.
It does not matter the next-gen when you have a title like Resident Evil Village in your hands. The Eighth chapter of the Resident Evil saga and first true sequel, as it continues the story of Ethan, which we have already seen in his predecessor Resident Evil 7. Four fantastic macro-areas inspired and very detailed, enemies and variety of situations that never bore the player, a well-constructed plot and a very rich lore, always well-placed twists, what else to add? In our opinion, the “old-gen” still has some very good cartridges to fire before the end.

Most Anticipated Game 2021

To conclude, here are the nominations of the most anticipated games and our winner.

Those who follow our channels are well aware of the love we feel for what is called the “soulslike” genre. The writer tried the first Dark Souls relatively late compared to its release date and was instantly blown away. While very curious about what the final result of Starfield will be, we are waiting for nothing but Elden Ring!

For those who haven’t read it yet, we would like to point out our personal point of view on what the “soulslike” genre is, which you can find by clicking here.
