Best Video Games 2020

Squeaking in right at the end of the year, CD Projekt Red’s massive and ambitious futuristic RPG doesn’t quite live up to its unstoppable hype machine, but it’s still a staggering accomplishment. Set in the neon dystopia of Night City, players have almost unfettered freedom to explore, from the seedy underworld to the heights of mega-corp opulence and influence. The future of this world is in the cybernetically enhanced V though, a runner on the mean streets, caught in a conspiracy that involves the fate of the city and the digital ghost of Keanu Reeves (well, kind of). Night City may be a corporate-run hellhole, but with heaps of customisation options and a multitude of ways to tackle almost every encounter, it’s a hellhole that players will be putting their mark on and making discoveries in for years to come. But all of this comes at a price. If you’re playing the game on PC or one of the next gen consoles, then congratulations. But anyone attempting to play Cyberpunk on a base PS4 or XB1 is, for the time being, in for a world of pain. If you fall into the latter group then we strongly advise you to wait for either the promised fix (due early 2021) or until you get a more powerful console.
