2020’s Top 8 Game of the Year Contenders so Far

Nioh 2

Team Ninja went above and beyond with this successor to Nioh, throwing in so many new elements that it’s hard to keep track of.

By adding in RPG skill trees, character customization, and a slew of new abilities, Nioh 2’s outrageous and entertaining combat is taken to a new level from its predecessor in terms of variety and difficulty.

Nioh 2 might cause you to have a controller-throwing tantrum from time to time but man, once you familiarize yourself with the enemies and get your playstyle down, you’re going to have a grand ol’ time.

Nioh 2 didn’t get as much attention as some other games on this list when it launched back in March but Soulsborne aficionados will cherish it fondly for a very long time.
