7. Pillars of Eternity II
Best Xbox One Games of 2020 So Far
Pillars of Eternity II didn’t originally release in 2020. In fact, it released way back in May 2018 for the PC, but it only hit the Xbox One this year, and what a game it is.
Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire takes the isometric RPG gameplay that was so popular from the first game, and throws players onto the open seas. You’ll use a ship to explore various islands, and even recruit a crew to look over your ship and assist you in the occasional bit of naval combat.
The class-based gameplay is deep, with each class having four optional sub-classes to really allow you to finetune your experience.
While it may feel a little unnatural playing Pillars of Eternity II with a controller at first, it all becomes second nature after a while. Not to mention the game’s enormous with an absolute ton of content, so this should be able to keep you occupied during these quiet months at the end of the Xbox One’s life cycle.
