After leading design on the critically acclaimed Civilization V, Jon Shafer went indie. The result is the recently released At the Gates, a 4X strategy game focused on the final days of the Roman Empire. We recently spoke with Shafer on how At the Gates came together, how he broke into the game industry at a young age, and his advice for indie developers struggling to make it to the finish line.

It seems like every year is better than the next when it comes to the video game industry, and 2019 is looking to be no exception. This coming year will see the return of storied game franchises like Devil May Cry, Gears of War, and Metroid Prime, as well as see the birth of brand games to get lost in like The Outer Worlds, Anthem, and many, many more. 

There are a ton of games to be excited about, so while it may be difficult to narrow it down to just a few, the Gamepedia editorial team has done just that. Read on to see what games we can't wait to play in 2019, and go ahead and buckle in, because it's going to be a fantastic year for gaming. 

It seems like each and every year, video games keep breaking new ground. Just when you thought it can’t get any better than 2017, here comes 2018 to blow off the hatches. This year saw the release of huge, heavy-hitting titles like Red Dead Redemption 2, God of War, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and more. It also saw the release of equally compelling indie titles like Into the Breach, Celeste, Return of the Obra Dinn, and many, many others.

No matter your gaming preferences, 2018 saw some remarkable games that players won’t soon forget. So what games made the biggest impressions on the Gamepedia editorial team? Read on to find out!

Fans have been loving Northgard since it released back in March of this year, and the developers at Shiro Games have been hard at work since then adding new features and improvements to the Viking-themed RTS. The latest, available now, is a brand new clan for players to conquer Northgard with — Nidhogg, the clan of the Dragon.

The developers at Grinding Gear Games are always looking for new, fresh experiences to bring to Path of Exile. In 2018 alone players have captured beasts as part of the Bestiary league, traveled back in time as part of the Incursion league, and journeyed into the depths with Delve.

Now, to capstone an already content-filled 2018, Path of Exile will soon release its largest update of the year: Betrayal. We recently chatted with Grinding Gear Games managing director Chris Wilson to learn more.

We recently chatted with Grinding Gear Games managing director, Chris Wilson, to learn more about this upcoming league.

Another E3 has come and gone, and with it more video game announcements than one person can possibly compute. But that doesn't mean we here at Gamepedia haven't tried. There were a number of huge returning franchises and brand new titles that wowed us during this year's show. It's the biggest week in gaming for a reason. Here are all the games and moments from this year's E3 that brought the hype.

2017 was one heck of a year when it came to the world of video games. But even if 2017 might be hard to top, 2018 is looking mighty promising. We've already shared some of our favorite games from last year, and with 2017 officially in the rear-view mirror it's time to check out what games the writers of Gamepedia are most looking forward to in the new year.

Another year has come and gone, and we here at Gamepedia are still collectively trying to catch up on all the fantastic games that released over the past 12 months. It seems like the past few years have been exceptional for gamers, but 2017 especially feels like a perfect storm of fantastic new IPs and the triumphant return of beloved franchises. I mean, it's not every year we get a new entry in franchises like Legend of Zelda, Super Mario, Metroid, and Persona all in one year, and that's without even mentioning incredible new franchise starters like Horizon Zero Dawn and Cuphead. And who can forget the incredible (and ongoing) success of a game like PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, a game that seemingly came from nowhere to take the the gaming world by storm and even ended up walking away with a "Best Multiplayer Game" trophy at this year's Game Awards?

With all that in mind, it's hard, nigh, impossible, to narrow down the year's best games to just a meager handful. But we are going to try anyways. Here are the Gamepedia editorial writing team's favorite games of 2017.
