We've shared which games won our hearts in 2019, but now it's time to look to the future! While some of them might not be brand-spanking-new, we're still looking forward to their remakes this year. Check out what our writers' top 3 picks are for 2020!
It's the end of the year and as we look one more time back into 2019 to reflect on our lives, we include those times we were thoroughly entertained. Be it with friends and family, or flying solo, video games have always held our sway in one form or another. I mean, that’s why you’re here, right?
There have been so many great games this year, but we want to focus on those that we cherished the most.
Toys-to-life games, games that have both a digital and physical components, had quite a moment earlier in the decade. After the closure of the studio that made Disney Infinity a couple of years ago, the sub-genre has been on ice. Until now, that is! Ubisoft Toronto, the studio that brought us Far Cry 4 and Far Cry Primal, looks to shoot the genre in the arm with a heaping helping of... Star Fox? Starlink: Battle of Atlas thinks it's possible!
Far Cry games are always big affairs, and the latest in the seminal series, Far Cry 5, is no different. Just as boisterous and zany as ever, Far Cry finally goes to a place it has never been before — America.
In Wildlands, the Santa Blanca Drug Cartel has the citizens of the beautiful, tropical nation of Bolivia suffocating under its cocaine-fueled violence and terror. As a member of the Ghosts, the US Elite Special Operations team, you and your squad will work to free the country from the specter of El Sueno and his exploitative narcotics empire. A tall order, to be sure - but we're here for you. We've compiled general tips, character information, weapon locations, and more in this extensive How to Play Guide. If you take the following information to heart during your first couple of hours in the wilds of South America, you'll be well on your way to establishing order in the chaos of Bolivia.
We saw so many upcoming games this year at E3 that amaze us, and Watch Dogs, the new title from Ubisoft, is no different. The Watch Dogs Wiki is the highlight of this week's New Wiki Monday, which hosts information for and by the Watch Dogs' community. This title will be available for both next and current gen consoles, as well as the Windows platform.
Watch Dogs takes place in an alternative version of Chicago. You play the game as Aiden Pierce, a renegade hacker, who finds would-be victims to rescue them from their attackers and evades the police by hacking into cell phones, super computers and other electronics. Multi-faceted combat includes parkour and stealth, and Watch Dogs has multiplayer elements available, such as trying to hack the main character.

The Division, developed and published by Ubisoft, was announced at this year's E3 and is sure to be one of the big games for next generation consoles. Gamepedia's The Division Wiki is the source for all of the latest information and is the highlight for this week's New Wiki Monday!
Set in the five boroughs of New York City, The Division takes place in a newly post-apocalyptic world, after a deadly disease breaks out on a Black Friday, which cripples the entire United States within five days. Players will be part of the Strategic Homeland Division, with the mission of doing what it takes to save what is left of humanity in this massively multiplayer action shooter with RPG elements. The game allows for co-op, player versus player and player versus AI.
