The year in video games has truly brought something for everyone, whether you’re into cute stories about anthropomorphic mice, psychedelic Tetris, or unnervingly detailed historical role-play in the Old West. Our critics’ top games of the year range from the utter chaos that is Smash Bros Ultimate to the minimalist, calming love story found in Florence, and from Red Dead Redemption 2 and God of War’s stunning realism to Into the Breach and Celeste’s squat, evocative pixel art.
But what did we miss? So many games come out on so many different platforms now that even great ones can sometimes slip under the radar. Or is a game that our critics were lukewarm about your favourite of the year? We’ll run a companion list of our readers’ favourite games of 2018 between Christmas and New Year – but first we need to hear from you.
