Street Fighter 6
Capcom just released Street Fighter 6 this June, and it’s a big improvement for the series and fighting games in general. Although the starting lineup has 18 characters, which is a bit small, it includes both familiar faces with new looks and interesting new characters like the ninja Kimberly and breakdancer Jamie.
You get to customize your World Tour fighter using these characters and then play against others online with a good netcode (connection quality). If you lose, it’s your fault, not the game’s. There’s an amazing new feature called the Drive System, which adds some risk and reward strategies to the game.
Overall, Street Fighter 6 is one of the best games of 2023 that will make fans of fighting games happy for a long time.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
Spider-Man 2 for the PS5 is another one on the list of best games of 2023 and is just on another level. The game looks amazing, plays smoothly, and even uses the cool adaptive triggers on the controller. It’s the same as if you’re Spider-Man swinging through the city.
The story is super interesting and different from other superhero games. Spider-Man and Miles face tough challenges. The graphics are stunning, especially on the PS5. Insomniac Games did a great job of making New York City feel real. They added cool characters like Kraven The Hunter and Venom, making the story more intense.
Swinging around the city feels more natural, and the web wings make it even cooler. If you love Spider-Man, this game is a must-play. It captures the true hero vibe.
Diablo 4
Imagine you’re stuck in a messy and creepy situation in Diablo IV, surrounded by a bunch of really hungry and evil creatures. But guess what? It’s super exciting. After 11 years of waiting, Blizzard has brought back their action RPG series in a big way. Now, the main goal is to track down Lilith, the Daughter of Hatred.
But here’s the thing – the game is not just about that. It’s like a huge world filled with lots of extra tasks, interesting characters, and cool stories that pop up unexpectedly.
You might start playing with one goal in mind, but you end up wandering around doing other stuff for hours. And the best part? You get to create your character in many different ways and collect tons of cool stuff from all the monsters you defeat. It’s like a never-ending adventure in the dark and thrilling world of Diablo IV.
Super Mario Bros. Wonder
You are probably thinking that the Super Mario game’s hype is over. No, it’s not yet. Even though some people might think Mario games are not as exciting as before, Wonder proves them wrong and is indeed one of the best games of 2023. It’s a game for the Nintendo Switch, and people who have it should check it out.
What’s cool about Wonder is that it takes inspiration from two things: Super Mario Maker, where players can make their own Mario levels, and The Super Mario Bros. movie, which had some wild ideas. In Wonder, there’s a new thing called Wonder Seeds. When Mario grabs these, it changes the levels. Like, Mario can turn into an elephant, and pipes start shooting water everywhere. It’s like a crazy remix of the levels.
Playing as Mario and his friends feel great, and there are these awesome new powers that make the game super fun. The levels are designed well, and everything, from how it looks to how it sounds, is done by game developers who know their stuff because they’ve been doing it for a long time. So, if you have a Switch, you should give Wonder a try.
Baldur’s Gate 3
The GOAT (greatest of all time, at least in 2023) Baldur’s Gate 3 is a really popular game that many people are talking about. It’s a huge role-playing adventure that is one of the best games of 2023. It received the prestigious Game of the Year award at TGA 2023 and Larian Studio received a total of 6 trophies at the event.
Right now, you can only play it on the new PlayStation 5. The game is special because your choices in the game matter, and it makes you feel like you’re part of the story.
If you’ve played other games by Larian or if you’re into Dungeons & Dragons, you’ll feel at home with the combat and magic in Baldur’s Gate 3. People are still talking about it and sharing fan art on social media even though it came out in August. Larian, the company that made the game, has set a new standard for role-playing games. It’s a big deal in the gaming world.
That brings us to the end of our Best Games of 2023 list. However, do keep in mind that these are the writer’s preferences, and your list of best games of 2023 might be entirely different.
