I've only played two and one of those was briefly.

Doom Eternal for about 8 hours
World of Warcraft for about 50% of my life.

So WoW has to be.

To be honest my 4 year old gaming laptop struggles with some of the newer games, last one I played was Cyberpunk 2077 and I think that was released in 2020.

It Takes Two for me. Sadly only available to play with 2 players, but I had the most fun with this. Been a while since I played something that enjoyable and original which kept me hooked all the way. Plenty of laughs too.

Of the games released this year, the only one I've properly played is Tony Hawks 1+2 remake.

It is excellent to be fair.

Hades was the best game I played this year though.

Just seen that Tony Hawks was released 2020. So that doesn't qualify.

Not a great year for games was it.

Forza Horizon 5 for me.

Enjoyed Ratchet and Clank rift apart, and haven't finished it takes two and Deathloop which are both good, but I usually play games a year behind, so my other favourite games of the year (FF7 remake, Last of Us 2 and Assassin's Creed Valhalla) are from 2020

As already mentioned 2021 was a bit rubbish for games.
The only one I really got into is Halo Infinite so that gets my vote

I've recently just picked these up but am yet to play as I've been suckered back into No Man's Sky.

The title I played most in 2021 was Valheim (PC).
