Another year of games has come and gone. 2018 brought us highly anticipated blockbusters and a brilliant lineup of indie titles, many of which delivered as promised while others proved to be disappointments. Fortunately, 2018's slate of games left us with more smiles than regrets.
We witnessed exemplary artistry from studios who worked tirelessly to see their visions through as well as epic storytelling. From an unforgettable Wild West adventure to a powerful tale of father and son, the best games of 2018 proved once again that there's an art to making video games that should be acknowledged and celebrated.
As Den of Geek says goodbye to another year and begins to look forward to 2019, we're taking a look back at the best games we played in 2018. This year's list is made up of a diverse mix of titles, both AAA and indie. We picked 10 games that weren't only critical darlings but also ones that we kept coming back to way after their review deadlines.
