Come for the crime drama, stay for the breakdown of various parenting styles.

In 2017, we confronted death, shared secretes, sought comfort, fought for justice, and did our best to look absolutely incredible.

With metal beasts roaming the land, the Keepers of Sun and Moon—Aloy and Thorn—must rise together to face them.

This year, players found secrets, sought redemption, experimented with everything... oh, and played what might be the best non-BioShock BioShock game ever.

The games of 2017 cast us in some odd roles: sibling, space salvager, survivor, and... mortician?

Whether you were running from terrifying, nameless foes or facing them head on, the games of 2017 were all about war, lore, and... good music.

This year saw players commanding troops, exploring labyrinths, flying through the air, going home, and (of course) crying.

This subtle easter egg gives players a whole new reason to explore the soundtrack in every world.

A final farewell tour with a game about authoritarian communism, mining, and matryoshka dolls.

And there's a demo for 'Style Savvy: Styling Star' available now!

With subdued colors and soft piano music, this "magical girl" RPG transports the player to a quiet, relaxing place.

What this early access survival game needs is a shorter burst PVE mode, not to chase the 'PUBG' gold rush.
