Intro

Whether you’re new to video games or you’ve been playing them since the Atari days, there are always some new, exciting games to try out. In fact, there are so many great games on the market right now that it can be hard to pick one as your favorite! But we managed to narrow it down to 5 of the best games in the world (right now). Check out our list below and let us know if you agree with our choices!

1. PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

I could probably count on one hand how many games I've played where I've had this much fun, said Brendan Greene, creator of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. I still can't quite believe it! From that sentiment alone, you might guess that this is a game worth trying. But if you're not convinced, consider these top three reasons to give PUBG a try: First, the game offers tons of variety when it comes to playing style and gameplay. Second, PUBG allows you to think tactically and make decisions with anticipation of what's going to happen next. Third, it includes diverse landscapes so every match feels unique!

2. Fortnite

Fortnite is a co-op survival game set on an island with players teaming up to kill monsters and collect resources, or they can work together against human opponents. It's been a hit since its release because it can be played either as a solo adventure or with friends, and it takes less than five minutes to start playing. The game is currently the most-watched title on the live streaming site Twitch and has surpassed Dota 2 and League of Legends for video game viewers. That said, Fortnite is not without flaws: there are reports of cheating during matches, and players from certain regions may find themselves unable to play.

3. Rocket League

Rocket League is a sports-action game that pits teams of rocket-powered cars against each other in a frenetic, high-octane game of soccer. It's one of the best online multiplayer games out there and it's available on PC, PS4, Xbox One, Mac, and Nintendo Switch. Plus, you can play with anyone across different platforms so it's really easy to find an opponent to challenge. This makes for a very interesting strategy because one minute you could be playing soccer and then the next minute someone scores with only three seconds left on the clock. Rocket League is best when played with friends who have equally good reflexes.

4. Overwatch

Overwatch is a team-based multiplayer first-person shooter video game. The game was developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment. Overwatch assigns players into two teams of six, with each player selecting from a roster of over 20 characters, known as heroes, each with a unique style of play, whose roles are divided into four general categories: Offense, Defense, Tank, and Support. Players on a team work together to secure and defend control points on a map or escort a payload across the map in a limited amount of time. An update is released every other week that introduces new heroes, maps, and gameplay modes to increase variety within games.

5. Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege is a first-person shooter game with an overarching theme of Counter-Terrorism. Each player is part of a counter-terrorist team and must work with teammates to coordinate an attack or defense. Players can choose one of many operators and each operator has their own specialties, guns, gadgets, and armor. 

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege is filled with a tactical strategy which makes for some intense gameplay. Plus, there are several different game modes that keep things interesting. There's enough replayability to keep you coming back even if it doesn't seem like the most action-packed game around!
