The Verge’s Ten Best Video Games of 2019

It’s never easy narrowing down a list of the best games of the year, but 2019 seemed particularly difficult for the editors at The Verge. There wasn’t a single blockbuster that dominated the conversation, but that doesn’t mean it was a bad year for games — in fact, the depth and breadth of titles was impressive. During the voting process, The Verge staff called out forty-five different games as ranking among their favorites.  So, after a lot of discussion (some apparently got a little heated) they managed to whittle that down to the Ten Best Video Games of the Year.

Here is their list (in no particular order):

Baba Is You

Control

Devil May Cry 5

Fire Emblem: Three Houses

The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening

Outer Wilds

Pokémon Sword and Shield

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

Telling Lies

Untitled Goose Game
