PC really struggled for exclusive games this year as it received mostly console ports and bad indie games. The exclusives that were available offered unique experiences you can only get on PC. This year proved to everyone that the PC is where every genre melds and graphics are pushed to their limits.

Total War: Warhammer

The Total War series has always defined the PC as the go-to system for strategists. It’s an experience you can’t get on consoles, and with the Warhammer license, it’s a perfect marriage. Warhammer allows us to battle our favorite Warhammer factions together in massive epic battles with fantastic visuals and plenty of extra content. Even if you aren’t a Warhammer fan, there’s something in here for the strategist in you.
