We all have our favorite character that has either been around for 25 years or 2 years. Very few games can make an impactful character that’s iconic and becomes the face of gaming. The likes of Mario, Link, Samus, Sub-Zero, and Master Chief from yesteryears to Lara Croft, Gordon Freeman, Marcus Fenix, and Mega Man. This year had some of the best new characters in nearly a decade.
Entire Cast (Overwatch)
Overwatch’s entire ensemble is just bursting at the seams with personality and they are by far some of the most iconic characters in the last decade. From Widowmaker’s sniper rifle and purple armor to Mei’s fluffy snowsuit and glasses. Bastion’s unique personality and Tracer’s stances and yellow suit. There is so much personality and love in Overwatch that’s it’s hard to not find a favorite character.
