This isn’t the category that you want to try out. These games were the most horrific of the year due to several factors. Be it just overhyped, the controversy behind the production, awful gameplay, so many game-breaking bugs that it’s unplayable, or just not delivering what’s promised. The worst game of them all usually delivers on all fronts, and sadly, should be avoided.

Anthem

Anthem was so hyped by BioWare that it was considered the next best thing since Mass Effect. The problem is no knowing what the game even was leading up to launch. After launch the game was void of any gameplay, had very few maps, just wasn’t fun at all, not to mention the abusive work environments that BioWare put its staff through. Anthem being a live service game isn’t even fun to this day after all the changes made and that’s quite an achievement.
