What is an action game? Any game with action can be considered, but in my opinion, these are action/adventure games or games that are cinematic and full of flash and adrenaline-packed adventure.

Nier: Automata

NieR was the best action game this year because it was something new and fresh. While it wasn’t the most technically impressive game out there, the action was phenomenal with fast-moving characters and fluid combat against interesting enemies. It’s a weird one-of-a-kind game that we rarely get to see.

This was a decent year for the PS4. With many older exclusive franchises being remastered for the system, plus some great new exclusives, the PS4 stood out from the rest. I would feel comfortable saying this is by far the best year for the system.

Horizon: Zero Dawn

Horizon wasn’t just a great open-world game, it was one of the best ever created. Guerilla Games really pushed themselves by creating a beautiful post-apocalyptic world with characters we can care about. The gameplay is fun, challenging, and varied which makes you think before attacking. It’s the type of game that makes you think “PlayStation”.
