I have a finalized list! Time for some honorable mentions:
Astral Chain: I haven't finished it yet which is why I'm not ranking it officially yet but I'm very impressed by the game so far! The combat is excellent and the cop simulator aspects are great as well which is a bit of a surprise. Running with the beast Legion can be frustrating at times though.
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening: Stellar remake, gets rid of all the bad things about the GameBoy version, looks amazing and provides a solid Zelda experience. Wish it was a bit longer though.
God of War (2018): I was sceptical of the new angle at first but it turned out really great. The combat while very different is fun and varied, the set pieces are stunning and the RPG elements are a welcome addition to the series. I do feel it has lackluster boss fights though.
Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night: Castlevania sequel in disguise, it's a great Metroidvania and I'm glad I backed it on Kickstarted way back in the 19th century. It is rough around the edges but it also filled with stuff to do and things to find! Gotta kill those murderers DEAD!
Signature goes here!
