Late to the thread, but I took some days contemplating in order to not fall prey to the recency bias for what I played during the christmas break.
So my personal GotY list for 2025 is:
1. Borderlands 4 (playtime 183 hours)
2. Metroid Prime 4 (playtime roughly 30 hours)
3. Blue Prince (playtime 30 hours)
4. Tears of the Kingdom [first time played 2025] (playtime roughly 60 hours)
5. Keeper (playtime 5,5 hours)
Honorable mentions: Doom the Dark Ages (playtime 34,5 hours) & Donkey Kong Bananza (playtime roughly 30 hours)
