I would appreciate it if you could add Ninja Gaiden 4 to this year's predictions list.

Sure thing, but since it's slated for late in the year I'll just wait and add it at the same time as the Nintendo games announced on April 2.

(you can predict it now if you really want to though)

Been enjoying Avowed alot. So far its heavily underrated.

MH Wilds at 89 after 72 reviews, a bunch of reviews are saying the game feels like it lacks any challenge

First reviews are in for Monster Hunter Wilds which is sitting at 89 with exactly 100 reviews atm, pretty close to what most predicted and ofc quite impressive.

Fable removed due to the delay to 2026

Changing Pokémon Legends Z-A -> 80

Changing my own Clair Obscur prediction to 93

Well Split Fiction turns out to be the year's biggest critical succes so far at 91, a game I considered including but ultimately decided against as I didn't really see much excitement for it, whoops.

That seems to be a normal thing for Hazelight games for whatever reason. It Takes Two was critically very well received, has sold over 23 million and even won GOTY but there wasn't that much excitement for it leading up to its release. With this being even more critically well received safe to say they're the new gods at making co-op games and are probably one of the best game studios out there in general now. It Takes Two is one of my favourite games ever so I'm hyped to play this.
