Game Mode: The Best Video Games Of 2023

2023 was a big year in games.

"The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom" brought a new installment to a beloved series, six years after the last game. It broke sales records and became the best-selling Zelda game to date.

And it wasn't the only blockbuster game this year. Marvel's "Spider-man 2," "Final Fantasy 16," "Diablo 4," and "Super Mario Wonder" were released this year as well. Alongside the blockbusters, the cozy gaming trend brought indie games to the forefront.

But at the 2023 Game Awards, the big winner was "Baldur's Gate 3" — scoring five awards, including game of the year. The role-playing Dungeons & Dragons game was the latest in the series and a huge hit, thanks to its complex story and characters.

What made the year's best games great? What does 2024 have in store for the world of gaming?
