Personal Pick
In addition to our main Game of the Year Awards 2025, each member of the PC Gamer team is shining a spotlight on a game they loved this year. We'll post new personal picks each day throughout the rest of the month. You can find them all here.
Over the past 12 months, I've played a total of 32 new games. Not just new to me, but new to market (i.e. they were released in 2025). Admittedly, some of them I only played for a brief while, because I was only doing game performance testing, like Monster Hunter Wilds, but I've sunk over 100 hours in others (mostly Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2). But the one game that really stood out for me is the one game that I really shouldn't like: Grounded 2.
