The best selling games of 2019

---

FIFA 20

EA’s yearly sports game entries all performed well this year, but FIFA 20 has proven to be a particularly success. The game has topped sales charts for nine weeks since it launched, and is still selling strong against some incredibly tough competition in the form of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

Astral Chain

One of the first big third-party games built for Nintendo Switch, Astral Chain comes from developers PlatinumGames, who have created something truly special and unique for all Switch fans.

Borderlands 3

The third mainline Borderlands game has proven to be the most successful of them all. The game boasts a number of worlds to explore, and a loot system that includes more guns that it’s possible for players to earn. The game has seen a couple of DLC releases in 2019, with more planned from Gearbox in 2020.

Gears 5

After the lukewarm reception that Gears of War 4 received, Gears 5 is a welcome change. The Coalition took over the series with the last entry, but have really come into their own with this game. Fans of the series are really enjoying where Gears 5 has taken the universe and multiplayer, even though consumers on a wider level thought less of it.

The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening

The remake of The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening completely reimagines the game’s world with brand new visuals. New Nintendo twists on the game have also helped make it something fresh for Zelda fans to enjoy, as well as an incredible experience for those new to the franchise.

Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint

Even though greatly anticipated, Breakpoint received a very poor welcome from both fans and consumers in general. The game was plagued with bugs at launch, and felt as if it was rushed, a pale comparison of the previous game, Wildlands. However, Uisoft has improved the game since then, and it’s closer than ever to being the game that fans want it to be, with a number of in-game events every quarter.

Ring Fit Adventure

Nintendo’s upgrade of Wii Fit for the Nintendo Switch, Ring Fit Adventure is a physical-only release due to the game’s unique peripherals. The game uses sport and exercise as a form of progression, bringing a much more effective way to get people into being active than most other games on the market.

The Outer Worlds

Obsidian Entertainment’s most anticipated game of the year, The Outer Worlds takes players to space in a sci-fi version of Fallout 76. Those who have played the game love it dearly, but it failed to hit home with some people, causing a very mixed reception despite the game’s overall quality.
