hello world!

Gaming has taken a whole new level now as it becomes available to the masses with digital downloads. You can look to play on your phone with games like Pokemon Go, tablet, or game consoles and enjoy gameplay on or offline and it is a lot of fun. Many adults choose to play games as a way of destressing; for kids, it is the virtual playdate. But what are the best digital games that you can play this year? Here are some of the recommended games that you have to try. 

Fortnite

This is by far one of the most popular games that you can play online. Whether playing for yourself or as part of a team, the nature of the game is to win the battle royale by being the last man or team standing. It is full of fun as the seasons change regularly and many updates keep the audience entertained. It is a great way to play with friends online as you can be on the same team as well as play against each other. 

Apex Legends

This has taken on a similar platform to Fortnite and is a great way to play with friends online. You are part of a team or playing for yourself as you pick off different opponents and become the last man standing. This is similar to Fortnite but appeals to adults as it has different graphics and themes. The seasons and updates may not be as frequent but it is a great digital download game to play. 

Lethal Company

If you are looking for a strategy game that will get the adrenaline going then this is the game for you. You may want to look online so that you can get insider knowledge on things such as the Lethal Company bestiary guide. These online guides can help you to be more aware of how much you can strategize within the game. 

Minecraft

This is one of those games that gives and gives. You can play online games that have been created within the virtual worlds, explore different realms and serves, and also create your own world. You can do this by yourself or with friends online. There is no end game with Minecraft. You can just keep on building and exploring. Perfect for younger kids but teens and adults enjoy it as well. 

Among Us

Finding out who is the one among you who is the traitor is the aim of the game with this one. It is a digital game that took the world by storm and many younger kids and young adults enjoyed playing it with their friends. 

Rocket League

If you love football and car games then this is the perfect blend of the two. You are in control of the car that then has to control the ball to score goals against your opponent. 

Roblox 

This is mostly aimed at a younger audience but there are plenty of games that will appeal to the masses. Roblox is a series of serve games that you play online with friends that could involve anything from being chased by a pig to running a pizza restaurant. The options are endless on the Roblox app and it can be played on a variety of consoles. 

Let’s hope this has given you some inspiration for some of the best digital games you can play this year.
