The Best Games We Played In 2025 | A Year of Nightmares, Legends & Clair Obscur Memes

2025 was a wild, beautiful, terrifying year for gaming—and this video is a full retrospective of the games we played this year. From mind-bending horror to unforgettable story-driven adventures, we’re looking back at the titles that kept us up at night and glued to our screens.

This recap features standout experiences like SOMA, Layers of Fear, Bloodborne, Resident Evil 3 & 4 Remake, and the haunting Bye Sweet Carole, alongside massive releases and surprises including Dragon Age: The Veilguard, Avowed, Black Myth: Wukong, Monster Hunter Wilds, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, and Destiny 2: Edge of Fate and Renegades. We also revisit classics and remasters like Firewatch, Battlefield 3, and Elder Scrolls: Oblivion Remastered, plus genre-spanning hits like The Outer Worlds 2, Super Mario 3D World, and Pokémon Z-A.

The crown jewel of the year goes to Claire Obscur: Expedition 33, my personal Game of the Year, and a perfect example of how bold, artistic games thrived in 2025.

With 2026 already looking stacked with new horror and story-driven experiences, this video is both a celebration of what we played and a launchpad for what’s coming next. Thanks for being part of the journey this year—see you in the new one, and sleep lightly. 🎮👁️‍🗨️
