GamesBeat’s 2022 games of the year

As we reach the end of 2022, it’s time to look back at our favorite games of the year. This was an interesting one. Sure, we still had some big triple-A experiences that captured our attention, but 2022 also had a large amount of indies and other smaller games to pick up the slack.

Our picks, which the GamesBeat editorial team decided together, represents games from a multitude of genres and platforms. We had to cut some personal favorites to keep the list at 10, but we all feel good about getting to highlight these wonderful titles.
