This major update includes significant changes to all character classes, introduces the new Devourer Demon Hunter, adds a built-in damage meter, and revamps the transmog system, among other improvements. A week later, on January 27th, two events – Winds of Mysterious Fortune and Twilight Ascension – will begin and run until the official Midnight expansion launch on March 2nd.

Here are a few other great games that didn’t quite make our top ten, but are still worth mentioning. These standout titles from 2010 represent a variety of genres and are now widely considered classic games.

Last year saw many excellent games, but Astro Bot really stood out. It cleverly combined the charm of old-school platformers with smooth, up-to-date controls and gameplay. The cute Astro character has quickly become a symbol of the PlayStation 5, and the game’s joyful energy and exciting levels earned it the title of Game of the Year at the 2024 Game Awards. Since launching as a PS5 exclusive, the game has been enhanced with several free updates, including a particularly well-received Christmas-themed level called Winter Wonder.

This list isn’t just about life simulation games; it also features role-playing and action-adventure titles that let you immerse yourself in a world, make meaningful decisions, and create a unique, personal experience.

The original Spyro the Dragon game came out on PlayStation in September 1998. It was followed by two sequels, Spyro 2: Ripto’s Rage in 1999 and Spyro: Year of the Dragon in 2000. Insomniac Games first developed the Spyro games, but other studios like Eurocom and Krome Studios also contributed to the series throughout the 2000s. More recently, Toys for Bob took over in 2018, and they’ve released Spyro Reignited Trilogy, Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time, and Crash Team Rumble. Most Spyro games are 3D platformers where players control the purple dragon as he glides, charges through levels, and breathes fire at enemies. Spyro is a beloved PlayStation character, remembered alongside other icons like Crash Bandicoot.

Steam has a lot of open-world survival games where you build and craft things. Popular titles like No Man’s Sky, Subnautica, and Rust are well-known, but Green Hell is a fantastic game that hasn’t always gotten the recognition it deserves. Thankfully, that’s changing, and more and more people are discovering Green Hell on Steam.

I watched as the My Hero Academia anime began back in 2016, and just recently finished in 2025. For nearly a decade, Studio Bones animated the series, and it really felt like their most important new project. It seemed like a huge undertaking for them, and many fans agreed.
