The Last of Us Part II<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Last of Us is considered one of the best video game tales ever created, so the storytellers at Naughty Dog had a tough act to follow. That\u2019s what makes this ambitious, nuanced, and subversive sequel even more impressive. From old obsessions that possess Ellie, to newcomer Abby working through her own issues, The Last of Us Part II is compelling from beginning to end. Credit also goes to the masters of storytelling at Sucker Punch, Insomniac, and Square Enix.<\/p>\n

From the scraping sensation of skating across ice, to detecting subtle pit-pats of rain on an umbrella, to feeling the resistance of a coiled spring, Astro\u2019s Playroom put the DualSense wireless controller to work. Voters noticed in a big way, earning the game a Platinum trophy. Marvel\u2019s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, and Demon\u2019s Souls round out the winners with Gold, Silver and Bronze trophies respectively.<\/p>\n

Accessibility in games has always been important, but teams like Naughty Dog, Sucker Punch, Insomniac, and Ubisoft built in new features this year that ensure their games can be played by as many gamers as possible. Congrats not only to these winners, but also to everyone who is able to enjoy these titles as a result of the teams’ efforts here.<\/p>\n

The Last of Us Part II<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Naughty Dog is renowned for creating games with a mesmerizing level of detail, and The Last of Us Part II is the team\u2019s most technically impressive feat yet. Swivel the camera around while Ellie grapples with an enemy, and you\u2019ll see her grimacing with effort. Position Abby next to a steep ledge and experience her wobbly tunnel vision as acrophobia settles in. 2020 was a great year for stunning games, including interpretations of ancient Japan, Marvel\u2019s New York City, and the dark fantasy world of Boletaria.<\/p>\n

From that<\/em> title drop sequence to the twisted reimagining of its world with the Legends multiplayer mode, Ghost of Tsushima demanded frequent use of its Photo Mode.

The Last of Us Part II snags yet another Platinum Trophy in our GOTY Awards. Yet all four winners here highlighted the diversity of this year\u2019s soundtracks, perfectly capturing the soundscape of historical adventures, modern day heroics, near-future horrors and fantastical cities. Whether propelling the on-screen action or being enjoyed in isolation, these scores were worth putting on repeat. <\/p>\n
