PC Gamer January 2021 Issue 352

This month we’ve taken an exclusive delve into the sprawling mega-city and pestilent underhive of Darktide, a brutal co-op action game set in the grim Warhammer 40,000 universe and developed by the creators of the excellent Vermintide series. What lessons have the team learned over five years of Skaven-slaying? How does their unique take on melee combat translate into the bleak sci-fi future? And what dark forces will be arrayed against you? Find out all that and more in our huge cover feature.

It’s also time for our definitive Game of the Year awards for 2020. From the Best RPG to the Best FPS, we’ve rounded up the absolute greatest games of the last 12 months and celebrated them accordingly. And, of course, we’ve decided our ultimate game of the year, revered above all others – and we think you’ll be surprised by our pick…

Plus we’ve investigated the technology that could link our minds to computers; discovered an MMO so unique it could change how you think about the genre forever; continued our quest to bring justice and civility to the back-stabbing world of Crusader Kings III; reviewed the month’s hottest games, from Assassin’s Creed Valhalla to Yakuza: Like a Dragon; and much, much more.

Enjoy your issue!
