10 Awesome Video Games You've Missed In 2020 (So Far)

6. Ori & The Will Of The Wisps

Ori and the Will of the Wisps is, hands down, one of the most beautiful gaming experiences of the last few years, a gorgeous and addictive follow-up to Ori and the Blind Forest which improves upon it in practically every way.

An at once accessible yet challenging stab at the Metroidvania formula, this sequel combines world-class platforming gameplay with deliciously satisfying combat and exploration, not to ignore its eye-wateringly gorgeous art style and ethereal musical score.

By reducing the original game's punishing difficulty somewhat and elevating the subtle emotion of its sparse story, this is one of the most affecting video games of the year, and a sure-fire masterpiece in its own right.

Best of all, you can play it for a pittance as part of Xbox Game Pass, so you've got no excuse not to give it a try.
