Winner: Shin Megami Tensei DRAW
It is a long time coming. Fans had to wait a while for Shin Megami Tensei DRAW, so expectations are very high. So met them as good as it did? That is a huge achievement. It’s a signature SMT game, with punitive difficulty and devil riches to fight and merge. It could be a breakout moment for the franchise, garnering the political attention it’s long awaited. Congratulations, SMT DRAW: you are Siliconera’s Game of the Year 2021.
Tales of Arise
It’s a new beginning for Stories Franchising! Arise looks just as good as the series played, and clever attempts to modernize the system allow you to get more immersed in the story without too much of a hitch. The best is Stories it’s been a long, long time and it deserves to be a Game of the Year finalist.
Monster Hunter Rise
Rise To be The return, the return classic Monster Hunter recipe. In doing so, it can build on all the work of the game’s previous decades, delivering iterative improvements that longtime fans really appreciate.
