Assassin’s Creed Valhallais the final game in this series to adopt the same open-world RPG approach asOriginsandOdyssey. This means that a player’s experience with this title will be influenced by how much they enjoy this formula.
If players love theWitcher-esque approach of thisAssassin’s Creedgame, then they’ll be rewarded witha rich and engaging open-world titlethat is full of action-packed moments and fun exploration. Fans had been clamoring for a Viking-themedAssassin’s Creedgame for the longest time, and it’s clear whyValhallahas so many players that ardently defend it as a result.
The collaboration betweenMarioandRabbidsfelt like it came out of nowhere back whenKingdom Battlewas announced. The quality of the first game surprised many fans, who were glad to see thatMario + Rabbids Sparks of Hopedid justice to the brilliance of its predecessor.
The combat of this game feels polished, and the first game’s charm remains intact, making for an excellent tactical action game for Switch owners. Hopefully, the Switch 2 will be graced with more games emerging from this fruitful collaboration.
While fans wanted a fully-fledgedPrince of Persiagame after the franchise’s lengthy hiatus, the quality ofThe Last Crown’sside-scrolling action surprised many players. It helped thatthe game’s art designand smooth combat elevated the fun factor of this title considerably.
While it may be odd that players don’t control the Prince of Persia himself, Sargon is a great protagonist who is as charming as they come. With great exploration and storytelling,The Lost Crownis easily one of Ubisoft’s most underappreciated titles in the 2020s that more fans need to check out.
After the success ofThe Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Ubisoft decided to capitalize on this formula with the release ofImmortals Fenyx Rising. They combined the visual esthetics ofBotWwith their open-world formula to make a fun action-adventure title that fans will have a great time with.
What will really surprise players is the game’s script, which is full of genuinely hilarious dialogue that enhances the title’s charm. This,coupled with some fun combatand engaging puzzles, ensures thatImmortals Fenyx Risingwill stand out in the eyes of many despite its reliance on the tiresome open-world structure present in most Ubisoft games.
TrackManiais a great example of how promoting community content can enhance a game’s staying power. The racing gameplay is fun in its own right, but it’s the fan-made maps that have helpedTrackManiabecome more mainstream than ever.
From wild levels that challenge the player’s skill to unique stages where all players need to do is hold the accelerate button to reach the end, the creativity ofTrackMania’s community has helped this game stand out as one of Ubisoft’s best offerings of the 2020s.
Assassin’s Creed Shadowsis arguably the most important Ubisoft gameof the modern era, especially given the string of failures they endured before this point. Naoe and Yasuke’s adventures are a joy to play through, even if the narrative itself isn’t all that engaging for some fans.
While powering through combat scenarios as Yasuke is fun in its own way, players who want the fullAssassin’s Creedexperience should go through the bulk of the game as Naoe. The stealth and combat shine when players control her, with exploration being quite relaxing and adding to the game’s quality.
The Crewis one of Ubisoft’s best franchises and it keeps fans coming back for more. The launch ofMotorfestcemented the brilliance of this franchise, with players loving the responsive controls and updated physics models of this game.
The Crew Motorfestis a must-play for fans of quality racing titles, with the visuals wowing players time and time again. Given howThe Crewgames are updated with a ton of contentfollowing their release, fans can’t wait forMotorfestto get better and better with time.
Tom Clancy’s The Divisionwas a decent title, but there’s no denying that fans were positively whelmed when it came out. While it eventually improved after numerous updates, players knew that this game needed a sequel with numerous improvements to wow the masses.
This was achieved withThe Division 2, which was a massive improvement over its predecessor and let players enjoy some quality gunplay. The lack of bullet sponge enemies, the massive amount of content at launch, and the action-packed mission structure ensured that players would have a great time from the very moment they boughtThe Division 2instead of having to rely on updates to salvage the experience once again.
