If you are reading this material, then, most likely, a list of those projects that you would like to see on this list have already matured in your brain. But I’ll tell you, this top of the best online PC games in 2020, may surprise you. And yes, as usual, it is worth mentioning that the collection was compiled based on the pure popularity of one product or another, and therefore does not pretend to be the ultimate truth since everyone has a different taste for food, drinks, and entertainment.
So, what are the most interesting and successful online projects of 2020? Of course, many worthy titles have been released during this period, but 5 of them deserve special attention.
Call of Duty: Warzone
Whoever said anything about this Battle Royal, but Warzone was a success. The project has shown excellent results from the first days of its launch and once again proved that even such a conveyor as the game title Call of Duty attracts a lot of attention. And even the overheated battle royal theme has not become obsolete.
What did players like most about Warzone?
- First, the dynamic gameplay inherent in the entire line of this shooter series.
- Secondly, excellent shooting, which migrated straight from Modern Warfare.
- Thirdly, a bunch of unique tactics and mechanics following the example of the Gulag and the ability to rush into a match with pre-created sets of firearms.
Oh yes, the project is free 2 play, which is unusual for Infinity Ward and, in general, Call of Duty series. That’s the whole recipe for success.
Astellia Online
What you will do in the game? Everything is pretty basic, level up the hero, craft gear, fight against mobs and other players. However, here we will also have to control the “Astellas” – the summoned creatures that support the hero in battle. Yes, every character is a summoner here, but this feature sets the project apart from the host of other competitors.
In general, it turned out to be a very useful product, of course, distributed by the f2p model.
Video slots online and other online casino games
Yes, I understand that adding video slots online and other casino games to the top is a very controversial decision. But do not forget that all people have different tastes and there are many fans in the iGaming niche among online game players.
This is why online casino games have become so popular in 2020. Analysts say that such rapid growth was due to quarantine around the world. Many people were left unemployed and mired in financial difficulties, which is why they resorted to the “easy way of making money”, namely playing for money in online casinos in the hope of hitting the big jackpot.
Legends of Runeterra
And this is a full-fledged collectible card game from the Riot Games. Before that, the company’s team was exclusively involved in supporting the MOBA game League of Legends, but now the universe of Runeterra has been expanded, and we will meet even more of its inhabitants.
Why did we include Legends of Runeterra on the list? Well, let’s just say, against the background of the actual monopoly in the person of Hearthstone, it is quite difficult for new players to enter the market. Artifact is a vivid example of this and, although there was a disgusting monetization system, the failure of the project once again showed that gamers are not very interested in regular CCGs. Gwent is an exception and as it turns out, LoR as well.
At the start, the game performed well. Completely free, Legends of Runeterra has beautiful graphics and easy-to-learn gameplay. The project is equally open to both experienced “card players” and to beginners who are just started to comprehend the genre.
In short, Legends of Runeterra deserves to be among our top of the best online PC games in 2020.
Valorant
Another project from Riot Games, but this time in the genre of a first-person shooter. In a nutshell, the game is the fruit of love between CS: GO and Overwatch. In other words, the main features of entertainment are as follows:
- 2 teams of 5 people fight until someone mines the area or destroy their enemies.
- you can use firearms, as well as the unique skills of the heroes (yes, there are different characters with different abilities).
- it is necessary to develop various tactics and moves to surprise the enemy.
Overall, Valorant deserves to be on the list because of the audacity of the developers. The shooter’s accompaniment is also gorgeous – dynamic animated episodes that expand the universe, the lore of the game. All this encourages players to download the shooter and dive into its study. This one is f2p as well.
