We prefer to stay impartial on the matter, but there’s no denying that the device had some <i>amazing </i>titles. Keep on scrolling as we talk you through the best PS Vita games ever made, from the console's conception to the present. Read on and see if you agree with us!</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidorc}}</p><h2 id=\"our-definitive-list-of-the-best-ps-vita-games\">Our Definitive List of the Best PS Vita Games</h2><p>If you have a PS Vita, are looking to buy one, or simply want to reminisce, you should definitely know the titles below, as we humbly believe them to be the best games ever made for this console. Some of these will go down in history and there’s a chance they could be revisited on future platforms, so our advice would be to make a mental (or any other kind of) note of them. Here goes:</p><h3 id=\"1.-persona-4-golden\">1. Persona 4 Golden</h3><p>2012’s Persona 4 Golden is one of the most critically acclaimed offerings on the PS Vita and easily goes down among its best games ever. The RPG involves battling dark forces in a small town while also trying to balance school life. Just the typical life of a teenager, right? It received a score of 9.3/10 from IGN, thanks to its deep characters and detailed combat.</p><h3 id=\"2.-uncharted:-golden-abyss\">2. Uncharted: Golden Abyss</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"uncharted:-golden-abyss\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/YHDezyb6vhk\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Every gamer worth their salt has played the Uncharted series on consoles. If you haven’t, may we politely ask <i>why</i>? Anyway, if you’re looking for a scaled-down version of that title, Uncharted: Golden Abyss is a great prequel to the main series. It earned a score of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-vita/uncharted-golden-abyss\" rel=\"nofollow\">80 on Metacritic</a> and captured the essence of the other Nathan Drake-led games well.</p><h3 id=\"3.-gravity-rush\">3. Gravity Rush</h3><p>According to GamesRadar, Gravity Rush is easily among the best PS Vita games. The esteemed publication gave the title a score of 4.5 out of 5 and commended its innovative gameplay. The 2012 offering from SCE Japan Studio is an action-adventure in which you control a woman with the power to manipulate gravity.</p><h3 id=\"4.-tearaway\">4. Tearaway</h3><p>We just love games with completely unique concepts, and Tearaway falls into that category thanks to its original paper-crafted world. The 2013 Media Molecule game was rated 3.5 stars out of 4 by USA Today and was praised for its imaginative features. </p><h3 id=\"5.-danganronpa-series\">5. Danganronpa Series</h3><p>If you’re someone who loves it when your choices influence the story, the Danganronpa Series will be right up your street. The offerings from Spike Chunsoft are visual novel games known for their gripping narratives. IGN has rated some of the titles as high as 8.5/10, thanks to their memorable characters and gameplay. They can easily be classed among the best PS Vita games ever.</p><h3 id=\"6.-killzone:-mercenary\">6. Killzone: Mercenary</h3><p>For players in search of one of the best FPS games on PS Vita, Killzone: Mercenary is unmissable. The 2013 offering from Guerrilla Cambridge tasks players with having to survive a conflict between the ISA and Helghast forces. If you're unsure as to <a href=\"/en/games/genre/survival-games/\">what classifies as a survival game</a>, this one is probably the closest you’ll get to that genre on the device.</p><h3 id=\"7.-spelunky\">7. Spelunky</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"spelunky\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/n50JIBBwcbM\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>The PS Vita had some truly impressive titles, and Spelunky is an example of how developers would often push its limits. The 2013 Mossmouth game with an 87 Metacritic rating had procedurally generated levels, meaning that players could keep coming back for unique gameplay every time.</p><h3 id=\"8.-super-stardust-delta\">8. Super Stardust Delta</h3><p>Some of the best Vita titles were the ones that kept things simple, and 2011’s Super Stardust Delta from Housemarque was in that bracket. The 9/10 IGN-rated offering was a twin-stick shooter with quick action gameplay.</p><h3 id=\"9.-rayman-legends\">9. Rayman Legends</h3><p>Rayman has been around in the gaming industry for years, and the handheld option is one of the best PS Vita games. The visually pleasing platformer from Ubisoft Montpellier is just as enjoyable on the smaller screen as it is on consoles.</p><h3 id=\"10.-metal-gear-solid-hd-collection\">10. Metal Gear Solid HD Collection</h3><p>Metal Gear Solid games have dominated the gaming industry for decades, and the 2012 collection for the PS Vita was awesome. It was basically a greatest-hits version of the espionage franchise from Kojima Productions.</p><h3 id=\"11.-soul-sacrifice\">11. Soul Sacrifice</h3><p>There were a few great action RPGs for PS Vita, and Soul Sacrifice was a memorable one. The 2013 Marvelous AQL game had engaging combat and was lauded by GamesRadar as a fresh take on the genre.</p><h3 id=\"12.-child-of-light\">12. Child of Light</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"child-of-light\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/PaxrIFlc6E4\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>You don’t necessarily need a top-spec console for a beautifully crafted RPG, and Ubisoft Montreal proved that with Child of Light in 2014. The emotionally impactful offering achieved a high rating across all publications, and we regard it as a simply must-play title – it’s one of the best games for the Vita device, hands down.</p><h3 id=\"13.-dragons-crown\">13. Dragon's Crown</h3><p>There are only three games left on this list and it seems we’ve forgotten to include any beat ‘em ups – so, here you go. Vanillaware’s Dragon’s Crown in 2013 was a cool side-scrolling fighting game with awesome hand-drawn artwork.</p><h3 id=\"14.-muramasa-rebirth\">14. Muramasa Rebirth</h3><p>Vanillaware made some of the best PS Vita games around, and Muramasa Rebirth was another strong title. This was a 2D action RPG remembered for its eye-catching visuals and in-depth storytelling. If you love mythical Japanese worlds, this one’s for you.</p><h3 id=\"15.-hotline-miami\">15. Hotline Miami</h3><p>Last but not least on this list is Hotline Miami, a 2013 title from Dennaton Games that was awarded 9/10 from IGN. The top-down shooter was loved for its fast-paced nature and surreal narrative. If you like a challenge, then this one’s definitely for you!</p><h2 id=\"is-ps-vita-better-than-the-nintendo-switch?\">Is PS Vita Better than the Nintendo Switch?</h2><p>One of the greatest - or plain out heated - debates of the last decade was whether the PS Vita was better than the Nintendo Switch. This comes down to a matter of <i>opinion</i>, as they both have their strengths and weaknesses. You could argue, though, that average games on Vita are superior to the top offerings on the Switch…</p><h2 id=\"is-the-playstation-vita-discontinued?\">Is the PlayStation Vita Discontinued?</h2><p>This is somewhat of a nostalgic blog, as the PS Vita was discontinued in 2019. However, you can still pick up the device and many of its games from specialist gaming stores around the world.</p><h3 id=\"can-you-play-these-ps-vita-games-now?\">Can You Play These PS Vita Games Now?</h3><p>If you have a PS Vita, you can still find many of these titles and play them. However, if you don’t, there are some <a href=\"/en/blog/game-emulators/\">emulators </a>that allow you to access these games on your computer (it might also be helpful to read our handy guide on <a href=\"/en/games/platform/html5-games/\">how to play HTML5</a> games).

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (2017)</h3><p>The release of a Nintendo console wouldn't be complete without the appearance of either Mario or Link. Breath of the Wild was the first new title in the series to be released for a full console since Skyward Sword on the Wii in 2011 and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/en/finance/software/index.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">went on to sell 30.65 million copies</a> to date.</p><p>This game was an absolute masterpiece. From traversing up snowy mountains to galloping across desert plains and gliding through the air, the game world was so big, and many people have still yet to explore it all six years after its release.</p><h3 id=\"super-mario-odyssey-(2017)\">2. Super Mario Odyssey (2017)</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"super-mario-odyssey-(2017)\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/Wef0OjBuOTc\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>As with the appearance of Link, the launch of a Nintendo console wouldn't be complete without one of the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://fullsync.co.uk/iconic-video-game-characters/\" rel=\"nofollow\">most iconic video game characters</a> of all time. Mario.</p><p>This 3D Mario platformer was praised for its inventive levels, fun mechanics like the ability to control various creatures with Mario's hat, and its engaging exploration elements. To this day, it has sold in excess of 26 million copies across the globe.</p><h3 id=\"animal-crossing:-new-horizons-(2020)\">3. Animal Crossing: New Horizons (2020)</h3><p>Another popular Nintendo Switch game series.

You can go fishing, collect bugs, grow crops, explore friends’ islands, and more.</p><h3 id=\"super-smash-bros.-ultimate-(2018)\">4. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (2018)</h3><p>This crossover fighting game included a massive roster of characters from various gaming franchises, making it a favorite for both casual and competitive players. However, despite gamers wanting a Smash Bros. title when the Switch was released, it wasn't until the following year that they would get their hands on it.</p><p>And despite its popularity, selling 31.77 million copies, it did come under some criticism. This is because Nintendo fell into what many consider a greed trap, where much of the game's content was locked behind DLC (downloadable content) paywalls.</p><h3 id=\"mario-kart-8-deluxe-(2017)\">5. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (2017)</h3><p>This one wasn't really a new title. It was an enhanced port of the Wii U game, but it didn't stop this racing title from becoming one of the best-selling games on the Switch with 55.46 million copies sold. It was lauded for its fun tracks, tight controls, and enjoyable multiplayer experience.</p><p>There were many other fantastic games released for the Switch during this period. Some honorable mentions include Super Mario Party, and Pokémon Sword and Shield.</p><h2 id=\"5-best-nintendo-switch-games-of-2023\">5 Best Nintendo Switch Games of 2023</h2><p>2023 has been a very good year for the Switch.

Pikmin 4</h3><p>A game that is probably designed for children but also enjoyed by adults as well, Pikmin 4 is the latest installment of the series. The last entry came out ten years ago, and this new game keeps the same fun with its real-time strategy elements but enhances the experience by introducing the ability to customize your character.</p><h3 id=\"cassette-beasts\">3. Cassette Beasts</h3><p>Released in April, this indie game grew quite a following quickly. It is inspired by the Pokémon franchise but offers its own take on collecting and battling monsters.</p><p>What makes this game stand out the most is how much more complex and challenging it is, being more tailored to older gamers, whereas Pokémon has been criticized for being aimed more at children.</p><h3 id=\"metroid-prime-remastered\">4. Metroid Prime Remastered</h3><p>While many people have been calling for a new Metroid Prime game for years, sadly it hasn't arrived. But what has been delivered is a remaster of an older title that still managed to win over gamers and critics alike, with press outlets like Nintendo Life scoring it a massive 10/10.</p><p>This brought the classic title into the modern world for a whole new audience. It has impressed with its combination of first-person shooter gameplay and side-scrolling mechanics.</p><h3 id=\"octopath-traveler-ii\">5. Octopath Traveler II</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"octopath-traveler-ii\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/lgmLN1NHXyE\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Octopath Traveler II is a sequel to the popular Square Enix game.

Children will probably love Super Mario Odyssey, Pikmin 4, and the Pokémon games though, as they're more oriented towards those ages. Mario Kart 8 and Mario Party are also fantastic choices for Nintendo Switch games to play with kids.</p><p>That's a wrap!

Here are our top picks:</p><h3 id=\"1.-half-life-alyx\">1. Half-Life Alyx</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"1.-half-life-alyx\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/O2W0N3uKXmo\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>If you’re looking for one of the best VR games in the world right now, Half-Life Alyx is <i>the </i>game to try. The offering from Valve earned widespread critical acclaim and successfully took the series to the next level. These games have always made players feel as if they were part of the action, but VR enhances that massively. This hugely popular title was released in 2020, but got a major update in 2023 so lit that it is a must for any gamer out there.</p><h3 id=\"2.-the-walking-dead:-saints-&-sinners\">2. The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners</h3><p>If a zombie apocalypse happened in real life, it probably wouldn’t be much fun. Then again, in a controlled virtual setting, battling the undead can be an insane amount of fun! The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners gives you the chance to step into the world of the AMC series to see if you can survive the harsh world better than Rick Grimes & Co. The title received an update in 2023, which was free to existing players and improved the experience in a huge way that's worth checking for yourself.</p><h3 id=\"3.-cities-vr\">3. Cities VR</h3><p>Cities VR was one of the best VR games in 2022, with high ratings from critics. The Oculus Quest VR game gives players a chance to become the mayor and build their ultimate metropolis. VR games like this allow players to get more hands-on with their creativity in a completely immersive setting.</p><h3 id=\"4.-microsoft-flight-simulator-40th-anniversary-edition\">4. Microsoft Flight Simulator 40th Anniversary Edition</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"4.-microsoft-flight-simulator-40th-anniversary-edition\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/71-HT2XQvlY\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Microsoft Flight Simulator might not be for everyone, but those who like it, absolutely <i>love </i>it! Hardcore avgeeks and Sim enthusiasts will bend over backwards to get a few hours with this title, and for good reason. Flight Sim has evolved and become so realistic over the years that even real pilots (maybe l<i>icensed</i> pilots is a more accurate description in this case) use it for practice. For anyone who’s dreamed of flying an aircraft, the VR version of this classic title is a must-play experience.</p><h3 id=\"5.-jurassic-world-aftermath\">5. Jurassic World Aftermath</h3><p>Jurassic World spawned several great games across a range of devices. Jurassic World Aftermath is one of the best, as the VR title puts players in the center of the dinosaur-infested world of the movies. If you found the ferocious beasts scary in the recent films, just wait until you’re viewing them from a first-person perspective in the highly immersive VR game. It gets regular updates, with brand-new content released in 2023.</p><h3 id=\"6.-tetris-effect:-connected\">6. Tetris Effect: Connected</h3><p>Tetris, one of the most iconic and oldest video games, has evolved with every development in the gaming industry, so it’s no surprise that there’s now a new <i>VR </i>offering. Tetris Effect: Connected highlights how old-school titles can be adapted into VR games easily and gives players a new way to experience the legendary block puzzle game. It's even already being described as one of the best VR games in 2023!</p><h3 id=\"7.-batman:-arkham-vr\">7. Batman: Arkham VR</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"7.-batman:-arkham-vr\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/QRfxn_WjDKE\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>A ton of the best titles on the market are likely to get adapted into VR games in the future. One title that set the tone for this was Batman: Arkham VR. The offering from Rocksteady Studios gave players the chance to become the Caped Crusader and explore the settings from the other games in the series from a first-person perspective.</p><h3 id=\"8.-no-man’s-sky-vr\">8. No Man’s Sky VR</h3><p>One day, it may be possible for people to explore the universe as easily as it is to pop to the convenience store in 2023. But, let’s face it, that’s unlikely to happen in our lifetime, isn’t it? No Man’s Sky VR is the next best thing for people who want to explore distant planets. The procedurally generated game gives you the chance to go to countless places in the universe, and many people think it’s an upgrade on the original title.</p><h3 id=\"9.-subnautica\">9. Subnautica</h3><p>There’s likely to be a huge market for tactical games in VR, as players can explore and interact with their surroundings. Subnautica is one of the best on the market now, and it expands on the hugely popular Windows game that’s been out since 2014. This game is accessible for a wide range of playing abilities, but if you want to know <a href=\"/en/games/genre/strategy-games/\">how to get better at strategy games</a>, you might want to start off with a non-VR type of game first.</p><h3 id=\"10.-vader-immortal:-a-star-wars-vr-series\">10. Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series</h3><p>There are countless Star Wars games on the market, but few of them give players the chance to work alongside the legendary Darth Vader. Vader Immortal is a trilogy of VR games in which you take on the role of a smuggler performing tasks for the powerful Sith.</p><h3 id=\"11.-among-us-vr\">11. Among Us VR</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"11.-among-us-vr\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/m9Z6GjQatek\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Among Us VR is one of the best VR games in 2023 because it has taken a popular party game and made it even better. The VR version allows players to get fully swept up in the cartoon setting of the InnerSloth title. Part of the beauty of this game is collaborating with others, and VR makes you feel a closer connection to the other players. Among Us is totally free to play, but the VR version will set you back $10.</p><h3 id=\"12.-phasmophobia\">12. Phasmophobia</h3><p>One of the best applications for VR is to generate experiences that scare the hell out of users. The horror genre is thriving on the platform, and there are loads of VR games that give players the chance to creep themselves out. One of the best games that achieves this is Phasmophobia. You get the chance to investigate haunted locations and encounter all sorts of ghosts and eerie phenomena.</p><h2 id=\"are-vr-games-the-future-of-gaming?\">Are VR Games the Future of Gaming?</h2><p>Many people believe that VR is the technology of the future, and VR games will soon become dominant in the industry. Developers have always strived to create realistic and immersive games, and VR offers them the potential to do that. Taking that into account, it might be a safe bet to say that yeah, at some point VR games could be the future of gaming.</p><h2 id=\"how-much-does-a-vr-game-cost?\">How Much Does a VR Game Cost?</h2><p>The cost of VR games varies depending on what you’re playing and the platform you are using. If you’re a sucker for deals, you’ll find there are heaps of free VR games to choose from. But some VR games don’t come cheap, for example, Microsoft Flight Simulator 40th Anniversary Edition costs $60.</p><h2 id=\"what-is-the-#1-vr-game?\">What is the #1 VR Game?</h2><p>Just like like any other type of game or platform (such as our games listed under <a href=\"/en/games/platform/mac-games/\">Mac Games</a>) this is really a matter of opinion. Sure, anybody with a Reddit account has their idea of the perfect VR game everybody has got to try. But there are so many kinds of VR titles to choose from! Even looking at something as simple as choosing the best free VR means there's a bunch of other VR games - games you need to pay for - to choose from!

Although building isn’t always a central component of management games, it is popular within the genre. Why? Because it plays into the idea that you’re a godlike figure who creates and, subsequently, rules over worlds.</p><p>What’s important to understand is that building should be taken in its broadest sense i.e. we’re not just talking about constructing buildings. Soccer management games, for example, require you to build teams. Money management games require you to build a business empire. So, while there will always be an element of building something, it won’t always be bricks-and-mortar structures.</p><h2 id=\"what-are-the-types-of-management-games?\">What Are the Types of Management Games?</h2><p>City builders are among the most popular management games you can play. Does this mean the Sims is a management game? Yes, it is.

You can also play business management games and time management games where you have to manage various processes within specific time periods.</p><h2 id=\"what-is-a-management-games-training-method?\">What Is a Management Games Training Method?</h2><p>A management games training method is the fact skills you need to master in the digital world can be applied to other aspects of life.

The servers see between 12 and 100 players launched into a map, locked to a single-block podium to await the start of the game.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/ET9n1aKzY-0\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>A bunch of chests bearing weapons, food, and other useful inventory-fillers tease players in the middle of the podium circle and also can be found scattered across the map. As the countdown ends, players rush to fill their inventories for the inevitable showdown that will leave just one player standing: the Hunger Games video games champion.</p><p>It’s an epic mini-game that can really get you sweating, and the game makes no attempt to hide where the concept for the dynamic came from.</p><h3 id=\"fortnite\">Fortnite</h3><p>Everyone has heard of Fortnite, one of the biggest games of the last decade. This Hunger Games-inspired video game is one that took the world by storm after its launch in 2017.</p><p>Fortnite - the <a href=\"/en/games/category/free-to-play/\">free-to-play</a> battle royale game - is available on most consoles and is estimated to be played by over three million gamers worldwide. The game continues to receive new collaborations and updates to this day and shows no signs of slowing down.</p><p>Rather than a tantalizing countdown standing on a podium, an airbus flies across the map, dropping players off for them to find their own landing. From there, players must hunt each other down as a fatal storm encloses the map, eventually shrinking the playable area to the size of a pinhead where the remaining survivors must battle it out in an epic clash of skill.</p><p>The dynamic strays a lot farther from that in The Hunger Games, but the original series definitely inspired the creation of the hit game.</p><h3 id=\"cod:-warzone\">COD: Warzone</h3><p>COD: Warzone is perhaps the most popular of these Hunger Games inspired video games amongst the competitive gaming crowd. Merging the realism and violence you'd expect of COD, along with the novelty and fun of Hunger Games video games, Warzone has emerged as one of the most successful, free-to-play games in recent years.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/i8-U61P_7C8\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Players must arm themselves with weapons and medical equipment before engaging in battle with other participants, much like in the original series. Though, while Katniss was armed with a bow and arrow, Warzone players can strap up with the likes of a TAQ-56 assault rifle – even Katniss or Finnick wouldn't stand much of a chance up against one of these.</p><h2 id=\"what-we-know-about-the-hunger-games:-the-ballad-of-songbirds-&-snakes\">What we Know about The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes</h2><p>The fifth film in The Hunger Games series serves as a prequel to Mockingjay - Part 2, the fourth film based on Suzanne Collins' 2010 novel. Set 60 years before the first film, the upcoming title will follow an 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow before he becomes the tyrannical leader of Panem that we are introduced to in the original series.</p><p>For the 10th annual reaping, Coriolanus is paired with Lucy Baird, the tribute from District 12, as her mentor. The film follows the relationship the two build throughout the lead-up, duration, and aftermath of the games, and reveals who is a songbird, and who is a snake.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/RDE6Uz73A7g\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Judging by the villainous version of Snow we see in the later films - we might already have some presumptions about just who turns out to be a snake…</p><p>The trailer teases the opening of the game– the heart-in-mouth moments that are felt as the time ticks down toward the start of the reaping, where tributes charge toward their loot and inevitable demise. It's this captivating, terrifying experience that has inspired a fleet of Hunger Games video games.</p><h2 id=\"looking-ahead\">Looking Ahead</h2><p>So, as we are forced to wait until the release of The Hunger Games prequel, there is no shortage of Hunger Games video games that fans can delve into and whet their appetite before its release.</p><p>Though no official Hunger Games video games are tied to the series, the plethora of industry-leading games that the series has inspired leaves little to be desired in survival-game entertainment. For now, you'll have to settle for immersing yourself in the gameplay of it all.</p><p>May the odds be <i>forever </i>in your favor!</p>","date":"8/3/2023"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Hunger Games video games","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/hunger-games-1.webp"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"16385"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/sandbox-games/"},"strings":{"title":"The 10 Best Sandbox Games - 2023 Update","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"300000","description":"<p>Sandbox games are all the rage in 2023, and their popularity is only increasing.

The title from Mojang Studios was a global phenomenon, with countless sales across a range of platforms. Players can take part in a range of activities in the procedurally generated block-filled world. It also offers a social experience, allowing players to collaborate in different gameplay modes.</p><h3 id=\"2.-grand-theft-auto-v\">2. Grand Theft Auto V</h3><p>Grand Theft Auto V was simply an open world game upon its release in 2013. It later went on to become one of the most successful games of all time when Grand Theft Auto Online provided players with a completely new way to experience the virtual world of San Andreas. The game from Rockstar North has sold more than 110 million copies and is one of the most critically praised games ever made.</p><h3 id=\"3.-roblox\">3. Roblox</h3><p>Though not technically a game on its own, Roblox is one of the oldest sandbox titles and it's still hugely popular in 2023, being one of the biggest platforms for game creations to date. The title from Roblox Corporation first dropped in 2006 and has gone from strength to strength since then. It has millions of monthly active users thanks to the regular updates and the limitless possibilities within the game world. The community of players helps to keep the game moving forward, as these people contribute to developing new activities within the Roblox sandbox.</p><h3 id=\"4.-terraria\">4. Terraria</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"terraria\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/zLfYD2OOtsc\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Terraria has been one of the leading sandbox games since its release in 2011, and it’s unique in the fact that it offers a 2D experience. It’s like Minecraft as it involves digging, mining, and crafting. The aim of the game in the Re-Logic title is to build powerful settlements and protect them from powerful bosses. There are various ways to play the game, with players having the choice of collaborating or competing with one another.</p><h3 id=\"5.-no-man’s-sky\">5. No Man’s Sky</h3><p>No Man’s Sky is one of the most ambitious sci-fi games of recent years, and it displays the overwhelming potential of procedurally generated sandboxes. The 2016 offering from Hello Games has billions of planets for players to explore, and they all offer unique experiences. It faced some criticism when it was first released but thanks to updates and improvements No Man’s Sky has become one of the leading sandbox games on the market.</p><h3 id=\"6.-factorio\">6. Factorio</h3><p>2016 was a huge year for sandbox titles, with Factorio another worthy installment to the genre. The title from Wube Software puts players in charge of complex factories. The aim of the game is to research technology and expand an industrial empire. This is a complicated game with a lot of intricacies and appeals to players in search of challenging sandbox games.</p><h3 id=\"7.-stardew-valley\">7. Stardew Valley</h3><p>Stardew Valley also dropped in 2016 and has been captivating players ever since. The ConcernedApe title offers a relaxing gameplay experience for players who want to discover what it’s like to run a farm. There’s an immersive world to explore with plenty of hidden features, which is why the game has shipped more than 10 million copies across multiple platforms since its release.</p><h3 id=\"8.-rimworld\">8. RimWorld</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"rimworld\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/TH545Ftzebs\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>For players in search of recent games that have gone on to become instant hits, RimWorld is one of the best options. The offering from Ludeon Studios came out in 2017 and was praised for offering an immersive sci-fi experience. The game is set on a distant planet, with players having to scavenge and build a functioning colony.</p><h3 id=\"9.-subnautica\">9. Subnautica</h3><p>Subnautica is another 2018 title that takes players on a journey to a distant world. This one isn’t a traditional space offering, though. Instead, players have the chance to explore vast underwater realms on an alien ocean planet. It’s a tough environment that will appeal to anyone in search of a slightly different playing experience.</p><h3 id=\"10.-garry’s-mod\">10. Garry’s Mod</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"garry’s-mod\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/AkEhqYJBRW8\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Garry’s Mod from Facepunch Studios is one of the games that kickstarted the whole genre. The 2004 title built a strong player base, and this allowed the game to grow and develop through various mods in the years since its release. There are endless possibilities for players to have fun within the game world, which is why it’s still popular to this day.</p><h2 id=\"what-does-a-sandbox-game-mean?\">What Does a Sandbox Game Mean?</h2><p>The basic premise of these games is that they emphasize player freedom and creativity. Developers create a vast virtual world in which players can move about however they want. Usually, you have the chance to shape the world to your own preferences, and the focus is on player-driven experiences. This means that there are almost <i>endless </i>possibilities! That's right - these games can carry on for a <i>very </i>long time.</p><h2 id=\"what-kind-of-game-is-a-sandbox?\">What Kind of Game is a Sandbox?</h2><p>Since sandbox games can be part of virtually any genre, many are <a href=\"/en/games/platform/pc-games/\">PC games</a>, as they need high specifications to run on max quality. They can be anything from sci-fi offerings to action-adventure games, with the key feature being that players can travel around the playable landscape at their leisure.</p><p><i>Sandbox titles differ from open world games</i> in that players usually have complete control over their actions in the former. In the latter, there is a vast playing area, but - and it's an important difference - players are led by a central narrative that features main quests along with side missions. Some titles can cross between the two game categories depending on the mode you play. For instance, <strong>Grand Theft Auto V </strong>is an open world game in its single player mode. <strong>Grand Theft Auto V Online</strong>, on the other hand, is a sandbox game in which players are free to do what they want.</p><h2 id=\"what-is-the-ultimate-sandbox-game?\">What is the Ultimate Sandbox Game?</h2><p>The most successful of all time is Minecraft - so it could also be named the ultimate game since basing this title on other factors might be difficult, verging on not being possible. Minecraft is still the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.visualcapitalist.com/cp/ranked-the-best-selling-video-games-in-history/\" rel=\"nofollow\">best-selling video game</a> in history, with more than 238 million sales.

Endless Legend</h3><p>Endless Legend sticks out for its exploration aspect. It offers a wide range of differing terrains across the map and a variety of different quests.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/OsMa9EC3nf8\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>You can build major cities or live out a nomadic lifestyle in the game. The tactical combat is slightly lacking in the game which certainly holds it back, but it still offers an immersive experience when it comes to 4X games.</p><h3 id=\"2.-age-of-wonders-iii\">2. Age of Wonders III</h3><p>Age of Wonders is a legendary fantasy series that has for a long time been a key part of the 4X games genre.</p><p>All of the series' titles have been popular and incredibly successful, but the third installment in the series represents the pick of the bunch.</p><p>With mythical characters and classical empire-building, the game offers a top experience when it comes to turn-based strategy games.</p><h3 id=\"3.-warhammer-40k-gladius-–-relics-of-war\">3. Warhammer 40k Gladius – Relics of War</h3><p>Warhammer 40k 4X games don't have a reputation for being the leading games on the market. Gladius - Relics of War is a rare example of a Warhammer game that perfectly suits the 4X games genre.</p><p>The game has a focus on warfare - you can use tanks which can be upgraded. Your army can be improved in terms of manpower.</p><p>There is no democracy in this game, just all-out warfare. Warhammer offers the closest replication to <a href=\"/en/games/genre/shooting-games/\">shooter games</a> when it comes to 4X games.</p><h3 id=\"4.-europa-universalis-iv\">4. Europa Universalis IV</h3><p>Europa Universalis' niche is that the game offers a level of realism that no other 4X game has touched upon.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/hWQ8AXwHPQg\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>The game takes place in a fictional version of Europe including several nations. The game offers a history lesson - the timeline of the game spans from the Middle Ages to the Industrial Revolution. Reminiscent of games like Civilization, you plot your next move across a map and watch your decisions unfold globally.</p><p>Its wide-ranging history allows the player to conquer all of Europe, a level of achievement that most other games simply do not offer. This game is a fairly lengthy commitment, but it's incredibly rewarding.</p><h3 id=\"5.-galactic-civilizations-iii\">5. Galactic Civilizations III</h3><p>Galactic Civilizations III offers a unique experience that cannot be compared to other 4X games. Each save game involves a new randomly generated galaxy for players to conquer.</p><p>This means that every fresh game involves a new challenge with different strategies. If gaining control of unique galaxies is your thing then Galactic Civilizations III could be the space-based 4X game for you.</p><h3 id=\"6.-crusader-kings-3\">6. Crusader Kings 3</h3><p>Crusader Kings is almost a sub-genre in itself, as it intervenes the RPG theme with the 4X games genre.</p><p>It is a medieval ruler simulator that takes place over a long period of time. Hard work and excellent strategy of a future generation's ancestors could lead to eventual success in this game.</p><h3 id=\"7.-shadow-empire\">7. Shadow Empire</h3><p>Shadow Empire does not offer impressive graphics or user interface. But it nails all of the other necessary aspects of a 4X game.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/BL5I_QfnGyo\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>It is a 2D game that focuses on offering in-depth strategic options rather than graphical features. It takes place in a post-apocalyptic world and warfare takes precedence in this one.</p><p>Shadow Empire is ideal for those in search of a challenging experience in a randomly generated world. It defines the traditional 4X genre without the modern advancements of gaming.</p><h3 id=\"8.-civilization-6\">8. Civilization 6</h3><p>Civilization 6 has been on the market for seven years now and it is still possibly the most popular 4X game available on PC. Known for appealing to a wide range of gamers, Civilization involves guiding your own nation from ruins to huge riches. Your nation is built from land you can transform into major cities by making skyscrapers and other significant architecture.</p><p>Added DLC content even offers realistic additions to the game such as global warming. Civilization has fantasy aspect, you must use strategy to solve real-world problems within your own fantasy nation.</p><h3 id=\"9.-stellaris\">9. Stellaris</h3><p>Stellaris is certainly the leading title when it comes to space 4X games. It offers a galaxy filled with content, especially with added <a href=\"/en/glossary/dlc/\">DLC content</a>.</p><p>The aim of the Stellaris 4X game is essentially to take control of the galaxy. It is a turnless game, which means players can avoid the tedious wait for their opponent to make their move.</p><p>Stellaris may not be the most in-depth offering when it comes to 4X games, but it is a rare example of a 4X game that has been perfectly developed from top to bottom.</p><h3 id=\"10.-old-world\">10. Old World</h3><p>Old World is a modern take on the traditional 4X games of the past based on land terrain. The game does not last a significant amount of time, due to its 200 turn limit.</p><p>Old World offers a level of immersion that most other games don't. The characters you control have unique personalities and traits. This allows players to become much more connected to their empire than in most 4X games.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/4ONKy-CK0zg\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Here we have summarized the leading options when it comes to 4X games in 2023.

So, what is it that makes retro gaming appealing?</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidanger}}</p><h2 id=\"understanding-the-allure-of-retro-gaming\">Understanding the Allure of Retro Gaming</h2><p>Retro gaming, a term often synonymous with vintage games, refers to video games from the 1970s to the early 2000s. Anything can fall into this bracket, whether it's arcade cabinets or home consoles.</p><p>Retro gaming is making a remarkable comeback, but why? It's not just about revisiting the past; it's a nostalgic journey that brings players back to the charming simplicity of earlier times. The games of this era, renowned for their innovative mechanics, offer an enjoyable experience shrouded in a unique <i>vintage </i>charm.</p><p>The resurgence of retro gaming goes beyond playing old games on <a href=\"/en/games/platform/mobile-games/\">modern platforms</a>; it's about infusing new life into the nostalgic art, soundtracks, and gameplay that defined a generation of gaming.</p><h2 id=\"top-5-retro-games-on-current-gen-consoles\">Top 5 Retro Games on Current Gen Consoles</h2><p>Today's video game landscape draws significantly from the retro classics, and contemporary platforms have opened the door to a new wave of retro-inspired gaming. It's also worth noting that some games can be played directly on a browser (as in the case of HTML5 games) while others are <a href=\"/en/games/category/download-games/\">downloadable</a> to your device.</p><p>Personal taste often dictates our favorite games, but certain titles have left an undeniable mark on the industry due to their wide appeal and influential nature. Here are our picks for the top five retro games that have made a triumphant return on modern platforms.</p><h3 id=\"1.-super-mario-world-(nintendo-switch)\">1. Super Mario World (Nintendo Switch)</h3><p>Nintendo’s Super Mario World on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) redefined platform gaming upon its release in 1990. Shigeru Miyamoto’s Super Mario Bros had already changed the game upon its release, with gamers experiencing its innovative smooth scrolling and precise controls breathed new life into the genre, making Super Mario Bros a commercial and critical success.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/s2bTQK6vbKI\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Super Mario World took this one step further, using the 16-bit graphics of the SNES to take everything to the next level. Now, there’s an overworld, along with a greater variety of levels and monsters to encounter. And this was Yoshi’s debut too! The game's enduring popularity is evidenced by its active presence in the speedrunning community and various remakes.</p><h3 id=\"2.-resident-evil-4-(nintendo-switch,-xbox-one-ps4,-ps5)\">2. Resident Evil 4 (Nintendo Switch, Xbox One PS4, PS5)</h3><p>Capcom’s survival horror classic quite literally changed the genre with Resident Evil 4. Released in 2005, the game’s reveal proved to be at odds with diehard fans who were expecting another encounter with the devilishly evil corporation Umbrella and its merry collection of zombies and other unsightly monsters.</p><p>Resident Evil 4 immediately threw this into the trash, starting the game with the demise of Umbrella, with returning protagonist Leon Kennedy traveling to Spain to save the president’s daughter. Was it corny? Yes. Was it just full of ridiculous twists and gameplay scenarios? Yes.</p><p>Resident Evil 4 reinvented the over-the-shoulder third-person shooting genre, and its influence in this genre can be felt today, whether it’s The Last of Us, Gears of War, or anything else. It all points back to RE4. It even got a remake in 2023, too.</p><h3 id=\"3.-the-legend-of-zelda---ocarina-of-time-(nintendo-switch)\">3. The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time (Nintendo Switch)</h3><p>Another Nintendo classic, there’s no escaping it. This 1998 masterpiece <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.ask.com/culture/legend-of-zelda-retrospective\" rel=\"nofollow\">took the world by storm</a>, setting a new standard for 3D adventure gaming. With an expansive world to explore and a multitude of puzzles to solve, Ocarina of Time encapsulated what made the Zelda series so beloved while adding new layers of depth.</p><p>For many gamers, this was their first big Zelda experience as they clutched at their weirdly shaped Nintendo 64 controller. OoT brought a new sense of adventure as you traveled through time to fight Ganondorf with your Master Sword, switching between kid and adult Link when necessary.</p><p>The game's influence is still felt in contemporary titles, and it remains a fan favorite through various rereleases. It even had a remake of the Nintendo 3DS too that’s well worth checking out.</p><h3 id=\"4.-doom-(nintendo-switch,-xbox-one,-ps4,-ps5)\">4. Doom (Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PS4, PS5)</h3><p>Doom took the gaming world by storm in 1993. If Wolfenstein opened the door to first-person shooters, Doom ran through it with a chainsaw. Its visceral, fast-paced action experience was unparalleled at the time. Developed by id Software, now part of Microsoft, and led by John Romero and John Carmack, Doom's gameplay was straightforward yet addictive, requiring players to navigate through levels and dispatch hordes of demonic enemies with Doomguy (yes, that’s his name - don’t question it) fighting to survive the hell on Mars.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/BkaC1-QoraY\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>The game's legacy persists today, with source ports and console releases still enjoyed by many. Today, it’s now quite affectionately known as a boomer shooter, but its gameplay, level design, and catchy soundtrack make it forever relevant.</p><h3 id=\"5.-final-fantasy-vii-(nintendo-switch,-xbox-one,-ps4,-ps5)\">5. Final Fantasy VII (Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PS4, PS5)</h3><p>Final Fantasy VII was a pivotal moment for the franchise, with Square Soft (now Square Enix) moving the franchise from 2D to 3D, which also took advantage of the massive space that moving to the CD format allowed. This is where CGI cutscenes become a thing with the franchise.</p><p>The game followed Cloud, a 1st Class Soldier tasked with supporting a fringe-eco group in saving the world from an evil corporation. Along with the legendary soundtrack and story the game is known for, it also introduced gamers to the JRPG genre, as well as the turn-based combat we came to love.</p><p>The original version is available on basically every format, plus, there is also a new remake for players to experience!</p><p>Whether you're a long-time fan or a newcomer to these games, there's no denying the timeless allure of these iconic titles. Enjoy your trip down memory lane!</p><h2 id=\"the-future-of-retro-gaming:-a-sneak-peek\">The Future of Retro Gaming: A Sneak Peek</h2><p>As we navigate the latter half of 2023, the gaming landscape is abuzz with anticipation.

There’s no doubt that there’s a huge market for these titles, and they will continue to be big business in Hollywood as filmmakers can target audiences that are already established. It's enough to take a look at the MCU and its fanbase to realize that one type of media can definitely complement another.</p><p>We’ll talk you through everything you need to know about video game movies, including some upcoming ones that you <i>need </i>to know about.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidorc}}</p><h2 id=\"what-are-the-eight-top-video-game-movies?\">What Are the 8 Biggest Video Game Movies?</h2><p>It’s pretty hard to pick the most notable video game movies of all time, but we’ve tried to whittle them down for you, leaving the top eight video game movies which managed to make the cut (pardon the pun)…</p><h3 id=\"super-mario-bros.-(1993)\">1. Super Mario Bros. (1993)</h3><p>Super Mario Bros. from Rocky Morton and Annabel Jankel deserves a mention in this list as it’s well worth checking out. Despite being a commercial and critical bomb at the time of its release, it has gone on to become a cult classic. Do you agree with the critics who claim it’s one of the worst films ever made, or are you on team #misunderstoodclassic?</p><h3 id=\"mortal-kombat-annihilation-(1997)\">2. Mortal Kombat Annihilation (1997)</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"mortal-kombat-annihilation-(1997)\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/MIt0VY7Yg2w\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>There were a few really big or anticipated video game movies in the 1990s, with Mortal Kombat Annihilation released in 1997. This sequel to Mortal Kombat (released two years prior, in 1995) was another film that was panned by critics and failed at the box office. However, for lovers of Mortal Kombat 3 it might be hit or miss: this video game movie featured many of the game characters - something that did work for many fans that were happy to see their favorite on the big screen, while others were severely disappointed in their portrayal.</p><h3 id=\"pokémon-detective-pikachu-(2019)\">3. Pokémon Detective Pikachu (2019)</h3><p>At the time of its release, Pokémon Detective Pikachu reached <i>number two</i> in the revenue rankings of video game movies, with a worldwide take of $433 million. The offering from Rob Letterman is an excellent hybrid of CGI and live footage, with a strong performance from <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/detective-pikachu-how-ryan-reynolds-was-cast-pokemon/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Ryan Reynolds</a> that appeals to non gamers as well as big fans of the augmented reality game of Pokémon Go. </p><h3 id=\"tomb-raider-(2018)\">4. Tomb Raider (2018)</h3><p>Tomb Raider is one of the world’s most iconic video game franchises, with Lara Croft among the top characters ever created. She has been adapted into various video game movies, with the most recent coming in 2018. The offering from Roar Uthaug featured Alicia Vikander in the title role, and she portrayed a raw and rugged version of Croft. This follows the 2001, well, fiasco, starring Angelina Jolie in the role of video game's heroine. </p><h3 id=\"the-angry-birds-movie-(2016)\">5. The Angry Birds Movie (2016)</h3><p>Angry Birds is one of the most famous <a href=\"/en/games/platform/html5-games/\">HTML5 games</a> ever made, and it helped the mobile gaming industry to boom that demonstrated that games can be played on touch screens too. </p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/QRmKa7vvct4\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>The Angry Birds Movie was a great extension of the franchise, and it grossed <i>more than $352 million worldwide</i>. This led to a sequel, The Angry Birds Movie 2, in 2019.</p><h3 id=\"sonic-the-hedgehog-(2020)\">6. Sonic the Hedgehog (2020)</h3><p>Many critics regard Sonic the Hedgehog as one of the best video game movies <i>ever </i>made! Considering the outburst it initially received when fans saw Sonic's design, the studios quickly went away and made Sonic look less monstrous. It received a lot of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://youtu.be/3Z9AxJw-Xbo\" rel=\"nofollow\">positive reviews from critics</a>, who said it managed to capture the charm of the SEGA games perfectly.</p><h3 id=\"sonic-the-hedgehog-2-(2022)\">7. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022)</h3><p>After Sonic the Hedgehog became one of the most popular video game movies, it was no surprise that it led to a sequel. The 2022 offering from Jeff Fowler was another critical success and achieved an even higher take at the box office than its predecessor. Plus, surprisingly enough, Idris Elba doesn't hold <i>any </i>punches when it comes to playing Knuckles.</p><h3 id=\"the-super-mario-bros.-movie-(2023)\">8. The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023)</h3><p>The Super Mario Bros. Movie took advantage of the resurgence of video game movies in popular culture and was a <i>major </i>success. The fully animated offering had enough nostalgia combined with fresh ideas to attract a diverse range of viewers, from children to adults. It brought in more than <strong>$1.35 billion</strong> at the box office, setting a new bar for video game movies in the future.</p><h2 id=\"two-upcoming-video-game-movies-to-get-excited-about\">Two Upcoming Video Game Movies to Get Excited About</h2><p>If you like the sound of these video game movies and want more, some upcoming offerings in the pipeline could be major hits.

There is no official release date yet, but the picture is in the pre-production phase. Rumors suggest that once ruler of Dothraki, Jason Momoa will play the lead role in the picture. </p><h3 id=\"sonic-the-hedgehog-3-(2024)\">Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (2024)</h3><p>With the two Sonic the Hedgehog movies combining to earn more than $700 million, it only stands to reason that the studio would release another.

Though their small stature might not impress next to the modern intimidating monoliths of the static consoles like the PS5 or Series X, old and <a href=\"/en/games/category/new-games/\">new games</a> available on these platforms can easily measure up.</p><p>With that in mind, let's look at 12 of the best handheld gaming console systems ever released. From the retro to the new, here's a taste of what the best handheld gaming console market has had to offer.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidanger}}</p><h2 id=\"the-top-12-handheld-game-consoles\">The Top 12 Handheld Game Consoles</h2><h3 id=\"1.-the-nintendo-game-boy\">1. The Nintendo Game Boy</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: April 21, 1989</li><li>Launch Price: $89.99</li></ul><p>Where better to start in a list of the best handheld game console systems than the granddaddy of them all? Nintendo's Game Boy was a revelation in mobile entertainment when it launched. The modern handheld gaming market owes everything to the Game Boy and its little monochrome green-and-black screen. With a vertical layout and two action buttons, the Game Boy was a simple system, and it didn’t need to be anything else.</p><h3 id=\"2.-the-sony-psp\">2. The Sony PSP</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: March 24, 2005</li><li>Launch Price: $249</li></ul><p>Sony’s first entry into the handheld game console market came fresh off the success of the PlayStation 2 system. At the time, the PSP was a more powerful system than its Nintendo competitors, offering many 3D games whereas the GBA and DS more heavily embraced 2D. Perhaps the only classic handheld to really challenge Nintendo, the PSP was a much-loved system.</p><h3 id=\"3.-the-ds-line\">3. The DS Line</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: November 21, 2004</li><li>Launch Price: $149</li></ul><p>When it was first announced, nobody was sure what to make of the DS's eponymous dual screen and touchscreen features. Opening like a book, the DS turned out to be a fantastic handheld game console. The DS continued the Game Boy legacy with continuations of handheld Tetris, Mario, Metroid, Castlevania, etc.</p><h3 id=\"4.-the-valve-steam-deck\">4. The Valve Steam Deck</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: February 25, 2022</li><li>Launch Price: $399</li></ul><p>Valve's Steam Deck isn't the first handheld to enable desktop games on the go, but it is among the best handheld game console systems. It’s one of the larger and heavier systems here, but in terms of flexibility, nothing beats the PC backing on which the Steam Deck operates. Almost any <a href=\"/en/games/category/download-games/\">games download</a> can be placed on the Steam Deck.</p><h3 id=\"5.-my-arcade\">5. My Arcade</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: January 2018</li><li>Launch Price: Varies</li></ul><p>The My Arcade line of systems strikes a curious balance between official devices and custom hardware. Some systems focus on miniaturized arcade cabinets which host hundreds of games. Others, like the Pac-Man system, focus entirely on one game. These niche machines are fantastic for hardcore fans of specific games.</p><h3 id=\"6.-the-smartphone\">6. The Smartphone</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: Varies</li><li>Launch Price: Varies</li></ul><p>This one might be hard to consider among the best handheld game console systems because it's not a dedicated gaming device, but hear us out. While smartphones offering games is optional, they've also done a huge amount in bringing gaming to the masses. The truth is that many of the best handheld game console releases wouldn't exist without smartphone contributions to the market.</p><h3 id=\"7.-the-sega-game-gear\">7. The Sega Game Gear</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: October 6, 1990</li><li>Launch Price: $149</li></ul><p>Sega’s Game Gear was one of the first big names to challenge the Game Boy, and it did push the handheld industry forward. At a time when Sega made consoles and gave Nintendo a challenge, the Game Gear offered a range of great games, had a fantastic screen, and was notoriously battery-hungry. A forgotten gem, for sure.</p><h3 id=\"8.-retroid-pocket-3\">8. Retroid Pocket 3</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: September 2022</li><li>Launch Price: $119</li></ul><p>The Retroid Pocket 3 finds a place as what might be the best retro handheld game console for diversity. This system is built on the emulation of older handheld and static consoles, so it is perfect for retro fans.</p><h3 id=\"9.-the-game-boy-advance\">9. The Game Boy Advance</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: June 11, 2001</li><li>Launch Price: $99</li></ul><p>The Game Boy Color updated the classic Game Boy formula, but the GBA raised the bar substantially. Essentially offering the power of a SNES on a handheld game console for the first time, the GBA pushed handheld graphics to new heights. Allowing for hot new releases in Pokémon, Metroid, and Mario, the GBA is remembered fondly in the handheld game console market.</p><h3 id=\"10.-asus-rog-ally\">10. Asus ROG Ally</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: June 13, 2023</li><li>Launch Price: $699</li></ul><p>The Steam Deck might have kickstarted the new handheld gaming PC race, but the ROG Ally lit a fire under its, well, decks. More powerful than the Steam Deck, the Ally is a more expensive option that explores what a premium handheld game console can do.</p><h3 id=\"11.-gpd-win-max-2-2023\">11. GPD Win Max 2 2023</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: May 2023</li><li>Launch Price: $799</li></ul><p>This update stretches the definition of a handheld game console, as it straddles the line between notebook and handheld systems. We included it on this list thanks to its full QWERTY keyboard support. This is a little cramped, but it’s also an important experiment in investigating where this arm of the market might go next.</p><h3 id=\"12.-the-nintendo-switch\">12. The Nintendo Switch</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: March 3, 2017</li><li>Launch Price: $299</li></ul><p>As a dual handheld/console, the Switch consolidated Nintendo's handheld/console library into one amazing whole. With some of the best titles of this generation, it's no surprise many consider the Switch <i>the </i>best handheld game console of all time.</p><h2 id=\"is-there-a-ps-handheld?\">Is There a PS Handheld?</h2><p>There are two main PS handheld game consoles from Sony, the PSP and the later <a href=\"/en/blog/ps-vita-games/\">PS Vita</a>. Sony is also looking to release a new handheld to stream PS5 games too, but we don’t yet know many details about how this new system will shake out.</p><h2 id=\"what-is-the-name-of-the-best-handheld-gaming-console?\">What Is the Name of the Best Handheld Gaming Console?</h2><p>That would be the Nintendo DS. Note that these are separated into different lines, like the original DS and the DS Lite. Each is counted as the same overall platform regarding sales.</p><h2 id=\"how-big-should-a-handheld-console-be?\">How Big Should a Handheld Console Be?</h2><p>There's no one easy answer to this question, for a few reasons. Different people have different-sized hands for one thing, so there's no such thing as a standardized one-size-fits-all approach. Even if a device fits in your hands as the name suggests it should, the rest of the unit can vary in size greatly. While something like the DS and Gameboy could fit in a pocket, the same isn't true of a Steam Deck or Ally. Ultimately, the right size depends on your wants and needs.</p><h2 id=\"whats-the-cheapest-price-for-a-handheld-game-console?\">What's the Cheapest Price for a Handheld Game Console?</h2><p>The cheapest systems will tend to be low-powered emulation handhelds like a My Arcade device or a Retroid Pocket. These don't require cutting-edge tech, so the costs can be well under $100. As long as they offer what you want and don't cut corners in construction quality, these cheap devices can still offer hundreds or thousands of hours of entertainment.</p>","date":"11/18/2021"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Best handheld game consoles","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/handheld-consoles-1.webp"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"13551"}}],"listArticles":[{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/pvp-and-pve/"},"strings":{"title":"PvE vs PvP - What’s the Difference?"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Pve vs PvP","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/pve-vs-pvp-1.webp"}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"13288"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/aaa-games/"},"strings":{"title":"The Top AAA Games of 2023 - Plarium"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"What are AAA games?","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/aaa-games-1.webp"}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14809"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/ar-games/"},"strings":{"title":"Check Out the Best AR Games of 2023"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"AR Games (Alternate Reality Games)","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/ar-games.webp"}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"13421"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/video-game-villains/"},"strings":{"title":"The Greatest Video Game Villains of All Time"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"The Greatest Video Game Villains of All Time","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/video-game-villains-1.webp"}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"16445"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/konami-code/"},"strings":{"title":"What Exactly Is the Konami Code?"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"What's the Konami Code?","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/konami-code-1.webp"}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"13532"}}]},"components":{}}},{"name":"widget-articles-aside-promoted-game-v3","type":"widget-articles-aside-promoted-game-v3","model":{"links":{"url":"/en/plarium-play/download-user/?plid=885739&pxl=seo&appId=27","urlForGamePage":"/en/game/raid-shadow-legends/","googlePlayUrl":"https://app.appsflyer.com/com.plarium.raidlegends?pid=SEO&c=749089","appStoreUrl":"https://app.appsflyer.com/id1371565796?pid=SEO&c=749088&af_siteid=HomePage"},"strings":{"title":"RAID: Shadow Legends","subtitle":"Collect 700+ Champions & Fight For Glory","label":"Download","analyticsGameName":"raid"},"images":{"promoImg":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/plarium-play/games/Raid/promo.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"authGameTheme":"default","isRedirectDownload":"true"},"repeaters":{},"components":{}}},{"name":"widget-articles-subscribe-v3","type":"widget-articles-subscribe-v3","model":{"links":{},"strings":{"title":"Subscribe to the Blog","errorInvalid":"Invalid email address.

We prefer to stay impartial on the matter, but there’s no denying that the device had some <i>amazing </i>titles. Keep on scrolling as we talk you through the best PS Vita games ever made, from the console's conception to the present. Read on and see if you agree with us!</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidorc}}</p><h2 id=\"our-definitive-list-of-the-best-ps-vita-games\">Our Definitive List of the Best PS Vita Games</h2><p>If you have a PS Vita, are looking to buy one, or simply want to reminisce, you should definitely know the titles below, as we humbly believe them to be the best games ever made for this console. Some of these will go down in history and there’s a chance they could be revisited on future platforms, so our advice would be to make a mental (or any other kind of) note of them. Here goes:</p><h3 id=\"1.-persona-4-golden\">1. Persona 4 Golden</h3><p>2012’s Persona 4 Golden is one of the most critically acclaimed offerings on the PS Vita and easily goes down among its best games ever. The RPG involves battling dark forces in a small town while also trying to balance school life. Just the typical life of a teenager, right? It received a score of 9.3/10 from IGN, thanks to its deep characters and detailed combat.</p><h3 id=\"2.-uncharted:-golden-abyss\">2. Uncharted: Golden Abyss</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"uncharted:-golden-abyss\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/YHDezyb6vhk\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Every gamer worth their salt has played the Uncharted series on consoles. If you haven’t, may we politely ask <i>why</i>? Anyway, if you’re looking for a scaled-down version of that title, Uncharted: Golden Abyss is a great prequel to the main series. It earned a score of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-vita/uncharted-golden-abyss\" rel=\"nofollow\">80 on Metacritic</a> and captured the essence of the other Nathan Drake-led games well.</p><h3 id=\"3.-gravity-rush\">3. Gravity Rush</h3><p>According to GamesRadar, Gravity Rush is easily among the best PS Vita games. The esteemed publication gave the title a score of 4.5 out of 5 and commended its innovative gameplay. The 2012 offering from SCE Japan Studio is an action-adventure in which you control a woman with the power to manipulate gravity.</p><h3 id=\"4.-tearaway\">4. Tearaway</h3><p>We just love games with completely unique concepts, and Tearaway falls into that category thanks to its original paper-crafted world. The 2013 Media Molecule game was rated 3.5 stars out of 4 by USA Today and was praised for its imaginative features. </p><h3 id=\"5.-danganronpa-series\">5. Danganronpa Series</h3><p>If you’re someone who loves it when your choices influence the story, the Danganronpa Series will be right up your street. The offerings from Spike Chunsoft are visual novel games known for their gripping narratives. IGN has rated some of the titles as high as 8.5/10, thanks to their memorable characters and gameplay. They can easily be classed among the best PS Vita games ever.</p><h3 id=\"6.-killzone:-mercenary\">6. Killzone: Mercenary</h3><p>For players in search of one of the best FPS games on PS Vita, Killzone: Mercenary is unmissable. The 2013 offering from Guerrilla Cambridge tasks players with having to survive a conflict between the ISA and Helghast forces. If you're unsure as to <a href=\"/en/games/genre/survival-games/\">what classifies as a survival game</a>, this one is probably the closest you’ll get to that genre on the device.</p><h3 id=\"7.-spelunky\">7. Spelunky</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"spelunky\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/n50JIBBwcbM\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>The PS Vita had some truly impressive titles, and Spelunky is an example of how developers would often push its limits. The 2013 Mossmouth game with an 87 Metacritic rating had procedurally generated levels, meaning that players could keep coming back for unique gameplay every time.</p><h3 id=\"8.-super-stardust-delta\">8. Super Stardust Delta</h3><p>Some of the best Vita titles were the ones that kept things simple, and 2011’s Super Stardust Delta from Housemarque was in that bracket. The 9/10 IGN-rated offering was a twin-stick shooter with quick action gameplay.</p><h3 id=\"9.-rayman-legends\">9. Rayman Legends</h3><p>Rayman has been around in the gaming industry for years, and the handheld option is one of the best PS Vita games. The visually pleasing platformer from Ubisoft Montpellier is just as enjoyable on the smaller screen as it is on consoles.</p><h3 id=\"10.-metal-gear-solid-hd-collection\">10. Metal Gear Solid HD Collection</h3><p>Metal Gear Solid games have dominated the gaming industry for decades, and the 2012 collection for the PS Vita was awesome. It was basically a greatest-hits version of the espionage franchise from Kojima Productions.</p><h3 id=\"11.-soul-sacrifice\">11. Soul Sacrifice</h3><p>There were a few great action RPGs for PS Vita, and Soul Sacrifice was a memorable one. The 2013 Marvelous AQL game had engaging combat and was lauded by GamesRadar as a fresh take on the genre.</p><h3 id=\"12.-child-of-light\">12. Child of Light</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"child-of-light\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/PaxrIFlc6E4\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>You don’t necessarily need a top-spec console for a beautifully crafted RPG, and Ubisoft Montreal proved that with Child of Light in 2014. The emotionally impactful offering achieved a high rating across all publications, and we regard it as a simply must-play title – it’s one of the best games for the Vita device, hands down.</p><h3 id=\"13.-dragons-crown\">13. Dragon's Crown</h3><p>There are only three games left on this list and it seems we’ve forgotten to include any beat ‘em ups – so, here you go. Vanillaware’s Dragon’s Crown in 2013 was a cool side-scrolling fighting game with awesome hand-drawn artwork.</p><h3 id=\"14.-muramasa-rebirth\">14. Muramasa Rebirth</h3><p>Vanillaware made some of the best PS Vita games around, and Muramasa Rebirth was another strong title. This was a 2D action RPG remembered for its eye-catching visuals and in-depth storytelling. If you love mythical Japanese worlds, this one’s for you.</p><h3 id=\"15.-hotline-miami\">15. Hotline Miami</h3><p>Last but not least on this list is Hotline Miami, a 2013 title from Dennaton Games that was awarded 9/10 from IGN. The top-down shooter was loved for its fast-paced nature and surreal narrative. If you like a challenge, then this one’s definitely for you!</p><h2 id=\"is-ps-vita-better-than-the-nintendo-switch?\">Is PS Vita Better than the Nintendo Switch?</h2><p>One of the greatest - or plain out heated - debates of the last decade was whether the PS Vita was better than the Nintendo Switch. This comes down to a matter of <i>opinion</i>, as they both have their strengths and weaknesses. You could argue, though, that average games on Vita are superior to the top offerings on the Switch…</p><h2 id=\"is-the-playstation-vita-discontinued?\">Is the PlayStation Vita Discontinued?</h2><p>This is somewhat of a nostalgic blog, as the PS Vita was discontinued in 2019. However, you can still pick up the device and many of its games from specialist gaming stores around the world.</p><h3 id=\"can-you-play-these-ps-vita-games-now?\">Can You Play These PS Vita Games Now?</h3><p>If you have a PS Vita, you can still find many of these titles and play them. However, if you don’t, there are some <a href=\"/en/blog/game-emulators/\">emulators </a>that allow you to access these games on your computer (it might also be helpful to read our handy guide on <a href=\"/en/games/platform/html5-games/\">how to play HTML5</a> games).

This console could be played on the big screen of your TV, but also in the palm of your hand - something that many gamers had long been longing for.

Below, we took a look at some of the top games, where we broke them down by the titles released since 2017 to the most exciting upcoming releases.</p><p>In most cases getting a hold of a game is fairly simple, where you don't need a degree in <a href=\"/en/games/category/download-games/\">how to download games</a>, while in other instances you might need to do just a little more digging to find out (you can head out to Nintendo's eStore for more info on their games).</p><p>Getting back on track though, it's time to jump into our lists to find out what games made our list.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (2017)</h3><p>The release of a Nintendo console wouldn't be complete without the appearance of either Mario or Link. Breath of the Wild was the first new title in the series to be released for a full console since Skyward Sword on the Wii in 2011 and <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/en/finance/software/index.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">went on to sell 30.65 million copies</a> to date.</p><p>This game was an absolute masterpiece. From traversing up snowy mountains to galloping across desert plains and gliding through the air, the game world was so big, and many people have still yet to explore it all six years after its release.</p><h3 id=\"super-mario-odyssey-(2017)\">2. Super Mario Odyssey (2017)</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"super-mario-odyssey-(2017)\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/Wef0OjBuOTc\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>As with the appearance of Link, the launch of a Nintendo console wouldn't be complete without one of the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://fullsync.co.uk/iconic-video-game-characters/\" rel=\"nofollow\">most iconic video game characters</a> of all time. Mario.</p><p>This 3D Mario platformer was praised for its inventive levels, fun mechanics like the ability to control various creatures with Mario's hat, and its engaging exploration elements. To this day, it has sold in excess of 26 million copies across the globe.</p><h3 id=\"animal-crossing:-new-horizons-(2020)\">3. Animal Crossing: New Horizons (2020)</h3><p>Another popular Nintendo Switch game series. This installment quickly became a cultural phenomenon that has since sold 42.79 million copies.</p><p>It allows players to design and inhabit their own island paradise. You can go fishing, collect bugs, grow crops, explore friends’ islands, and more.</p><h3 id=\"super-smash-bros.-ultimate-(2018)\">4. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (2018)</h3><p>This crossover fighting game included a massive roster of characters from various gaming franchises, making it a favorite for both casual and competitive players. However, despite gamers wanting a Smash Bros. title when the Switch was released, it wasn't until the following year that they would get their hands on it.</p><p>And despite its popularity, selling 31.77 million copies, it did come under some criticism. This is because Nintendo fell into what many consider a greed trap, where much of the game's content was locked behind DLC (downloadable content) paywalls.</p><h3 id=\"mario-kart-8-deluxe-(2017)\">5. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (2017)</h3><p>This one wasn't really a new title. It was an enhanced port of the Wii U game, but it didn't stop this racing title from becoming one of the best-selling games on the Switch with 55.46 million copies sold. It was lauded for its fun tracks, tight controls, and enjoyable multiplayer experience.</p><p>There were many other fantastic games released for the Switch during this period. Some honorable mentions include Super Mario Party, and Pokémon Sword and Shield.</p><h2 id=\"5-best-nintendo-switch-games-of-2023\">5 Best Nintendo Switch Games of 2023</h2><p>2023 has been a very good year for the Switch. Take a look at which titles have found their way into our list of the best new Nintendo Switch games:</p><h3 id=\"the-legend-of-zelda:-tears-of-the-kingdom\">1. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"the-legend-of-zelda:-tears-of-the-kingdom\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/uHGShqcAHlQ\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>We started off the last section with Breath of the Wild, and this section is kicking off with its sequel. Fans of the series had to wait six long years for this game, which returns with a brand-new threat to face, new features like binding items, and new powers.</p><p>It has already sold over 18 million units in its first few months, making it one of the best-selling games of the year.</p><h3 id=\"pikmin-4\">2. Pikmin 4</h3><p>A game that is probably designed for children but also enjoyed by adults as well, Pikmin 4 is the latest installment of the series. The last entry came out ten years ago, and this new game keeps the same fun with its real-time strategy elements but enhances the experience by introducing the ability to customize your character.</p><h3 id=\"cassette-beasts\">3. Cassette Beasts</h3><p>Released in April, this indie game grew quite a following quickly. It is inspired by the Pokémon franchise but offers its own take on collecting and battling monsters.</p><p>What makes this game stand out the most is how much more complex and challenging it is, being more tailored to older gamers, whereas Pokémon has been criticized for being aimed more at children.</p><h3 id=\"metroid-prime-remastered\">4. Metroid Prime Remastered</h3><p>While many people have been calling for a new Metroid Prime game for years, sadly it hasn't arrived. But what has been delivered is a remaster of an older title that still managed to win over gamers and critics alike, with press outlets like Nintendo Life scoring it a massive 10/10.</p><p>This brought the classic title into the modern world for a whole new audience. It has impressed with its combination of first-person shooter gameplay and side-scrolling mechanics.</p><h3 id=\"octopath-traveler-ii\">5.

When you’re done reading, you’re bound to want to pick up a headset to start playing!</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidanger}}</p><h2 id=\"our-definitive-list-of-the-top-12-vr-games\">Our Definitive List of the Top 12 VR Games</h2><p>Like many of you reading this, we’ve played <i>a lot</i> of VR games over the last years, and our experts have collated the best offerings. Here are our top picks:</p><h3 id=\"1.-half-life-alyx\">1. Half-Life Alyx</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"1.-half-life-alyx\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/O2W0N3uKXmo\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>If you’re looking for one of the best VR games in the world right now, Half-Life Alyx is <i>the </i>game to try. The offering from Valve earned widespread critical acclaim and successfully took the series to the next level. These games have always made players feel as if they were part of the action, but VR enhances that massively. This hugely popular title was released in 2020, but got a major update in 2023 so lit that it is a must for any gamer out there.</p><h3 id=\"2.-the-walking-dead:-saints-&-sinners\">2. The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners</h3><p>If a zombie apocalypse happened in real life, it probably wouldn’t be much fun. Then again, in a controlled virtual setting, battling the undead can be an insane amount of fun! The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners gives you the chance to step into the world of the AMC series to see if you can survive the harsh world better than Rick Grimes & Co. The title received an update in 2023, which was free to existing players and improved the experience in a huge way that's worth checking for yourself.</p><h3 id=\"3.-cities-vr\">3. Cities VR</h3><p>Cities VR was one of the best VR games in 2022, with high ratings from critics. The Oculus Quest VR game gives players a chance to become the mayor and build their ultimate metropolis. VR games like this allow players to get more hands-on with their creativity in a completely immersive setting.</p><h3 id=\"4.-microsoft-flight-simulator-40th-anniversary-edition\">4. Microsoft Flight Simulator 40th Anniversary Edition</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"4.-microsoft-flight-simulator-40th-anniversary-edition\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/71-HT2XQvlY\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Microsoft Flight Simulator might not be for everyone, but those who like it, absolutely <i>love </i>it! Hardcore avgeeks and Sim enthusiasts will bend over backwards to get a few hours with this title, and for good reason. Flight Sim has evolved and become so realistic over the years that even real pilots (maybe l<i>icensed</i> pilots is a more accurate description in this case) use it for practice. For anyone who’s dreamed of flying an aircraft, the VR version of this classic title is a must-play experience.</p><h3 id=\"5.-jurassic-world-aftermath\">5. Jurassic World Aftermath</h3><p>Jurassic World spawned several great games across a range of devices. Jurassic World Aftermath is one of the best, as the VR title puts players in the center of the dinosaur-infested world of the movies. If you found the ferocious beasts scary in the recent films, just wait until you’re viewing them from a first-person perspective in the highly immersive VR game. It gets regular updates, with brand-new content released in 2023.</p><h3 id=\"6.-tetris-effect:-connected\">6. Tetris Effect: Connected</h3><p>Tetris, one of the most iconic and oldest video games, has evolved with every development in the gaming industry, so it’s no surprise that there’s now a new <i>VR </i>offering. Tetris Effect: Connected highlights how old-school titles can be adapted into VR games easily and gives players a new way to experience the legendary block puzzle game. It's even already being described as one of the best VR games in 2023!</p><h3 id=\"7.-batman:-arkham-vr\">7. Batman: Arkham VR</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"7.-batman:-arkham-vr\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/QRfxn_WjDKE\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>A ton of the best titles on the market are likely to get adapted into VR games in the future. One title that set the tone for this was Batman: Arkham VR. The offering from Rocksteady Studios gave players the chance to become the Caped Crusader and explore the settings from the other games in the series from a first-person perspective.</p><h3 id=\"8.-no-man’s-sky-vr\">8. No Man’s Sky VR</h3><p>One day, it may be possible for people to explore the universe as easily as it is to pop to the convenience store in 2023. But, let’s face it, that’s unlikely to happen in our lifetime, isn’t it? No Man’s Sky VR is the next best thing for people who want to explore distant planets. The procedurally generated game gives you the chance to go to countless places in the universe, and many people think it’s an upgrade on the original title.</p><h3 id=\"9.-subnautica\">9. Subnautica</h3><p>There’s likely to be a huge market for tactical games in VR, as players can explore and interact with their surroundings. Subnautica is one of the best on the market now, and it expands on the hugely popular Windows game that’s been out since 2014. This game is accessible for a wide range of playing abilities, but if you want to know <a href=\"/en/games/genre/strategy-games/\">how to get better at strategy games</a>, you might want to start off with a non-VR type of game first.</p><h3 id=\"10.-vader-immortal:-a-star-wars-vr-series\">10. Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series</h3><p>There are countless Star Wars games on the market, but few of them give players the chance to work alongside the legendary Darth Vader. Vader Immortal is a trilogy of VR games in which you take on the role of a smuggler performing tasks for the powerful Sith.</p><h3 id=\"11.-among-us-vr\">11. Among Us VR</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"11.-among-us-vr\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/m9Z6GjQatek\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Among Us VR is one of the best VR games in 2023 because it has taken a popular party game and made it even better. The VR version allows players to get fully swept up in the cartoon setting of the InnerSloth title. Part of the beauty of this game is collaborating with others, and VR makes you feel a closer connection to the other players. Among Us is totally free to play, but the VR version will set you back $10.</p><h3 id=\"12.-phasmophobia\">12. Phasmophobia</h3><p>One of the best applications for VR is to generate experiences that scare the hell out of users. The horror genre is thriving on the platform, and there are loads of VR games that give players the chance to creep themselves out. One of the best games that achieves this is Phasmophobia. You get the chance to investigate haunted locations and encounter all sorts of ghosts and eerie phenomena.</p><h2 id=\"are-vr-games-the-future-of-gaming?\">Are VR Games the Future of Gaming?</h2><p>Many people believe that VR is the technology of the future, and VR games will soon become dominant in the industry. Developers have always strived to create realistic and immersive games, and VR offers them the potential to do that. Taking that into account, it might be a safe bet to say that yeah, at some point VR games could be the future of gaming.</p><h2 id=\"how-much-does-a-vr-game-cost?\">How Much Does a VR Game Cost?</h2><p>The cost of VR games varies depending on what you’re playing and the platform you are using. If you’re a sucker for deals, you’ll find there are heaps of free VR games to choose from. But some VR games don’t come cheap, for example, Microsoft Flight Simulator 40th Anniversary Edition costs $60.</p><h2 id=\"what-is-the-#1-vr-game?\">What is the #1 VR Game?</h2><p>Just like like any other type of game or platform (such as our games listed under <a href=\"/en/games/platform/mac-games/\">Mac Games</a>) this is really a matter of opinion. Sure, anybody with a Reddit account has their idea of the perfect VR game everybody has got to try. But there are so many kinds of VR titles to choose from! Even looking at something as simple as choosing the best free VR means there's a bunch of other VR games - games you need to pay for - to choose from! According to many critics though, Half-Life Alyx is one of <i>the </i>greatest offerings to date. </p>","date":"5/29/2017"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"VR Games of 2023","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/vr-games-1.webp"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"12932"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/management-games/"},"strings":{"title":"The Top 20 Management Games You Should Play Today!","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"360000","description":"<p>Have you got exceptional time-management skills?

Five of the top resource management games are:</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/xnHuPziWKJE\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><ol><li><strong>Minecraft </strong>– one of the most iconic management games out there allows you to play in two modes: survival (limited resources) and creative (freedom to go wild).</li><li><strong>Factorio </strong>– build factories of increasing complexity in order to create and manage various resources</li><li><strong>Dyson Sphere Program </strong>– take the idea of building factories to create and manage resources to an intergalactic level in this space-theme management game.</li><li><strong>Planet Crafter </strong>– collect resources and use them wisely so you can turn a hostile alien planet into an oxygen-rich place where humans can survive.</li><li><strong>Age of Empires II</strong> – the sequel to Age of Empires is just as much of a classic and one of the ultimate <a href=\"/en/games/genre/castle-games/\">castle games</a> with resource management qualities.</li></ol><h3 id=\"sport-management-games\">Sport Management Games</h3><p>Almost everyone loves sport. A lot of people play sports, many more watch, but only a few manage teams. If you’ve ever had the urge to manage a group of athletes and compete against the best, you need to try these sports management games:</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/LZgvHnZgL7Q\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><ol><li><strong>Motorsport Manager</strong> – take the driving seat in this realistic sim where you manage all aspects of a Formula 1 team.</li><li><strong>Cricket Captain</strong> – handle your bowlers, light a fire under your batters, and get fielders in order with this cricket management game.</li><li><strong>Baseball Highlights 2045</strong> – this baseball management game isn’t for you if you want realism, but the short 10-minute games are great for bitesize entertainment.</li><li><strong>Soccer Manager 2023</strong> – manage every aspect of a team, from nurturing youth players to handling wages and transfers with this soccer management game.</li><li><strong>Tennis Elbow Manager 2 </strong>– think you’re a tennis ace?

Although building isn’t always a central component of management games, it is popular within the genre. Why? Because it plays into the idea that you’re a godlike figure who creates and, subsequently, rules over worlds.</p><p>What’s important to understand is that building should be taken in its broadest sense i.e. we’re not just talking about constructing buildings. Soccer management games, for example, require you to build teams. Money management games require you to build a business empire. So, while there will always be an element of building something, it won’t always be bricks-and-mortar structures.</p><h2 id=\"what-are-the-types-of-management-games?\">What Are the Types of Management Games?</h2><p>City builders are among the most popular management games you can play. Does this mean the Sims is a management game? Yes, it is. Technically it falls into the subgenre of construction and management simulation aka a building sim.</p><p>Other subgenres with sports management games, such as those focused on soccer. You can also play business management games and time management games where you have to manage various processes within specific time periods.</p><h2 id=\"what-is-a-management-games-training-method?\">What Is a Management Games Training Method?</h2><p>A management games training method is the fact skills you need to master in the digital world can be applied to other aspects of life. For example, free time management games require you to handle things such as supply chains where growth, imports, and exports are controlled by time limits. Doing this requires an ability to plan, think logically, and organize various moving parts to create an efficient system. Honing these skills through time management online games is one example of how this genre can be used for training purposes.</p><p>If you’re a master of management, give some of our top-rated management games a try right now!</p>","date":"8/3/2023"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Management games","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/management-games-1.webp"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"16386"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/hunger-games-videogames/"},"strings":{"title":"The Hunger Games Video Games Are Catching Fire","category":"Insights","author":"PLARIUM STAFF","readTime":"300000","description":"<p>Since its inception all the way back in 2008, The Hunger Games franchise has gripped its audience with a compelling narrative, epic action sequences, and heart-wrenching, emotional scenes.</p><p>The birth of this brutal spectacle sparked a series of inspired video games, taking advantage of the dystopian concepts from the franchise to create Hunger Games-inspired video games that captured the adrenaline-pumping tension of the original books and films.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidanger}}</p><p>Ahead of the highly anticipated prequel, we'll delve into the exhilarating world of The Hunger Games. We'll explore the twisted fantasies and immersive storytelling that provided the foundations for the Hunger Games video games that now dominate the gaming industry.</p><h2 id=\"the-hunger-games-video-game\">The Hunger Games Video Game</h2><p>With such a successful movie franchise, you would have expected the series to expand into the gaming industry and make the most of the dystopian killing-fest's potential a Hunger Games video game is sure to give us.</p><p>There has been <i>one </i>Hunger Games video game officially tied to the franchise, but it left a lot to be desired considering the incredible possibilities. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://thehungergames.fandom.com/wiki/The_Hunger_Games:_Girl_On_Fire\" rel=\"nofollow\">The Hunger Games: Girl on Fire</a> was released along with the first film. The game was a mobile, <i>IOS-only</i> game that followed Katniss on a basic, pixelated escape from the feared tracker-jacker bees.</p><p>The game provided a quick burst of fun for mobile game players, but it felt like the franchise missed a trick in not seizing the gaming opportunity that they created - one that other developers pounced upon.</p><h2 id=\"other-hunger-games-video-games\">Other Hunger Games Video Games</h2><p>The series has had a really wide-reaching effect on the gaming industry, and there are plenty of popular games that could be said to draw considerable inspiration from Suzanne Collins’ series.</p><h3 id=\"minecraft\">Minecraft</h3><p>The first of these Hunger Games video games is one of the most beloved games of all time: Minecraft.</p><p>Though the game has a multitude of playable formats and offline games, one of the most popular <a href=\"/en/games/\">online games</a> is Hunger Games. The servers see between 12 and 100 players launched into a map, locked to a single-block podium to await the start of the game.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/ET9n1aKzY-0\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>A bunch of chests bearing weapons, food, and other useful inventory-fillers tease players in the middle of the podium circle and also can be found scattered across the map. As the countdown ends, players rush to fill their inventories for the inevitable showdown that will leave just one player standing: the Hunger Games video games champion.</p><p>It’s an epic mini-game that can really get you sweating, and the game makes no attempt to hide where the concept for the dynamic came from.</p><h3 id=\"fortnite\">Fortnite</h3><p>Everyone has heard of Fortnite, one of the biggest games of the last decade. This Hunger Games-inspired video game is one that took the world by storm after its launch in 2017.</p><p>Fortnite - the <a href=\"/en/games/category/free-to-play/\">free-to-play</a> battle royale game - is available on most consoles and is estimated to be played by over three million gamers worldwide. The game continues to receive new collaborations and updates to this day and shows no signs of slowing down.</p><p>Rather than a tantalizing countdown standing on a podium, an airbus flies across the map, dropping players off for them to find their own landing. From there, players must hunt each other down as a fatal storm encloses the map, eventually shrinking the playable area to the size of a pinhead where the remaining survivors must battle it out in an epic clash of skill.</p><p>The dynamic strays a lot farther from that in The Hunger Games, but the original series definitely inspired the creation of the hit game.</p><h3 id=\"cod:-warzone\">COD: Warzone</h3><p>COD: Warzone is perhaps the most popular of these Hunger Games inspired video games amongst the competitive gaming crowd. Merging the realism and violence you'd expect of COD, along with the novelty and fun of Hunger Games video games, Warzone has emerged as one of the most successful, free-to-play games in recent years.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/i8-U61P_7C8\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Players must arm themselves with weapons and medical equipment before engaging in battle with other participants, much like in the original series. Though, while Katniss was armed with a bow and arrow, Warzone players can strap up with the likes of a TAQ-56 assault rifle – even Katniss or Finnick wouldn't stand much of a chance up against one of these.</p><h2 id=\"what-we-know-about-the-hunger-games:-the-ballad-of-songbirds-&-snakes\">What we Know about The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes</h2><p>The fifth film in The Hunger Games series serves as a prequel to Mockingjay - Part 2, the fourth film based on Suzanne Collins' 2010 novel. Set 60 years before the first film, the upcoming title will follow an 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow before he becomes the tyrannical leader of Panem that we are introduced to in the original series.</p><p>For the 10th annual reaping, Coriolanus is paired with Lucy Baird, the tribute from District 12, as her mentor. The film follows the relationship the two build throughout the lead-up, duration, and aftermath of the games, and reveals who is a songbird, and who is a snake.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/RDE6Uz73A7g\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Judging by the villainous version of Snow we see in the later films - we might already have some presumptions about just who turns out to be a snake…</p><p>The trailer teases the opening of the game– the heart-in-mouth moments that are felt as the time ticks down toward the start of the reaping, where tributes charge toward their loot and inevitable demise. It's this captivating, terrifying experience that has inspired a fleet of Hunger Games video games.</p><h2 id=\"looking-ahead\">Looking Ahead</h2><p>So, as we are forced to wait until the release of The Hunger Games prequel, there is no shortage of Hunger Games video games that fans can delve into and whet their appetite before its release.</p><p>Though no official Hunger Games video games are tied to the series, the plethora of industry-leading games that the series has inspired leaves little to be desired in survival-game entertainment.

The game from Rockstar North has sold more than 110 million copies and is one of the most critically praised games ever made.</p><h3 id=\"3.-roblox\">3. Roblox</h3><p>Though not technically a game on its own, Roblox is one of the oldest sandbox titles and it's still hugely popular in 2023, being one of the biggest platforms for game creations to date. The title from Roblox Corporation first dropped in 2006 and has gone from strength to strength since then.

It’s like Minecraft as it involves digging, mining, and crafting. The aim of the game in the Re-Logic title is to build powerful settlements and protect them from powerful bosses. There are various ways to play the game, with players having the choice of collaborating or competing with one another.</p><h3 id=\"5.-no-man’s-sky\">5. No Man’s Sky</h3><p>No Man’s Sky is one of the most ambitious sci-fi games of recent years, and it displays the overwhelming potential of procedurally generated sandboxes. The 2016 offering from Hello Games has billions of planets for players to explore, and they all offer unique experiences. It faced some criticism when it was first released but thanks to updates and improvements No Man’s Sky has become one of the leading sandbox games on the market.</p><h3 id=\"6.-factorio\">6. Factorio</h3><p>2016 was a huge year for sandbox titles, with Factorio another worthy installment to the genre. The title from Wube Software puts players in charge of complex factories. The aim of the game is to research technology and expand an industrial empire. This is a complicated game with a lot of intricacies and appeals to players in search of challenging sandbox games.</p><h3 id=\"7.-stardew-valley\">7. Stardew Valley</h3><p>Stardew Valley also dropped in 2016 and has been captivating players ever since. The ConcernedApe title offers a relaxing gameplay experience for players who want to discover what it’s like to run a farm. There’s an immersive world to explore with plenty of hidden features, which is why the game has shipped more than 10 million copies across multiple platforms since its release.</p><h3 id=\"8.-rimworld\">8. RimWorld</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"rimworld\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/TH545Ftzebs\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>For players in search of recent games that have gone on to become instant hits, RimWorld is one of the best options. The offering from Ludeon Studios came out in 2017 and was praised for offering an immersive sci-fi experience. The game is set on a distant planet, with players having to scavenge and build a functioning colony.</p><h3 id=\"9.-subnautica\">9. Subnautica</h3><p>Subnautica is another 2018 title that takes players on a journey to a distant world. This one isn’t a traditional space offering, though. Instead, players have the chance to explore vast underwater realms on an alien ocean planet. It’s a tough environment that will appeal to anyone in search of a slightly different playing experience.</p><h3 id=\"10.-garry’s-mod\">10. Garry’s Mod</h3><p style=\"text-align:center;\" id=\"garry’s-mod\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/AkEhqYJBRW8\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Garry’s Mod from Facepunch Studios is one of the games that kickstarted the whole genre. The 2004 title built a strong player base, and this allowed the game to grow and develop through various mods in the years since its release. There are endless possibilities for players to have fun within the game world, which is why it’s still popular to this day.</p><h2 id=\"what-does-a-sandbox-game-mean?\">What Does a Sandbox Game Mean?</h2><p>The basic premise of these games is that they emphasize player freedom and creativity. Developers create a vast virtual world in which players can move about however they want. Usually, you have the chance to shape the world to your own preferences, and the focus is on player-driven experiences. This means that there are almost <i>endless </i>possibilities! That's right - these games can carry on for a <i>very </i>long time.</p><h2 id=\"what-kind-of-game-is-a-sandbox?\">What Kind of Game is a Sandbox?</h2><p>Since sandbox games can be part of virtually any genre, many are <a href=\"/en/games/platform/pc-games/\">PC games</a>, as they need high specifications to run on max quality. They can be anything from sci-fi offerings to action-adventure games, with the key feature being that players can travel around the playable landscape at their leisure.</p><p><i>Sandbox titles differ from open world games</i> in that players usually have complete control over their actions in the former. In the latter, there is a vast playing area, but - and it's an important difference - players are led by a central narrative that features main quests along with side missions. Some titles can cross between the two game categories depending on the mode you play. For instance, <strong>Grand Theft Auto V </strong>is an open world game in its single player mode. <strong>Grand Theft Auto V Online</strong>, on the other hand, is a sandbox game in which players are free to do what they want.</p><h2 id=\"what-is-the-ultimate-sandbox-game?\">What is the Ultimate Sandbox Game?</h2><p>The most successful of all time is Minecraft - so it could also be named the ultimate game since basing this title on other factors might be difficult, verging on not being possible. Minecraft is still the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.visualcapitalist.com/cp/ranked-the-best-selling-video-games-in-history/\" rel=\"nofollow\">best-selling video game</a> in history, with more than 238 million sales.

Endless Legend</h3><p>Endless Legend sticks out for its exploration aspect. It offers a wide range of differing terrains across the map and a variety of different quests.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/OsMa9EC3nf8\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>You can build major cities or live out a nomadic lifestyle in the game. The tactical combat is slightly lacking in the game which certainly holds it back, but it still offers an immersive experience when it comes to 4X games.</p><h3 id=\"2.-age-of-wonders-iii\">2. Age of Wonders III</h3><p>Age of Wonders is a legendary fantasy series that has for a long time been a key part of the 4X games genre.</p><p>All of the series' titles have been popular and incredibly successful, but the third installment in the series represents the pick of the bunch.</p><p>With mythical characters and classical empire-building, the game offers a top experience when it comes to turn-based strategy games.</p><h3 id=\"3.-warhammer-40k-gladius-–-relics-of-war\">3. Warhammer 40k Gladius – Relics of War</h3><p>Warhammer 40k 4X games don't have a reputation for being the leading games on the market. Gladius - Relics of War is a rare example of a Warhammer game that perfectly suits the 4X games genre.</p><p>The game has a focus on warfare - you can use tanks which can be upgraded. Your army can be improved in terms of manpower.</p><p>There is no democracy in this game, just all-out warfare. Warhammer offers the closest replication to <a href=\"/en/games/genre/shooting-games/\">shooter games</a> when it comes to 4X games.</p><h3 id=\"4.-europa-universalis-iv\">4. Europa Universalis IV</h3><p>Europa Universalis' niche is that the game offers a level of realism that no other 4X game has touched upon.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/hWQ8AXwHPQg\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>The game takes place in a fictional version of Europe including several nations. The game offers a history lesson - the timeline of the game spans from the Middle Ages to the Industrial Revolution. Reminiscent of games like Civilization, you plot your next move across a map and watch your decisions unfold globally.</p><p>Its wide-ranging history allows the player to conquer all of Europe, a level of achievement that most other games simply do not offer. This game is a fairly lengthy commitment, but it's incredibly rewarding.</p><h3 id=\"5.-galactic-civilizations-iii\">5. Galactic Civilizations III</h3><p>Galactic Civilizations III offers a unique experience that cannot be compared to other 4X games. Each save game involves a new randomly generated galaxy for players to conquer.</p><p>This means that every fresh game involves a new challenge with different strategies. If gaining control of unique galaxies is your thing then Galactic Civilizations III could be the space-based 4X game for you.</p><h3 id=\"6.-crusader-kings-3\">6. Crusader Kings 3</h3><p>Crusader Kings is almost a sub-genre in itself, as it intervenes the RPG theme with the 4X games genre.</p><p>It is a medieval ruler simulator that takes place over a long period of time. Hard work and excellent strategy of a future generation's ancestors could lead to eventual success in this game.</p><h3 id=\"7.-shadow-empire\">7. Shadow Empire</h3><p>Shadow Empire does not offer impressive graphics or user interface. But it nails all of the other necessary aspects of a 4X game.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/BL5I_QfnGyo\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>It is a 2D game that focuses on offering in-depth strategic options rather than graphical features. It takes place in a post-apocalyptic world and warfare takes precedence in this one.</p><p>Shadow Empire is ideal for those in search of a challenging experience in a randomly generated world. It defines the traditional 4X genre without the modern advancements of gaming.</p><h3 id=\"8.-civilization-6\">8. Civilization 6</h3><p>Civilization 6 has been on the market for seven years now and it is still possibly the most popular 4X game available on PC. Known for appealing to a wide range of gamers, Civilization involves guiding your own nation from ruins to huge riches. Your nation is built from land you can transform into major cities by making skyscrapers and other significant architecture.</p><p>Added DLC content even offers realistic additions to the game such as global warming. Civilization has fantasy aspect, you must use strategy to solve real-world problems within your own fantasy nation.</p><h3 id=\"9.-stellaris\">9. Stellaris</h3><p>Stellaris is certainly the leading title when it comes to space 4X games. It offers a galaxy filled with content, especially with added <a href=\"/en/glossary/dlc/\">DLC content</a>.</p><p>The aim of the Stellaris 4X game is essentially to take control of the galaxy. It is a turnless game, which means players can avoid the tedious wait for their opponent to make their move.</p><p>Stellaris may not be the most in-depth offering when it comes to 4X games, but it is a rare example of a 4X game that has been perfectly developed from top to bottom.</p><h3 id=\"10.-old-world\">10. Old World</h3><p>Old World is a modern take on the traditional 4X games of the past based on land terrain. The game does not last a significant amount of time, due to its 200 turn limit.</p><p>Old World offers a level of immersion that most other games don't. The characters you control have unique personalities and traits. This allows players to become much more connected to their empire than in most 4X games.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/4ONKy-CK0zg\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Here we have summarized the leading options when it comes to 4X games in 2023.

So, what is it that makes retro gaming appealing?</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidanger}}</p><h2 id=\"understanding-the-allure-of-retro-gaming\">Understanding the Allure of Retro Gaming</h2><p>Retro gaming, a term often synonymous with vintage games, refers to video games from the 1970s to the early 2000s. Anything can fall into this bracket, whether it's arcade cabinets or home consoles.</p><p>Retro gaming is making a remarkable comeback, but why? It's not just about revisiting the past; it's a nostalgic journey that brings players back to the charming simplicity of earlier times. The games of this era, renowned for their innovative mechanics, offer an enjoyable experience shrouded in a unique <i>vintage </i>charm.</p><p>The resurgence of retro gaming goes beyond playing old games on <a href=\"/en/games/platform/mobile-games/\">modern platforms</a>; it's about infusing new life into the nostalgic art, soundtracks, and gameplay that defined a generation of gaming.</p><h2 id=\"top-5-retro-games-on-current-gen-consoles\">Top 5 Retro Games on Current Gen Consoles</h2><p>Today's video game landscape draws significantly from the retro classics, and contemporary platforms have opened the door to a new wave of retro-inspired gaming.

Here are our picks for the top five retro games that have made a triumphant return on modern platforms.</p><h3 id=\"1.-super-mario-world-(nintendo-switch)\">1. Super Mario World (Nintendo Switch)</h3><p>Nintendo’s Super Mario World on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) redefined platform gaming upon its release in 1990. Shigeru Miyamoto’s Super Mario Bros had already changed the game upon its release, with gamers experiencing its innovative smooth scrolling and precise controls breathed new life into the genre, making Super Mario Bros a commercial and critical success.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/s2bTQK6vbKI\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>Super Mario World took this one step further, using the 16-bit graphics of the SNES to take everything to the next level. Now, there’s an overworld, along with a greater variety of levels and monsters to encounter. And this was Yoshi’s debut too! The game's enduring popularity is evidenced by its active presence in the speedrunning community and various remakes.</p><h3 id=\"2.-resident-evil-4-(nintendo-switch,-xbox-one-ps4,-ps5)\">2. Resident Evil 4 (Nintendo Switch, Xbox One PS4, PS5)</h3><p>Capcom’s survival horror classic quite literally changed the genre with Resident Evil 4. Released in 2005, the game’s reveal proved to be at odds with diehard fans who were expecting another encounter with the devilishly evil corporation Umbrella and its merry collection of zombies and other unsightly monsters.</p><p>Resident Evil 4 immediately threw this into the trash, starting the game with the demise of Umbrella, with returning protagonist Leon Kennedy traveling to Spain to save the president’s daughter. Was it corny? Yes. Was it just full of ridiculous twists and gameplay scenarios? Yes.</p><p>Resident Evil 4 reinvented the over-the-shoulder third-person shooting genre, and its influence in this genre can be felt today, whether it’s The Last of Us, Gears of War, or anything else. It all points back to RE4. It even got a remake in 2023, too.</p><h3 id=\"3.-the-legend-of-zelda---ocarina-of-time-(nintendo-switch)\">3. The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time (Nintendo Switch)</h3><p>Another Nintendo classic, there’s no escaping it. This 1998 masterpiece <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.ask.com/culture/legend-of-zelda-retrospective\" rel=\"nofollow\">took the world by storm</a>, setting a new standard for 3D adventure gaming. With an expansive world to explore and a multitude of puzzles to solve, Ocarina of Time encapsulated what made the Zelda series so beloved while adding new layers of depth.</p><p>For many gamers, this was their first big Zelda experience as they clutched at their weirdly shaped Nintendo 64 controller. OoT brought a new sense of adventure as you traveled through time to fight Ganondorf with your Master Sword, switching between kid and adult Link when necessary.</p><p>The game's influence is still felt in contemporary titles, and it remains a fan favorite through various rereleases. It even had a remake of the Nintendo 3DS too that’s well worth checking out.</p><h3 id=\"4.-doom-(nintendo-switch,-xbox-one,-ps4,-ps5)\">4. Doom (Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PS4, PS5)</h3><p>Doom took the gaming world by storm in 1993. If Wolfenstein opened the door to first-person shooters, Doom ran through it with a chainsaw. Its visceral, fast-paced action experience was unparalleled at the time. Developed by id Software, now part of Microsoft, and led by John Romero and John Carmack, Doom's gameplay was straightforward yet addictive, requiring players to navigate through levels and dispatch hordes of demonic enemies with Doomguy (yes, that’s his name - don’t question it) fighting to survive the hell on Mars.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/BkaC1-QoraY\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>The game's legacy persists today, with source ports and console releases still enjoyed by many. Today, it’s now quite affectionately known as a boomer shooter, but its gameplay, level design, and catchy soundtrack make it forever relevant.</p><h3 id=\"5.-final-fantasy-vii-(nintendo-switch,-xbox-one,-ps4,-ps5)\">5. Final Fantasy VII (Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PS4, PS5)</h3><p>Final Fantasy VII was a pivotal moment for the franchise, with Square Soft (now Square Enix) moving the franchise from 2D to 3D, which also took advantage of the massive space that moving to the CD format allowed. This is where CGI cutscenes become a thing with the franchise.</p><p>The game followed Cloud, a 1st Class Soldier tasked with supporting a fringe-eco group in saving the world from an evil corporation. Along with the legendary soundtrack and story the game is known for, it also introduced gamers to the JRPG genre, as well as the turn-based combat we came to love.</p><p>The original version is available on basically every format, plus, there is also a new remake for players to experience!</p><p>Whether you're a long-time fan or a newcomer to these games, there's no denying the timeless allure of these iconic titles. Enjoy your trip down memory lane!</p><h2 id=\"the-future-of-retro-gaming:-a-sneak-peek\">The Future of Retro Gaming: A Sneak Peek</h2><p>As we navigate the latter half of 2023, the gaming landscape is abuzz with anticipation.

Though details remain scarce, the game development community's continued interest in the retro style assures us that the classic, timeless appeal of pixelated graphics and 8-bit music is here to stay.</p><h3 id=\"is-it-legal-to-play-retro-games?\">Is it Legal to Play Retro Games?</h3><p>Yes, as long as you own the original game and console, it's completely legal to play.</p><h3 id=\"is-retro-gaming-a-hobby?\">Is Retro Gaming a Hobby?</h3><p>For many enthusiasts, retro gaming is a much-loved hobby that allows them to relive childhood memories and enjoy classic gameplay mechanics to the fullest - so yes!

Super Mario Bros. (1993)</h3><p>Super Mario Bros. from Rocky Morton and Annabel Jankel deserves a mention in this list as it’s well worth checking out. Despite being a commercial and critical bomb at the time of its release, it has gone on to become a cult classic. Do you agree with the critics who claim it’s one of the worst films ever made, or are you on team #misunderstoodclassic?</p><h3 id=\"mortal-kombat-annihilation-(1997)\">2.

This sequel to Mortal Kombat (released two years prior, in 1995) was another film that was panned by critics and failed at the box office. However, for lovers of Mortal Kombat 3 it might be hit or miss: this video game movie featured many of the game characters - something that did work for many fans that were happy to see their favorite on the big screen, while others were severely disappointed in their portrayal.</p><h3 id=\"pokémon-detective-pikachu-(2019)\">3. Pokémon Detective Pikachu (2019)</h3><p>At the time of its release, Pokémon Detective Pikachu reached <i>number two</i> in the revenue rankings of video game movies, with a worldwide take of $433 million. The offering from Rob Letterman is an excellent hybrid of CGI and live footage, with a strong performance from <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/detective-pikachu-how-ryan-reynolds-was-cast-pokemon/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Ryan Reynolds</a> that appeals to non gamers as well as big fans of the augmented reality game of Pokémon Go. </p><h3 id=\"tomb-raider-(2018)\">4. Tomb Raider (2018)</h3><p>Tomb Raider is one of the world’s most iconic video game franchises, with Lara Croft among the top characters ever created. She has been adapted into various video game movies, with the most recent coming in 2018. The offering from Roar Uthaug featured Alicia Vikander in the title role, and she portrayed a raw and rugged version of Croft. This follows the 2001, well, fiasco, starring Angelina Jolie in the role of video game's heroine. </p><h3 id=\"the-angry-birds-movie-(2016)\">5. The Angry Birds Movie (2016)</h3><p>Angry Birds is one of the most famous <a href=\"/en/games/platform/html5-games/\">HTML5 games</a> ever made, and it helped the mobile gaming industry to boom that demonstrated that games can be played on touch screens too. </p><p style=\"text-align:center;\"><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/QRmKa7vvct4\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\"></iframe></p><p>The Angry Birds Movie was a great extension of the franchise, and it grossed <i>more than $352 million worldwide</i>.

Sonic the Hedgehog (2020)</h3><p>Many critics regard Sonic the Hedgehog as one of the best video game movies <i>ever </i>made! Considering the outburst it initially received when fans saw Sonic's design, the studios quickly went away and made Sonic look less monstrous. It received a lot of <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https://youtu.be/3Z9AxJw-Xbo\" rel=\"nofollow\">positive reviews from critics</a>, who said it managed to capture the charm of the SEGA games perfectly.</p><h3 id=\"sonic-the-hedgehog-2-(2022)\">7. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022)</h3><p>After Sonic the Hedgehog became one of the most popular video game movies, it was no surprise that it led to a sequel. The 2022 offering from Jeff Fowler was another critical success and achieved an even higher take at the box office than its predecessor. Plus, surprisingly enough, Idris Elba doesn't hold <i>any </i>punches when it comes to playing Knuckles.</p><h3 id=\"the-super-mario-bros.-movie-(2023)\">8. The Super Mario Bros.

Though their small stature might not impress next to the modern intimidating monoliths of the static consoles like the PS5 or Series X, old and <a href=\"/en/games/category/new-games/\">new games</a> available on these platforms can easily measure up.</p><p>With that in mind, let's look at 12 of the best handheld gaming console systems ever released. From the retro to the new, here's a taste of what the best handheld gaming console market has had to offer.</p><p style=\"text-align:center;\">{{banner:middleraidanger}}</p><h2 id=\"the-top-12-handheld-game-consoles\">The Top 12 Handheld Game Consoles</h2><h3 id=\"1.-the-nintendo-game-boy\">1. The Nintendo Game Boy</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: April 21, 1989</li><li>Launch Price: $89.99</li></ul><p>Where better to start in a list of the best handheld game console systems than the granddaddy of them all? Nintendo's Game Boy was a revelation in mobile entertainment when it launched. The modern handheld gaming market owes everything to the Game Boy and its little monochrome green-and-black screen. With a vertical layout and two action buttons, the Game Boy was a simple system, and it didn’t need to be anything else.</p><h3 id=\"2.-the-sony-psp\">2. The Sony PSP</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: March 24, 2005</li><li>Launch Price: $249</li></ul><p>Sony’s first entry into the handheld game console market came fresh off the success of the PlayStation 2 system. At the time, the PSP was a more powerful system than its Nintendo competitors, offering many 3D games whereas the GBA and DS more heavily embraced 2D. Perhaps the only classic handheld to really challenge Nintendo, the PSP was a much-loved system.</p><h3 id=\"3.-the-ds-line\">3. The DS Line</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: November 21, 2004</li><li>Launch Price: $149</li></ul><p>When it was first announced, nobody was sure what to make of the DS's eponymous dual screen and touchscreen features. Opening like a book, the DS turned out to be a fantastic handheld game console. The DS continued the Game Boy legacy with continuations of handheld Tetris, Mario, Metroid, Castlevania, etc.</p><h3 id=\"4.-the-valve-steam-deck\">4. The Valve Steam Deck</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: February 25, 2022</li><li>Launch Price: $399</li></ul><p>Valve's Steam Deck isn't the first handheld to enable desktop games on the go, but it is among the best handheld game console systems. It’s one of the larger and heavier systems here, but in terms of flexibility, nothing beats the PC backing on which the Steam Deck operates. Almost any <a href=\"/en/games/category/download-games/\">games download</a> can be placed on the Steam Deck.</p><h3 id=\"5.-my-arcade\">5. My Arcade</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: January 2018</li><li>Launch Price: Varies</li></ul><p>The My Arcade line of systems strikes a curious balance between official devices and custom hardware. Some systems focus on miniaturized arcade cabinets which host hundreds of games. Others, like the Pac-Man system, focus entirely on one game. These niche machines are fantastic for hardcore fans of specific games.</p><h3 id=\"6.-the-smartphone\">6. The Smartphone</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: Varies</li><li>Launch Price: Varies</li></ul><p>This one might be hard to consider among the best handheld game console systems because it's not a dedicated gaming device, but hear us out. While smartphones offering games is optional, they've also done a huge amount in bringing gaming to the masses. The truth is that many of the best handheld game console releases wouldn't exist without smartphone contributions to the market.</p><h3 id=\"7.-the-sega-game-gear\">7. The Sega Game Gear</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: October 6, 1990</li><li>Launch Price: $149</li></ul><p>Sega’s Game Gear was one of the first big names to challenge the Game Boy, and it did push the handheld industry forward. At a time when Sega made consoles and gave Nintendo a challenge, the Game Gear offered a range of great games, had a fantastic screen, and was notoriously battery-hungry. A forgotten gem, for sure.</p><h3 id=\"8.-retroid-pocket-3\">8. Retroid Pocket 3</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: September 2022</li><li>Launch Price: $119</li></ul><p>The Retroid Pocket 3 finds a place as what might be the best retro handheld game console for diversity. This system is built on the emulation of older handheld and static consoles, so it is perfect for retro fans.</p><h3 id=\"9.-the-game-boy-advance\">9. The Game Boy Advance</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: June 11, 2001</li><li>Launch Price: $99</li></ul><p>The Game Boy Color updated the classic Game Boy formula, but the GBA raised the bar substantially. Essentially offering the power of a SNES on a handheld game console for the first time, the GBA pushed handheld graphics to new heights. Allowing for hot new releases in Pokémon, Metroid, and Mario, the GBA is remembered fondly in the handheld game console market.</p><h3 id=\"10.-asus-rog-ally\">10. Asus ROG Ally</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: June 13, 2023</li><li>Launch Price: $699</li></ul><p>The Steam Deck might have kickstarted the new handheld gaming PC race, but the ROG Ally lit a fire under its, well, decks. More powerful than the Steam Deck, the Ally is a more expensive option that explores what a premium handheld game console can do.</p><h3 id=\"11.-gpd-win-max-2-2023\">11. GPD Win Max 2 2023</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: May 2023</li><li>Launch Price: $799</li></ul><p>This update stretches the definition of a handheld game console, as it straddles the line between notebook and handheld systems. We included it on this list thanks to its full QWERTY keyboard support. This is a little cramped, but it’s also an important experiment in investigating where this arm of the market might go next.</p><h3 id=\"12.-the-nintendo-switch\">12. The Nintendo Switch</h3><ul><li>Launch Date: March 3, 2017</li><li>Launch Price: $299</li></ul><p>As a dual handheld/console, the Switch consolidated Nintendo's handheld/console library into one amazing whole. With some of the best titles of this generation, it's no surprise many consider the Switch <i>the </i>best handheld game console of all time.</p><h2 id=\"is-there-a-ps-handheld?\">Is There a PS Handheld?</h2><p>There are two main PS handheld game consoles from Sony, the PSP and the later <a href=\"/en/blog/ps-vita-games/\">PS Vita</a>. Sony is also looking to release a new handheld to stream PS5 games too, but we don’t yet know many details about how this new system will shake out.</p><h2 id=\"what-is-the-name-of-the-best-handheld-gaming-console?\">What Is the Name of the Best Handheld Gaming Console?</h2><p>That would be the Nintendo DS. Note that these are separated into different lines, like the original DS and the DS Lite. Each is counted as the same overall platform regarding sales.</p><h2 id=\"how-big-should-a-handheld-console-be?\">How Big Should a Handheld Console Be?</h2><p>There's no one easy answer to this question, for a few reasons. Different people have different-sized hands for one thing, so there's no such thing as a standardized one-size-fits-all approach. Even if a device fits in your hands as the name suggests it should, the rest of the unit can vary in size greatly. While something like the DS and Gameboy could fit in a pocket, the same isn't true of a Steam Deck or Ally. Ultimately, the right size depends on your wants and needs.</p><h2 id=\"whats-the-cheapest-price-for-a-handheld-game-console?\">What's the Cheapest Price for a Handheld Game Console?</h2><p>The cheapest systems will tend to be low-powered emulation handhelds like a My Arcade device or a Retroid Pocket. These don't require cutting-edge tech, so the costs can be well under $100. As long as they offer what you want and don't cut corners in construction quality, these cheap devices can still offer hundreds or thousands of hours of entertainment.</p>","date":"11/18/2021"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Best handheld game consoles","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/handheld-consoles-1.webp"},"authorAvatar":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/portal/common/avatars/default_avatar.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"13551"}}],"listArticles":[{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/pvp-and-pve/"},"strings":{"title":"PvE vs PvP - What’s the Difference?"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"Pve vs PvP","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/pve-vs-pvp-1.webp"}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"13288"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/aaa-games/"},"strings":{"title":"The Top AAA Games of 2023 - Plarium"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"What are AAA games?","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/aaa-games-1.webp"}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"14809"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/ar-games/"},"strings":{"title":"Check Out the Best AR Games of 2023"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"AR Games (Alternate Reality Games)","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/ar-games.webp"}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"13421"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/video-game-villains/"},"strings":{"title":"The Greatest Video Game Villains of All Time"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"The Greatest Video Game Villains of All Time","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/video-game-villains-1.webp"}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"16445"}},{"links":{"link":"/en/blog/konami-code/"},"strings":{"title":"What Exactly Is the Konami Code?"},"images":{"preview":{"alt":"What's the Konami Code?","href":"https://cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/blog/images/2023/konami-code-1.webp"}},"template_options":{"compositeId":"13532"}}]},"components":{}}},{"name":"widget-articles-aside-promoted-game-v3","type":"widget-articles-aside-promoted-game-v3","model":{"links":{"url":"/en/plarium-play/download-user/?plid=885739&pxl=seo&appId=27","urlForGamePage":"/en/game/raid-shadow-legends/","googlePlayUrl":"https://app.appsflyer.com/com.plarium.raidlegends?pid=SEO&c=749089","appStoreUrl":"https://app.appsflyer.com/id1371565796?pid=SEO&c=749088&af_siteid=HomePage"},"strings":{"title":"RAID: Shadow Legends","subtitle":"Collect 700+ Champions & Fight For Glory","label":"Download","analyticsGameName":"raid"},"images":{"promoImg":{"href":"//cdn01.x-plarium.com/browser/content/plarium-play/games/Raid/promo.jpg","sizes":[]}},"template_options":{"authGameTheme":"default","isRedirectDownload":"true"},"repeaters":{},"components":{}}},{"name":"widget-articles-subscribe-v3","type":"widget-articles-subscribe-v3","model":{"links":{},"strings":{"title":"Subscribe to the Blog","errorInvalid":"Invalid email address.
