Hades is the best Steam game of 2020, according to user reviews

Steam reviews tend to hover somewhere between 'useful resource' and 'nightmare meme land', but they do at least give us an idea of which games are enjoying the most positive sentiment on the platform. Now that we're closing in on the end of 2020, it's time to look at the top-reviewed Steam games of the year. Maybe it's no surprise to find the excellent Hades at the top of the list, but there are some hidden gems among those top rankings.


With 99% positive reviews after 105,009 votes, Hades is the best-reviewed Steam game of 2020. The precise ranking is determined by the algorithm of Steam 250, which determines a game's position based on both number of votes and percentage of positive reviews.


You won't find any traditional, triple-A releases in the top ten, either. It's mostly made up of indie games, including Factorio, Phasmophobia, and Risk of Rain 2. Even the big names are a bit non-traditional, like Valve's own VR title, Half-Life: Alyx, and the classic RPG update, Persona 4 Golden.

The PCGamesN Awards 2020

After almost a year of pretending to be fully clothed we thought it was only fitting that we don the top half of a tuxedo, pour a glass of bubbly, and scream at our peers in a productive, friendly video call about which games were worthy of awards in 2020, and indeed, what those awards should be. Unlike our much more democratic, sensible GOTY 2020 list, this quickly devolved into silliness, but we were able to get some sincere thoughts down before then.


While the annual Game of the Year tradition is a great chance to celebrate our favourite games of the year, the church of PC gaming is a diverse and welcoming one, so it's nice to have a space to celebrate some of the bonkers achievements in the industry. As much as we love to talk about the positives, let's face it, it's been a really weird year, and that weirdness has washed up on the shores of PCGamesNland, dumping hashtag-laden pollutants onto our pebbly beaches.


So join us as we raise a glass to 2020 the only way we know how, with some special awards to celebrate particular, genre-based, or plain pointless achievements across the weird and wonderful world of PC gaming.
