Are We There Yet?

Find out which Kotaku opinions, reviews, and news stories gamers spent the most time reading this year

Who are the heroes and villains that stuck with us this year?

From our time with The Last of Us Part II Remastered in January to December's Sonic 3 review, we've put 53 takes in…

This year saw the release of some great remakes, like Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Silent Hill 2

As the year draws to a close, let's discuss how PlayStation, Xbox, and the Nintendo Switch have fared

The Mario maker squeaked by without announcing the Switch 2 thanks to its powerful back catalog

The Netflix thriller switched up key parts of the show to keep the suspense rolling, for better or worse

A lot of great games arrived from Microsoft-owned studios, but Game Pass got much worse

This year was bad for game devs, physical media, GTA fans, and even people who like The Simpsons

This year sucked, but at least Balatro is awesome and we're getting more Elden Ring soon
