2022 had the potential to be the biggest year for new video games since 2017 \u2014 a standout year that brought us Breath of the Wild<\/u><\/a>, Super Mario Odyssey, Horizon Zero Dawn, Persona 5, Resident Evil 7, Nier: Automata, Assassin\u2019s Creed Origins, and so much more. Unfortunately, a number of big delays<\/a> (Breath of the Wild 2 and Starfield among them) has taken some of the wind out of this year’s sails. Yet even with those setbacks, there have still been 55 games released in 2022 that IGN awarded a review score of 8 or higher.<\/p>\n

To keep track of the year\u2019s best new releases we\u2019ve compiled this running list of every new, standalone game (no DLC) that received an 8 (“Great\u201d), 9 (\u201cAmazing\u201d), or 10 (\u201cMasterpiece”) from IGN. Click through the gallery below or continue scrolling for our full list of 2022’s best games, ordered from lowest score to highest.<\/p>\n

This list will be updated throughout the year as new games are given qualifying review scores.<\/em><\/p>\n
