Game Of The Year 2021 (So Far) – GI Show
On this week's episode of The Game Informer Show, we discuss a handful of games we've been digging recently, including Sea of Thieves: A Pirate’s Life, The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles, Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights, Wildermyth, Chicory: A Colorful Tale, and Lego Builder's Journey. Then we spend a good part of the show talking about the best games we've played so far this year and speculate about what could end up being our Game Of The Year for 2021. Will it be Resident Evil: Village, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, Returnal, or could it be a game we haven't even played yet like Metroid Dread or Halo Infinite?
It's a full show, but we make time for another round of fantastic community emails. So please join Dan Tack (@dantack), Marcus Stewart (@MarcusStewart7), Kimberley Wallace (@kstar1785), Alex Stadnik (@Studnik76), and Ben Reeves (@Benjaminreeves) for a new wild and ever-entertaining episode!

For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
