Fire Emblem Engage does away with intricate relationships systems and in-depth downtime between battles, choosing to focus on a well-rounded tactical turn-based combat system that will be hard to beat this year.
The most realistic and engaging instalment of Football Manager yet, even if its improvements are extremely minor in themselves.
Simultaneously better and worse than you'd expect, with some fun co-op and detective elements but weak combat and muddled storytelling.

A breath of fresh air for the Overwatch franchise, with the new game modes, characters, and mechanics all working together superbly well, for a genuinely exciting sequel.
