    The current successor to the legendary Counter-Strike games by Valve, CSGO is one of the most iconic games there is.

The game is notorious for having an extremely high skill floor and no ceiling. This makes it one of the most intimidating and tricky games to learn (even for players familiar with MOBA games). Once you start getting the hang of it, you’re in a world of endless possibilities where anything can work.

The game became so beloved that CDPR had to create this stand-alone game due to popular demand.

    CDPR describes the game as “GWENT sees you clash in fast-paced online PvP duels that combine bluffing, on-the-fly decision making and careful deck construction”, and it can’t be described any better.

    The Epic Games title that took the world by storm when it came out. I’m sure there are hardly any souls who haven’t heard about this wildly popular free game. Fortnite Battle Royale was a companion game to the co-op survival game Fortnite: Save the World.

    The game blends construction elements with 3rd person gunplay in fast-paced dynamics and cartoon-ish graphics. The updates often narrate a subtle story while adding quirky elements and map changes to spice up the experience.

    While the craze which lasted for years has mostly settled down, the game is still very popular with a good amount of concurrent players jumping in the battlefield versus 99 other players to prove themselves as the fittest to survive.
