The top 100 PC games
PC Gamer has released its annual Top 100 list, a carefully curated selection of the best PC games currently available to play. The editorial team reviews hundreds of thousands of available PC titles to whittle down the field, a process the publication acknowledges involves both hubris and months of heated debates among staff members advocating for their favorite games.
The Top 100 serves as a snapshot of PC gaming at a particular moment in time, blending canonical classics that have shaped the medium with contemporary releases that represent the current state of the industry. PC Gamer emphasizes that games included in the list are selected not solely for their historical significance or industry-wide recognition, but because a significant portion of the editorial team is actively passionate about them right now.
The publication describes the selection process as deeply subjective, designed to reflect the authentic preferences and advocacy of PC Gamer’s editorial staff rather than applying some objective measure of quality. The final list represents a cross-section of what the team believes are the most compelling gaming experiences available on PC at this moment.
