Numerous highly-rated video games released in 2020, but one game stands tall above the rest as being the highest-rated game of the year, and that’s none other thanHadesfrom Supergiant Games. The roguelike action-RPG earned rave reviews from critics, withHadesenjoying an impressive 94 average critic score, putting it ahead of other big 2020 games likeThe Last of Us 2,Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and many more.
Hadeshas been a huge success so far, but its audience has been restricted to those on PC and those on Nintendo Switch. Supergiant Games has not announced any new platforms forHadesas of yet, but one has to imagine that the game will eventually make its way to PlayStation and Xbox consoles. According to a new rumor,Hadesis indeed in development for Xbox, and not only that, but it may even be launching throughXbox Game Pass.
