Ranking 2023's best games by Metacritic User Score
While most people pay attention to how the critics score video games, there is always the opportunity for you to have your say with Metacritic’s User Score system. Here people can give a game their own score out of ten and write up their thoughts on the game. There are plenty of people on there who genuinely review the games they play, but there are also a lot of strange and reactionary people on there who have given the system a bit of a reputation for weird choices.
However, that just makes it all the more interesting to see what Metacritic users thought the best games of 2023 were. We’ve scoured the platform and picked out the games released in 2023 with the highest Metacritic User Score. We’ll also highlight what the critics thought of each game, so you can compare the difference between the two.
