The PC Gamer Top 100

The best PC games you can play today.

The best PC games you can play today. Once a year, the entire PC Gamer team gathers together to vote on the games we recommend above all others. The ‘today’ part is crucial: these are games from across the history of PC gaming that we believe are still the most fun to play right now. It's a list of old favourites and new ones, games you know well and games you've likely never played. Hopefully you’ll discover some new favourites among them—and get the itch to go back to some you already love.

For a celebration of those vital historical games that pushed PC gaming forward, read our list of the 50 most important PC games of all time.

The Top 100 selection process is democratic and subjective. Each writer simply nominates their personal top 15 games, and we combine the resulting choices to produce a longlist. Two writers, one each from our US and UK teams, then get together on a sweaty and prolonged Skype call to decide on a final list that we’re proud of. That’s what you have here, along with personal picks from the team highlighting games they love that didn’t make the final cut. Enjoy.
