Game Informer: SF6 Is Best Competitive Multipayer And Best Fighting

Game Informer published its list of the best games of 2023. There are many categories, and in a couple of them, Street Fighter 6 was acknowledged as number one. While it being this year's best fighting game is unsurprising, it was also awarded the title of best competitive multiplayer.

This is what Game Informer wrote about Street Fighter 6: "The fighting game genre was built on competitive play, and Street Fighter 6 carries the tradition forward to significant effect. Whether you’re walking around an in-game arena brimming with potential opponents or just creating a lobby with friends, playing online is a blast. Once you’re in the matches, the action is often buttery smooth, making the best fighting game of the year shine regardless of whether your opponent is across the globe or across the couch."

It is also worth noting that Game Informer named Capcom as the best publisher of 2023 due to the successful remake of Resident Evil 4 and the release of Street Fighter 6.

According to Game Informer, Final Fantasy XVI has the best soundtrack, the best boss and the best hero. Baldur's Gate 3 won in the best RPG, best narrative, and best cooperative multiplayer. The game of the year is The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
