Twenty twenty-one probably isn’t going to make the history books as one of humanity’s finest years. From a pandemic that continued to come in waves to Betty White dying on December 31st, it was a rather garbage year. Except for the games. If there was any shining beacon to be found in 2021, it was the games we all enjoyed. And enjoy we did. I mean, in a year with a new Resident Evil, Psychonauts, and Metroid, we gave our game of the year crown to a dog that paints. That’s just how good the games were last year and I hope we’ll be able to say the same about this year come next January. We’ve already posted the list of our most anticipated games of 2022, but in order to truly say goodbye to the past 12 months, we need to take one last look at Destructoid’s most anticipated games of 2021 to see how they turned out.

How did Fantasian, the Apple Arcade exclusive from Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi, turn out? Well, let’s see here. I gave both halves of the game an 8/10, it was nominated for Best Mobile Game at the Game Awards, and it won Apple Arcade Game of the Year at the App Store Awards. Oh, it was also named Best Mobile Game right here at Destructoid.

So yeah, it turned out pretty damn great. If you’re still sitting on a free trial of Apple Arcade, you should think about giving it a go. Especially if you love tough-as-nails throwback RPGs with immaculate art direction, an outstanding score, and some innovative ideas for the genre.

I’m still thinking about No More Heroes 3.

That’s partly because I see new fan art of the game nearly every day. It came out about five months ago now, but it’s still sparking new ideas in the minds of players. It’s not all good, though. The game left us with so many questions
