Round 27 — Alan Wake 2 vs Hogwarts Legacy
We have quite the mix here: magical open-world game Hogwarts Legacy vs survival horror Alan Wake 2. Both major releases for the year and a huge deal at launch. Hogwarts Legacy has defeated Jusant and Street Fighter 6 to be here, while Alan Wake 2 knocked out Lies of P and Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty. Alan Wake 2 delivered pure excellence with its story, gameplay, and atmospheric world, while Hogwarts Legacy has that major brand name behind it. Which will take the win here?
At the start of this tournament, we had AAA games in the top bracket and indie and other smaller titles into a second bracket, to make sure everything had a fair chance. It’s a great way to get a good discussion kicking off in the comments about this year’s best Xbox games. We also have the TrueAchievements Game of the Year Awards 2023 running too, so be sure to check that out!
