In our final Best of 2016 award winner before we crown our Game of the Year for 2016, we list down and pick the winner of possibly the most contested genre we have for the year, and that’s the “Best in Action” category.
While some of the games included in the nominees could also be nominated for other genres, we thought it best to stick the game to the genre where its gameplay mechanics are used the most. And don’t forget, same as in our other awards, the winner was picked based on the total number of votes it got among staff, and not based on the review score.

Best of 2016 Game Awards - Action

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End Naughty Dog could beat the series into perpetuity, but they chose to close this chapter of their story at a high point and allow themselves and players to move on. In some ways it feels like I?m playing Uncharted for the first time again, living that sense of incredulity and adventure as we join Nathan Drake and his charming half-tuck for one final adventure rooted in love and sacrifice. It?s a bittersweet feeling, but they?ve gone all in to make sure that A Thief?s End is the Uncharted finale that the fans deserve. A farewell this monumental is spectacularly deserving of a nomination for Game of the Year.
