Buying a video game for a child or family member can be a daunting task. Hundreds of games are released every year, and it can be hard to determine which games are the best if you’re not a baked sweet yourself. But, don’t worry! We’ve got your back. Here is list of all the games released this year that the Pixelkin staff thinks would make great gifts.

We’ve broken down our guide by ESRB rating, but we’ve also included some mobile and indie PC games that don’t have ESRB ratings. We’ve placed these under the rating we feel is most appropriate for the game. You’ll also notice that we have included our favorite Mature-rated games. We know every child and family is different. We think parents should be the ones to decide when their kids are ready to play particular Mature-rated games, so we decided to cover some of the M-rated games that tend to be popular with teens.

If you see a game you wish to purchase, you can click on one of our red “buy” buttons to find the game on Amazon. Every Amazon purchase you make through this Gift Guide helps support Pixelkin.org without costing you anything extra.
