Pokémon Sun and Moon has emerged victorious as platform exclusive Game of the Year in Stevivor’s staff deliberations.
Game Freak’s latest, a combination of innovation and nostalgia, edged out both Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End on PS4 and Forza Horizon 3 on Xbox One.
“This will go down as a huge success with returning players and it’s easier than ever for newcomers to enjoy after the success of Pokémon Go,” Shane said in his review. “Fans are in for a treat, and if you’re new don’t hesitate. There has never been a better time to play Pokémon.”
