It’s that time of year again! We’re looking to crown a Pure Xbox Game of the Year for 2025, and in order to do that, we’re going to need you to vote for the best Xbox games of the past 12 months — only the top ten will make the final cut!

Last year’s winner ended up being Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, closely followed by Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2. Before that, the the 2023 winner was Starfield, the 2022 winner was Elden Ring, the 2021 winner was Halo Infinite, and the 2020 winner was Ori and the Will of the Wisps!

We’ll publish the full top ten here at Pure Xbox around Christmas time, but we’ll need a few days to put the results together — so we’re asking if you can submit your votes by Wednesday, December 17th. If the game you want to vote for isn’t in the poll below, write it in the comments instead and tell us how many points you would have given it.

Remember, your Game of the Year is the one you should give five points to!

There are so many potential winners this year, from a ton of Xbox first-party greats like Avowed and The Outer Worlds 2 to third-party classics such as Hollow Knight: Silksong and Split Fiction. Truth be told, we think it’s going to be hard for anything to beat Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 though…

Bring on the votes, and may the best game win! If you haven’t played enough games to vote for all five this year, that’s not a problem – you just need to choose one game at a minimum in the poll down below.
