Highlighting the most relevant stories, this list is not inherently and totally objective, and will not contain every news story this week. Rather, this is intended for gaming fans who want a quick rundown on the largest\/most impactful stories that occurred in the last week in games.<\/p>\n<p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/gaming\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this\u00a0week&#8217;s gaming news roundup<\/a>, the Game Awards and\u00a0<em>Cyberpunk 2077<\/em> led the pack in gaming news. Gaming&#8217;s biggest show of spectacle hosted plenty of exciting new game reveals, as well as an impressive showing from\u00a0<em>The Last of Us 2<\/em> in the award categories.\u00a0<em>Cyberpunk 2077<\/em>, perhaps this year&#8217;s most anticipated and long-awaited game, has finally released. Reception has been generally favorable, but mileage seems to vary significantly depending on the platform gamers are playing it on. Additionally, the NPD Group unveiled interesting consumer trends from the console launch last month. Here&#8217;s a recap of the biggest gaming industry news this week.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\"><strong>RELATED:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/silent-hill-reveal-game-awards-2020\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Silent Hill PS5 Reboot Wasn&#8217;t at The Game Awards, But Fans Shouldn&#8217;t Worry Just Yet<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static1.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/The-Last-Of-Us-2-Game-Awards.jpg\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>As the last big show of spectacle from the gaming industry this year, the Game Awards came out in full force on Thursday. 2020 was quite the competitive year for the awards show, with heavy hitters like\u00a0<em>Final Fantasy 7 Remake<\/em>,\u00a0<em>Ghost of Tsushima<\/em>,\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Hades<\/em>, all competing with\u00a0<em>The Last of Us 2<\/em>.

Lyn Inaizumi and the\u00a0<em>Persona<\/em> live band performed a rendition of\u00a0&#8220;Last Surprise&#8221; from\u00a0<em>Persona 5 Strikers<\/em>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/the-game-awards-eddie-vedder-pearl-jam\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Eddie Vedder performed &#8220;Future Days,&#8221;<\/a> the song used as a narrative element in\u00a0<em>The Last of Us 2<\/em>.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.gamerantimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/perfect-dark-the-initiative-game-awards-2020.jpg\"\/><\/figure>\n<p>As for game reveals themselves, there were quite a few surprise announcements at the Game Awards show this year.

Nearly a decade in the making, fan hype for this game has been immense, and it&#8217;s finally here. Critical reception of the game has been largely positive, with the game&#8217;s PC Metacritic score still hovering at a 90 as of this writing. Although, it hasn&#8217;t exactly been flawless user scores, especially for those playing on last-gen consoles.<\/p>\n<p>One recurring problem point across all versions of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/cyberpunk-2077-bonus-structure-change-bugs\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Cyberpunk 2077<\/em> have been the various bugs and glitches<\/a> in the game. For one thing, the last-gen consoles versions have had some serious issues with texture streaming and loading, resulting in some strange low-poly graphical issues. Outside of that, every version of the game has had some variety of glitches, ranging from minor clipping and texture irregularities to game-breaking NPC behavior and unfinishable quests.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MatPiscatella\/status\/1337396190862737414?s=20\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Lastly, the NPD Group revealed its consumer market reserach analytics for November, showcasing some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegamer.com\/npd-report-consumers-played-video-games-increase-2020\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">interesting consumer trends across the industry<\/a> last month. Given that November marked the launch of the next-gen consoles, understandably console sales were high. The PS5 had a record-breaking debut as the best-selling hardware platform in terms of spending in November, but interestingly Nintendo Switch still sold the most hardware units of all console makers. Additionally, Nintendo Switch has been the best-selling hardware platform for 24 months straight.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of the games themselves, November&#8217;s best-selling game was\u00a0<em>Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War<\/em>, which in turn also became the best-selling game in 2020 altogether.\u00a0<em>Assassin&#8217;s Creed Valhalla<\/em> and\u00a0<em>Spider-Man: Miles Morales<\/em> were not far behind for sales, in second and third respectively. After that were many of the usual suspects like\u00a0<em>Watch Dogs: Legion<\/em> and\u00a0<em>Animal Crossing: New Horizons<\/em>, one of the best-selling games this year.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/game-awards-2020-no-hideo-kojima\/\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Game Awards 2020 Broke A 6-Year Tradition<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\"><figure class= \\\"wp-block-image alignnone \\\"><img src= \\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\" alt=\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\\\"\/><figcaption>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/br>Find A Teacher Form:\r\n<\/br>https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1vREBnX5n262umf4wU5U2pyTwvk9O-JrAgblA-wH9GFQ\/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses\r\n<\/br><\/br>Email:\r\n<\/br>public1989two@gmail.com<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>\r\n<a href=www.itsec.hk style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.hk<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itsec.vip\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.vip<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itseceu.uk\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itseceu.uk<\/a><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>In this week&#8217;s gaming news, 2020&#8217;s Game Awards and Cyberpunk 2077&#8217;s long-awaited launch have been the gaming industry&#8217;s primary conversation.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":132,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Biggest Gaming News of the Week: 12\/6\/20 - 12\/12\/20 | Game Rant - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"In this week's gaming news, 2020's Game Awards and Cyberpunk 2077's long-awaited launch have been the gaming industry's primary conversation."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[607],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143849"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/132"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=143849"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143849\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":143883,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143849\/revisions\/143883"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=143849"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=143849"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=143849"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
