Ah, end of the year lists. You’ve no doubt already had a gander at t🤡he The Gamer News Team's favorite games of 2018, but what were some of the other gaming tren൩ds that had people talking a📖bout in 2018?

According to , based on Twitter users in the United States, Fortnite (unsurprisingly) took top honors as the most-m☂entioned video game title on Twitter in 2🅰018. Call of Duty took second place, while Overwatch came in third.

The full list of most-tweeted aꦺbout gaming titles is as follows:

While Fortnite is an expected title to be number one, it is 🧸interest🦋ing that Call of Duty made the cut (especially second place), whereas Playerunknown’s Battleground did not make the list at all. Has Call of Duty’s “Blackout” mode already taken over as the battle🐲 royale successor to PUBG?

Surprisingly, some of the year’s most popular and anti꧑cipated games diওdn’t even make it into the Top-10. God of War, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Red Dead Redemption 2, and Marvel’s Spider-Man were all major players amongst the video games releasꦇed this year, while also being𒆙 well-received by fans and critics alike. In fact, all three titles were contenders for 2018’s Game of the Year, with God of War takingꦿ top honors.However, it could be argued that God of War and Marvel’s Spider-Man were not tweeted about as much due 🍰to the games being released exclusivel🔴y for the PlayStation 4.

On the other hand, Ninte🎃ndo titles held a firm grip within the Top-10 w🧸ith Pokémon, Super Mario, Super Smash Brothers, and Splatoon. The ꧙first three titles make perfect sense, considering the releases of Pokémon: Let’s Go Pikachu/Eevee and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. While the Inklinks did fill a roster spot in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, it is still surprising to see Splatoon make the list, considering that Splatoon 2 was released over a year ago. Perhap๊s the rumor mill is alive and well with the hopes and desires of Splatoon 3.

Overall, it has been a great year for the gaming industry, with video games making an🍌 impact on society and pop culture, and gamers themselves being recognized for their achievements as professionalꦿ athletes.

2019 is shaping up to be another fun year for gaming, anꦐd you can bet that The Gamer will be along for the ride to k🀅eep you in the know!
