Best Games February 2024 Listed
If you are also curious to know which are the best games that came out last month, this article is definitely the one for you. There were many releases in the month of February, but we have decided to include in this article only the top five games with the highest ratings. Let’s see together what it is.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth (93)
Balatro (92-90)
Solium Infernum (89-84)
Persona 3 Reload (88-87)
Sons of the Forest (86)

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth certainly needs no introduction. This is the second chapter of the trilogy of remakes aimed at giving new life to what is probably the most beloved chapter of the entire Final Fantasy saga. As was to be expected, in line with what happened with Final Fantasy 7 Remake, this second chapter was also able to convince both critics and users. On the other hand, Square Enix has changed little or nothing compared to the previous game, under the banner of “team that wins, no changes.”

Since this is a super well-known game, we won’t go into long explanations of what the game itself is, what it’s about, etc. We’re sure that any gamer, even if they don’t own a PlayStation 5, knows what we’re talking about and, most likely, is not surprised to see Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on this list. With a score of 93/100 (both on Metacritic and Opencritic), Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is practically the best game released last month.

Balatro
Balatro is definitely the surprise of this month of February. Did you ever expect to find a poker-inspired deckbuilder game in this ranking? Probably not. But Baltro is just that. It is a game that is certainly capable of captivating fans and beyond. With a rating of 90/100 on Metacritic and 92/100 on Opecritic, Balatro rightfully enters this ranking.

If you are looking for a different game that can bring a bit of originality to your gaming experience, Balatro is definitely the game for you. Its roguelike structure allows you to face ever-changing runs and the fact that there are special cards with abilities makes the gameplay always varied and never the same. What are you waiting for? You too can enter the madness of Balatro, one of the best games of February 2024.

Solium Infernum
Solium Infernum is another surprise this month. Passed a little under the radar like the game we presented to you previously, Solium Infernum, in reality, has proven to be an excellent game capable of convincing critics. The votes are a little different depending on which site you refer to. Metacritic gives it an 84/100, while Opencritic gives it an 89/100. This difference is certainly not a sign of a lack of quality in the product, but it can only create different opinions on the game’s ranking.

In any case, the concept of Solium Infernum is really interesting. It is essentially a strategy game in which players will be asked to make difficult decisions, including on a political level. It is practically a sort of reimagining of the current political system but instead of governing the normal world, it is destined for the underworld. For this reason, therefore, your enemies and allies will be dark creatures who inhabit Hell.

Persona 3 Reload
Every time Atlus decides to publish a game dedicated to the Persona saga, it is always a great success and the release of Persona 3 Reload (i.e., the remake of the old Persona 3) is certainly no exception. This game, most likely, as in the case of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, also needs no introduction. In addition to the original game, a remaster was released not long ago, before the remake also hit the market.

For this reason, we are more than sure that Persona 3 Reload is a game known to most. The gameplay is the classic one of the Persona series; therefore, it is a turn-based JRPG with anime version videos and the possibility of having different characters in your party team. With a rating of 88/100 on Opencritic and 87/100 on Metacritic, Persona 3 Reload is certainly a valid product that everyone should try, even those who are not passionate about the genre.

Sons of the Forest
Finally, we close the ranking of the best games of February 2024 with Sons of the Forest, a survival game that has finally left its Early Access phase and is available in its full release. The beginning of 2024 was characterized by the release of many survival games that managed to arouse good interest from both critics and the public, such as Palworld, Enshrouded, and Nightingale. Sons of the Forest is absolutely no exception.

Many will already know the game due to the fact that it was in Early Access for a long time, so we won’t dwell much on its presentation. It is also a classic survival game in which players will have to explore to find resources and survive. It goes without saying that all lovers of the genre should give this game a chance, which was awarded by critics with an excellent 86/100.
