Old World<\/h3>\n<p>Old World was released on 19 May last week and offers an interesting take on the grand strategy genre.<\/p>\n<p>The player will assume control of a dynasty and guide it through multiple generations as you manage your court, expand your borders and engage in hexagonal tile based combat.<\/p>\n<p>Old World holds a Very Positive user review score on Steam.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4ONKy-CK0zg\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">9.

Fifa 22<\/h3>\n<p>Fifa is one of the most popular sports game franchises in history so seeing it on this list is not surprising.<\/p>\n<p>The football game is currently on sale until 31 May and this is likely the reason for it holding the eighth spot in the top ten.<\/p>\n<p>Fifa 22 has a Mostly Positive user review score on Steam.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/SYsi5QuOJNE\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">7. The Forest<\/h3>\n<p>The Forest maintains its presence in the top ten from last week but has dropped from fourth to seventh.<\/p>\n<p>However, for a game released in 2018 it is impressive for it to be in the top ten for two weeks in a row.<\/p>\n<p>Whether or not it will be in the top ten of the coming week, however, remains to be seen.<\/p>\n<p>The Forest has an Overwhelmingly Positive user review score on Steam.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/G6l09tvwt1A\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">6.

Elden Ring<\/h3>\n<p>Elden Ring has now been out for around three months and it has consistently appeared in the top five games on this list.<\/p>\n<p>However, its drop to the fourth spot could potentially herald an end to its dominance.<\/p>\n<p>However, as the games that displaced it are new releases, it would not be surprising to see it return to it second spot position next week as the hype around the new titles dies down.<\/p>\n<p>Elden Ring has a Very Positive user review score on Steam.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/K_03kFqWfqs\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">3.
