The 10 Worst Video Games of 2016
Below are the lowest-scoring games released for any platform between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2016. Games are ranked by Metascore prior to rounding, and any titles with fewer than 7 reviews from professional critics are excluded. If a single title would have landed on the list multiple times due to low scores on more than one platform, we only included the lowest-scoring version.
What if Capcom released a Resident Evil game and nobody noticed? Unfortunately, a few reviewers did notice this multiplayer tactical shooter when it appeared in June, and the result is the lowest-scoring game in the history of the 20-year-old franchise. (Yes, it's even worse than Operation Raccoon City and Survivor.)
"Umbrella Corps is a big game from a major publisher in a popular franchise in that franchise’s anniversary year, and it’s both awful and dead on arrival. Now I see why Capcom didn’t tell anyone that it came out." — GameWatcher
