by Jason Dietz, Metacritic Features Editor – December 17, 2020

Above are the lowest-scoring games released for any platform between January 1, 2020 and December 31, 2020. Games are ranked by Metascore (as of December 15, 2020) 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.

34 #4: Fast & Furious Crossroads (PC)

Originally meant to be released alongside the ninth Fast & Furious movie (which was instead postponed to 2021), this arcade-style racing game from Codemasters' Slightly Mad Studios received unanimously negative reviews thanks to poor controls and a lack of depth and polish.

“I can’t believe the studio behind Project CARS and Need for Speed: Shift developed such an atrocity. I guess this is what happens when you’re assigned a laughably tight budget, have to spend half of it on voice acting by movie stars, and the publisher wants the game to imitate a triple AAA title." —CD-Action
