In terms of brand-new developments on PC, we saw the creation of the auto battler genre, which is a spin-off of MOBAs. Then there's Disco Elysium, regarded as an evolution in the CRPG space-more on that later. There was also a step forward in the Total War franchise with Total War: Three Kingdoms, which evolved elements of diplomacy to pair with strong storytelling steeped in the rich history of Imperial China while maintaining the satisfaction of grand strategy gameplay.
