We continue with the lists, yearbooks and reviews of 2021. This time it is the turn of one of the most curious, that of those titles we have talked about the most throughout the last few months. A fascinating report from Game Industry has made known the most commented games on social networks During 2021, those that have captured the most news in the press and the most searched on Google. A document from which a good number of curiosities are extracted, such as the fact that although Fortnite contents are the most consumed (hence such coverage), they are not the ones that are most talked about. Contrary to Final Fantasy XIV, whose impact on networks is notorious despite how little the title is seen in digital media. Not to mention the most wanted game of the year, Popcat, whose statistics surely you will not be able to avoid increasing by wanting to know what the hell it is.
A good example of the expectations placed on him, Elden Ring is the only one of the most commented on networks that has not yet come out (We will have to wait February 25 for that). It is also curious that, despite having published 40% less news about Cyberpunk 2077 than last year, this is the second game that the press has talked about the most. As for companies, most of them have lowered their numbers, less Activision Blizzard, who has increased them by 120% due to the headlines and coverage of the Bobby Kotick case. The CEO of the North American giant has been accused of mistreatment and harassment of women and more than 1,300 employees of the firm have requested a resignation that does not finish arriving. And as the thing is controversial, the other one that has grown the most has been Konami due to the disaster of eFootball 2022. We leave you with the different lists:
