Video games are held to higher visual standards than ever before, especially in this generation where everyone is expecting the next big exclusive. While exceptional fidelity in environments, effects, textures, and even water is expected, the demand for incredible facial animations persists. It was true when Mass Effect: Andromeda was panned for its lackluster and borderline goofy expressions in 2017 and remains so today.
Fortunately, there are more than enough titles that deliver in that regard, both good and bad. Check out our top 15 picks here.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League
There’s much to dislike about Rocksteady’s live-service shooter, whether it’s the story, the looter elements, the uninteresting world design, or the terrible boss fights. However, by some miracle, the facial animations are actually pretty good, especially in the cinematics. It sticks out like a sore thumb compared to everything else about the experience, but props to the team for it, even if it doesn’t make certain moments (you know the one) any more palatable.
