Free-to-play games enable players to play a huge portion of the game without any monetary commitment. This is one reason why such games attract a lot of players. But they also lose players at a faster pace if they fail to deliver on the promised features.

These games often have an in-game store, with generally cosmetic-only items. Some items are unlocked after completing certain tasks or reaching particular levels of XP, which will amplify the competition. 2021 saw a huge shift in gaming as many players got into playing video games, with new consoles. Here are the most played games of 2021

Call of Duty: Warzone

Originally created as a spin-off to 2019’s Modern Warfare by Activision and Raven Software, Call of Duty: Warzone, has become one of the best battle royale games. The game merges COD gunplay with free-to-play monetization, making it a great game for players out there.
