Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV is a 2016 Japanese animated film set during the events of the Final Fantasy XV video game. Kingsglaive was part of a planned multimedia project built around Final Fantasy XV and received a limited theatrical release. Production began in 2014, using discarded concepts from the game's storyline with the aim of being a self-contained story that could reach a wider audience than the video game. Approximately 50 different companies from around the world were involved in the film's production which used motion capture for the characters' body and facial movements.

This is my annual list for my personal favorite and disappointing games of the year. To clarify, these are not the "best and worst" games of the year. They are titles I enjoyed or was letdown by based on my own preferences and expectations. Most of the titles on my disappointing list are not even what I would consider bad games, they just weren't for me, or were not what I was expecting. All the games on this list I have either played to completion or abandoned. I have ordered the list based on my overall enjoyment (one being the best) of games I played in 2023. Most of the games listed here will not be brand new 2023 releases. They are games I played in 2023 that were new to me. Anything that could be considered a spoiler has been blocked out. Highlight to reveal.
