What do you think will be the new "hotness" in gaming?

At the moment you can’t go anywhere without tripping over a Battle Royale type game. PUBG, Fortnite, Apex Legends etc. have been the most popular games for the past while and so naturally everyone wants a piece of the action.

Back it up a few years and every game wanted to be an arena based Hero Shooter (Overwatch, Paladins, Battleborn etc.) before that was the whole Crafting Survival craze, and who could forget the mighty MOBA phase. Everyone wanted to be the next League of Legends or Dota.

What do you think will be the next gaming “hotness” after the Battle Royale craze dies down? Maybe we can get a poll going after you all add some suggestions.

Shared-world ARPGs will probably be big at some point. Not MMO-like, but rather Path of Exile, but with more Diablo-like gameplay. With Diablo Infinite set to oenetrate the casual market, there will be renewed interest in the genre and soon after that we’ll see social takes on it.
