The adaptations that show that there is room for video games in Hollywood
5 – Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is one of the best current video game adaptations
Cyberpunk 2077 It was one of the most controversial video games of 2020 due to its bug-filled state. Still it presented us with a future and an interesting world in the form of Night City and its criminal world.

4 – Castlevania found in the series the success that it has not had in games for years
Although Castlevania It has been out of the spotlight in the world of video games for a long time, that did not stop Netflix from giving life to one of the best adaptations that exist. Its creators took the game of Castlevania 3 and its characters to give us an unforgettable gothic horror and action series, with an animation quality that is a delight for the eyes.

It is also to be applauded that they maintained the quality for four seasons and a spin-off that already has a second on the way. If you haven't seen it, this is the ideal time to do so.
3 – The Last of Us shows that video games also have captivating stories
The series of The Last of Us is a prime example that video games have stories as complex and interesting as the best television dramas. Throughout its first season it had a huge number of viewers following the story of Joel and Ellie. In fact, each episode broke the audience record of the previous one.
Perhaps best of all, it was quite faithful to the video game. Practically everything happens the same, although with some alterations to surprise even fans of the 2013 title. He also took advantage of his time to expand the role of some characters and let us know a little about the beginnings of the cordyceps infection.
They only failed a little in the part of the infected who by mid-season already seemed almost extinct. But they already promised that they will fix that for next season, so maybe we will have to make changes to this top in the future.
2 – Fallout was so good that it even got people to play it
Although it has only just been released, the series fallout already left a big impression on its viewers. Both fans and new followers were fascinated by Prime Video's adaptation.
Although it gives us an original story, it keeps the entire spirit of the games and their setting intact. Plus it's completely canonical with their events.

1 – Arcane is the best video game adaptation so far
We would never have imagined that League of Legends would give us what we consider the best adaptation of video games to a television series, but here we are. In the video game there is no campaign or you do not follow a story as such. All we know about champions are their business cards, which are simple paragraphs. Well, Arcane took this and took tremendous advantage of it.
The story centers on sisters Vi and Jinx who find themselves in the middle of a conflict between the poor neighborhoods of Zaun and the wealthy area of Piltover. This gives rise to one of the most heartbreaking stories and most unexpected twists in recent years.
Don't be fooled because it is animated, the quality of its script and the arcs of its characters are the best that Netflix has given us. Not to mention that it manages to balance all its characters very well to lead them towards a brutal season finale.
There are several episodes that leave you with your mouth open and wanting to know more. It's not for nothing that its second season already has everyone who gave it a chance excited. It even managed to increase people's interest in League of Legendsalthough one look at the chat was enough to make them run. But that doesn't stop lolcito from having the best video game adaptation to date.
