Elden Ring Is the Most Addictive Video Game

A new survey has revealed the most addictive video games around.

The Payless Power Study asked 1000 Americans about their gaming habits. “Of the respondents, 88 per cent played video games at least monthly,” said the study, with only those answers used for the report.

Those that said Elden Ring was their favourite game revealed that they spent an average of 20 hours a week playing video games. The second most addictive video game was God Of War, with players logging an average of 17 hours a week while Cyberpunk 2077 and Resident Evil were the third most addictive titles, with fans spending around 16 hours a week playing video games.
