What's the best redirect to use for a newer version of a blog post?

For example: suppose you have a post "The Best Games to Play for YouTube Gamers in 2016" and you want to make this a yearly series.

Should you 301 the 2016 version to the new 2017 one? Should you use the canonical attribute? If 2016 isn't in the URL, should you make the 2017 one the new URL?

If you want a permanent redirect - 301, if it's temporary - 302.

Is there any reason why you want to redirect the 2016 version? You could also add a banner at the top of the blog post saying "View our 2017 Version Here"

I like the banner idea. Maybe what I'd do is use a canonical so people could still view the article, but then also put in a banner.
