20 Best Open-World Games You Can Play Right Now

KCD 2

Really helpful video, explained in a clear and practical way 🙌

Odyssey is my all time fave. I've got hundreds of hours on it. I've played it through numerous times. I love this game.

I like Days gone and RDR2 story mode because they are such emotional story's. really hope there will be a days gone 2 someday. i play these games like every 2-3 years again

Nice list. can't go wrong with The Witcher 3 and RDR 2

grown adult just said LOW KEY. That totally threw me off.

sonic frontiers?

Man I wish I had more time to play games. Playing Windrose right now. Good game.

FF Rebirth deserves a mention

List of open world games without Gothic or Risen or Elex games? At least one of them...But Ass Creed there..oh well...

Ass creed 🤮 worst game series ever

Great list.

Farcry 5 sucked. Getting forced into the boss fights in the middle of doing something is horrible, and the endng was worse. Farcry 3 was much better.

Fighting games bore me to tears now. I much prefer games where the fighting can be easily avoided. I'm no longer a fan of the "boom boom ratatatatata brrrrrrrrrt tchac tchac kill kill kill rhaaaaaaaaaaa (drooling)"

Those both CD projekt Red games are masterpiece I will never forget those games and I still install both of them in my PC and playing it

got all these came here to see which is best to play and still cant decide. lol

Nup they took away Aloy's slo mo, bow work. Now she float like sinker with a brick tied to her head.

Using a pc. They force to use wasd in some quests that totally fks it up for a mouse centric player.

Aloy is fine with the mouse steering and aiming UNTIL She tries to ride a horse, in the racing side quest. Or fly a bird in the reset flight paths quest. At least the flight ones are possible. BUT it takes 15 to20 minutes to do a 5 minute course.
Find the height, Rise/lower the bird to it. move the angle. go to a point. Rinse and repeat to the end of the track.
A couple have attacker part way through them so take them out or fail and have to repeat the whole thing again. The plus side, lots of time. And no other racers trying to knock you off. Like the horse racing one.

Why they didn't keep the same steering as Aloy has on her feet is beyond me.. It's not as if using mouse steering is new. Extremely BIG disappointment.

Interesting story.
Some companions are the enemy within type. (Fallout 4 player will know what IO mean.)
Getting in your road and generally being bloody stupid. The worst bit is catching your shots aimed at the enemy instead if staying out of the line of fire. And the reload point sare game decided. So you could end up at the start of the quest. IF your not careful.

Graphics as good as The Witcher 3 bit with fog, lots and lots of fog and mist. Unlike the Witcher where the views can go forever. And that was 2015.

NewGame + is good if you are like me, and play the Tourist, as well as a quest now and then.

A great world for a wanderer's, holiday.. And no airfare to get there.

For the whole story play the first one first. Or you'll have story gaps..

For context I've played both
HZD 5344 hours
HFW 2600 hours

So neither are that bad they are not worth playing. On a PC beware of the limitations in H forbidden West. If your a console user, it's made for you.

Cheers.

Great list!👍🔥 but is missing "Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen"😁 it's huge and amazing👌💥

death stranding is the most boring game ever made

I Appreciate This List! I literally only play open world games 🤷🏾‍♂️💪🏾💯🔥

Assassin's Creed Mirage and Ghost Recon Break Point Assassin's Creed $ Black Flag Resyinced

The fact Mad Max was never mentioned is criminal

He looks like Nathan from uncharted 😂😂😂😂😂😂

if women are always right and men are always wrong, if a man says women are always right is the man wrong or are women always wrong?

I played all of them. Next.

Top Ten my fav list missing here
Sniper Ghost warrior 2- 3
Ghost recon wildlands

I've been playing a lot of STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl and I am shocked at how big that game is. Nightingale is also up there, but it is very repetitive and needs to be played slowly

You for got to mention the music in Las Vegas.

Here are some open world games you should check out:
1. The Sinking City
2. Tchia
3. The Good Life
4. Vampyr
5. Sleeping Dogs
6. Mad Max
7. Greedfall
8. Kena Bridge of Spirits
9. Control
10. Mafia
11. Yakuza 0
12. Hogwarts Legacy
13. Marvel's Spider-man

Played most of the games mentioned I'd also add fallout 3 and 4 and assassin's creed Valhalla and elder scrolls remastered

Loved ghost recon wildlands, days gone, I am now playing humanitz, for £9.50, it is superb ,it's what fallout should have been

Let me throw my hat in the ring: Neo the world ends with you. Do yourself a favor and try it

Planet Crafter: your a convict sent to a desolate world. You must find resources and build machines to terraform the planet to survive.
The Last Caretaker: You a caretaker android activated on a flooded earth with no humans. Your mission is to pilot a ship to locations to find resources to genetically re-create humans and send them into space.

ODYSSEY is the GOAT

Your list ha like one game that looked tempting to explore the world, Horizon Forbidden West. Can't say about the No Man's Sky if you just picked bad planets.

Yes subnautica is a "exploration game" but you kinda don't get the "chills moments" for great exploration there and more "scare moments" because of lack of visibility.

Maybe your intro was just misleading, me thinking you would show exploration games.
