Skyrim

Skyrim set the standard for fantasy RPG games, mixing a fully-realized magical world with the freedom to roam around, discovering secrets, monsters, and a passion for alchemy at your leisure. Platform(s): PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Switch [{ "selector": ".dfsog-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 495px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".domzb-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-344px)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".akikl-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(calc(360px - 32px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

Horizon Forbidden West

If you're a fan of Geralt's combat, you'll adore Aloy's robo dino hunts. Slaying all manner of robotic beasts with various bows and arrows and other clever weapons is hugely empowering.

Divinity: Original Sin 2

Platform(s): PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Switch While being a strictly top-down experience, fans of old-school RPGs who are looking for a bit more depth in systems than The Witcher 3 should rush to Divinity Original Sin 2. [{ "selector": ".nigog-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-353px)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".jxbnk-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(calc(360px - 7px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".tdfxw-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 495px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

Red Ded Redemption 2

Getting tired of The Witcher's medieval world? Mix things with Rockstar's incredible Wild West sandbox. When it comes to nailing the little details, few games can match this open-world outlaw. Platform(s): PC, PS4, Xbox One [{ "selector": ".lxgao-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 495px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".plkbk-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-295px)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".gfugp-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(calc(360px - 7px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

Middle Earth: Shadow of War

While combat in The Witcher 3 is strong, even Geralt in full flight can't match the Orc-slaying fury of Talion. Scraps are so good in Shadow of War, they rival Rocksteady's Batman trilogy. Platform(s): PC, PS4, Xbox One [{ "selector": ".uqplo-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 495px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".dnzqz-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-295px)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".ocsuj-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(calc(360px - 7px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

Assassin's Creed Valhalla

Build a base, dual wield axes, master stealthier combat skills, and turn the political tide of the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms to your advantage in this Viking epic. Platform(s): PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S [{ "selector": ".rqaid-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 495px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".sdtln-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-288px)", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".pdoqa-a", "duration": "1500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(calc(360px - 40px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]
