[Top 10] Good RPGs With Exploration

Updated:

24 Sep 2021

Large and explorative worlds are one of the most important features in the RPG genre. Exploring the spooky swamps in the Witcher 3, the scorched wastelands in Fallout 76, and the flashy urban areas in Cyberpunk 2077 were some of my most memorable experiences - and that’s exactly what I’ll be blabbing about today. Decent RPGs with exploration - let’s get to it!

10. Monster Hunter: World

Also, there’s a monster in every corner waiting to slaughter you or get slaughtered BY you, either on an open field, perhaps in a cave, or some narrow valley - try it out, it’s dope!

9. The Forgotten City

8. The Outer Worlds

Each planet offers different environments and shapes of the terrain, it’s also up to you how you’re gonna conduct your colonization of other planets. Sick game!

7. Divinity: Original Sin 2

6. Cyberpunk 2077

It’s rich. The city itself is filled with modern-looking skyscrapers and its overall glowy, filled with less and more lively NPC’s. Besides the city, you can also roam the desert with your favorite car, engage in long car chases, and do many more cool things. Try out the game, maybe in a month or two!

5. Conan Exiles

Engage in combat, discuss war plans, progress, but most importantly - discover the world and gather resources that are necessary to survive in this harsh world!

4. Middle-earth™: Shadow of Mordor™

3. Elder Scrolls Online

Massive open world, decent graphics, and addicting gameplay is what this game has to offer. Look it up!

2. Fallout 76

But instead of that, you could whack some bandits in an outpost in the middle of the wastelands. The map itself offers a post-apocalyptic setting, both present outside and in the underground. There is also partial vegetation, but scarce!

1. The Witcher 3

But the open world of this game is what made it a game of the year in 2015 - riding through the wheatfields and treacherous swamps was always a remarkable experience, walking through the busy streets of Novigrad and interacting with funny or downright insulting NPC’s was always a treat. With many dungeons and secret locations to explore, you can expect 350-400 hours of gameplay. The best exploration game out there!
