Darksiders II

Loot and gear

Playing as Death of the Four Horsemen, you carve through sprawling fantasy realms rendered in Joe Madureira's bold comic-book style. Fluid hack-and-slash combat, loot and skill trees blend with Zelda-like dungeons full of climbing and switch puzzles.

Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin

Boss fights as highlights

A fast action RPG spin-off in the Final Fantasy universe with Soulslike influences: as Jack you fight through a grim reimagining of the original Final Fantasy using a deep job system, parry-based combat and optional co-op. Its melodramatic story is memorable and often enjoyed ironically.

Torchlight II

Playing together in co-op

A colorful, fast-paced Diablo-style hack-and-slash with four classes, deep skill trees, randomized dungeons, and a loyal pet that runs your loot back to town. A satisfying, endlessly replayable loot hunt, especially in co-op.

Darksiders: Warmastered Edition

Interconnected level design

As War, Horseman of the Apocalypse, you carve through a ruined Earth with heavy hack-and-slash combat and Zelda-style dungeons full of puzzles and new gadgets. Its comic-book art and dark Heaven-versus-Hell setting give it a distinct flavor.

Dragon's Crown

Loot and gear

Vanillaware's hand-painted side-scrolling brawler blends fast hack-and-slash combat with RPG progression and loot hunting. Up to four players can team up to run dungeons, pick from six very different classes and fight huge bosses.

Monster Hunter: World

Loot and gear

You track and battle colossal beasts across living ecosystems, learning their patterns and crafting ever-stronger gear from their parts. The demanding, weighty combat really shines when hunting in four-player co-op.
