Conan Exiles

Sandbox with your own goals

A survival sandbox set in the brutal world of Conan the Barbarian: you build bases and whole cities, endure hunger, cold and enemies, and rise from a lowly exile to a mighty warrior. Playable solo, in co-op, or on persistent online servers with siege warfare.

Ark: Survival Ascended

Sandbox with your own goals

You are stranded on islands full of dinosaurs, taming and riding prehistoric beasts, building bases and surviving alone or with tribes of other players. The Unreal Engine 5 remake makes the huge sandbox world look far more impressive.

Ark: Survival Evolved

Sandbox with your own goals

Stranded on an island full of dinosaurs, you gather resources, build bases and tame prehistoric beasts to ride and fight alongside you. On multiplayer servers it becomes a harsh, time-hungry struggle of tribes, raids and alliances.

Enshrouded

Building and crafting

A survival action RPG set in a vast fantasy realm where you push back a corrupting fog, fight bosses, and build elaborate voxel-based bases, solo or with up to 16 friends.

Once Human

Post-apocalyptic setting

An open-world survival game set in a bizarre post-apocalyptic world where you gather resources, build bases and shoot mutated monsters, solo or with friends. It stands out for blending base building, loot-shooter style progression and surreal apocalyptic horror.

New World: Aeternum

Lots of grind

An open-world MMO set on the supernatural island of Aeternum, built around real-time classless weapon combat, gathering and crafting. You can play solo, in small groups, or in large-scale PvP wars for territory.

V Rising

Resources and survival

You play an awakened vampire who hunts for blood, avoids deadly sunlight and builds up your own castle. Fast top-down combat against memorable bosses drives your progression, whether you play solo or with others on online servers.

Palworld

Open world

Palworld mashes creature collecting together with survival crafting and base building. Captured Pals fight beside you, carry you across the islands or toil away in your factory while you explore an open world armed with guns. Its cheeky, slightly macabre humor gives the whole thing a flavor of its own.

Tom Clancy's The Division 2

Post-apocalyptic setting

A cover-based looter shooter set in a meticulously recreated, collapsed Washington D.C., where you team up with friends to clear missions and chase ever-better gear. Its endgame of raids, the Dark Zone and build crafting keeps players hooked.
