World of Warcraft

Dense, handcrafted world

The genre-defining MMORPG: explore the vibrant world of Azeroth alongside thousands of players, level and gear your hero, tackle dungeons and raids with a group, or clash in Alliance-versus-Horde PvP.

Monster Hunter Wilds

Build variety

Wilds sets its hunts across seamless, shifting ecosystems where storms and weather swings change how monsters behave. Fourteen weapon types, a new Focus Mode and deep gear crafting make for more approachable yet still demanding fights, solo or in co-op.

The Lord of the Rings Online

Lore and world history

A classic MMORPG that recreates Middle-earth with great attention to detail, letting you follow a path parallel to the Fellowship through quests, vast regions and group content. Its Tolkien atmosphere and large explorable world are the highlights.

Throne and Liberty

Open world

NCSoft's free-to-play MMORPG built around a flexible weapon-combo class system, animal shapeshifting for gliding, swimming and running, and large-scale guild sieges. Weather and day-night cycles reshape both the open world and its battles.

Sacred

Open world

A Diablo-style hack-and-slash RPG set in the huge, freely explorable world of Ancaria, with seven classes, lots of side quests and loot. Its open map, traversed on horseback, sets it apart from dungeon-only action RPGs.

Monster Hunter Rise

Build variety

Fast, fluid monster hunts with Wirebug mobility, Palico and Palamute companions, and fourteen very different weapon types. Carving up downed beasts feeds an addictive gear-crafting loop that shines in co-op with friends.

Enshrouded

Open world

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.

Aion 2

Lots of grind

Aion 2 is an MMORPG where the sky is part of the battlefield: as a winged Daeva you fight in a faction war across a huge, open world. Real-time combat, character progression and player-versus-player conflict are central.

Black Desert

Dense, handcrafted world

A visually impressive MMORPG with fluid, combo-driven action combat in a huge open world. Beyond fighting, it offers many life skills such as fishing, trading, cooking and alchemy, plus large-scale siege wars.
