Brings what grabs you about Red Dead Redemption: a historical setting, an open world and emotional impact.

A cinematic gangster saga set in postwar America, following Vito Scaletta's rise through the mob with cover shooting, period car chases and rich 1940s–50s atmosphere. Empire Bay is less a playground than a lovingly detailed backdrop for a tight, linear crime story.

Far Cry 3

Shooting and gunplay

An open tropical-island shooter where you liberate outposts by stealth or force, hunt wildlife to craft gear and grow your skills. It is anchored by a disturbing descent into madness and the unforgettable villain Vaas.

Grand Theft Auto V

Lavish presentation

A satirical crime epic set in a huge, bustling Los Santos where you switch between three very different criminals and pull off elaborate heists. Car chases, biting humor and the sprawling GTA Online sandbox make it a playground you can sink endless hours into.

Mafia

Historical setting

A cinematic gangster drama set in 1930s Lost Heaven, following cab driver Tommy Angelo's rise within the Salieri crime family. Authentic period cars, punishing shootouts and one of the finest stories of its era make it a classic.

Mafia: Definitive Edition

Historical setting

A cinematic gangster drama set in Prohibition-era America, following cab driver Tommy as he rises through the Salieri crime family. Its strong story, atmospheric city and mix of gunfights and period car driving define the experience.

Grand Theft Auto IV

Emotional impact

As immigrant Niko Bellic, you chase the American dream through the gritty, living metropolis of Liberty City, only to sink deeper into crime and revenge. It tells a darker, more grounded story than earlier entries while keeping the series' sharp satire.

Mafia III

Historical setting

As Vietnam veteran Lincoln Clay, you wage a revenge war against the mob in 1968's New Bordeaux and divide conquered districts among your lieutenants. Its gripping, unflinching story about racism and its iconic period soundtrack shine, even if the missions get repetitive.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

Strong soundtrack

As CJ you return to Los Santos and fight your way across a huge state full of gang wars, corrupt cops and absurd side activities. Vehicles, shootouts, RPG-like stats and a legendary radio soundtrack make it one of the most expansive sandbox classics.

The Saboteur

Historical setting

As an Irish racer turned saboteur, you fight through Nazi-occupied 1940s France with gunplay, stealth and demolition. Its signature touch is the art style: areas under Nazi control are black and white, and color returns as the resistance grows.
