Gothic II

Lots to discover

A handcrafted, densely populated fantasy island where the Nameless Hero rises from weakling to champion, joins a faction, and has to earn every bit of progress the hard way. The cult classic thrives on its believable world, gruff dialogue and a superb sense of discovery.

Hogwarts Legacy

Lore and world history

As a fifth-year student in 19th-century Hogwarts, you roam a lavishly recreated castle and the Scottish Highlands, chaining spells in flashy real-time duels while unraveling a mystery of ancient magic. The real draw is the feeling of finally living inside the wizarding school yourself.

Divine Divinity

Lots to discover

An early Larian action RPG with a huge, freely explorable world, countless side quests and a classless character system that lets you blend warrior, mage and thief skills as you like.

Dragon's Dogma

Build variety

An open-world fantasy action RPG where you fight alongside AI companions called Pawns. Its standout feature is climbing onto huge monsters like griffins and dragons mid-fight, backed by a flexible class system with plenty of build freedom.

Risen

Lots to discover

A classic Piranha Bytes RPG in the spirit of Gothic: as a nameless castaway you explore a dense, handcrafted volcanic island, join a faction and claw your way from weakling to hero. Tough combat and a believable, lived-in world are its core strengths.

Gothic

Lots to discover

As a nameless prisoner dumped into a mining colony sealed by a magic barrier, you claw your way up from nobody with no quest markers, joining one of three camps and learning skills only from trainers. Its harsh, believable world full of gruff characters and its unforgiving, clunky combat made it a cult classic.

Guild Wars 2

Lore and world history

A subscription-free MMORPG built around dynamic world events, mobile dodge-based combat and a gorgeously painted fantasy world full of vistas and jumping puzzles. Strangers naturally team up without formal grouping, and there are raids, fractals and massive WvW battles for those seeking more.

Two Worlds

Loot and gear

A sprawling open-world fantasy RPG where you search for your kidnapped sister across a huge, freely explorable land, juggling rival factions and upgrading gear by stacking duplicates. Rough around the edges and infamous for its stilted dialogue, but generous with freedom.
