Open-world games have always wowed gamers all over the world because they provide them a lot more flexibility in terms of what they can accomplish. SEGA, the king of this art, was the first to hoist the baton of open-world games when they launched Jet Rocket in 1970. Since then, SEGA and other companies have released a slew of titles in the genre, with fans eagerly anticipating new releases ranging from small ventures to AAA blockbusters every year. This year, more than any other, there are more new releases in the genre, and here are five that will easily fascinate a player in March 2022.
1) Elden Ring
Enthusiasts of the open-world genre, as well as dedicated souls fans, joined hands in fulfilling the tale dictated by Elden Ring when the next souls-borne product from none other than FromSoftware was released last month.
Elden Ring combines the open-world concept with classic souls-like elements in a seamless manner. In exchange, lovers of the genre will receive a delectable meal in March 2022.
2) The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim by Bethesda is one of the most well-known games ever made, and it is a piece of art that will continue to shape the genre for a long time. Skyrim stays faithful to the genre as fans have come to expect it, with an excellent storyline and the largest mod support ever seen.
3) Red Dead Redemption
Red Dead Redemption 2 is more than just a game; it combines the open-world model with linear storytelling to create a hands-on cinematic experience, to say the least. While the game’s plot takes place before its predecessor, it connects the two tales and serves as one of the finest prequels ever developed in gaming history.
4) Grand Theft Auto V
Since its debut in September 2013, GTA V has undergone significant updates. GTA V has even been made available for three of the most recent PlayStation games. In single-player mode, this story-driven game may easily occupy a player for more than 60 hours. In addition, GTA V boasts a sizable online community.
5) Tsushima’s Ghost
Last but not least, Sucker Punch Productions Ghost of Tsushima, a PS exclusive, is one of the most well-tailored open-world games in recent memory. As the game’s DLC, Ghost of Tsushima: Iki Island, approaches, players can expect intense action as they take on the role of a samurai on a quest for revenge.
