15 Best Role-Playing Games of All Time – 2024 Edition

Dragon’s Dogma 2

Open-world fantasy RPGs with hack-and-slash combat are nothing new, and yet, Dragon’s Dogma 2 takes them to an altogether different plane. Ignore the story, which ultimately peters out by the end, and carve your way through the world. Discover secrets like the Sphinx and her riddles or get caught up in the emergent gameplay, which tosses wolves and dragons in equal measure. The Pawn system, an extensive list of Vocations, and stunning vistas pair well with the meaty combat, delivering an organic experience.
