15 Most Challenging Open World Video Games

Metro Exodus

A spiritual successor to the STALKER games, Metro Exodus takes players to the ravenous wastelands of a post-apocalyptic Russia. There’s a huge and varied open-world to traverse, all brought magnificently to life with ultra-detailed visuals. This level of care and polish also extends to the gameplay systems too, as a number of hostile elements such as soldiers and mutants will try to pin you down as you try to make do with whatever little resources you have. Surviving the world of Metro Exodus is a brutal task, but it’s definitely a rewarding one as well.
