30 Best Open World Games You Need To Play [2021 Edition]

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla continues on in the action RPG tradition of Origins and Odyssey, but set in the 9^th century as the Vikings venture to England to settle. As Eivor, the player embarks on a long quest of vengeance but is mixed up in Norse mythology, the Hidden Ones, and the forces of the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms. The loot-grinding of Odyssey has been reined in and there’s a greater focus on World Events as players explore the lands, meeting allies and building up their kingdom. In terms of exploration, story-telling and combat, it works fairly well while refining and updating the formula further. Plus, whether you’re in Norway or venturing across England, the game looks gorgeous at all times.
