Dying Light 2

 

Dying Light 2 is a zombie apocalypse-themed action RPG video game developed by Techland and published by Warner Bros.

The game is set 22 years after the first part. It starts with a player controlling Aiden Caldwell, an infected human survivor who must traverse the city to find a cure for the zombie virus. Players can move quickly around the city, such as sliding and climbing ledges. 

Players can use various weapons (shotguns, crossbows, and spears) and tools to defend themselves from zombies. Besides, the main character — Aiden — can upgrade weapons with different blueprints, which can be found by breaking down weapons for craft parts. Plus, Aiden can utilize superhuman skills due to the infection.

In the second part, the provider added zombies. They are slow because of sunlight, but these creatures become more aggressive and dangerous at nighttime. Players can stay on the rooftops or in buildings where safe spaces are to avoid them in the dark.

Dying Light 2 is set in Villedor, an open European world. Looking at the map, you can notice seven regions with their landmarks and unique locations. Players can explore it freely. While doing this, they can find inhibitors to improve the main character's stamina or health. Players can make different decisions during the game, influencing further developments: the state of the game's world and how other non-playable characters view Aiden.

Horizon Forbidden West

 

Horizon Forbidden West is an RPG developed by Guerrilla Games and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment in 2022. That is a sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn, which launched in 2017. The new video game is set in the post-apocalyptic world of the Western United States.

There are a lot of NPCs, exciting cultures, side quests, and enemy types.

A player controls the main character — Aloy — a young woman who must find a way to save her people from dangerous machines.

After defeating the evil AI, Gaia, in the first game, Aloy sets out to explore the Forbidden West, a region cut off from the rest of the world for centuries. Along the way, she discovers the truth about her past and the secrets of the ancient civilization that once lived in this land.

The map is more significant than in the previous game. The developer also changed the combat, adding the Valor Surge system and freeform climbing. Focus Scanner, Diving Mask, Shieldwing, and Pullcaster tools appeared in the game.

In the second part, the mission structure for quests has been improved: now it supports various objectives with appealing reward systems much better.

Elden Ring

 

Elden Ring took pride in its place at the top of our list. The game was developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment in 2022.

Elden Ring is an action RPG set in a "world of beauty, violence, and secrets."

During the gameplay, players can freely explore the locations: the Lands Between and its six main areas.

You can use Torrent — a mount in the game to navigate the world. While playing, you can see many NPCs and enemies—for example, demigods are bosses who rule the main areas.

As we said, Elden Ring is an open-world game, but apart from it, there are many places hidden from sight: dungeons, for instance, catacombs, and tunnels, where players can fight demigods and find helpful items.

When the game starts, a player has to choose a character class that determines starting spells and attributes. Using the appropriate weapon or spell, you can fight enemies from near and far distances.

Players can improve weapons with the help of Ashes of War — enchantments in the game.

In Elden Ring, players can create different items. To do this, a player must know how to craft recipes.

Payers can find these recipes in special Cookbooks scattered throughout the world. Material for crafting items can be collected by defeating enemies or trading with NPCs.

Crafted items are an excellent way to increase a player's strength. They vary from poison darts to consumables.
