Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus
Wolfenstein 2
WhileWolfenstein 2: The New Colossusdoesn’t feature RPG mechanics, it’s the historical setting and story that will pull you in, even if the game eschews realism for arcade shooting gameplay. The game follows William ‘B.J’ Blazkowicz and his battle with the Nazi regime. The gunplay is top-tier, the action set pieces are mindblowing and the story balances the seriousness of the Nazi regime with outlandish moments that threaten to make you laugh the further you get into the plot.

This sequel toHorizon Zero Dawnis an action-RPG developed as an exclusive for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. The game follows Aloy, a young woman exploring the post-apocalyptic Western United States. For a character-driven action game, this one stands shoulder to shoulder withRed Dead Redemptionin how much you’ll invest into the central cast.Horizon Forbidden Westis a lot more action-packed however, as you battle it out with massive machine creatures using a wealth of weaponry.
Assassin’s Creed Black Flag
Black Flag
For another period piece in gaming, you can’t ignore any of the Assassin’s Creed games, but if we had to choose one (and we do) it would beBlack Flag. TheAssassin’s Creedfranchise has visited many different locales and time periods, butBlack Flagcombines these with a historic ‘way of life’. Much like being a cowboy is a way of life, so is being a pirate. There’s a great deal of depth in every area ofBlack Flag; from ship battles to the story of the Assassin brotherhood, plus there’s a lot brooding to be done.
