Here are some beginner-friendly options to players that want to get into and enjoy the best open-world games.
Many people consider open-world games to be overwhelming experiences that can flood the player with so many things to do that they can find it overly challenging to tackle such titles. This is understandable, given that not everyone has the time to invest so many hours into these massive titles with maps that stretch for miles on end.
Thankfully, open-world gaming has become so popular that many developers strive to make these titles as accessible as possible. As a result, even people who are completely unfamiliar with how open-world games work can still enjoy these games quite a bit. The learning curve for such games is not steep at all, making these titles quite beginner-friendly in every way. 7 Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Many people may not consider Animal Crossing: New Horizons to be an open-world game, but the sandbox that players are dropped in loosely adheres to this justification. Unlike most other titles in the genre that prioritize combat, puzzles, and everything else along the same lines, New Horizons is all about relaxing and letting players flex their creative muscles.
Players can transform a run-down and desolate island into a thing of beauty, allowing them to craft everything from better houses to beautiful structures that they can show off to their friends. It’s a social game that players can use to unwind after a long day. 6 A Short Hike
A Short Hike is a simple and (no pun intended) short game that players can finish in a few hours or so. The vibes of this game are immaculate, making for a brief yet lighthearted experience as players embark on the life-altering quest… to get some cellphone reception.
Players will have to gather golden feathers scattered across the world to improve their maneuverability while also scaling the mountain bit by bit.
