it’s like going out on the town with
friends just in an online world filled
with monsters gangsters dinosaurs and
okay it’s nothing like going out with
your friends welcome to watchmojo.com to
down our picks for the top ten
open-world multiplayer games are you a
fan of games like Final Fantasy legend
of zelda or super mario brothers visit
their roots and find out which iconic
franchises made it into the top ten of
our most influential video games of all
time over on our gaming channel mojo
plays for this list we’re looking at
open-world games with great multiplayer
modes and multiplayer games with a great
open-world
but we won’t be including MMORPGs
because there are just too many good
[Music]
number 10 Red Dead online please show
our guests to their tent and give them
some fresh clothes to put on a little
refreshment
considering that the online component to
Red Dead Redemption 2 is working well in
beta and that it had a smoother launch
than GTA online we’re including it in
our list regardless of the fact that
it’s still in its infancy sure the
in-game economy has been the topic of
much contention but we survived the
exact same issues with GTA online and
will survive it with Red Dead as well
in fact pricing changes are already on
their way from Rockstar the ability to
hop into co-op multiplayer with a few
buddies and roam the huge open world
including new missions is well worth the
number 9 destiny – alright alright
alright
let’s see what we’ve got things looked
dicey for a while in early 2018 with the
online community waning but the release
of the forsaken expansion pack finally
made up for all the game’s initial
shortcomings and gave players the
version of destiny to they were
clamoring for all along the beefed up
story decreased restrictions in the
weapon system and improved raiding and
gun chases felt like Bungie finally
listened to their fans in doing so they
saved the game much like they did with
the taken king for the first destiny all
things considered destiny too should now
take out those Guardians number eight
rust who news starting off a videogame
with just a torch and a rock could be
this much fun and this tense yes the
progression system is a bit of a grind
blueprints for useful tools are hard to
find and you need a ton of materials to
build anything of use but with hundreds
of players on the same server rust
thrives and creating pure briefing
mayhem co-op is possible but hey let’s
be real here
why loot and grind when you can just
steal rare and valuable materials from
other players playing this game
honorably would be a full-time job and
number seven Borderlands 2 father isn’t
nearly as many players online is during
its heyday back in 2012 the re-release
of Borderlands 2 in 2015’s Borderlands
the handsome collection for ps4 and Xbox
one extended its online play into the
current generation luckily the game uses
peer-to-peer matchmaking and doesn’t run
on dedicated servers that would require
upkeep so you can still log on and
experience the game story in co-op mode
to this day it’s basically the same as
single-player but the difficulty
increases the more players there are so
if you’re going into battle with three
yes we’ve slam-dunked on this game in
the past and for good reason but with
steady updates over the years and the
release of a major expansion in next
this game can finally be played in true
multiplayer fashion in parties of two to
four players with up to 16 players
allowed in the same star system and you
know what it makes for a solid
experience sure all these updates didn’t
really address how arduous the grind and
resource system can be but we’re just
happy to finally explore the vast solar
system of no man’s sky with a few
friends like we initially wanted to back
number five Ark survival evolved another
survival game makes the list and yes
this one requires just as much grinding
as the others
at least with Ark survival evolved there
are up to another ninety nine players in
the game’s huge open worlds to mix it up
with the pression system also really
does feel meaningful affecting gameplay
in more ways than merely just an
increase in stats it’s best to team up
with some buddies to help gather
resources but like most open world
survival games don’t be too trusting of
random strangers as the name of the game
is survival and it’s far easier to grief
than to grind be sure to hide your base
securely number four don’t starve
together this standalone multiplayer
expansion to the single-player survival
game don’t starve is even more fun than
the original it feels more refined adds
new features and provides you with far
more freedom in terms of how you attempt
to am not starve on top of this it still
looks amazing with its Tim burton-esque
art style and creepy atmosphere the
operatic soundtrack will keep you
immersed in the open world for hours on
end
seriously you might want to set an alarm
when playing this one time is guaranteed
to fly by
[Music]
number three Monster Hunter world while
it can be overly complicated and
frustrating to actually get into an
online game with friends roaming around
the vast open world and slaying
prehistoric baddies with a few pals is
one of the best features of Capcom’s
latest Monster Hunter game oh and
armwrestling other players in the
gathering hub of course instead of being
divided into strictly single-player or
multiplayer campaigns like previous
games world allows a seamless flow
between the two and you can even get
help from other players online while
going out as solo giving it that dark
in hindsight it’s funny to think that in
the early days of GTA online
it wasn’t the critically-acclaimed
multimillion-dollar juggernaut that it
is today
server issues and connectivity issues
almost made the game unplayable and
Rockstar had to apologize profusely
while quickly addressing the problems
these issues were fixed of course and
the game quickly took on a life of its
own outside the single-player campaign
growing into an all-out day in the life
of a gangster simulator the fact that is
still one of the best-selling games of
2018 five years after its launch is a
true indicator of just how good this
here’s another oldie but a goodie that
started out on last generation Tech and
is still going strong with its release
on the switch being perhaps it’s best
port yet the lack of instruction or
Direction can be a turn-off to some but
the freedom and creativity that comes
with it is the main reason this game
still lives on a decade after its
release it’s an enduring favorite of
children and adults alike all these
years later the simplistic old-school
visuals are just a part of the games
charm who would have thought it’s an
extraordinary achievement in not only
open-world games but multiplayer ones as
