  • Open world
  • Lots of humour

Dead Rising 3

Lots of humour

A chaotic zombie sandbox set in Los Perdidos where you combine everyday objects into absurd weapons and vehicles and mow down huge hordes. Dark humor and a ticking clock define the experience.

Sunset Overdrive

Lots of humour

A loud, colorful open-world action shooter where you grind across rooftops, wall-run and blast mutants with absurd weapons. The fluid traversal and irreverent humor set it apart.

Dead Rising 4

Lots of humour

As photojournalist Frank West you smash through zombie hordes in a Christmas-themed Willamette, improvising absurd weapons from everyday objects and exo-suits. The tone is goofy and over the top, with the fun coming from chaotic sandbox carnage.

Dead Rising 2

Lots of humour

As Chuck Greene you hack through a zombie-infested casino city under a strict timer, duct-taping everyday items into ridiculous combo weapons. The ticking clock, rescuable survivors and psychopath bosses create a unique blend of pressure and gleeful dark comedy.

Watch Dogs 2

Lavish presentation

As hacker Marcus and his irreverent DedSec crew, you roam a sunny San Francisco Bay Area, tackling missions with drones, remote hacks, or guns. Its playful tone and satirical jabs at Silicon Valley set it apart from its gloomy predecessor.

Dead Island 2

Lavish presentation

Gory first-person melee mayhem across a sun-soaked, zombie-infested Los Angeles, built around a remarkably detailed dismemberment system and crafted weapon mods. Its tone leans toward tongue-in-cheek B-movie satire rather than true horror.

Just Cause 2

Open world

A massive tropical island nation serves as a sandbox for over-the-top destruction: with grappling hook, parachute and countless vehicles, Rico Rodriguez blows his way through a dictatorship. The story is secondary to the gleeful chaos.

Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel

Strong character progression

A loot shooter set on Pandora's moon, where low gravity, oxygen management and ground-pound attacks put a fresh spin on the combat. It tells the story of Handsome Jack's rise to villainy with the series' trademark irreverent humor, and it's best played in co-op.

Borderlands 4

Strong character progression

A colorful looter-shooter sending Vault Hunters to the new planet Kairos, packed with endless procedurally generated guns, deep skill trees and a now seamless open world with expanded movement. It shines brightest as chaotic co-op mayhem with friends.
