  • Choices with consequences
  • Sci-fi setting
  • Lots of humour

Obsidian's satirical first-person sci-fi RPG drops you into a new colony system rife with corporate absurdity, where dialogue choices, skills and even character flaws meaningfully shape your path. Opinionated companions and dark humor make every decision entertaining.

A Long Journey to an Uncertain End

Strong, story-driven narrative

A space opera where you assemble a colorful crew, manage resources, make story decisions, and flee across the galaxy by ship. Short arcade-style space combat and a personal story about escaping a toxic relationship define the experience.

Mass Effect

Strong, story-driven narrative

As Commander Shepard, you lead your Normandy crew across the galaxy chasing a rogue Spectre in a landmark sci-fi RPG built around its dialogue wheel, companion bonds and choices that carry into the sequels. Combat is real-time cover shooting with pausable squad powers.

Mass Effect 2

Strong, story-driven narrative

Commander Shepard assembles a crew of specialists for a suicide mission, blending cover-based shooting with unforgettable companions and choices that decide who lives and dies.

Fallout 4

Lots to discover

As the lone survivor of Vault 111, you roam the irradiated ruins of Boston, blending gunplay with the slow-motion V.A.T.S. targeting system and building your own settlements. Faction choices and countless darkly funny side quests shape the fate of the Commonwealth.

Mass Effect: Andromeda

Strong character progression

As the Pathfinder, you explore open alien planets on foot with a jetpack and in the Nomad rover, searching for a new home for humanity in an uncharted galaxy. It pairs fast, mobile third-person combat built on freely mixed skill profiles with BioWare's trademark companion relationships.

Fallout: New Vegas

Strong character progression

A post-apocalyptic RPG set in the Mojave, where rival factions vie for control of Vegas and your choices, dialogue and skills decide the fate of the whole region. Sharp writing, dark humor and huge freedom in how quests unfold make it a genre classic.
