3. Baldur's Gate 3 (2023)
What’s it about: After a Mindflayer forces a deadly tadpole into your brain, you must go on a perilous journey to the city of Baldur’s Gate. Along the way, you’ll forge alliances, break hearts, and kill enemies as you battle to rid yourself of the curse.
Why we like it: Baldur’s Gate 3 took over the world when it was released. Comparable only to Skyrim, this open-world DnD adventure won the hearts of RPG players around the globe.
There’s a reason it retains a steady player base two years later, though. The companions are incredibly well-rounded, the quests are addictive, and there is always something new to find or defeat. Really, though, we have its unbelievable storyline to thank for its success. Ultimately, when considering the best video games of all time, it’s impossible not to include one of the most highly awarded and popular adventures of the last decade.
