There’s some disagreement over exactly how big the high fantasy MMORPG world of Asheron’s Call is but either way it’s big enough to get a spot on our list. The game was created by Turbine Entertainment Software back in 1999 and is set in Dereth, an enormous island continent. There are also archipelagos around the primary landmass if for some insane reason you feel like the central area just isn’t big enough for you.

Though the servers for the fan favourite MMO were sadly shut off in late 2016, in its heyday they hosted thousands of players at once.

The seamless multiplayer virtual world was an anomaly for its sheer size, but its success in offering intriguing RPG and narrative elements kept players coming back as long as they were able.
