20 Best Open-World Video Games Of All Time

10. Fallout 4

How do you improve on Fallout 3? Well, by making every last single piece of an already massive game world, matter.

Enter an all-new crafting and settlement system, one that lets you combine thousands upon thousands of components by breaking them down and reassembling into weapons, armour and pieces of the world itself. By doing this, Bethesda almost tap into a Minecraft-esque vibe, giving Fallout 4 a free-wheeling approach that rewards you for taking the time to build all manner of impressive structures.

An open-world game where you build large chunks of the world itself? That's Fallout 4.
