2. Hurtworld

Hurtworld gameplay

Another entry in the open-world survival category, this one featuring a cool cell-shaded visual style, unforgiving player-versus-environment challenges, deep base building mechanics and customization, responsive and twitch-based PVP combat, and a vast open world featuring a large variety of different environments.

Hurtworld is still in early access and many of the systems featured in the game are placeholder and constantly in a state of change and improvement. It’s been out for a few years now and the sheer amount of changes and improvements is quite impressive. Couple that with the extremely smooth gameplay experience that could run on virtually any rig while still keeping the crisp and nice-looking graphics, and you’ve got a budget title that’s hard to beat, this one is definitely worth keeping your eyes on.

Despite the massive map size, you might find that it gets a bit crowed with buildings and player structures dotting the landscape, not to fear though, you're given plenty of destructive tools to tear them down.

Early on it might be better off to steer clear of other players, no sense fighting when there's so little to gain and you're better of farming for materials...he does look juicy though, perhaps just and arm and a leg?
