(Homeland) - The following games have all left countless impressions on players over the years.
Action-adventure games have always been one of the most beloved genres. Offering vast worlds for players to explore and character development, overcoming gradually increasing challenges in an exciting manner, it's easy to understand why action RPGs continue to maintain their allure to this day. And here are the best-selling games of this genre to date.
Grand Theft Auto V
In terms of success, Grand Theft Auto V is virtually unrivaled. It's even the best-selling action-adventure game of all time, second only to the monumental Tetris. Within just three days of its initial release, developers of Grand Theft Auto V reportedly earned a billion dollars in revenue.
Moreover, just observing Rockstar's continuous exploitation of Grand Theft Auto V over the past nearly 10 years is enough to understand how well the game's appeal has been maintained simply by adding some new features. Grand Theft Auto V owes its success to many factors, which is also why GTA VI is currently the most anticipated game. As of now, the game has sold over 175,000,000 copies.
Red Dead Redemption 2
Red Dead Redemption 2 was initially introduced as a prequel to Red Dead Redemption. However, its overwhelming success took everyone by surprise. Offering a deeper storyline, a vast open world accompanied by challenges, and an incredibly enjoyable journey, Red Dead Redemption 2 is still considered the best open-world game of all time.
Experts, critics, and gamers alike highly praise this game. There have even been numerous calls for the development of Red Dead Redemption 3. According to statistics, Red Dead Redemption 2 has sold over 50 million copies.
The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild can be considered the most successful game in the history of the renowned The Legend of Zelda series. Featuring captivating action RPG gameplay and laying the groundwork for the development of open-world games thereafter, The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild offers boundless freedom for gamers.
With sales exceeding 30 million copies, it must be acknowledged that this modest figure primarily stems from The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild's exclusive release on the Nintendo Switch platform. If it were released on PC or on PlayStation and Xbox consoles, the sales of The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild would likely be significantly higher.
