24 Best PC Survival Open-World Games

PC gaming is often at its best when you have long and detailed adventures to go on. So if you’re a fan of open-world survival games, check out these titles!

We’re not sure if you saw this in a previous list of ours, but we made a promise that we’re doing our best to uphold it. Simply put, we will always put Minecraft as the first game on a survival titles list because, in our minds, it’s not really a survival game!

You don’t play this title for its survival elements! Instead, you play it to build all sorts of things with your friends or yourself. Yes, there is a survival mode that you can do, but it’s very thin compared to all the other games we have here on this list.

Now let’s take you to another title that’s not quite the survival experience but features a vast open world. Several of them, in fact.

In Astroneer, you’ll be tasked with going to seven different planets in the game and shaping them however you want. That’s right! You can terraform planets and then build upon them however you desire.

Will you build a standard city that you can easily expand? Or will you head deep into the planet’s crust to make the ultimate underground lair? Each planet has different terrain to build on, so do what you feel is best.

It’s a hard life being a vampire lord. You go to sleep for an extended period of time, and when you wake up, everything you know is gone! Your castle, your powers, your followers, everything is gone!

In VRising, it’s your job to survive and get everything back. You’ll start rebuilding your castle and finding humans to drain their blood. The more blood you get, the more your powers grow. As you expand your reach, you can bring people to your side.
