The game is also available on mobile devices. Intact PUBG is the only game that has managed to repeat the same level of success on both PC and mobile platforms.
3. Roblox:
Roblox is somewhat similar to Minecraft but way more engaging and creative. A simple “What is Roblox” Google search will reveal how popular this game is. It would be unfair to call Roblox just a game. It is an entire platform in itself. Within Roblox you can create your games and virtual items and sell them in the Roblox marketplace.
4. Overwatch:
Playing Overwatch is a treat for those who like FPS games with fast-paced action and colorful graphics. Each character in Overwatch is well defined with a deep and relatable story. The storyline and character arches make you understand the characters better and you feel more involved with the game. Since it is a AAA title, you will be needing a really powerful PC to enjoy Overwatch at the highest settings.
5. Dota 2:
If you like realtime strategic games then you will love DotA 2. Strategic games can be a bit difficult for first-timers but DotA 2 has some wonderful and comprehensive tutorials that help you master the gameplay fairly easily. You play as a team of 5 players against a team of 5 other players and your objective is to destroy the Ancient of the enemy team. It might sound easy at first but its really a difficult game. You must play as a team and your actions must be coherent. A good thing about DotA 2 is that it is free.
