The best single player games to try right now

What are the best single player games? There’s nothing quite like a solo adventure that lets you explore, interact, and fight to your heart’s content, with no one there to interrupt the immersion. Let's face it, you really don’t need to get a squad together to have tons of fun, and these games prove it.

Some of the best PC games of all time are single player experiences with carefully crafted stories, and you’ll find the cream of the crop in this list, including some of the best story games and the best RPG games. We've even thrown in a couple of curveballs, too, for those players who prize slick mechanics over a grand narrative. Whatever you're looking for in a single-player experience, your next solo adventure is just a hop, skip, and a scroll away.
