CD Projekt Red has become an almost legendary studio thanks to titles like Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher franchise. While at launch, Cyberpunk failed to make a good impression among the fans, the new Phantom Liberty DLC expansion has players wooed. Cyberpunk 2077: Liberty City is being hailed as essentially a whole new game with multiple new features and upgrades from the original release.

On the other hand, The Witcher has recently seen extra attention from the community thanks to Netflix putting out a pretty solid live-adaptation series with Henry Cavill playing the role of Geralt of Rivia. Alongside these two relatively newer titles, Skyrim is still one of the most-played games by RPG fans around the world because of its expansive map. Players still unexpectedly stumble upon hidden artifacts every now and then as they look for the last monsters to slay.
