The Witcher 3, Red Dead Redemption 2, and 3 other unmissable action-adventure titles at Steam Winter Sale 2022
1) The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt ($7.99)
CD Projekt Red's The Witcher 3 does not need any introduction. The title serves as a benchmark in narrative-driven open-world game design. It still holds up against most modern open-world role-playing games.
While most open-world titles tend to use repetitive, cookie-cutter side content to fill the vastness of their open world, The Witcher 3's side quests are built with the same love and care as the main questline. They are easily the highlight of The Witcher 3 experience, featuring storylines that rival the main story quests in most modern AAA games.
The densely-packed open world filled with memorable side quests and backed by a phenomenal main narrative is bound to get players invested.
The Witcher 3 is easily one of the best action-adventure games out there. It is something that players should not miss out on, especially with an 80% discount during the Steam Winter Sale.

3) God of War ($29.99)
Santa Monica Studio's God of War (2018) is a game that players on PC never thought would make its debut on PC. However, with PlayStation pushing towards making more of its first-party exclusives available to PC players, God of War (2018) eventually made its way to the platform early this year.
The title's more personal story, stunning visual design, and phenomenal action-focused gameplay make it one of the best PlayStation games to date. This holds true even with its PC port.
God of War (2018) is the epitome of narrative-driven action-adventure games. It features the action-heavy combat fans have come to love and expect from a God of War title.

Red Dead Redemption 2, the studio's most recent title, is no different. In fact, it is one of the best narrative-driven action-adventure games of the last decade.
