Best Multiplayer Games to Play

Many multiplayer games have a short lifespan, which can discourage new players from inviting friends to play. Multiplayer games should offer not only a great, fun shared experience with friends but also a unique gaming experience. The best multiplayer games usually keep players coming back for more. 

The following list provides the best multiplayer games that meet those standards.

Minecraft (2011)

Minecraft may seem like an obvious choice, but that’s for a reason. For over ten years, Minecraft has stood the test of time as one of the best multiplayer games out there. It has something for everyone, from the builders and the PvPers to the roleplayers and the challenge takers. The game is crossplatform, so anyone can play together regardless of the platform.

Roblox (2006)

Roblox generally attracts younger players, but it can be for all ages. Mini-games like Murder Mystery 2, Bloxburg, Arsenal, and Tower of Hell show that Roblox has something for everyone. Whether it’s roleplaying, PvPing, or even simulations, there’s a Roblox game for everyone and people to connect with. One can join a friends’ game, invite friends, and buy items, emotes, and even faces to customize their character. There is always something happening in Roblox keeping the content fresh and exciting.

League of Legends (2009)

League of Legends is “a team-based strategy game where two teams of five . . . face off to destroy the other’s base.” It is a game where teamwork is crucial, and one mistake can cost a match, making it a high-stakes multiplayer game. Strategy and communication are what make League of Legends worth playing.

Super Smash Bros. (1999-Present)

While Super Smash Bros. may have lost popularity recently, but not because of its multiplayer mode. Super Smash Bros has hundreds of tracks, items, fighters, and stages to choose from and combine. The fighters are diverse, and each plays differently with their given abilities and stats, which makes each round interesting. No matter how one plays, Super Smash Bros is the perfect PvP game to play with friends, especially on the go with the Nintendo Switch.

To Conclude
