5 Best Open World Games for the PS4 in 2018

#4. Assassin's Creed: Odyssey

Assassin's Creed: Odyssey

Release Date: 5 October 2018

Publisher: Ubisoft

Price: $60 / ₹4,000

We thought Ubisoft peaked with the prequel, Assassin's Creed: Origins. Assassin's Creed: Odyssey returned with the classic Assassin's Creed style of gameplay, set in Greece. A war is brewing between Athens and Sparta and the player fights for both sides to unite their family.

This is the first Assassin's Creed where players can choose the gender of the protagonist. The game also features different styles of combat which are up to the players to choose. You can also engage with the open world by doing things such as developing a relationship and committing crimes. Naval combat is also featured in this game.

The extremely detailed open world, gameplay mechanics and the large number of things players can do in the game place this at #4 on the list.
