From Software’s games have had an outsized effect on the gaming landscape since the release of Dark Souls, but none have hit as hard as Elden Ring. The impact is so big, in fact, that for many, finishing Elden Ring means it’s time to look for more games like Elden Ring. It combines the essential elements of a Souls game–most notably a combat system with tough enemies and massive bosses that often require careful study and patient play to defeat–with a phenomenally dense, imaginative open world.

It’s that open world that really sets Elden Ring apart from both From Software’s other franchises, and most games in general; it’s full of fascinating things to discover, encouraging players to set out on their own path of exploration and constantly rewarding them for their efforts.

There is more Elden Ring on the way, in the form of Elden Ring Nightreign, a standalone experience set in the Elden Ring world, but deviating pretty significantly from it. Instead of creating a character, you’ll choose from specific heroes to play, and instead of venturing across the world mostly alone, you’ll take on Nightreign cooperatively with up to two other players.

For some, a cooperative Elden Ring experience is right up their alley, but if you’d rather have the more lonesome, exploration-heavy, contemplative experience, Nightreign might not be for you. Luckily, there are a ton of other games that are like Elden Ring–those that conjure a similar feeling of setting out into a dark and hostile world, whether through their combat systems, dark and intriguing storytelling, or world design. Below, you’ll find 24 RPGs, souls-like games, and open-world games that each capture elements of Elden Ring’s gameplay, providing you with more tough battles to fight and incredible worlds to chart. These aren’t necessarily meant to be duplicates of what Elden Ring is going for, but games that might appeal to those who like certain elements of it.

Alternatively, we’ve got suggestions for the best RPGs and the best Elden Ring mods, the latter of which can expand and refresh your experience if you just want more Elden Ring.
