Final Fantasy 15 had its fair share of issues when it was released, but there was one thing everyone could agree on - the title looked absolutely amazing.
These visuals became even prettier when the game was launched on the PC, with the Windows Edition being able to make the most of the amazing graphics. Any fan of beautiful open-world JRPGs should definitely check Final Fantasy 15 out.
9 The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
It's a testament to the amazing REDengine that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is still one of the best-looking games out right now. Geralt's final chapter is one to remember, thanks in no small part to the game's amazing visuals and brilliant story.
Players can improve the visual fidelity of this game even more with a mod that further upscale the textures of these mods. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is a masterpiece, with its graphics still setting the bar to this day.
8 Cyberpunk 2077
Cyberpunk 2077 never really established itself as a world-beater in the same way as The Witcher 3 did. However, there's no denying the fact that the game still looks absolutely spectacular regardless.
The game's visuals might be extremely poor on last-gen consoles, but PC players will absolutely be wowed by the detail and design. When the game works, there aren't many other titles that look as good as Cyberpunk 2077.
7 Horizon: Zero Dawn
Horizon: Zero Dawn was already a looker when it was released for the PS4. The game's dazzling visuals, stellar combat, and enrapturing story made for a great time indeed.
When the game was launched on the PC, players hated its poor performance and optimization. Thankfully, Horizon: Zero Dawn has got its act together through multiple patches and now runs better than ever before.
6 Assassin's Creed Valhalla
The Assassin's Creed series has developed at a rapid pace ever since the break it took after Syndicate. Origins fittingly showed the Creed in its infancy, with later games taking more of a historical approach as well.
The latest game in the series, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, also looks spectacular. It might have its detractors, but even the biggest haters of the Assassin's Creed series have to love just how amazing Valhalla looks at times.
5 The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim
At a glance, it might be odd to see a game that's almost a decade old make its way on this list. However, the true visual power of Skyrim comes with the integration of mods.
Skyrim's updated releases might also look great, but it's with the power of mods that this game takes on a life of its own. All of a sudden, this great-looking game turns into a visual spectacle for the ages that any graphics nut would fawn over.
4 Red Dead Redemption 2
Rockstar Games have always pushed the envelope with each and every one of their releases. Red Dead Redemption 2 is no exception, with the studio delivering a stellar experience through its narrative and visuals while also integrating a bunch of RPG mechanics into the title as well - something they'd experimented with in Grand Theft Auto 5.
The game's full potential is unlocked on the PC with higher framerates, texture quality, and everything else along the same lines. Red Dead Redemption 2 is a beautiful game that deserves praise for making such a photorealistic world.
3 Ghost Of Tsushima
Ghost of Tsushima wowed players when it was announced, with its amazing combat and visuals being the biggest selling points of the game. It was clear to everyone that Sucker Punch Productions had come back onto the gaming scene in a major way.
The game was an instant hit upon release, with its graphics being absolutely sublime. Given the trend of PlayStation exclusives releasing on PC, gamers can only wait and hope that Ghost of Tsushima is launched on the platform as well so that they can unleash its full potential.
2 God Of War
The God of War reboot was another game that surprised fans to no end when it was announced. Watching an older and more mature Kratos come into his own as a father made for a brilliant narrative that was an absolute blast to unravel.
It helped that the game looked absolutely spectacular, with the one-shot style of the game further adding to its cinematic flair. Any fan of beautiful action-adventure games with lite RPG elements will feel right at home with God of War.
1 Final Fantasy 7 Remake
Most people were skeptical about the idea of their favorite JRPG being remade with modern sensibilities. While Final Fantasy 7 Remake might not have satisfied the entirety of its nostalgic fanbase, the game was still a monumental achievement that should be commended.
Final Fantasy 7 Remake allows players to look at a brand-new version of Midgar that is an absolute treat to explore. It's a shame that its texture quality does dip at times on the PS4, but its console upgrade has none of these issues. Once the PC port of this game is also fixed, there's no denying the fact that Final Fantasy 7 Remake has the potential to become one of the most beautiful games ever made.
