Some of these gems are available offline, so you can explore even when the Wi-Fi ghosts you.

Let’s dive into the best open-world games for mobile that let you explore, survive, and conquer—anytime, anywhere.

1. MadOut 2: Big City Online (Online)

If you love GTA-style open-world chaos, this one’s for you. MadOut 2 throws you into a massive city filled with reckless drivers, rival gangs, and absolute mayhem. Up to 100 players can be online in the same session, which means plenty of opportunities for street races, shootouts, or just messing around. The driving mechanics are smooth, the missions are wild, and there’s tons of freedom.

2. Dysmantle (Offline)

Welcome to a post-apocalyptic world where everything is breakable. Unlike most survival games, where only certain objects can be destroyed, Dysmantle lets you dismantle (see what they did there?) almost everything to gather resources. The offline mode is a huge plus, making it perfect for grinding during long trips. Expect zombies, deep crafting mechanics, and a world that feels genuinely alive.

3. Payback 2 (Offline)

Pure arcade madness. Think of this as GTA meets Fast & Furious, but with helicopters, tanks, and over-the-top missions. The single-player mode is solid, featuring everything from street racing to tank battles, while the multiplayer lets you compete in crazy challenges. It’s a chaotic yet super fun pick for fans of action-packed open worlds.

4. Once Human (Online - Coming Soon)

Aliens? Mutations? Post-apocalyptic survival? Once Human brings all of that with some seriously trippy aesthetics. This game mixes supernatural horror with deep survival mechanics, offering an expansive world where you’ll have to battle both otherworldly creatures and other players. The visuals are stunning, and if you love games like Rust or DayZ, this could be your next obsession.

5. Gangstar Vegas (Offline & Online)

A Vegas-themed GTA-style game with open-world madness. Play as a rising MMA fighter caught up in a world of crime, street races, and insane shootouts. With jetpacks, cars, and wild heist missions, this game nails the chaotic open-world formula. And the best part? It has a robust offline mode, making it perfect for on-the-go gaming.

6. The Legend of Neverland (Online)

Love the look and feel of Genshin Impact? Then you need to check out The Legend of Neverland. This action-packed MMORPG has a stunning open world, fluid combat, and deep character customization. Plus, it’s got a unique system where flowers transform into humanoid companions to assist in battle—pretty cool, right?

7. Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath (Offline)

This cult classic brings steampunk wild west vibes with a unique twist—you hunt bounties using creatures as ammunition. Yup, your ammo is alive. The open world is vast, filled with platforming, puzzles, and fast-paced gunplay. It’s offline, so you can enjoy this quirky masterpiece anywhere.

8. Sky: Children of the Light (Online)

More of a chill, story-driven experience, Sky focuses on exploration and co-op adventures rather than combat. Developed by the creators of Journey, this game lets you soar through beautiful landscapes, interact with players through gestures, and experience one of the most wholesome multiplayer worlds ever created.

9. Max Payne (Offline)

A legendary third-person shooter that introduced bullet time (that slow-mo gunfight effect). The dark, noir-style story follows Max, an ex-cop seeking revenge in a world full of betrayal and crime. The mobile version keeps the intense action and story intact, making it one of the best offline open-world games out there.

10. Goat Simulator (Offline)

Why be a hero when you can be an unstoppable, physics-breaking goat? There’s no real story, just pure, dumb fun as you explore the sandbox world, causing absolute chaos. Fly with jetpacks, headbutt people off buildings, or just glitch into infinity—this game is a meme-filled masterpiece.

11. Oceanhorn 2 (Offline)

A Zelda-style open-world RPG with a gorgeous world, intense boss fights, and deep storytelling. If you love puzzles, exploration, and action-packed combat, this game offers a console-like experience on mobile. Perfect for offline adventuring.

12. Minecraft (Online & Offline)

No introduction needed. Infinite creativity, survival mechanics, and a never-ending world to explore. Whether you want to survive alone or build with friends, Minecraft is the open-world sandbox king.

13. Infinity Nikki (Online - Coming Soon)

A dress-up game in an open-world RPG? Sounds crazy, but Infinity Nikki is making it happen. It combines fashion-based gameplay with exploration, puzzle-solving, and adventure. The game is set to be a visually stunning, unique experience—definitely one to watch.

14. One Punch Man World (Online - Coming Soon)

Play as Saitama and obliterate enemies in one hit. This upcoming open-world game lets players explore the OPM universe, fight iconic villains, and complete missions while experiencing the signature One Punch Man humor.

15. Ark: Survival Evolved (Offline & Online)

Dinosaurs, crafting, survival—what else do you need? The mobile version of Ark keeps the core survival mechanics intact, letting you tame prehistoric creatures, build shelters, and fight for survival. It’s hardcore, but if you love survival games, this is it.

16. Tower of Fantasy (Online)

A Genshin Impact-style RPG but with sci-fi elements and fast-paced combat. The open world is stunningly designed, with fluid movement, aerial combat, and a deep multiplayer experience. If you’re looking for a fresh alternative to Genshin, ToF delivers.

17. Bully: Anniversary Edition (Offline)

A Rockstar classic. Instead of gang wars, you’re dealing with high school drama, pranks, and teenage rebellion. The open-world school setting is filled with quirky missions, mini-games, and hilarious moments. Still holds up amazingly well today.

THE open-world RPG that took over mobile gaming. With stunning anime-style graphics, deep combat, and a vast world to explore, Genshin Impact is an ever-expanding adventure with new regions, characters, and stories constantly added.

A dark, futuristic take on the open-world genre with fast action combat and deep world-building. If you love Genshin but want a grittier, more intense experience, keep an eye on this one.

20. GTA: Vice City (Offline)

A true classic. Tommy Vercetti’s journey through Vice City’s neon-soaked streets is still one of the best open-world crime stories ever. Whether you're doing missions or just causing chaos, Vice City remains timeless.
