For years, game developers have tried out all sorts of creative ideas. Often, the more unusual a game is, the harder it is to find an audience. Let’s focus on action games, as there’s a wide range of examples – both hits and misses – when it comes to strange and unique ways to play. Here are some of the best action games that really pushed the boundaries, resulting in truly over-the-top gameplay.
Roronoa Zoro, nicknamed the Pirate Hunter, is a skilled swordsman and a key member of the Straw Hat Pirates. He was the first to join Luffy on his quest to become the Pirate King, and is dedicated to helping Luffy achieve that dream. However, Zoro also has his own ambition: to become the world’s greatest swordsman. To reach this goal, he needs to become stronger than legendary figures like Mihawk and Nusjuro before the story of *One Piece* concludes.
Completing the first challenge will earn you the Bighorn HK-16 (a melee weapon) and the Carnivore weapon package. The second challenge rewards players with the Urban Sprawl Pax Armata character skin, and the third challenge unlocks the Winner Takes All dog tag. To finish the second and third challenges, you’ll need to collect all the dog tags, and a guide showing their locations in Battlefield 6 is available below.
Okay, so I found this awesome axe, the Ciupaga Axe, pretty early in *Dying Light: The Beast*. It’s located near the Monastery, which is where Kyle starts things off. But heads up – you need to be around level six and have done a bit of the story first, otherwise the axe won’t actually show up where it’s supposed to be.
Originally announced in late 2019, the game *Everwild* faced numerous difficulties during its development, including a complete change in creative direction. Microsoft cancelled the project in July 2025 as part of a larger company reorganization. This same restructuring also led to the cancellation of the *Perfect Dark* reboot, another game from Xbox Game Studios that had experienced lengthy development problems.
Completing these challenges earns you the Standard Issue character (Pax Armata) and the Gridlock NATO character skin. To finish the second challenge, you’ll need to collect all the Dog Tags, and you can find their locations in the guide below.
The Magic: The Gathering and Final Fantasy Chocobo Bundle is a great value for fans of either game, even though you’ll receive two random foil cards out of a possible twenty. Scene Boxes are also available, offering three Play Boosters and six unique cards that are particularly useful for Commander and Eternal players. There are four different Scene Boxes to choose from.
What truly makes these games memorable isn’t just the gameplay, but the lingering feelings they evoke – a growing sense of guilt, the feeling that certain outcomes were unavoidable, and the unsettling realization of your own involvement. These emotions stay with players long after they finish playing, continuing to resonate in their thoughts.
The latest chapter of *One Piece*, chapter 1162, has given fans a lot of new details about the incredibly strong characters from the time of the Rocks Pirates. The story is now focusing on the God Valley Incident, and we’re learning just how fearsome these figures from the past truly were. While the current generation of pirates, like Shanks and Blackbeard, are very powerful, the previous generation was just as impressive.
