Video games are like books where they can transport you into another reality. They’re entertaining and sometimes have well-written stories. Some games have such complex and in-depth worlds, it’s almost like traveling and can inspire future travel plans.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Tag along on Geralt of Rivia’s final adventure in The Witcher series. He travels all over the place, from a swamp, to a city, to a nation of islands. Each area has its own barrage of characters that reflect the surroundings. The game inspires travelers to get off the beaten path and immerse themselves in the culture.

Elder Scrolls: Skyrim
Considered one of the greatest games of all time, Skyrim encompasses a massive fictional world open for players to explore. There are caves, ruins, cities and rural areas to explore. The developers said the landscape is based on Scandinavia so fans of this game should make that their next place to visit.

Tomb Raider
A longtime favorite, Tomb Raider follows Lara Croft through many destinations all based on real places. In the latest game, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Croft travels to Siberia in search of a legendary city. Her travels motivate real-life people to go out and have some adventures of their own.

The Uncharted Series
This series takes players around the world. All the destinations are based on true cities and countries and it’s obvious the developers did their research. The newest game has stunning graphics and a new feature where you can take pictures of your character at any time.
