Online Multiplayer Games

Multiplayer games are ideal if you want to take on the world in fun online battles and 3D open worlds. Read on for some top recommendations if you’re unsure what game you want to play next.

Multiplayer IO Games

The most popular multiplayer games feature an open arena and real-time battles with other players. Many of these arena battle games are called .io games and are always available to play in your web browser — no download required. 

A popular .io game at the moment is Betrayal.io, an online game inspired by Among Us, which improves on several aspects of the renowned original game.

Slither.io and EvoWorld are two other popular multiplayer games in this genre, but there are so many more than we can here!

Online Shooting Games

Most online shooting games are FPS (first-person shooter) games. These are some of the most popular multiplayer games and have been since the rise of hugely influential titles like Counter-Strike. 

The good news is, you can play similar FPS games in your web browser. Bullet Force and Krunker are two shooting games you can play on the web, and they have active communities, so you’ll always be able to find a match!

MMO Games

Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMO) have many active users and often very passionate communities. They are usually set in vast open worlds based around fantasy and mythology.

These games aren’t always available to play in your web browser, but some are definitely worth downloading.

We recommend these critically acclaimed MMO games for the best free-to-play experience:

Other Multiplayer Games

Not all multiplayer games are online. Some feature cooperation between two players locally. If you’re looking for this kind of multiplayer game, see our 2-player games for more relevant titles.

There are also multiplayer driving games, fighting games, and any other game you can think of, but online with other people who offer a greater challenge than AI opponents.

Free-to-Play

All of our multiplayer games are free-to-play, and most of them are available to play in your web browser. Free-to-play games are entirely free, but some offer the option to buy cosmetic items and occasionally other in-game items.
