Best D&D Games on PC (2026 Update)

The PC has always been a great choice and a natural home for Dungeons & Dragons fans, with plenty of great games inspired by or using core mechanics from the popular tabletop RPG.

Today, I am here to share the best D&D Games you can play on PC this year, and not just official licenses. After all, the spirit of D&D isn’t just about the logo, but also about the mechanics, the party dynamics, the tactical combat, and the freedom to ruin a Game Master’s plans with a single lucky dice roll.

That is why I’m sharing the absolute best D&D games you can play on PC right now. I’ve included the official heavy hitters, but also the “spiritual successors” that use similar rulesets (like Pathfinder) or capture that specific tabletop magic better than the branded titles. Let’s jump right in!

Baldur’s Gate 3

Baldurs Gate 3

Probably the highest profile game on the list, Baldur’s Gate 3 is a relatively recent launch and an amazing D&D-like game you can play on PC.

Continuing the legacy of its predecessors in the D&D realm, BG3 is the ultimate experience for both veterans and newcomers to the genre.

Create your character and embark on a journey in the Forgotten Realms, facing dark powers, gathering a party, and shaping the fate of the realm through your choices​​.

If you’re a DnD fan, you might want to check out the previous article listing the best DnD games for Switch.

Or if you want to stick with Baldur’s Gate 3, we have plenty of guides covering the game, like the Shadowheart Romance Guide, the guide on how to romance Lae’zel and much more. Just search for “Baldur’s Gate 3” to see them all.

Or just head over to Steam and get the game.

Divinity: Original Sin 2

Divinity Original Sin 2

Before Larian Studios made Baldur’s Gate 3, they perfected the genre with this masterpiece. This is one of the best RPGs of all time, in my opinion, and an amazing option for a complete Dungeons & Dragons experience, even though it uses its own unique ruleset.

This turn-based RPG has been around for a few years, but it has aged flawlessly. The elemental interaction system (where you can make it rain, then freeze the puddles to slip enemies) adds a tactical layer that even official D&D games struggle to match. If you haven’t tried it yet, you MUST do it.

I could go as far as saying that once you start playing this game, you will never feel the need for another D&D-like one for a long time!

You can grab the game on Steam.

Zoria: Age of Shattering

Zoria Age of Shattering

In Zoria: Age of Shattering, you lead a diverse party of adventurers in a story-driven experience that focuses heavily on outpost management.

You also build relationships with companions, and explore rich environments filled with challenging tactical battles. Its deep character customization and exploration elements will resonate strongly with classic D&D fans, and the game itself will keep you busy and entertained for countless hours.

It is a solid hidden gem for those who love the “management” side of adventuring.

Check it out on Steam.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard

Dragon Age The Veilguard

If you prefer your D&D experience to be more action-forward and cinematic, Dragon Age: The Veilguard is the blockbuster you need to install.

While it leans heavier into action combat than the tactical turn-based entries on this list, the DNA is undeniable: you build a party of diverse misfits, manage their relationships (and romances), and save the world from an ancient magical threat.

It captures the “party banter” aspect of a tabletop campaign perfectly. The production value is through the roof, making it a great entry point if you find isometric views and complex math a bit dry. It’s a spectacle, and sometimes, that’s exactly what a campaign needs.

Check it out on Steam.

For the King 2

For the King 2

Battle against Fahrul’s tyrannical Queen alone or as a party of four players in this sequel to the massively popular turn-based roguelite.

While you definitely can’t go wrong playing the first game, the sequel rises to the expectations, and I recommend starting here if you haven’t played the original.

This game replicates the “board game” feel better than almost anything else. You physically move characters across hexes, roll checks for movement, and engage in turn-based combat.

Despite the cartoony visuals, For the King 2 is a very solid, in-depth game for Dungeons & Dragons fans.

You can check out the game over on Steam.

Wildermyth

Wildermyth

If Baldur’s Gate flawlessly simulates the mechanics of D&D, Wildermyth simulates the storytelling.

This is a procedural storytelling RPG where your characters grow old, fall in love, lose limbs, get corrupted by magic, and eventually retire or die.

You start with simple farmers and turn them into legendary heroes over decades of in-game time.

The magic system uses the environment, which feels incredibly creative. No two campaigns are the same. If you want a game that captures the feeling of “our unique story that we made up at the table,” this is it.

Get the game from Steam.

Stolen Realm

Stolen Realm

Stolen Realm is a simultaneous turn-based tactical dungeon crawling looter with action RPG elements where you control up to 6 heroes, solo or through online co-op, venturing forth in adventures set in a high-fantasy, low-poly world.

You get an interesting mixture of Divinity: Original Sin and fast-paced gameplay, with the co-op version being an interesting addition, allowing players to drop in or out whenever they feel like, without influencing the game’s progress.

With a highly customizable class system, Stolen Realm allows you to create traditional RPG classes or break the mold to forge a unique champion of your own as you draw from a pool of hundreds of possible skills. Definitely worth trying.

You can check it out on Steam.

Vagrus – The Riven Realms

Embark on a perilous journey across a realm forsaken by the gods and devastated by an arcane cataclysm.

Accompanied by a hardy crew, you must trade, fight, and explore your way to success as the leader of a traveling company in this story-driven RPG.

Check it out on Steam here.

If you also play the classic Dungeons & Dragons version, make sure to also read my previous article sharing the best DnD Dice Sets for the game.

Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader

Warhammer 40,000 Rogue Trader

Swap your swords for chainswords and your wizard for a psyker! Rogue Trader is built by Owlcat Games (the same team behind Pathfinder), and it translates the deep, crunchy RPG mechanics we love into the Grim Dark future.

You play as a Rogue Trader, essentially a privateer with a spaceship the size of a city and the authority to decide the fate of entire planets.

The combat is turn-based and highly tactical, focusing on cover and positioning. It’s dense, complex, and incredibly rewarding for players who love reading stats and optimizing builds. It is essentially D&D in space, and it is amazing.

Grab the game from Steam.

Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms

idle champions of the forgotten realms

We’re sticking to the free to play formula with a game that’s not exactly what you might expect from a DnD RPG, while being as Dungeons & Dragons as possible – as impossible as it might seem.

The thing is that you have to try it (I repeat: it’s a free idle game) and you’ll see what I mean.

You unlock Champions from across the Dungeons & Dragons multiverse, master each Champion’s formation abilities and adventure through cities like Waterdeep, Neverwinter, and Baldur’s Gate – to name just a few.

Now, I think it starts to make sense why this free idle game is VERY Dungeons & Dragons, and a great choice to play on PC.

Check it out on Steam here.

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

Wrath of the Righteous

This is the spiritual successor to Pathfinder: Kingmaker, improving on it with refined mechanics and a massive new storyline. While Kingmaker is great, Wrath of the Righteous is the one you should play this year.

You explore the nature of good and evil, learn the true cost of power, and rise as a Mythic Hero capable of deeds beyond mortal expectations, like becoming a Lich, an Angel, or a literal Swarm of Insects.

It uses the Pathfinder 1st Edition ruleset, which is notoriously more complex than D&D 5th Edition. Its complex systems make it the perfect choice for power-gamers who love spending hours in character creation menus.

Check it out on Steam.

Baldur’s Gate 1 & 2

Baldur's Gate 2 Enhanced Edition screenshot

Yes, I know that these games are pretty old, but I still wanted to feature them because they’re among the absolute best D&D games ever made and can be considered landmarks without a doubt.

I recommend grabbing the enhanced editions of the games for a bit of a visual upgrade. Remember, these games are over two decades old, and even though they have aged well… they’re still old.

It’s worth playing them, though, if you are a Dungeons & Dragons fan and if you haven’t played them already.

Baldur’s Gate 1 can be found on GoG, while Baldur’s Gate 2 is available on Steam too.

Solasta: Crown of the Magister

Solasta Crown of the Magister

Going deep into the hardcore mechanics, Solasta uses the SRD for D&D 5.1 ruleset, offering a faithful adaptation with good character customization – even more so than Baldur’s Gate 3.

As you play, you’ll feel yourself reaching for your dice and miniatures. But at the same time, it will be a completely different (and much improved, I might add) experience compared to a traditional tabletop game.

The story is a bit generic compared to the big-budget titles, but the “Dungeon Maker” tool allows the community to create endless new campaigns. If you just want to play 5th Edition combat simulator, this is the king.

Check out the game on Steam.

NOTE: Solasta 2 is still in development and expected to release later in 2026, if there are no delays. Most likely, it will become the “must play” instead of the older release.

Dungeons & Dragons Neverwinter Nights 2: Enhanced Edition

Neverwinter Nights 2 Enhanced

While Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition gets a lot of love, the sequel, Neverwinter Nights 2, is the one that deserves a spot on your hard drive this year, in my opinion. It utilizes the D&D 3.5 edition rules, offering endless character build possibilities.

The base game is solid, but the expansion, Mask of the Betrayer, contains some of the finest writing in RPG history.

It deals with high-level epic play, souls, and gods. While the camera controls can be a bit finicky by modern standards, the sheer depth of the story and the toolset makes it a core D&D experience.

Check it out on Steam.

The Iron Oath

The Iron Oath

I’m rounding up the list with a more recent release – but one that I am sure will remain a great choice for years to come.

As the leader of a band of soldiers-for-hire in the harsh realm of Caelum, you’ll need to hire and customize recruits, manage your operations wisely, and embark on perilous missions in order to survive, thrive, and build your company’s renown.

The unique twist here is time. Your characters age and eventually retire or die, forcing you to constantly train new blood. It captures the feeling of a long-running mercenary campaign perfectly.

Check out the game on Steam.

Honorable Mentions

These games are also perfect for DnD fans, but they are older releases and will either seem outdated to the modern player, or you’ve already played them, most likely.

Still, they deserve to be mentioned, so I am listing them below in case you want to have even more options – most of them (if not all) being available on Steam and/or GOG.

  • Pillars of Eternity I & II: Brilliant storytelling from the masters at Obsidian.
  • Dungeons & Dragons Online: The MMO that refuses to die, still offering great dungeon crawling.
  • Planescape: Torment Enhanced Edition: The best writing in gaming history, period.
  • Icewind Dale – Enhanced Edition: Pure combat focus using classic rules.
  • Torment: Tides of Numenera: A weird, wonderful spiritual successor to Planescape.
  • The Age of Decadence: Hardcore, unforgiving, and brilliant.
  • Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition: The first one is still worth playing!
  • The Warlock of Firetop Mountain: A great digital board game adaptation.
  • Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition: Great for multiplayer servers.
  • Low Magic Age: Lesser known, tactical sandbox. Must try if you haven’t yet!

Final words

These are the absolute best DnD games you should play in 2026 on your PC or laptop. You have plenty of options, as you can see above – and I am sure that more will arrive. I will update the list when that happens.
