Sony created one of the worst Open World games I've ever played, Horizon. So I would go with no.
Nobody and i mean nobody does open world anywhere close to the level that R* does it, them guys are on another fucking planet when it comes to this sorta shit
Sony spent the last few years hitting it out of the park over and over, with God of War, Horizon: Zero Dawn and now Ghost of Tsushima. Even Days Gone, which I think is fair to say sits a tier lower than those games, gave a better overall experience than a lot of other open world games from other publishers last gen.
Is Sony currently the best publisher of open world games? And if not, who is?
They're tied with Ubisoft in keeping open world games stale.
RDR2, BoTW, Outer Wilds and Witcher 3 are the best open world games this gen.
Days Gone took it even further.RDR2 pushed forward the way the NPCs and the open-world reacts to you (honestly... nobody came close to what RDR2 was able to do with this).
I had more fun with all of them except Days Gone than I did with GTA V.The games you listed can barely touch what GTA V has to offer, let alone RDR II.
Its like calling PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale the better version of Smash Bros.
So that turns Black Ops Cold War into the best game of last year or how do those fucked up metrics of yours work exactly?SONY didn't Guerrilla Games did, and I think it has sold though over 10 million copies so I think we can all agree you are a moron.
I said that Sony has better story and gameplay than Ubisoft games, not R*...Sony does not have better stories or less repetitive gameplay than any Rockstar game. Ubisoft are not great anyway but RDR2 is the benchmark for open world, story, world simulation, characters etc
In all fairness all Sony first party open world games are decent but nothing special. I just don't understand why all this praise is heaped upon them, I sure if another company made these games they'd be scored lower. Just my opinion but I stand by it.
God of War is not open world at all. That game is classic on rails game with an overworld.I think since open worlds became a well developed, practical game design choice with Grand Theft Auto III, it's been fair to say that Rockstar has ruled the roost in the open world space. Lots of companies have also made great open world games (Mercenaries comes to mind,) and occasionally somebody has made a better GTA than Rockstar (Saints Row 3 says hello.) But even where one game might show its weakness, Rockstar always had other games to show that they weren't just sitting around stagnating, like Red Dead Redemption or L.A. Noire.
Last gen was something different. There was no GTA, and Red Dead Redemption II, as amazing as it is, had some serious flaws. And other great franchises in the space, like Assassin's Creed, couldn't help getting stale. Sony spent the last few years hitting it out of the park over and over, with God of War, Horizon: Zero Dawn and now Ghost of Tsushima. Even Days Gone, which I think is fair to say sits a tier lower than those games, gave a better overall experience than a lot of other open world games from other publishers last gen.

Fallout is open world? I have only played 4 and it wasn't open world at allFallout series says hi.
Come on. I appreciated DG but it's what would be an open world Ubisoft games with zombies...Days Gone took it even further.
soo true. add emotional story.They lead the thirdperson over the shoulder cinematic adventure genre, that's it.
It's Rockstar or Ubisoft.
I’m not sure what that means exactly but RDR2 wasn’t as interactive or detailed as Days Gone.Come on. I appreciated DG but it's what would be an open world Ubisoft games with zombies...

To be honest, no one are leading the open world, as everyone copies each other. Being more busy about stupid collectibles and whatnot to make it time consuming instead.
Sony often get teased for having too many.This feels like a thread trying to credit sony for a genre they have barely made any games for. Open world games have been around long before sony attempted its first so id say "no"
