5. Halo Wars

All in all, Halo Wars is a fantastic title and one of the best Xbox games for Achievement Hunters.

4. Halo: Master Chief CollectionVideo Game Trilogies You'll Love if You Enjoyed Shadowrun

Staying somewhat in the same vein, we have Halo: Master Chief Collection. This is a title that combines the greatest elements of the Halo franchise into one fantastic package. Players are able to play through all of the mainline Halo titles up until Halo 4. This is fantastic, as it offers players plenty of value for their money, as well as a great experience overall. Players can even complete activities to earn achievement points with friends. This makes completely completing the game rather easy, for those determined to do so.

The experience toward completion is also varied in quite a few ways. Players will have to find Skulls throughout the game's levels and perform various actions in order to earn achievements.

3. Shadow of Mordor

Switching things up quite a bit for our next entry, we have Shadow of Mordor. This is a game that was highly praised for several reasons, including its combat, and Nemesis systems. For those unaware, this system essentially allowed enemy NPCs to take on a life of their own and form rivalries with the player. This was a rather novel idea at the time, but in hindsight, it is plain to see how genius of inclusion this is. The game itself has a gritty atmosphere, and perfectly encapsulates the more horrific elements of the universe.

Another fantastic aspect of the Nemesis system is the fact that it generates a different enemy every playthrough, this keeps it from getting stale. For Achievement Hunters, this game is also great due to the straightforwardness of its achievements. This means, that if a player were so inclined, and had the foreknowledge to do so, they can complete a 100% percent run of the game in one go. This is great for players who wish to save time and energy in their achievement hunting. To close, Shadow of Mordor is one of the Xbox games that is perfect for Achievement Hunters.

2. Sea of Thieves

For our next entry, we have a title that wonderfully captures the essence of adventure on the high seas. Sea of Thieves is a title that, despite receiving its fair share of criticism initially, has blossomed into a wonderful title. This game allows players to participate in a wealth of content, and even bring friends along for the ride. This is great, as there are few feelings as intrinsically satisfying as living a life on the high seas with friends. As far as achievement hunting goes, however, the game is also rather simple to complete.

In the game. players will be responsible for exploring vast oceans and finding treasures along the way. The game's simplistic gameplay loop makes it really approachable, even for beginner Achievement Hunters. For players who wish to dedicate their time, however, there is a shocking amount of things to do on the road to completion.
