There was one called Immortals Fenyx Rising that I remember being quite similar to BotW. Unfortunately it's Ubisoft

I haven’t played this, but Crimson Desert seems pretty close

Horizon Zero Dawn is on steam. Amazing game. Open world. I haven’t played the second one yet but I need to.

Not the MOST open world but the new tomb raider games are pretty great. Exploration, crafting, axing badguys in their stupid faces. Friendship, Bow and arrows. It’s a good set of games.

Crimson Desert is very inspired by BOTW/TOTK, and a bunch of other games, rolled into one. It’s also on PC.

Here is a few I can think of that are a bit similar Sable Bastion Planet of Lana A Short Hike Spirit of the North TASOMACHI: Behind the Twilight AER Memories of Old The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Btw, you should definitely try Elden ring if you haven’t already

I enjoyed botw and totk, so you might also enjoy Enshrouded. Open world, lots of craft ability, base building and combat is fun and challenging. It’s a little less cartoony than Zelda but definitely not as intense as Elden Ring. They are still in early access but the next big update should be 1.0.

Another one to consider if you prefer less intense (i.e. frustrating) combat is Swords N Magic and Stuff. It’s on Steam in early access and is a steal for about $25. It offers the large open world and tons of exploration along with a variety of play-style options, crafting, and farming. The only thing it doesn’t really seem to offer is the over-arching narrative but there is definitely lore to discover along the way.

I’ve found Palworld to be a lot like that, and it’s hitting 1.0 in July or so.

The Outer Wilds All due respect to the other recommendations in this thread (The Witcher 3 is in my top 3 favorite games ever), but I get the sense you’re looking for a similar vibe - that self-paced, quiet, almost lonely exploration where, though you do have a goal, the point of the game is to wander the world and discover things. While most of these recs (and most open world games in general, so it’s understandable) have a strong story focus, The Outer Wilds will give you that quiet, unguided exploration BoTW does so well. (And I know explicitly turned down souls-likes, but Elden Ring also hits that vibe super well. If you’re really stuck for something to play, it might be worth a try with one of the magic-focused builds that significantly reduce the skill needed)

Skyrim Admittedly it’s a bit older

Really enjoying outward right now. It feels like a mix of botw Elden ring and a healthy dose of modded skyrim
