Best Action games on PC
The 25 best Action games on PC, ranked from 20,269 critic and player ratings.
The best Action game on PC right now is God of War (2018), with a critic score of 94/100 — updated September 2026.
How this ranking is built
- Games are ranked on the aggregated critic score out of 100 imported from IGDB and Metacritic, never on Tier's own grades.
- A game only enters the ranking with at least 80 external ratings, so a single enthusiastic review never outranks a proven classic.
- Each game is ranked in one genre only, the one that defines it best, so the same title never tops two different genre charts.
- Community grades from F to S are shown next to every game, and only stated as a fact above 5 Tier ratings.
- Release window covered: 1970 to 2026.
- 25 games are listed on this page, carrying 20,269 ratings between them.
- Rankings are recomputed hourly; this one was last rebuilt on 29 September 2026.
