Video Games that are Better When High 2023

For stoners, video games and weed go hand and hand. 2022 provided gamers a whole host of new games for stoner gamers to enjoy throughout the year. Struggling to decide what video game is going to be fun while you are high? Whether you are looking to play video games high with friends or solo a campaign by yourself, here’s a list of the best video games that are better when high.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Platform: Nintendo Switch

The first game we are starting with on our list is arguably one of the greatest video games ever made, and it’s incredibly more fun to play when you are high. Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a game like no other. When it comes to the game’s objectives for completing the story, there is no specific order in which you need to complete them. If you feel like exploring the map for hours before starting one of the main story missions, you are more than welcome to. However, there in lies the beauty of this game. You have the freedom and liberty to not only explore the mysteries of Hyrule, but also improve your own skill in battles, increase your health or stamina, or even discover some of Hyrule’s greatest weapons, armor, and artifacts. Breath of the Wild encourages gamers to embrace the open-ended approach to quest structure with the ability to freely explore a vast, beautiful, captivating world with little regulation. Prepare to have large amounts of weed ready because once you begin playing you will not want to stop.

Fall Guys

Platform: PC/Xbox/PlayStation/ Nintendo Switch

Have you ever watched TV shows like Wipeout, MXC, or American Ninja Warrior while you were high? The Fall Guys video game falls under an umbrella of all three of those shows, but shares more comical traits than serious ones. If you have not become part of the Fall Guys band wagon already, there is still plenty of room for you to join. Developed by Mediatonic, Fall Guys does not fall short on the entertainment scale. I first played this game when it originally debuted on consoles, and it’s only gotten better. The maps are vibrant and colorful, there are various game modes you can play, and the characters are as silly as can be. Fall Guys achieves what it strives to do, and that is not to take itself too seriously, and you should feel the same way when you play this game. This game is definitely better when you are high, but it’s even better to play with your friends too. Roll your joints, pack your bowls, spark your lighters, turn on your PC’s and consoles and get ready to get high and game the night away.

Call of Duty is a long-standing game installment that has brought stoners pure joy. Modern Warfare II and Warzone II are no exceptions to this game installment’s trendy success. Yes, we can agree not all of Call of Duty’s installments are great, but that’s not what this article is about. For all nostalgic stoners out there, Modern Warfare II and Warzone II have reintroduced a beautiful feature for us to enjoy again, proximity chat. Now we do not condone any harmful or hate speech, but nothing is quite as rewarding as hearing your opponent angrily scream into their microphone claiming you aren’t even good after you’ve eliminated them in the game. The combination of cannabis and Call of Duty is timeless. Regardless if you are playing multiplayer on Modern Warfare II or Warzone II, playing either of these games are better when high.

Grand Theft Auto V

Platform: PC/Xbox/PlayStation/ Nintendo Switch

For some stoners, their first experience smoking weed may have taken place while hanging out with friends playing the very first Grand Theft Auto (GTA), Grand Theft Auto: Vice City or San Andreas. Maybe you even enjoyed your first joint while playing the first installment of GTA back in 1997. Most gamers could not believe the freedom they had in GTA. Whether it’s running over pedestrians, sucker punching every pedestrian, robbing banks, leading cops on the wildest car chase of their life, or obeying every traffic law known to man, GTA is a gamer’s dream of a sandbox. Regardless, the freedom and liberty GTA provides gamers is endless. If GTA is a game unfamiliar to you, go ahead and purchase or download GTA V and see what the hype is about. However, make sure to pack a bowl first, whether it’s in game (yes you can smoke cannabis in the game) or in real life, because Grand Theft Auto is absolutely better when high.

God of War

Platform: PC/PlayStation

God of War for PS4 released in 2018, 8 years after developers Santa Monica Studios released God of War 3. Let me be the first to say issue a long overdue thank you to Santa Monica Studios for not only creating my favorite game I’ve ever played, but they also released it on a stoner’s favorite holiday, 4/20. I have yet to play God of War Ragnarök, but I have the utmost faith it is equally enjoyable, if not more enjoyable than God of War. For many first-time players, you will fall in love with every aspect of this game. The characters are well-crafted and offer entertaining dialogue, side-quests do not feel tedious or time wasting, the world itself is immersive with different regions to explore from Norse mythology, and the game mechanics are immaculate. Playing this game high will be one of the most enjoyable gaming experiences you will have, and you may find yourself researching more about Norse mythology after playing.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Platform: PC/Xbox/PlayStation/ Nintendo Switch

Oh, you’re finally awake. If you do not know where that first sentence derives from, it sounds like you need to get high and play Skyrim immediately. Skyrim is one of the most significant open world role-playing games (RPG) in the world of video games and continues to make an impact a decade after their last release. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, released in 2011, and continues to be played by many loyal fans. Over a thousand quests and dungeons are available for gamers to complete, meaning you will need to smoke plenty of cannabis for your journey. I recommend using the fast travel feature lightly, because one of Skyrim’s most impressive qualities wandering in the immersive world around you. For myself, I could spend paragraphs detailing how great this game is, but you are much better off smoking a bowl and exploring the world of Skyrim yourself high as a kite.

Red Dead Redemption 2

Red Dead Redemption 2 is the third installment of Rockstar’s Red Dead series and is undeniably the greatest out of all three. Yes, Red Dead Redemption 2’s obvious advantage over the previous installments is the utilization of today’s current gaming era: next-gen consoles, high-quality gaming monitors, and the use of modern technology. However, do not let those details overshadow the previous masterpieces of Red Dead Revolver and Red Dead Redemption, both earning highly successful launches. One of the most enticing qualities of this game is the storytelling and impact the main character Arthur Morgan impacts on you. I must admit it is the first video game in my gaming history to almost cause me to cry at the end of the it all. In addition to it’s excellent story and characters, the map is immaculate. You can easily find yourself distant from your current objective’s location as a result of unintentional map exploration. The best part about the exploration? It is fulfilling. There are various mysteries to solve, treasure maps to hunt, and vast amounts of side missions to complete. So put your cowboy hat on, spark up a joint, and get ready to take on the Wild West because Red Dead Redemption 2 is better when high.
