Winning a game of Rainbow Six Siege feels absolutely amazing, and the dopamine rush has carried many fans through countless all-night sessions. Most players enjoy playing Siege with a group, but a solo queue is also an option. Still, losing and winning are both much more fun with friends.

6 Fortnite

A Beginner-Friendly Battle Royale

Almost every gamer on the planet has heard of Fortnite, and there's a reason for that. Fortnite is a lot of fun, even if it is quite casual. The great thing about casual games, though, is that they are very easy to hop on and grind.

Sailing with a group is fun and combat on the high seas is intense, especially with mountains of loot underneath the ship.

Rust is a great game for hardcore players that like to sink a ton of time into their games. Players start out with nothing but a rock, akin to many open world sandbox games, and have to craft and build their way to a full base of guns, armor, and scrap. Players can even play poker all night if they want to.

3 Dark And Darker

Medieval Extraction FPS

Dark And Darker is great for players that enjoy extraction shooters like Escape from Tarkov, but also want to experience some riveting sword combat. Dark And Darker has players choose a class based on classic archetypes like warrior, mage, barbarian, etc. And head into a dungeon alone or with friends to collect as much loot as possible before escaping.

Dark And Darker is perfect for all-nighters because players keep their loot every time they escape. This creates a riveting gameplay loop that allows players to hoard a ton of awesome gear in preparation for a big run and then, of course, eventually lose that awesome gear only to try again.

2 Total War: Warhammer 3

4X Strategy With Infinite Things To Do

There are only a handful of 4X Strategy games with excellent combat and Total War: Warhammer III is one of the best. The combat in Warhammer is akin to RTS games, but on a much larger scale with huge armies. This makes it easy to play all night.

Combine the RTS combat with a grand strategy and kingdom management system somewhat similar to Civilization, and players have a game that can last forever, especially when playing with friends.

1 Sid Meier’s Civilization 6

Just One More Turn

Sid Meier's Civilization VI, just like all the Civilization games before it, is best known for luring players into a trance and wiping away their night by tricking them into playing one more turn, finishing one more building, and finishing one more task. Of course, it's never really just one more.

Civilization does not have to be played against other players, but there's nothing quite like starting a fresh game with a couple of friends and letting the night fly by. There's always something to get done, which means there's always another turn to play.
