2. Stardew Valley

If we were to live in the Stardew Valley universe, our only hope is that those catchy tunes play in the background too. This adorable 8-bit game is just meant to be lived in. Perfect your ideal farm, find true love, and spend your days living the cozy country life. With the game focused on playing at your own pace, it just sounds like such a great world to exist in.

7. Pokémon

If we asked which video game world a majority of people would want to live in, we know Pokémon would be at the top of the list. After all, who wouldn't want to co-exist with these unique creatures we'd call our friends? Travel around the world visiting different regions, grow your Pokémon team, and fight to become the very best. That sounds like a quest we'd love to take on.

8. The Legend of Zelda

After Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom were released on the Switch, this universe skyrocketed as somewhere people would love to live. With such beautiful art done on the landscapes, we'd want to come here just to take in all that beauty! But with cool added perks like crafting and fun places to explore, it's safe to say Hyrule is a top pick for us.

9. Super Mario Bros.

A familiar place we all know and love, living in the Mushroom Kingdom from the Super Mario Bros. games sounds like a dream come true. There's just something so magical about the thought of portaling from place to place and bouncing on giant mushrooms. It's an added bonus that everything looks so cute too!

10. Kingdom Hearts

If you're a Disney fan at heart, we know exactly what your first pick would be. Kingdom Hearts is a world that crosses over with the Disney universe, including so many beloved characters we know you'd love to meet. For that reason alone, it seems like such a fun place to be.

11. Star Wars

It doesn't matter which Star Wars game it is, fans would just love to be a part of and experience this universe. Whether it's getting to hold an actual lightsaber, flying one of the jets, or exploring the amazing world, we know so many people who would love to have a chance to live in one of these games.

12. Red Dead Redemption

If we're talking about aesthetics and scenery alone, nothing tops Red Dead Redemption. While gamers appreciate it for a number of reasons, we'd like to highlight how beautiful the world looks. We'd love a chance to soak in all those amazing landscapes.

13. Moonstone Island

A cross between Pokémon and Stardew Valley, Moonstone Island gives you the best of both worlds. Capture and befriend a wild variety of different creatures, explore new uninhabited islands, and mine for precious gems. The cute 8-bit animation makes the world look visually appealing while all the different activities make it somewhere enticing to live in.

15. League of Legends

Don't be mistaken - while the actual game consists of constant fighting and battles on Summoner's Rift, there's so much lore behind this game that we would love to explore. Just watch the hit show Arcane for a taste of what this universe has to offer! From Piltover to Ionia and Demacia, there are so many unique cities with different focuses that would be so cool to see in real life.

16. Ori and the Blind Forest

Take away all the dangers and monsters trying to get you and all you're left with is a stunning, jaw-dropping forest full of spirits and magic. Ori and the Blind Forest might not be a world that comes to mind at first, but one look at the amazing animation is all you'll need to be convinced otherwise. For those looking for a mystical experience that'll wake up your soul, this is it.

17. Dave The Diver

Explore all the beauty you can find underseas by taking Dave's place in the hit game Dave the Diver. Swim around to your heart's content during the day, discovering new creatures and sights every time, and then work your heart out in a sushi restaurant at night. It's an interesting mix but hey, Dave seems to love it so why wouldn't we?

18. No Man's Sky

If all you really care about is entering a world that's entirely new, untouched, and undiscovered, No Man's Sky is likely what you're craving. This game is all about exploration (and survival, but let's take that out of the equation) where you get to travel the universe and see what's really out there in the world.

19. Lost Ark

Take away all the creepy monsters, raid bosses, and elite mobs and we would consider living in the world of Lost Ark. With so many different continents to explore, you'll spend endless days just trying to map everything out. Not only do you get to customize your character to your heart's content, but you also get to pick out a cool class with accompanying spells and abilities we know you'd love to test out.

20. Genshin Impact

Genshin Impact isn't one of the hottest games in the world for no reason. Known for its amazing plethora of characters, beautiful worlds, and cute creatures, did we convince you this is a world worth living in yet? We can only imagine just how breathtaking all the sights would be if we could enter this game for real.
