The best multiplayer games for Android – our top ten picks

The mobile gaming industry has exploded in the last decade. Phones and tablets have become more powerful, allowing them to display truly immersive gameplay and graphics on the hardware, but it’s connectivity that really makes these games special. Here are a few games that take advantage of this feature and offer some awesome multiplayer experiences on Android devices.

Between us

It would be a pity of us not to include this game in this list. Among Us is one of the most popular and entertaining multiplayer games of all time. The fact that you can play with friends on any platform has made the game one of the breakout hits of the last few years. Although developer Inner Sloth has spent a lot of time optimizing the game for each platform you play on, many of the tasks feel tailor-made for Android devices.

Black Desert Mobile

There aren’t many true MMOs out there for Android devices, but Black Desert Mobile is certainly one of the best. This is the mobile version of the very popular Black Desert online game and as you would expect some of the UI and graphics will be stripped down. However, it’s still a stunningly beautiful world to explore and a growing community of players to interact with, offering you the full MMORPG experience in the palm of your hand.

Call of Duty: Mobile

If you’re an FPS fan, chances are you’ve played Call of Duty before. The mobile version of this game offers as close to the full CoD experience as you will get on Android devices. There are many strategies and tactics that contribute to winning every round. The graphics, gameplay, and overall feel of Call of Duty: Mobile fit exactly what you’ve come to expect from the series.

clash of clans

This is the game that spawned a hundred imitators, but it’s still one of the best PvP kingdom building games you can buy. Expand your kingdom, raise your army and defend it against other players while fighting to expand your borders. Although it first released nearly a decade ago, the playerbase is still vibrant and the cartoonish art style is still holding up well.

Fourteen days

The biggest name in battle royale games can be found on almost every platform, including Android. Although it’s not available through the Google Play Store due to an ongoing dispute between Google and Epic Games, you can still download it from the Epic Games app and play it along with your friends on other platforms. The player base is large enough that you can always join a match, and new content is released regularly enough that you never run out of new skins to earn or new battles to fight.

Genshin Impact

If you’ve played Breath of the Wild and wished it had more cute anime characters, then Genshin Impact is the game for you. This free-to-play game features some of the best-implemented gacha mechanics you’ll ever see and a vast world to explore and domains to team up with other players to clear. Genshin Impact is a fun game with a lot of lore and lots of great characters to choose from.

Hearthstone

Hearthstone continues to be one of the best multiplayer games on Android and has been an industry staple for eight years since it was first released. The game’s lore, deep deck building mechanics, and passionate community have kept it fresh and relevant all these years later. Build your team of heroes from across the Warcraft universe and battle it out against other players. The competitive scene is a different beast altogether, with tournaments and big cash prizes on offer for those with the skill and luck to get to the top.

Mario Kart Tour

Most people have indulged in Mario Kart before, but this is the first time the series has jumped to a non-Nintendo platform. Get it on Android devices and play titles based not only on familiar Nintendo characters, but also on real-world locations. The gameplay has been modified to work better on Android, so it’s not quite the same as the console version, but it’s still incredibly fun and chaotic whether you’re playing solo or against players from around the world. Just watch out for those blue shells.

Minecraft

If you want to explore a huge world and have the freedom to create anything you want from the materials in it, Minecraft is the game for you. Immerse yourself in a world of blocks and let your imagination run wild as you try to survive alongside your friends. Even if they play on different platforms, they can still join in the fun.

Pokemon Go

Pokémon Go has changed a lot since its release in 2016. There are many events to participate in and whole new generations of Pokémon to find, capture, and train. Help your chosen team defend your local gym and join players in your community to battle legendary Pokémon in the wild.
