  • Lots of humour
  • Sci-fi setting
  • Strong character progression

A loot shooter set on Pandora's moon, where low gravity, oxygen management and ground-pound attacks put a fresh spin on the combat. It tells the story of Handsome Jack's rise to villainy with the series' trademark irreverent humor, and it's best played in co-op.

Borderlands 2

Lots of humour

A loud, cel-shaded loot shooter packed with countless randomly generated guns, irreverent humor and one of gaming's most memorable villains, Handsome Jack. It shines brightest as a chaotic four-player co-op hunt for ever better loot.

Borderlands 4

Open world

A colorful looter-shooter sending Vault Hunters to the new planet Kairos, packed with endless procedurally generated guns, deep skill trees and a now seamless open world with expanded movement. It shines brightest as chaotic co-op mayhem with friends.

WildStar

Co-op or multiplayer

WildStar is a colorful, humorous sci-fi MMO set on the planet Nexus, with action-style combat built around aiming and dodging, plus group content and player housing. Its servers shut down in 2018.

Mycopunk

Co-op or multiplayer

A cooperative first-person shooter where a squad of misfit robot exterminators clears a fungus-ridden planet, mixing and upgrading loadouts along the way. Sardonic corporate humor and a bold, colorful style give it its own flavor.

Shadow Warrior 2

Lots of humour

A frantic first-person shooter where wisecracking Lo Wang slices and shoots through demon hordes with blades, guns and magic. Loot, skill upgrades and four-player co-op give it strong replay value.

Deep Rock Galactic

Co-op or multiplayer

Play as gruff space dwarves carving through fully destructible procedural caves with up to three friends, mining minerals and holding off massive alien swarms. Complementary classes, dry humor and a famously wholesome community make every dive a blast – Rock and Stone!
