Depth

Gameplay comes before story

An asymmetric underwater online multiplayer shooter in which a team of divers hunts for treasure while sharks ambush them. The appeal comes from the mix of teamwork, lurking and sudden chases.

Rising Storm 2: Vietnam

Challenging difficulty

A punishing multiplayer tactical shooter set in the Vietnam War, featuring large-scale battles, lethal gunplay and asymmetric factions, with US forces and the Viet Cong fighting amid jungle traps and relying heavily on teamwork.

Hunt: Showdown 1896

Lavish presentation

A tense PvPvE extraction shooter set in the bayous of late-1800s Louisiana, where you hunt monstrous bosses while other teams hunt you. Slow period weapons, sound that gives you away and the permanent loss of your hunter make every match nerve-wracking.

Nosgoth

Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

Nosgoth was a free-to-play multiplayer spin-off set in the Legacy of Kain universe, pitting melee-focused vampires against ranged human hunters. The asymmetric team matches mixed claws, wings and crossbows in a gothic setting.

Zombie Army Trilogy

Lavish presentation

A third-person shooter set in an alternate end of World War II, where you fight hordes of Nazi zombies solo or in co-op using sniper rifles and traps. The X-ray kill cam and co-op action are the main draws.
