  • Sci-fi setting
  • Lavish presentation
  • Co-op or multiplayer

Master Chief returns to a semi-open ringworld where the grappleshot and vehicles let you tackle Banished outposts your own way, framed by a more personal story. A free-to-play multiplayer suite brings back classic, fast-paced Halo arena combat.

Gears 5

Sci-fi setting

A punchy cover shooter in which Kait Diaz digs into her ties to the Locust. The campaign opens up at times with explorable vehicle hub areas and can be played in co-op. Horde, Escape and Versus modes round out the package.

Lost Planet 3

Action-packed real-time combat

A third-person shooter on the frozen world of E.D.N. III, where rig pilot Jim Peyton braves blizzards in his utility mech and battles giant Akrid creatures. Its blue-collar frontier story, told through messages home to his family, gives this prequel a surprisingly personal touch.

Quake II

Action-packed real-time combat

A landmark sci-fi shooter: a lone marine fights through the industrial hellscape of Stroggos against a cybernetic alien army. It delivers fast gunplay, interconnected hub levels, a pounding metal soundtrack, and influential deathmatch multiplayer.

Marathon

Sci-fi setting

Bungie's extraction shooter drops you as a cybernetic Runner, solo or in a crew of three, onto the mysterious world of Tau Ceti IV to grab loot and fight rival players for a successful escape. Its bold, graphic-design-driven sci-fi aesthetic sets it apart from typical military shooters.

Unreal

Action-packed real-time combat

A 1998 classic first-person shooter in which you crash-land on an alien world and explore striking landscapes and ancient architecture while fighting the brutal invaders who enslaved a peaceful race. It stresses atmosphere and discovery alongside the gunplay.

Destiny

Sci-fi setting

Bungie's shared-world shooter pairs silky Halo-style gunplay with loot chasing, cooperative strikes and raids, wrapped in an evocative space-myth setting and a superb soundtrack.

Tribes: Vengeance

Action-packed real-time combat

A fast sci-fi first-person shooter in the Tribes series built around jetpack skiing and large maps. The campaign follows several characters through the birth of the Tribal War, but the multiplayer is the main draw.

Gears of War 2

Sci-fi setting

A brutal cover-based shooter where Marcus Fenix and his squad take the fight to the Locust underground, chainsaw bayonets roaring. Co-op campaign play and the debut of Horde mode made it a multiplayer staple.
