Mafia: The Old Country

Strong, story-driven narrative

A linear, cinematic crime saga set in early 1900s Sicily, following Enzo Favara's rise from forced laborer to Mafia soldier. Cover shootouts, knife duels and stealth sections serve a richly atmospheric story of loyalty and family.

Alekhine's Gun

Tactical depth

A Cold War stealth action game where you play an agent uncovering conspiracies, betrayal and nuclear threats. It follows the Death to Spies series and favors careful sneaking and disguises over open firefights.

The Last of Us Remastered

Strong, story-driven narrative

An emotional, cinematic survival adventure in a world ravaged by fungal infection, where you guide Ellie across the US as Joel. Tense stealth and gunplay support one of gaming's most acclaimed stories.

Resident Evil Requiem

Challenging difficulty

The ninth mainline Resident Evil switches between vulnerable FBI analyst Grace Ashcroft, whose sections lean on classic survival horror, and the more action-heavy Leon S. Kennedy. Their two storylines weave together into a grim, emotional tale.

The Last of Us

Strong, story-driven narrative

Joel and Ellie cross a fungus-ravaged America in a tense survival adventure of scarce resources, brutal stealth-shooter encounters, and one of gaming's most affecting, character-driven stories.

Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell

Tactical depth

As NSA operative Sam Fisher you creep through shadows, using night vision and gadgets to stay unseen across tense, linear and demanding missions. A landmark of the stealth genre with a groundbreaking light-and-shadow system.

Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty

Tactical depth

Kojima's landmark stealth thriller moves espionage to an offshore facility, pairing smart enemy AI, gadgets and bizarre bosses with a twisting, meta-fictional story about information control. It deliberately subverts player expectations and was far ahead of its time.

Metal Gear Solid

Tactical depth

Kojima's stealth classic sends Solid Snake to infiltrate a snowy nuclear weapons facility, rewarding sneaking over shooting. Its cinematic storytelling, codec conversations, memorable bosses like Psycho Mantis and fourth-wall-breaking tricks made it a genre-defining landmark.

The Last of Us Part II

Strong, story-driven narrative

A brutal, emotionally harrowing revenge story in a ruined world that uses two perspectives to question the cycle of violence. Tense stealth-survival combat meets outstanding cinematic presentation and performances.
