Shadowgrounds Survivor

Sci-fi setting

You blast your way through dark, alien-infested facilities on Jupiter's moon Ganymede in a top-down shooter, armed with a flashlight and a heavy arsenal. You can upgrade weapons and gear and play the campaign in co-op.

Farpoint

Dark, serious atmosphere

A linear PlayStation VR shooter in which you get stranded on a hostile alien planet after an accident near Jupiter. Played with the Aim Controller, fighting off giant insectoid creatures feels especially immediate.

Quake II

Action-packed real-time combat

You blast through fast, unforgiving firefights against the mechanical Strogg in this classic sci-fi shooter. The modern re-release adds upgraded visuals, fresh campaign content and online co-op to the frantic action.

F.E.A.R. 3

Playing together in co-op

A linear horror shooter where you fight as the slow-mo-wielding Point Man or the body-possessing ghost Paxton Fettel, best played in co-op with a friend. Combat is more action-heavy than its predecessors, with the scares somewhat toned down.

Aliens: Colonial Marines

Playing together in co-op

A first-person shooter set in the Aliens universe where you fight xenomorphs and mercenaries as a Colonial Marine, solo or in co-op. Known for leaning on the franchise's atmosphere, but also for its technical and design shortcomings.

Resident Evil: Revelations

Dark, serious atmosphere

A survival-horror shooter set aboard an eerie luxury liner, mixing claustrophobic exploration with scarce ammo and chapters that switch between characters. The HD version brings the handheld adventure to consoles and PC with improved visuals.

Dead Space: Extraction

Dread and tension

An on-rails shooter in the Dead Space universe that shows the early Necromorph outbreak on the Aegis VII colony through several survivors. Aimed shooting, limb dismemberment and a grim atmosphere deliver cinematic, intense horror.

Dead Space 3

Dread and tension

Isaac Clarke battles Necromorphs on the frozen planet Tau Volantis, severing limbs strategically and building custom weapons at workbenches. More action-heavy than its predecessors, it adds drop-in co-op with John Carver.

Doom 3

Dread and tension

A grim first-person shooter set on a Mars research base where hell breaks loose. Cramped, pitch-black corridors, jump scares and scarce resources make it feel more like survival horror than the fast-paced classic Doom.
