Doom 3

Sci-fi setting

Scars Above

Singularity

Sci-fi setting

A sci-fi shooter set on an abandoned Soviet island, where a time-manipulation device lets you age enemies to dust, restore decayed objects and solve environmental puzzles. Its BioShock-style horror atmosphere frames a Cold War time-paradox story.

Resistance 3

Sci-fi setting

A grim first-person shooter set in an alien-ravaged 1950s America, where you fight to survive as Joseph Capelli. Upgradeable weapons, the weapon wheel and a co-op campaign define the experience.
