MechAssault

Action-packed real-time combat

A fast, explosive mech shooter set in the BattleTech universe, and the first BattleMech game on Xbox, with destructive combat and online multiplayer built for consoles.

Space Drifters 2D

Shooting and gunplay

A top-down space shooter in the vein of Asteroids, featuring Newtonian physics-based movement. Local co-op and several versus modes make it well suited to couch play.

Aegis Wing

Shooting and gunplay

An Xbox arcade space shooter where you fend off an Araxian invasion solo or with up to three friends. Insane mode offers bigger rewards but lives up to its punishing name.

Gatling Gears

Action-packed real-time combat

You pilot a mech in twin-stick style and blast your way through an empire's armies, solo or in co-op. It is a fast, arcade-like shooter with a steampunk flavor.

Protonwar

Co-op or multiplayer

A fast-paced arena shooter built around fluid, quick movement, with free-for-all and team modes, bots, and a Horde mode for solo or co-op. It can be played on a monitor or in full room-scale VR.

Earth Defense Force 2025

Shooting and gunplay

A gleefully cheesy third-person shooter where you mow down swarms of giant insects and robots in destructible cities, solo or in co-op. B-movie charm, chaos and weapon collecting define the fun.
