Contra: Rogue Corps

Action-packed real-time combat

A third-person twin-stick shooter that carries the Contra series forward with chaotic firefights, over-the-top violence and irreverent humor. You blast through hordes and huge bosses solo or in co-op with a cast of different characters.

Earth Defense Force 2025

Action-packed real-time combat

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.

Wolfenstein: Youngblood

Action-packed real-time combat

A co-op shooter set in an alternate 1980s Nazi-occupied Paris, where you play as BJ's twin daughters with a friend or AI partner across semi-open districts. Leveling and weapon upgrades add RPG-lite elements to the punchy Wolfenstein gunplay.

Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core

Sci-fi setting

A cooperative first-person roguelite shooter where a team of dwarves tunnels through fully destructible, procedurally generated caves on Hoxxes IV, fighting alien swarms. Teamwork, class roles and progression across runs are the core appeal.

Helldivers 2

Sci-fi setting

A chaotic co-op shooter steeped in satirical militarism, where up to four players call down orbital strikes and supplies via stratagem inputs and, thanks to always-on friendly fire, frequently blow each other up. A persistent galactic war has the whole community fighting over planets together.

Mothergunship

Action-packed real-time combat

A frantic bullet-hell FPS where you assemble ridiculously oversized guns from modular parts and blast through randomized ship levels against robotic invaders. The gun crafting is the core hook, delivering chaotic fun, including in co-op.

Mycopunk

Sci-fi setting

A cooperative first-person shooter where a squad of misfit robot exterminators clears a fungus-ridden planet, mixing and upgrading loadouts along the way. Sardonic corporate humor and a bold, colorful style give it its own flavor.

Duke Nukem 3D

Action-packed real-time combat

A cult classic boomer shooter starring a wisecracking action hero blasting aliens through interactive, maze-like city levels packed with secrets. Its crude satirical humor, inventive weapons and destructible environments made it an icon of 90s FPS design.

TimeSplitters 2

Lots of humour

A fast, tongue-in-cheek first-person shooter that hops through wildly different eras and genre parodies. Its standout features are the split-screen multiplayer with bots and the built-in map editor.
