Shooters

Following a string of disappointing releases in recent years, many consider Activision’s new first-person shooter to be the franchise’s last chance saloon. Rather than disappearing into the darkness, Call of Duty has accomplished the unthinkable and effectively rebooted the series’ most famous individual brand.

Modern Warfare returns to the basics, eschewing futuristic and historical themes in favour of a contemporary setting. A brand new engine is now in use, the first in a long time, which improves not only the graphics but also the core gameplay.

The biggest change is in online, where Activision has removed all paid DLC and instead made all core content available to all players for free. You can buy a Battle Pass akin to Fortnite’s to unlock extra achievements over the course of each season, but it’s not required and offers no exclusive content.

Even if it isn’t always delivered in the most polite manner, the campaign has plenty to say. I’d like to see more of this environment, but I just wish they hadn’t made waterboarding a minigame.

Battlefield V is a first-person shooter that was

Battlefield V is a sequel to the hugely successful Battlefield 1. It transports players from the First to the Second World Wars, with a variety of different arms, vehicles, and terrains to combat through. Unlike the current Call of Duty game, Battlefield V features an anthology-style single-player campaign that focuses on unique WWII tales. Although the campaign is thrilling, Battlefield V is all about multiplayer.

Battlefield V has a typical set of common multiplayer modes, such as Conquest, but the addition of Grand Operations is more intriguing. It’s a new multiplayer mode that spans several days, with the campaign’s plot (as well as each team’s resources) changing depending on the outcome of each battle.

That’s not all; Firestorm, a new battle royale mode with massive, completely destructible environments and vehicles not included in the base game, is also included.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is a first-person shooter game.

CS: GO is one of the most successful first-person shooter games on the market right now, and it provides a more “real” experience than blockbuster FPS war games. There are several game modes to choose from, as well as a variety of weapons and skins.

Skins are very important in CS: GO because they allow you to customise the look of your weapon, and people take them very seriously – to the point that rare skins are sold for real money on the internet.

Doomsday

The 2016 reboot of the classic Doom series restores Doom to its initial state of madness. It begins with a light skull crush before plunging you headfirst into the action within minutes of starting the game, and you’ll be fighting in Hell within an hour.

It defies traditional FPS cover-and-shoot conventions by forcing players to move continuously in order to avoid being surrounded by the enemy and eliminated. Throughout the game, you’ll come across various power-ups that will give you an advantage in combat and make your destruction that much more brutal.

Look no further than Doom if you’re looking for an easy, gruesome, and entertaining shooter to play.

Exodus from the Metro

Metro Exodus is the third and final instalment in the massively successful Metro series, and it’s fair to say it’s the best yet. In Exodus, Artyom and the Spartan Rangers leave the grim, dank Metro system behind to embark on a cross-country quest in search of other explorers and a safe haven.

The game is the first in the series to feature an open-world style, with four distinct worlds packed with post-apocalyptic attractions and, of course, deadly mutated animals to avoid. Despite the fact that there are many open world areas to explore, Metro Exodus maintains the series’ panicked, claustrophobic atmosphere.

The gunplay is the game’s highlight; while the horror FPS is tense and frightening, you can protect yourself with a wide variety of weapons, all of which are highly customisable on-the-fly, allowing you to find the perfect mix for any firefight.

Essentially, Metro Exodus is the game for you if you’re looking for a tight, story-driven first-person shooter that will make you scream like a child.
