Metro 2039 looks set to drag players back beneath Moscow for another beautifully grim survival adventure, blending tactile equipment management, brutal combat and astonishing visual detail with the claustrophobic atmosphere that made Metro so memorable.

Galactic Vault is a fast, frantic and surprisingly addictive FPS roguelite where speed and experimentation are the keys to survival. Its movement system makes every encounter feel energetic, while the excellent modular weapon mechanics turn each run into an opportunity to craft something wonderfully overpowered.

Zombie Arise is a raw, unapologetically old-school zombie shooter that captures the unforgiving spirit of 1990s FPS games while retaining some of their rougher edges. Scarce ammunition, dangerous runners and lengthy levels create genuine tension, but technical problems and a lack of checkpoints make this a difficult trip back to the past.

Metal Garden is a beautifully restrained FPS that trades sprawling campaigns and endless weapon collections for atmosphere, mystery and a haunting journey through a colossal Brutalist megastructure. Its short runtime may leave you wanting more, but perhaps that is exactly the point. Like the world it depicts, Metal Garden feels like a fragment of something much larger, and that sense of mystery is hard to shake.

Serious Sam: Shatterverse takes the franchise's legendary horde-shooting and fires it into the roguelite universe with explosive results. Its unpredictable runs, ridiculous arsenal and five-player co-op make for wonderfully chaotic firefights, while the multiverse premise gives Sam Stone plenty of room to cause trouble across reality itself.

Gallipoli: Second Expedition may not reinvent BlackMill Games' brutal WW1 shooter, but its carefully crafted uniforms, authentic equipment and expanded soldier customisation lend welcome personality and historical flavour to the Ottoman Front.

War games often talk about authenticity, yet few concepts are as difficult to handle in a conflict as brutal and historically loaded as the...

WW1 Game Series: Frontlines Collection brings four distinct theatres of the Great War together in a superb tactical package, delivering brutal firefights, authentic weaponry and atmospheric battlefields where teamwork and patience can mean the difference between a hard-fought victory and a muddy trip back to the respawn screen.

Gallipoli turns one of the First World War's most brutal campaigns into a tense, atmospheric multiplayer shooter in which every ridge, trench and beach can become a killing ground. With lethal gunplay, rewarding squad cooperation and beautifully recreated Ottoman Front battlefields, BlackMill Games once again proves that, in a war game, the most powerful weapon is sometimes simply the fear of taking the next step.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Cost of Hope expands the Zone with an engrossing new story, dangerous new territories, and the long-awaited opportunity to explore the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Its renewed faction conflict, unforgiving survival mechanics, and oppressive atmosphere make returning to the Zone genuinely exciting, while the new locations offer plenty of opportunities for danger and discovery.
