Escape From Tarkov is a tactical FPS with some pretty realistic elements. For instance, no HUD, no energy, no tutorial, NO MERCY. Fall hard and you can break your leg, and you will limp for the rest of the match. With several maps ranging in size you want to find exclusive loot to sell and/or trade for currency or other items. This game is brutal with hardcore realism while remaining fun enough to keep you coming back for more. Truly an immersive customizable experience.

All. Kitchen. Warfare. Three words you would never expect together in the same sentence. Until now.

Just kidding. You get your loot from a fridge.

5.Realm Royale
Realm Royale - Gameplay
A fantasy based battle royale game that switches things up by eliminating the start with nothing part at the start of the game. Instead you pick from 5 classes and each has different weapons and abilities that you will find, even though everybody pretty much picks the Warrior class.
- Classes from Warrior, Engineer, Mage , Hunter, and Assassin
- Incentivized loot system.
- When you die, you turn into a chicken. Survive for 30 seconds and respawn! No need to depend on other team members.
Once you have done one base jump you have done them all!
Visually, realm is very reminiscent of Fortnite. Loot Tiers are ranked in the familiar colors to indicate rarity.
4.PUBG
PUBG - Gameplay
PUBG was king of the castle before Fortnite came along. This was actually my first battle royale game I ever played. While at the time somewhat buggy, I couldn’t help but fall addict to the unpredictability and thrill of overcoming unfavorable odds. Again all battle elements are here as well along with vehicles for quick travel.
- Variables forces every game to be different from the last.

Stay on your guard as this beautiful scenery could quickly change to your burial ground.

CoD Blackout - Gameplay
It was only a matter of time before COD tried their hand at their own battle royale mode that was included in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. Here you will find the COD signature combat feel. This is a must play for any fan of First Person Shooters and Battle Royale. Was surprised how seamlessly switch from third person to first person. Blackout is a perfect fusion of the best of two genres and a damn good time.
- Biggest Map in Call of Duty history.
- Familiar FPS controls if you have played COD before, so this is a good pick for hardcore FPS fans looking to jump in to a battle royale game and not start learning from scratch.

Snipers don’t usually far well in Battle Royale’s. Thanks to CODs familiar gun controls, its no longer the case.

- Cool Tablet map feature that a nice little touch.
- Free to Play!
- Tactical wit needed as ammo is very limited.

1.Star Wars Battlefront 2
Star Wars Battlefront 2 - Gameplay
Let me be honest. If you are a fan of the Star Wars franchise you owe it to yourself to at least see what this game has to offer. At the very least you get to immerse yourself into the Star Wars Universe in an action shooter to experience it firsthand. If even for a moment. Team coordination is needed and if you are not playing with like minded players could really be a deal breaker.
- A Star Wars game! I mean....c'mon something is better than nothing...right? *Sigh*
- Star Wars Battlefront II features nine multiplayer game modes.
- Supporting up to 40 simultaneous players.
- Campaign mode. Buuuuuuuuuuut, keep your expectations in check.
Star Wars has never looked so good.
You get your hands on some pretty cool guns in Battlefront 2. I honestly prefer a lightsaber
