Shooter Games (FPS and TPS)

FPS and TPS games for PC and consoles

Shooter games put weapons, aim and movement at the center of play, and this category brings FPS and TPS titles together in one list. Some are built around long solo campaigns, others live on ranked matches and squad play, so the genre covers very different kinds of evenings.

FPS or TPS: which view fits your playstyle

The camera is the first thing that splits the genre. First person puts you behind the sights, third person pulls the view back so you see your character and more of the space around you.

  • FPS gives a narrow field of view and precise aim, which is why most competitive shooters use it
  • TPS shows cover, corners and enemies at your sides, so it suits action and story games
  • Third person works well with a controller, first person rewards mouse aim
  • Some titles let you switch the camera between the two views

Shooter subgenres in this category

The shooter label covers a wide range of pacing and rules. The subgenre tells you more about how a game actually plays than the trailer does.

  • Tactical shooters: slow rounds, one life at a time, aim and communication decide fights
  • Battle royale: large map, shrinking zone, the last squad standing wins
  • Extraction shooters: you loot, fight players and enemies controlled by the game, then reach an exit or lose your gear
  • Hero shooters: fixed characters with their own abilities and team roles
  • Looter and survival shooters: gear progression, crafting and long sessions
  • Story campaigns: scripted missions you play alone, often in third person

Solo, co-op or competitive play

The next question is who you play with, because it changes how long a shooter stays interesting to you.

  • Campaigns end after the story, usually between 8 and 20 hours
  • Co-op shooters need teammates but keep the pressure lower than ranked play
  • PvP titles run for years on seasons and updates, and reward regular practice

How to pick your next shooter

Match the game to the time and the skill you want to put in. A tactical PvP title asks for practice, while a campaign or co-op shooter fits shorter sessions.

  • Older shooters can still have full lobbies, so check whether the community stayed active
  • Deluxe editions add seasons, weapons or cosmetic packs on top of the base game
  • Region availability depends on the product and is shown on the product page
