About these games

Insurgency

Insurgency is a multiplayer and cooperative shooter built on the Source engine, where a squad survives by seizing key strongholds and destroying enemy supplies. A follow-up to the award-winning Source mod, it balances one-life tension with longer firefights. It offers over 40 weapons with attachments, no crosshair, free aim and suppression effects, 16 maps in day and night versions, seven multiplayer modes for up to 32 players and five co-op modes. Squad members play customizable roles that differ by team and upgrade their gear with supply, which affects weight, stamina and movement speed.

Zero Hour

Zero Hour is a tactical first-person shooter built around online team play. It takes place in fictional locations across Bangladesh, with real-life scale and resource management at its core. Players carry out hostage rescue and bomb defusal missions, either with up to ten people or solo alongside as many as nine AI squad mates. In five-versus-five matches they choose loadouts carefully, since the limited guns and gadgets are lost on death, and the pace stays slow and methodical, with a planning table used to sketch out each operation first.

Ground Branch

GROUND BRANCH is a tactical shooter seen from a true first-person view, created by one of the developers behind the original Rainbow Six and Ghost Recon. You play as the elite paramilitary arm of the CIA’s Special Activities Center/Special Operations Group (SAC/SOG), leading other special operations forces through deniable missions worldwide. Play is deliberate and unforgiving, with deep character and weapon customization where loadout choices have real consequences, such as encumbrance affecting speed. Co-op and 8v8 adversarial modes rely on teamwork and integrated voice communication.

Six Days in Fallujah

Six Days in Fallujah is an intensely realistic first-person tactical shooter built on true stories from one of the toughest urban battles of this century. You can play solo with an AI fireteam, mix AI with human teammates, or join all-human online co-op. The AI squad covers you on its own using authentic military tactics, but in tricky moments it needs your leadership – ordering suppressive fire, breaching fortifications, holding positions or securing targets. Enemies stalk, flank, set ambushes and lure you into traps, tunnels included, and with no front line you can strike from any direction, rooftops and windows included.

Arma Reforger

Arma Reforger is a military simulation set during the Cold War, focused on realistic weapons, combat mechanics and expansive terrains. Players can battle other players or AI in the Conflict, Combat Ops and Capture & Hold modes, or build their own missions in Game Master. For solo play there is the Operation Omega campaign with five replayable missions, plus the Elimination and Air Support scenarios, while community mods can be downloaded directly in the game from the Workshop.

Rogue Point

Rogue Point is a four-player co-op shooter from the creators of Black Mesa where teamwork is everything. When the richest CEO on Earth dies, rival conglomerates carve up his empire and order private mercenary armies through the MERX app; only the elite vigilante squad Rogue Point fights back. Players gather intel, complete objectives in dynamic missions, earn skills and upgrade weapons to face the 5 Star Mercenaries. Missions unfold across five locations (The Airport, The Mall, The Office, The Oilrig, The Clinic), reshaped each time by the Parametric Design System.
