The Division 2
What makes the game special? The Division 2 is not a space adventure like Destiny, but a cover-based shooter in third-person with a focus on realistic graphics.
Combined with flexibly selectable skills and many different weapons, this creates a tactical gameplay that other loot shooters do not offer.
The Division 2, however, struggles in the endgame. The campaign, however, offers several dozen hours of engagement on its own.
Here is a trailer for Season 10:
Who should take a closer look at the game? The Division 2 offers a setting that is surprisingly rare for loot shooters. Instead of playing on distant planets in the far future, The Division 2 takes place in America, with modern weapons and only slightly futuristic technology.
This military setting also results in tactical gameplay, where strong cover and the right position play a big role.
However, that does not make the game too slow. With clever flanking maneuvers and precise grenades, the AI puts you under good pressure. This makes every gunfight in the streets of Washington D.C. (and thanks to the “Warlords of New York” expansion also Manhattan) intense and exciting.
Gunfire Reborn
What makes the game special? Gunfire Reborn is a loot shooter with roguelite elements. In charming comic-style, you choose one of 6 cute animal heroes, each with their own strengths and build options.
As is typical for roguelites, you start in Gunfire Reborn from scratch each gaming session. With randomly selected level layouts, weapons, skill options, and enemies, you fight your way to the final boss – if you succeed or if you die, it starts over again.
The gameplay trailer shows how Gunfire Reborn skillfully combines colorful graphics with hardcore action:
Who should take a closer look at the game? The cute heroes in Gunfire Reborn hide a bit how demanding the game can be. Since it is a roguelite, the levels and your equipment are mostly randomly generated.
Every gaming session is therefore different from the others. This can be very hard at the beginning, but the permanent upgrades as well as your own practice make the experience easier and better over time.
The gameplay pace in Gunfire Reborn is generally a bit more relaxed than in other loot shooters, but it is therefore not an easy game. The high addictive factor and the permanent upgrades that you can buy invite many gaming sessions.
Additionally, the game can also be played in co-op mode with up to 4 players.
