Defiance

Lots of grind

An online third-person shooter set on an alien-transformed post-apocalyptic Earth, tied to the Syfy TV series of the same name. You explore a large shared open world, collect loot and fight alongside other players in missions and events.

Unturned

Sandbox with your own goals

A free-to-play zombie survival sandbox with blocky low-poly visuals where you scavenge, craft and build bases across large maps, teaming up with or betraying other players. A huge modding and workshop scene keeps it endlessly replayable.

Once Human

Sandbox with your own goals

An open-world survival game set in a bizarre post-apocalyptic world where you gather resources, build bases and shoot mutated monsters, solo or with friends. It stands out for blending base building, loot-shooter style progression and surreal apocalyptic horror.

Tom Clancy's The Division

Lots of grind

A cover-based looter shooter set in a snowbound, pandemic-ravaged Manhattan, where you team up with friends to clear missions and chase ever-better gear. The PvPvE Dark Zone adds tension, since any other agent might turn rogue at any moment.

Far Cry New Dawn

Open world

A vividly colorful post-apocalyptic shooter set in a rebuilt Hope County, where you craft scrap weapons, upgrade your Prosperity base and battle the Highwaymen twins. Light RPG touches like enemy tiers and outpost expeditions put a twist on the familiar Far Cry formula.

Ark: Survival Ascended

Sandbox with your own goals

You are stranded on islands full of dinosaurs, taming and riding prehistoric beasts, building bases and surviving alone or with tribes of other players. The Unreal Engine 5 remake makes the huge sandbox world look far more impressive.

7 Days to Die

Sandbox with your own goals

A zombie survival sandbox built on crafting, looting, base building and skill progression, where every seventh night a massive horde tests your fortifications. Played solo or in co-op, it blends first-person shooting with tower-defense tension.

ARC Raiders

Resources and survival

A tense third-person extraction shooter where you scavenge a machine-ruled future Earth for loot. Every other Raider you meet might become an ally or a threat. A striking 70s-inspired retro sci-fi look gives the world a strong atmosphere.

Borderlands

Lots of grind

The cel-shaded looter shooter that started it all, sending you across the lawless wasteland of Pandora to collect a seemingly endless stream of procedurally generated guns. Its irreverent humor and four-player co-op make it a classic loot grind.
