Although Predecessor plays better than past Paragon iterations, there's still plenty of work to be done until it feels like the premium experience it has the right to be. 3.3/5

Balanced, strategically deep and lighthearted. If you're looking for a hero shooter with a heavier tinge of MOBA and you don't mind dealing with some bugs, Paladins has got you covered. 3.7/5

A decade since its release, the deep experience PlanetSide 2 provides is yet to be properly replicated. This is likely a key reason why it remains an exciting combined arms MMOFPS. 3.3/5

Fast-paced, badass and robust - past the bumpy road of its Early Access days, Bloodhunt is now easily one of the better offerings in the Battle Royale genre. 3.7/5

Insurgency: Sandstorm is one great technical and creative feat. If it's a modern themed, objective oriented round-based FPS game you're looking for, then look no further. 4.5/5

From a technical standpoint, NARAKA is perhaps the best battle royale game released in 2021. Lots of fun and badassery guaranteed if you can stomach the odd design choices and rampancy of MTX. 3.7/5

An interesting and unique concept in the competitive multiplayer scene. Unfortunately, the seemingly inherent faults in its design might prevent it from reaching and retaining a wider audience. 3.4/5

TABG doesn't look or sound good and its gameplay feels off, but through its humour and approachability you can still find an experience that might suit you. However, chances are you won't. 2.7/5

Quirky and uncompromising. Perhaps an ok alternative if you're looking into 3rd person battle royales and don't mind tacky gameplay or playing against bots. Competitive players: stay away. 3.0/5

A distant relative of the battle royale genre, Hunt: Showdown is one of the most mature and objective approaches to session-based games. Truly, an experience with neither precedent nor equal. 4.4/5
