Game news The 7 best action / shooter games for PC in 2021
When it’s a large category, the Action / Shooter section often has lots of nuggets in it that allow these genres to break free and deliver extraordinary experiences. Here is a selection of games that fall into this very broad category and were released in 2021.
Deathloop is a new production from the fathers of Dishnored, Arkane. And as usual with the French, it’s a very original concept that was developed here. With its principle of the time warp that allows you to learn a little more about the architecture of the places or the position of the enemies every day, the title suggests you kill only 7 targets in one day. With this new information, you can opt for a discreet approach or, on the contrary, use your arsenal of weapons and powers for very nervous fights.
The sniper first person shooter industry is very unrivaled and CI Games is the industry giant. It must be said that the studio knows its subject perfectly and came back to us with Sniper Ghost Warrior Contract, which takes over the basics of previous episodes by adding in remote footage. You can therefore attack targets one kilometer away, which will require a lot of patience and skill to achieve your goals.

It must be recognized that this new iteration of Master Chief’s adventures was expected and appears to come from afar. With a rather complicated development that resulted in a year-long postponement that made fans a little suspicious, 343 Industries took the time to refine its FPS, which today adopts a more open formula while maintaining the fundamentals of the series. A very good opportunity for newbies and veterans alike to immerse themselves in this saga that is celebrating its 20th anniversary.
The new Far Cry Cuvée takes us to the fictional island of Yarta this year. Always set in an exotic setting, Far Cry 6 lets you embody a charismatic character against an antagonist who is no less, at the heart of a revolution that is rumbling. Very cute and always fun to learn, Far Cry 6 is also very cute and benefits from a co-op mode that allows you to do the entire campaign in pairs.
If you are looking for an ultra-brutal, visceral and frenzied FPS, you have undoubtedly got the latest Dooms installed on your computer. Doom Eternal was a real hit and welcomed a new round of additional content this year with Tthe Ancient Gods. Suffice it to say that the formula did not disappoint. Though a bit short, the DLC is still just as beautiful, still so angry, and benefiting from fairly quality bestiary additions. Enough to add to an already exciting original experience.
The Persona saga has millions of fans around the world. So once an episode takes advantage of this very popular name, expectations are high. Persona 5 Striker gives up its RPG dimension to decide to move and remains a pure and tough Persona who knows how to be funny and moving at the same time and offers a fight that is as intense as it is deep. If you can ignore the slightly outdated graphics, then you should easily appreciate the foray into this atypical universe.
Difficult to explain, Lemnis Gate can be fully discovered and appreciated if you take the effort to try it out. Based on a system of very well implemented time loops and a turn-based mode that favors tactical decisions, Lemnis Gate offers a very original proposal and a really successful concept. A small UFO in the shooter world that is worth trying out and that is also available in the Game Pass.
