The shooter genre of games has become one of the most popular genres in recent years. Twenty-twenty-three will see the genre pushing the boundaries even further with the introduction of several new titles that expand on existing concepts. These titles promise an even more immersive experience for players, with the ability to explore new worlds and take part in exhilarating battles.
First up is Destiny 2: Beyond Light, which is set to release in fall of 2023. It promises to take the popular Destiny franchise in new directions, introducing more characters, weapons, and locations. Players will also have access to new abilities, such as the new Darkness powers, that will make this title stand out from its predecessors. The game will also feature an increased focus on the role of guardians and their ability to shape their own destiny.
Next, Borderlands 3 plans to take the looter-shooter genre to its furthest extremes. A massive open-world setting is promised along with an even deeper progression system than before. Every action, every choice the player makes will shape the game and its world. The title will also feature vastly improved graphics and the ability to switch between characters on the fly. Fans of the series should have plenty to look forward to with this one.
If you’re looking for something a little more unique, then Death Stranding Remastered may be just what you’re looking for. Already available on PS4, the 2023 remake for PC will bring some noteworthy improvements, such as improved GPU and physics support, improved AI and physics, increased loading times, and more. Plus, the surreal, yet beautiful landscapes of Death Stranding provide the perfect backdrop for an exploration adventure.
And to close off the list of shooter games being released in 2023 is Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. This title promises to be a direct sequel to the previous Black Ops games, taking place in the late Cold War of the 1980s. It will feature an immersive single-player story alongside the established multiplayer battles. It will also include the fan-favorite Zombies mode, which will take the undead apocalypse to the next level. Every aspect of this game has been designed to be an unforgettable experience.
2023 is certainly shaping up to be an exciting year for shooter games. From Destiny 2: Beyond Light to Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, there is no shortage of titles that will push the boundaries of gaming, immersing players in completely new worlds and experiences.
