Strategy games and first-person shooters – these are the genres that have defined the PC from its inception to today. Doom was a groundbreaking moment. Half-Life remains one of the defining PC games of the 90s. But now you can get some of the best modern classics and some golden almost-oldies at a really big discount. Maybe you haven’t played the incredible Robocop Rogue City or Trepange2Maybe you’ve avoided Far Cry 6 or never ventured into the overwhelming world of Deathloop, but thanks to a new Humble deal, now’s the time if you want to try out some of the best FPS games of all time on the cheap.
Let’s start with Trepang2. Developed by the eponymous Trepang Studio, it’s an FPS game built entirely on spectacle. The spiritual successor to Monolith’s FEAR (more on that later), it features some of the most gorgeous and gory blood and body effects in shooter history. Think the guns in Battlefield are loud? Turn up the volume on Trepang2 and your windows might blow out. But it’s not just about show – Trepang2 is a dark, disturbing story about feuding corporations and the horrific effects of violence.
Similarly, the criminally underrated Robocop Rogue City deserves a lot more attention. Of the 9,000+ player reviews it’s received on Steam, 90% are positive – it was never one of the biggest, most popular shooters of 2023, but basically everyone who plays it seems to love Rogue City. Personally, I like how it subverts the typical FPS dynamic. It’s not about strategy, cover, or tactics. You are Robocop. You’re a walking, thinking tank. Especially when you find the M60, it becomes a shooter where you’re the apex predator – you’re the biggest threat.
At the other end of the spectrum, Arkane’s Deathloop requires absolute precision and detailed planning. Your goal is to assassinate eight key targets in a single day. If you fail, time starts over and you must try again. Observe their behavior, learn their weaknesses, and build a flawless run piece by piece. It’s like the biggest, bloodiest puzzle game ever made.
All of these games are available at a steep discount on Humble. You can also grab the entire FEAR collection which includes FEAR, FEAR 2, FEAR 3 and all DLC, the Stalker pack which is perfect if you’re already looking forward to the release date of Stalker 2, and Far Cry 6 which was criticized even by fans of the series at launch but is definitely worth a try at such a reduced price.
