Old and out of the loop gamer here - used to love FPS games but quit playing them when Counterstrike was new.

What's uh... what's going on? I keep seeing trailers for new FPS games that look like they're running the original Doom or Rise of the Triad engines. Somebody help me understand.

There's been a resurgence of retro throwback shooters. The first one I noticed was with STRAFE, which released (to a rocky start) back in 2017. It's a brilliant game now, mind you.

You may also want to check out:

  • DUSK
  • Turbo Overkill
  • GTTOD
  • SPRAWL
  • Prodeus
  • Ion Fury
  • Selaco
  • Ultrakill

I'm sure I'm missing some great ones from this list.

HROT Zortch

These two are excellent games worthy of being on this list.
