Splitgate
For anyone who’s tired of the usual military-themed shooters that seem to dominate the FPS genre, Splitgate is a nostalgic return to an age of sci-fi deathmatches in the same vein as Unreal Tournament, Halo, and Quake 3 Arena. Its real claim to fame, though, is its portal combat, as the run-and-gun gameplay is enhanced by a wrist-mounted gizmo that allows you to bend time and space by quickly ripping holes in the fabric of reality that you can travel and even shoot through.
Not just a useful tool for escaping from enemies, portals allow for some cunning moves to play out and once you adapt your tactics, you can quickly use them to outflank the opposition. Still in its infancy, Splitgate admittedly doesn’t have much content available for players, but when its core gameplay is this good, you’ll still have a solid time with it whenever you pop in for a few rounds.
