VGChartz’s Lee Mehr: “Ah, yes… the shooter. While many will besmirch the genre for being just about shooting guns, I say that’s an unfair judgement. There’s also the potential for stabbing, exploding, incinerating, impaling, and so much more! Jokes aside, 2023 was an… interesting year for quality, in that it felt like a coin toss whether a big-budget shooter would actually be worth anyone’s time. Below are the final contenders for the year, ranging from modern-military shooters to a new IP that didn’t seem like it’d ever release. Interesting, indeed.”
