'Overwatch' From Overhead: 'Machines Arena' Is a Shooter That Doesn't Miss

Hero shooters like Overwatch, Valorant, and Apex Legends have dominated the broader shooter genre for years. The format—with an array of distinctive, differently-abled characters to choose from and specialize in—is so tried and tested that any game entering the sub-genre risks being labeled as a copycat… or worse, stale.

Battle Royale Shooter 'Grit' Plays Like a Wild West PUBG—With NFTs

Battle royale fans rejoice—a Web3 Wild West shooter is coming. The tale of Grit’s development is somewhat long and storied, which for better or worse is common in the multi-year trenches of video game development. After previously being set to launch on PC gaming marketplace Steam for $20, Web3 publisher Gala Games picked it up with plans to expand development and make it free-to-play with optional NFTs.  Before Gala, Grit’s original announcement trailer got mixed feedback.

Dr. Disrespect’s Dynamic NFT Shooter 'Deadrop' Is Off to a Promising Start

Game studio Midnight Society was the product of gaming personality Dr. Disrespect's frustrations with the current state of shooters. The larger-than-life content creator (a.k.a. Guy Beahm) co-founded the team with veterans from franchises like Call of Duty and Halo, all with the goal of creating a competitive shooter that could rival Call of Duty Warzone and Apex Legends. Given that pedigree, it’s no surprise that Deadrop quickly became one of the most anticipated Web3 games ahead, as the PC-bas
