Overview
Description

Apex Legends is a free-to-play battle royale built around squads of “Legends” with unique abilities, praised for its fast, fluid movement, gunplay, and ping communication system.

Serious Sam II returns to the series' signature fast-paced, wave-based shooting action, delivering chaotic battles across diverse sci‑fi environments. With both single‑player and robust multiplayer modes, players can tear through hordes of enemies alone or with friends in co‑op and split‑screen play. The game builds on its predecessor with larger maps, more varied enemy types, and a playful sense of humor that blends intense combat with tongue‑in‑cheek moments, making it a standout title for fans of classic arena shooters.

So much fun

Apex Legends has been my go-to lately. Strong hero design. One gripe: steep aim skill ceiling. Would recommend.
