Overview
Description

Set in a distant sci‑fi fantasy future, Battleborn pits players against the relentless Varlesi threat as they rally under the last star, Solus. Choose from a diverse roster of heroes across five factions, each with unique abilities and playstyles, and embark on an intense co‑operative campaign or clash in competitive multiplayer matches. The game supports split‑screen co‑op across all modes, letting friends team up on the same console. With a blend of shooter mechanics, RPG progression, and strategic elements, Battleborn delivers fast‑paced action for both solo and team‑focused gamers.

Destiny is an action-packed first-person shooter that incorporates massively multiplayer online elements into a shared-world experience. Set in the distant future after an event known as the Collapse, players take on the role of Guardians revived by a Ghost to defend humanity against the forces of The Darkness across various locations throughout the Solar System. The game features on-the-fly matchmaking for cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes, driven by an innovative engine that supports global illumination and real-time dynamic lighting. Players explore ruined locations like the Cosmodrome in Old Russia, upgrade their gear, and embark on epic campaigns either solo or alongside fellow Guardians.
