Overview
Description

Counter-Strike 2 is the free-to-play successor to CS:GO, a tactical 5v5 shooter defined by precise gunplay, economy management, and deep competitive play built on the new Source 2 engine.

Developed by Insomniac Games, Fuse is a cooperative action shooter set in a near-future world threatened by a shadowy organization. Players control Overstrike 9, a squad of agents wielding experimental alien energy known as fuse, combining their unique talents and lethal teamwork to obliterate enemy strongholds. Blending cooperative gameplay with exotic weaponry and the studio's signature humor, the title offers both single-player and four-player co-op experiences. As the agency's outcasts, the team must rely on their distinct abilities and disregard for protocol to stop a global catastrophe.

So much fun

Counter-Strike 2 has been my go-to lately. Pure skill-based gunplay. One gripe: steep learning curve. Would recommend.
