Aura Kingdom is a fantasy MMORPG published by Aeria Games on a free-to-play format. The closed beta was released in 2013 while the open beta was released in 2014. The game is very colorful and rather cute.

This game offers you the chance to become the hero that saves the universe of Aura Kingdom from the grips of evil as well as from the bandits who, after being expelled for years have now returned with even more power than ever. The game lets you choose one of 8 different classes and one of 7 different companions , or “Ediolons” who fight at your side. The game has something for all different tastes, leaving the player with a remarkable sense of choice.

Steel Hunters drops you into a war-torn futuristic battlefield where towering mechs and elite pilots engage in fast-paced tactical skirmishes. Combining elements of battle royales, MOBA, and third-person shooters, it challenges players to outwit, outgun, and outmaneuver each other in chaotic, yet strategic encounters.

Developed by Kingsoft and driven by Unreal Engine 4, the game stands out for its crisp visuals, highly customizable mechs, and the delicate balance between survival mechanics and deep progression systems. Players select from a roster of distinctive steel titans, each equipped with its own weapons, abilities, and playstyle, and then jump into large, open arenas riddled with environmental hazards, loot zones, and rival hunters.

The core gameplay revolves around PvEvP (Player vs Environment vs Player), where AI-controlled enemies and real opponents create a constant layer of danger. As you eliminate targets and complete objectives, you gain upgrades on the fly—enhancing your mech’s firepower, armor, and mobility.
Resource gathering, stealth ambushes, and tactical positioning are key components, offering a more methodical pace than your standard run-and-gun shooter.

The mix of tactical decision-making, mech customization, and intense firefights helps Steel Hunters to carve its niche in the increasingly crowded PvP market. It's not for everyone, but for those who enjoy Titanfall’s mechs with a hint of Escape from Tarkov’s tension, it just might be a hidden gem worth exploring.

➔ Main points:

• Unique action-based combat: pilot colossal mechs in dynamic PvEvP battles filled with strategy and surprise attacks.
• Deep mech customization: build and modify your steel warrior with different weapons, modules, and enhancements.
• Persistent progression system: level up your pilot and unlock new techs and skills for future fights.
• Resource-based survival mechanics: scavenge for loot while avoiding stronger enemies to stay alive.
• Massive open arenas: fight across large, destructible environments with verticality and hidden routes.
• Team or solo modes: choose to hunt alone or squad up for tactical dominance.

Crossout is an online shooter based around vehicular combat in a post-apocalyptic future. One might go as far as to say that it is mad… to the max. Or at least, one day it might be, but for the moment Crossout is a few interesting ideas bundled into a grindy open beta. So naturally, a lot of what the game is and offers is subject change over time. Until then, though, Crossout is all about grinding for weapons and car parts in order to build a better vehicle to allow you to continue grinding for even better weapons and car parts.

➔ Main points:

• Vehicular Combat
• High Customization
• Six Distinct Factions
• Dated Graphics, But Light on System Requirements

Let's be honest: In Goddess of Victory you come for those sweet, spicy shooting girls in anime style, but you end up staying for an unexpectedly good lore, storytelling and soundtrack.

The gameplay itself is pretty simple: you shoot at things in 2D, so don't expect a full-featured online shooter like Call of Duty. Fights can (and will) get messy and fun, that's for sure, but the game lacks the depth of a hardcore shooter.

This is where the surprise comes in, because you'll immediately recognize the quality of the soundtrack, the colourful artworks and the solid lore and storytelling, which will immediately create an enjoyable and convincing atmosphere

If you like anime and are looking for a causal, simple game that is not too addictive or time consuming, definitely give Nikke a chance

• Diverse android squad: command a team of unique combat androids.
• Gacha system: acquire new Nikkes and weapons through a gacha mechanic.
• Engaging storyline: explore character-driven narratives and missions.
• Stunning visuals: experience high-quality graphics and detailed environments.
• Regular updates: frequent new content and events to keep the game fresh.

The map, although filled with lizards, provides ample room for exploration, gearing up, and solving brain-teasing puzzles seamlessly integrated into the environment.

While the aesthetics might borrow heavily from popular trends, the game's quirks and charms overshadow any lack of distinct identity. Movement mechanics and gunplay may need refinement, but the overall experience hints at the potential for a gaming gem.

Released in 2004, Metin2 is a Korean free to play MMORPG that allows players to pick one of three kingdoms to represent as factions, and embark on slow progression journey to becoming a master combat fighter. The game's combo-based action combat is revolutionary for its time, making open world fighting a pleasure especially against waves of enemies.

When it comes to gameplay, the PVE content is mediocre as questing is largely uninteresting, but the game's focus lies largely within its exciting PVP modes.

The game does look very aged and dull in comparison to newer MMOs, but there is a certain nostalgic factor in addition to an emergence of private servers that has been keeping Metin2 relevant today. Overall, Metin2 is a pioneer of Asian-style MMORPGs and it's worth checking out for the combat and PVP, and since it's free, all you have to lose is just time.

➔ Main points:

• Join one of the three empires of the game
• Enjoy a hack’n’ slash-like gameplay based on combos
• Fight other players in PvP mode

FragPunk is a free-to-play, team-based FPS that splices hero abilities into a bomb-plant/defuse framework, then throws the rulebook in a blender with its signature Shard Cards
At the start of a match—and between rounds—teams draft modifiers that can bend reality in hilarious (and sometimes horrifying) ways: low gravity, headshots-only rules, or even quirks like boosting allies by shooting them with friendly bullets or crouching to “lay” healing eggs.
The result is a tactical shooter where positioning and economy still matter, but each round becomes a fresh puzzle you solve with your squad’s Lancers, loadouts, and card combos. It’s fast, it’s loud, and at its best, it captures that “one more round” energy better than many modern shooters.

Beneath the chaos lives a very readable shooter.
Weapons kick just enough to reward control, time-to-kill keeps fights spicy without being instantly over, and abilities are impactful without (usually) smothering gun skill.
The main mode, Shard Clash, is Counter-Strike-esque with a twist; if a match ends deadlocked, a sudden-death 1v1 Duel decides it—pure spectacle and a great “clip this” moment.

Maps lean colorful and legible over gritty realism, and the roster of Lancers covers scouts, controllers, duelists, and explosive experts, so you can fill a role even if your aim’s still waking up.

➔ Main points:

• Rule-bending Shard Cards: draft wild modifiers that alter gravity, healing, movement, or scoring in every round.
• Shard Clash core mode: classic plant/defuse bones with sudden-death 1v1 tiebreakers for pure drama.
• Distinct Lancer roles: controllers, scouts, duelists, and bomb specialists with punchy, readable abilities.
• Arcade-side palate cleansers: quick modes for warm-ups when you don’t want full tac-FPS stress.
• Seasonal injections of content: fresh Lancers, maps, and balance passes keep the meta from crusting over.
• Live-service grind and gacha: multiple currencies and loot pulls can feel exhausting.

War Robots is a free-to-play, cross-platform online multiplayer shooter that offers an engaging, fast-paced 6v6 PvP action.
The game's huge selection of customizable mech robots, map variety and game modes will offer hours of fun without burdening your wallets.

The gameplay starts on the slower side, but at higher-level matches, mechs will dictate the pace - upgrades to speed, flight and more can turn the tide of the battlefield.

Graphics are on the lower end but that's to be expected for a game that's on both PC and mobiles.
The cash store is unfortunately very influential, and mech robots that cost real money will grant players a huge leg up in battles.
Overall, War Robots is a good time if one is looking for some quick PvP shooter action in a world full of mechs.

➔ Main points:

• Engaging combat and gameplay
• Cross-platform matchmaking means quicker queues
• Tons of customization options to mix weapons and robots
• Free to play with optional cash shop
