October has the year's strongest lineup of new FPS games, with picks spanning a wide range of subgenres. Obviously, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 sucks most of the oxygen out of the room, but you don't have to pick up Activision's game to get your fill of first-person shooting. Throughout October, we will get our hands on horror shooters, boomer shooters, RPG shooters, and whatever Paperhead is meant to be.
As someone who considers FPS his favorite genre, October provides an abundance of riches (and bullets) that almost reaches the point of exhaustion. We cannot play every shooter, at least not right away, so it is important to know what's coming and prioritize what best fits our interests. Let's go through thestandout FPS games 100% confirmed for October.
For the most part, I'll highlight who each FPS game is for.
By finally abandoning last-gen, Infinity Ward might put together a new Call of Duty game that truly represents a jump in quality, even if only inpresentation. To be honest, you already know whether you will pick Modern Warfare 4, and nothing Isay will change anybody's mind. Still, a few things are worth keeping in mind.
Modern Warfare 4 caters to modern high-end rigs far more than previous entries, while still maintaining the high level of PC optimization synonymous with Call of Duty. While the multiplayer has modes that embrace chaos, MW4's new Collateral pushes tactics to the forefront, stripping away custom loadouts, automatic health regen, and respawns in favor of a cash-economy system.
COD has a habit of treating single-player as an afterthought, but MW4 will return to old-school ways, offering a strict solo campaign without tacking on co-op.
Finally, we are getting another FPS game with Clive Barker's name attached, and Hellraiser: Revival has the potential to comfortably outdo the Undying and especially Jericho. Right out of the gate, I need to make it clear that this October release is primarily for body horror fans, even more so than FPS lovers. Don't get me wrong, you get to wield devastating weapons, and you aren't a hapless sap who spends the campaign hiding in a cupboard, but gunplay is a treat and not constantly the main course.
Hellraiser: Revival is tailored for players who love deliberate resource management over spraying bullets, and who don't mind the occasional (or frequent) stealth section. Melee weapons are a big part of the equation, although they break after a couple of uses and cannot be relied upon endlessly. Firearms are deadly, but you have to contend with limited ammo and crafting.
