This mobile shooter is focused on a free-to-play strategy: players must find loot and fight monsters in the open world. You must survive and be the last to win in the Battle Royale mode. In the Arena Breakout mode, collect as much loot as possible in the escape areas.
This game will especially appeal to fans of Escape from Tarkov. Battlestate Games has decided to react to the gameplay trailer of looter shooter Arena Breakout Infinite (analog of a mobile game for PC), accusing its developers of plagiarizing it. Players found it strange that the authors of Escape From Tarkov criticize the project, which is entirely free and offers many more features.

Release Date: May 18, 2017
Game Score (Metacritic): tbd
Guns of Boom is a casual multiplayer first-person PvP shooter with cartoonish graphics inspired by Team Fortress 2.
Guns of Boom is one of those games that throws you into action. If you’ve ever played Counter-Strike, you’ll immediately get used to Guns of Boom. The entry threshold is shallow, and the games are very similar.
Two teams of 4-5 players each shoot each other for 5 minutes or until you reach 500 points. The server determines which of the ten maps you will play on and matches players by level. The maps are small but well-designed and balanced.

Platforms: iOS, Android
Release Date: September 28, 2021
Game Score (Metacritic): tbd
It is an action game in which players fight in a “battle royal” mode, competing for the right to become the last survivor.
Free Fire MAX enriched the original version of Free Fire with more realistic maps, more immersive gameplay, and Firelink technology that allows you to play with all Free Fire users regardless of the app version.
Its visuals and fast-paced action characterize the game. Considering the genre, there is no solid plot here.
Garena Free Fire MAX has many multiplayer modes, including the traditional Battle Royale format and Clash Squad mode. Character customization and unique abilities are also available.
Abilities range from simple ones like quick reloads to full-fledged combat abilities like temporary speed or health boosts.
Here, you can build your map for the game or choose one already created by someone else, but you can make your island for the game only after level 8.
