Helldivers 2 has changed the defining standard for co-op shooter games. It soon became PlayStation’s fastest selling title of all time, surpassing God of War: Ragnarok. It really came as a surprise since the game was plagued by technical issues in the first two weeks after release.
Helldivers 2 is a community game. Its Major Orders are designed in such a way that it instills a sense of belonging. A Helldiver always feels that their duty is of the utmost importance and truly so. Every victory is due to the combined efforts of Helldivers.

1Helldivers
There’s no game more similar to Helldivers 2 than its predecessor. The hardcore co-op launched the elite unit of protectors called “Helldivers” who have only one objective– defend Super Earth.
Helldivers is the perfect community driven game. With a new game mode (Proving Grounds) and multiple expansions, you will be anything but bored traversing the universe, obliterating anyone who poses a threat to your planet.
2Warhammer 40,000: Darktide
Warhammer 40,000: Darktide has all the elements of a war game– vigorous action, ferocious battles, and more. It is designed to give off a rustic, gory, and crude feel. You will find yourself standing in front of the enemy, with nothing to lose.
3Risk of Rain 2
Risk of Rain 2 is a fun, indie game following the crew of UES: Safe Travels. The members try to fight it out in the rough, making the best of situations while navigating through the planet. The environments remind you of a fever dream but it only adds to the aura of the game.
4Warhammer: Vermintide 2
Set in the apocalyptic End Times, Vermintide 2 is a hell-like battleground. There’s bullets flying, blood splattered across surfaces, everyone’s coming for your life and the only goal is to be victorious. How do you make it out alive? Spare no one!
5EARTH DEFENSE FORCE 5
The fifth installment in the series, EARTH DEFENSE FORCE 5 was exclusively released for PlayStation 4. Its single player campaign has 110 missions including a few with story elements. If you’re up for killing space aliens, you might want to give this a try.
6Warframe
Warframe is a free-to-play online multiplayer RPG developed and published by Digital Extremes. You will play as a member of the ancient warrior race Tenno who were resting in a deep slumber. Suddenly thrown into battle against the Origin System, you must fight for your existence and uncover the entire story.
Warframe is a must play for anyone who likes an engaging lore in an open-world setting. The fast-paced action is just the cherry on top!
7World War Z
Set in seven different locations, players must kill hordes and hordes of zombies. Surprisingly, up to 1,000 zombies can appear on your screen at once. Each location has individual levels. Players can choose from eight classes. If you can’t tell by now, this is not your average zombie game.
8Remnant II
Sequel to Remnant: From the Ashes, survivors will be pitted against god-like creatures in a crumbling reality. It seems like an unfair match but you must do so to save the world from an unknown evil.
Remnant II was deemed “generally favorable” by critics. It received a staggering Metacritic score of 81.
9Aliens: Fireteam Elite
Developed by Cold Iron Studio, in collaboration with Disney’s 20th Century Games, Aliens: Fireteam Elite is a co-op survival game set in the Alien Universe. The best thing about the game is probably the Xenomorphs. Defeating the extraterrestrial species is not as easy as you think.
10Starship Trooper: Extermination
Starship Trooper: Extermination is the depiction of the ultimate clash between the United Citizen Federation and the Arachnid Empire. Starship Trooper: Extermination is currently in Early Access. However, you can still try out the new weaponry, class leveling system, and of course, face off the Bugs!
