You know that feeling when in a couple of frames you can tell yourself – I want this.
If yes, then my efforts were not in vain.
Hello everyone, and although it’s a little late, I would like to show you all the games that were at E3 2021. And in this part we will talk about 1st person action games.
Next part
Having never worked in video editing before, much less having written a single post, I wanted to present games in a concise, juicy, comedic format for those people who don’t know what to play.
The list may include games that have already been released quite a long time ago, but were at events related to E3. I didn’t remove them, because, judging by the reviews on Steam, few people know about them, and most of them have positive ratings.
Battlefield 2042
Release date: October 22, 2021
Platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC (Microsoft Windows), Xbox Series
Who doesn’t know the Battlefield series?? In this part they want to surprise us with the number of players on the map, which has increased to 128, the customization of maps, which allows you to easily create your own mode, and the main feature of this part is the tornado, which, according to testers, many are already tired of.
Splitgate – Console Release
Release date: July 27, 2021
Platforms: PC via Steam, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S
Release of a free multiplayer first-person shooter on consoles, the main feature of which is portals.
Lemnis Gate
Release date: September 28, 2021
Platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, Xbox Series
Judging by the video, it’s a regular F2P shooter, but it’s not. Playing simultaneously as five heroes, for five rounds of 25 seconds, we need to deal with the enemy team, playing in turn for each, then returning to the beginning of the loop.
The Outer Worlds 2
Release date: TBD
Platforms: PC (Microsoft Windows), Xbox Series
A continuation of the game of the same name, the action of which will unfold in completely different locations, with a new team.
Halo Infinite
Release date: 2021
Platforms: Xbox One, PC (Microsoft Windows), Xbox Series
The next adventures of the Master Chief, and judging by the leaked data, already with the royal battle.
Haunted Space
Release date: 2021
Platforms: PlayStation 5, PC (Microsoft Windows), Xbox Series
Space flight sim with the ability to explore the world, build and customize a ship, as well as trade and boss battles.
Project Ferocious

Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters
Release date: 2022
Platforms: PC (Microsoft Windows)
A turn-based tactical role-playing game, where we will play the role of Gray Knights, fighting, oddly enough, with the forces of chaos.
Far Cry 6
Release date: October 7, 2021
Platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, Google Stadia, Xbox Series
Good old, new headlight edge, with cleaning of towers. More customization, more vehicles, more weapons. So soon we won’t be able to tell the difference between Fallout and Just Cause.
Far Cry 6: Season Pass
Release date: TBD
Platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, Google Stadia, Xbox Series
I won’t give away a secret if I say that the villains in the Far Cry series were mediocre. They practically did not open up and humbly waited while we took away power from them. And this DLC, I really hope, aims to fix that.
Phantom Abyss
Release date: June 22, 2021
Platforms: PC (Microsoft Windows)
Asynchronous multiplayer running errands where you need to get to the finish line before everyone else in procedurally generated locations.
Contraband
Release date: TBD

“A cooperative paradise for smugglers” – alas, that’s all that is known.

A reason to play if you liked L4D. And, by the way, Intel is just handing out the keys.

New weapons, new Moon location, new cosmetics.

This is no longer just DLC for Borderland, but a full-fledged game in the fantasy worlds of Little Tina.
Dying Light 2
Release date: December 7, 2021
Platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, Xbox Series
Dying Light has always been for me the standard Witcher in the world of zombies. They supported the game for so long, they made DLC, which is not a shame. And here is the second part, which I’m madly waiting for.
Severed Steel
Release date: September 2021
Platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC (Microsoft Windows)
Destructible voxel locations, a bunch of different tricks, time dilation, and we have to do all this with a one-armed heroine.
Instinct

Deathloop
Release date: September 14, 2021
Platforms: PlayStation 5, PC (Microsoft Windows)
The goal of the game is to hunt down 8 targets and escape the time loop while another player (or the computer) is hunting you. And god, I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re in the same universe as Dishonored.
Overwatch 2
Release date: TBD
Platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC (Microsoft Windows), Nintendo Switch
Skins are good, of course, but you can’t wear them all at once, and Jeff Kaplan, who boasted about the PVE mode, left the studio altogether. What we will get as a result is still not clear.
Atomic Heart
Release date: 2021
Platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, Xbox Series
Still not given a release date and now plagued by lawsuits, this first-person shooter offers us an alternative future where the USSR is still alive, and robots have rebelled against their masters.
Escape From Tarkov – Streets of Tarkov
Release date: 2021 – 2022
Platforms: PC (Microsoft Windows)
New large-scale location with a city. The ability to run around apartments is included.

Platforms: Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, Google Stadia, Xbox Series
Growing out of the R6 event, and now a full-fledged game, it offers us a cooperative, strangely, for 3 people, in which we will encounter alien creatures of various stripes. And by the way, very similar to G.T.F.O.
Starfield
Release date: November 11, 2022
Platforms: PC (Microsoft Windows), Xbox Series
An open world RPG set in space. Alas, that’s all we know.
Chivalry 2
Release date: June 8, 2021

Platforms: PC (Microsoft Windows), Xbox Series
Let me remain silent, you already know more about her than I do.
Some release dates may be out of date, please forgive me for that. This is my first job of this kind, and now I know what I signed up for. Information about release dates and platforms was taken from the website.
First of all, I wanted to make a selection of those games that were at E3. I didn’t set out to write a review of every game, but just wanted to briefly show the gameplay and essence of each of them. Please take the text for the games not as a review, but only as my brief assessment of what I saw myself.
