Brutal and bleak, one of the best new FPS games of 2025 is here, and it costs $3

Between Half-Life, Fallout, the original XCOM, and Thief, often, when we think of games from the ‘90s, we remember these tightly designed, mechanics-led pioneers - the exemplary classics that proved what videogames could be. But there’s another side to old-school gaming, back when games were still underground, cheap, and crude. The first Doom, made by just four people, had an abject-art kind of edge. Likewise Carmagedoon, Rise of the Triad, and the first Grand Theft Auto. Inspired by that era, one of the nastiest, meanest new FPS games of 2025 has just landed on Steam, and it’s all yours for a mere $3.
