Singularly unforgiving, dizzyingly complex, and like no other FPS out there: the extraction shooter's extraction shooter. Every time I make a kill in Escape from Tarkov, it's over in a flash.

Escape From Tarkov has changed significantly on its road to release, but there's little doubt over this being the best that Tarkov has always been. The story mode adds depth and meaning to the game in ways that were sorely missing before, making its standout environment and gameplay actually matter. It may not be the prettiest or the most approachable game, but Escape From Tarkov looks set to remain the premier post-apocalyptic first-person shooter in the market for the foreseeable future.

The prototypical extraction shooter, Escape from Tarkov is a shooter I've been playing for the past decade and will be playing for years more. Sublime firefights and just-complicated-enough mechanics make this a great game to lose yourself in, but the immersion only lasts until you need to check the Wiki, which is constantly when you're just starting out. Pros - + Phenomenal firefights - + Detailed economy - + Great map design Cons - - Confusing quest system - - Late game gear skews balance too far towards experienced players - - Obtuse design Why you can trust GamesRadar+ Escape from Tarkov set the standard for extraction shooters.
