I don't really have much experience or play shooters that often. Closest would be Doom Eternal or Marvel Rivals.

I played modern warfare way back in the day with a buddy and that was fun but I have never purchased any call of duty or battlefield game or any shooter really.

But lately I'm getting a real itch to play a fps game, or at least have one in my gaming rotation.

What I'm looking for in a shooter is the following:

- Military setting, fairly modern at least- no WWII or old settings.
- no crazy unrealistic movement like flying and triple jumping off walls, doesn't have to be perfectly realistic or a simulation, but I don't want insane wacky movement.
- still has a fairly active player base, doesn't need to be a new game
- has to be on PS5
- i would prefer games with vehicles but it's not a must if other conditions are met.

Given those criteria what would be the best choice ?

 

[MMaRsu]

Seems to me you want BF6

I havent played it tho

 

[Lionel Richie]

There ya go buddy.

 

[Spukc]

Fifa 98 on the snes

-edit- sorry i read it has to be on the ps5

 

[Miyazaki’s Slave]

What about War Thunder or World of Tanks...they are 3rd person or fps.

I know you are not looking for older settings but Hell Let Loose is a good time as well (but admittedly not a modern setting)

 

[TintoConCasera]

I've heard that game Marathon is quite popular!

 

[Sethbacca]

I've been having fun with BF6. Not gonna be for everyone tho

I've been playing Battlefield 6 BR on PS5 (Played the regular MP modes during the beta and they were super fun too) over the last 4 months. It's hella fun and stunning in it's audio/visual presentation.

 

[Guilty_AI]

Does it need to be multiplayer?

 

[The_hunter]

Space marine 2 on sale, the pvp doesn't have many maps but it's fun.

 

[Murada]

Modern Warfare II or III - the latter is better but the movement is faster. There are also vehicles and a wide variety of modes, including PvE.

 

[Fbh]

Battlefield 6 sounds like the closest to what you are looking for. Assuming you are looking for a multiplayer game (the campaign is short and isn't worth buying the game for)

 

[R6Rider]

BF6 fits your criteria.

 

[MrAlwaysRight]

you are looking for Battlefield 6.

 

[Putonahappyface]

Another vote for BF6.

I didn't even think of those world of tank/war games, hmm nice idea

Edit.

Ok, well I may have to give BF6 a shot as well.

I would like a multiplayer aspect ya , should have mentioned that.

 

[Forsete]

Haze bro.

 

[Roman Empire]

BF6 is the one you are looking for. It fits all the criteria above.

 

[HYDE]

You just described a genre I hate perfectly

 

[MagnetoWasRight]

There ya go buddy.

The top answer is Starfield. I don't think that worked out the way you expected.

 

[Killer8]

Battlefield 6 is basically the only answer.

 

[cormack12]

Helldivers is third person but you can toggle the aiming and shooting to FPS.
The Finals maybe?
MWIII is also good.
