A first-person shooter featuring sandbox elements, set in a post-apocalyptic world. Rage is the first new IP created by id Software since 1996. The action takes place on Earth, though the planet was devastated by an asteroid. The protagonist has to face the new, brutal reality. Making allies among other survivors, they stand up to the military regime in order to fight for their future. The player completes subsequent story missions (rather simplistic) given by one of the parties involved in the conflict. Although the missions themselves follow the patterns established by classic first-person shooters, the protagonist is capable of using various vehicles and parts of equipment. The latter can be crafted by the protagonist, once the player has obtained adequate schematics. The single-player campaign is complemented by two multiplayer modes. The players can take part in classic deathmatches, in which vehicles can be used; they can also participate in scenarios created exclusively for the co-op mode.

A rail shooter developed by Tabasco Interactive, a Polish dev studio. The player assumes the role of John, a pilot of the Federation woken from a thousand-year cryogenic sleep initiated by an artificial intelligence called Ellie during a great war against the Rebels. His task is not only to discover how the conflict ended but also to defend humanity from a new threat. At the core of Star Horizon are grand-scale space battles in which we participate sitting at the helm of a fighter. Our task is to aim at hostiles and make evasive maneuvers to avoid collision with enemy projectiles and elements of the environment. We can also replace ship parts and mount more powerful armaments. The course of the campaign is shaped by our decisions to a large extent – the game puts great emphasis on story and developing friendship between John and Ellie, while we can side with either the Federation or the Rebels.

Choosing one of the arcade modes leaves us with two blasters that fire icy and fiery projectiles, effective against different types of opponents, as well as generate shields that can deflect or block incoming attacks. DEXED is a single player only title, yet we are also given online rankings that can be used to compare the results of different players.

A rail shooter created by Llamasoft. The player is placed in control of a combat ship, which constantly goes forward and whether it is over a surface or inside a tunnel, the player's role remains to maneuver to the sides, perform dodges, attack enemies and destroy countless obstacles. The player fights smaller and larger adversaries coming in large numbers. A scoring system evaluates the player at all times - the scores achieved in 50 levels (differing in terms of colors and enemies one encounters) can be increased through collecting power-ups (which give speed boosts) and eliminating enemies quickly. Polybius catches one's attention with its simple, but incredibly original visuals and a pleasant, trance soundtrack. Although the game was created specifically for VR headsets, being in possession of such a piece of hardware is not required.

The new edition, developed by Enhance Games studio lead by Tetsuya Mizuguchi, has been adapted to make use of virtual reality goggles, but a traditional gameplay is also available. Aside from the content present in the original game, the developers added a new location, called Area X. In Rez Infinite, the player’s task is to remove the effects of a malfunction inside an advanced AI called Eden. The game mixes the gameplay of so called rail shooters, with elements of rhythm games. As a result, we don’t control the direction where our character is headed – all we have to do is to mark groups of elements appearing on the screen, which explode, generating various audio-visual effects. The abstract visuals, characteristic of the original title, have been adapted to modern standards.
