Sony and Microsoft have moved from the console war to the PC platform. In recent years, they have broken the PS5 exclusive strategy of first-party games to capture the PC player market.

Steam, full version“Horizon Western Forbidden Land”andUntil Dawn Remastered EditionIt will also be released on Steam in 2024.
“Battlefield 2”, which focuses on multiplayer cooperative shooting, is the first game released by PlayStation to be released on PS5 and PC at the same time. According to SteamDB statistics at the time of writing this article, there are still 113,000 players playing it, surpassing “God of War” in 2022. A record of 73,529 players set by Steam, and it almost entered the top ten most played games on Steam.
Given that “God of War” was ported to PC many years following it was released on PS4, “Battlefield 2” as a new game should be more attractive to players than the former, and its subject matter is still relatively niche.
As a member of the armed forces of “Super Earth”, the player vows to take back the colony ravaged by the Zerg. Unlike the previous game’s God-perspective (aerial view) shooting method, the third-person perspective of “Jedi Warriors 2” is three-dimensional, the battle is more immersive, and the use of explosive The firepower spreads peace and democracy, and the death cries following the Zerg blood splashes across the screen are quite pleasant.

Interview by foreign media Polygon Simon Carless, founder of GameDiscoverCo, analyzed that the success of this game can be attributed to the online cooperative gameplay of a four-person team. “I think co-op is the key. People are always looking for 3A cooperative games that they can try with their friends. The first generation Deadpool is a great co-op game and a great starting point for a sequel.”
When “Battle Warriors 2” was first launched, there were connection problems with multiplayer servers, and some players reported that the anti-cheating software Nprotect Gameguard prevented the game from starting. The official also released an update file immediately to deal with it, and player reviews ranged from good to bad. Not a pick up of 75% mostly positive reviews.
If readers are obsessed with the insect-killing setting of “Star Troopers: Extinction”, but hate the rough FPS experience, it is recommended to try “Star Troopers 2” with more diverse tactics and more detailed scenes, and put on the uniform. Travel through the war-torn galaxy and fight for freedom.
