Gray Zone Warfare is a new entry in the rapidly growing extraction shooter genre. While it is not the Escape From Tarkov killer everyone wanted it to be, not yet anyway, the game is still an amazing breath of fresh air and a solid entry into Steam Early Access.

Helldivers 2 is another game that has proven the power of the AA industry and when games are built with love and passion instead of money and seeking a never ending revenue stream.
