Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon: Future Soldier
Ghost Recon: Future Soldier is a third-person tactical shooter which places you in dangerous situations. Armed with the most advanced combat technology, the Ghosts are an untraceable unit of soldiers who track down the highest-value targets in the highest-risk conflict areas around the world. In the near future, four of these elite soldiers serve as the tip of the spear in a hidden war raging across the globe. As the Ghosts accomplish their objectives, they discover a far greater threat, one that could alter the international balance of power forever.
Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD Edition
Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker HD Edition is a remaster of the famous third-person stealth game. The player controls a secret agent from an elite special forces unit who is sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and sometimes even the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, even a special forces agent will find it tough to come out alive. The game is more about the cerebral challenge of figuring out how to avoid combat, and the thrill of sneaking through enemy territory undetected.
Be sure to check out these games on Xbox One if you're looking for a break between new experiences like Kingdom Come: Deliverance. Even to this day, Axel & Pixel, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier, and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker remain quite enjoyable.
