The 14 Best Looter Shooter Games, Ranked

From space ninjas to light guardians to killer crabs, these are the very best looter shooters around. Despite being one of the more recognisable sub-genres in gaming, you may be surprised by just how precious few looter shooters there actually are. Putting together a list of the best of them revealed how rare a truly brilliant one is, presumably a result of how incredibly hard they are to make, and their unfortunate tendency to go the way of Anthem or Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League – cut short after failing to grab an audience. But what they lack in quantity, they more than make up for in just how many hours you can lose to them, and over the past nearly two decades we’ve spent more time with this genre than we’d care to admit.
