Gaming is big business and we all know someone who’s into gaming, if not ourselves. Military games never cease to be extremely popular. Maybe they allow us to live out our fantasies of what life could have been like had we joined the army or air force. War permeates every aspect of our culture so it’s no surprise that when it comes to gaming, war games are all the rage. Here are some of the best available to play right now:

Battlefield 1

This first-person shooter is the latest offering in the Battlefield franchise and is set during the First World War. It’s available on PS4, Xbox One and PC. The campaign is a serious and sombre depiction of the true human cost of warfare while the multiplayer games offer a chance for action-packed gaming set against the dramatic backdrop of World War I battlefields. It is both creative, thought-provoking and engaging.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

Produced by Infinity Ward, this is another first-person shooter set in modern day 21st century combat situations. It can be played on Xbox One, PS4 and PC. It has been controversial and likes to make statements on current trends in modern warfare. It often shows a cold, detached, uncomfortable type of warfare, demonstrating how easy it is to kill from a distance now. The hugely popular game sends the message that war has changed.

Call of Duty: World at War

Nine years old but a classic war game that changed the face of gaming. World at War featured the epic story of a U.S marine and a Soviet soldier during the Second World War. The game is at times brutal, desperate and intense with a vast array of authentic weaponry in your arsenal. Voice acting was supplied by Kiefer Sutherland and Gary Oldman. The game is dedicated to all WWII veterans around the globe and also featured the start of the hugely popular Nazi Zombie franchise.

It’s an exciting and unique game in that it takes three of the most heroic historical figures and pits them against each other. ‘Duel’ mode enables you to battle an enemy player in a fight to the death scenario.
