What to consider

Summarized by AI

Insurgency fans like tight, lethal close-quarters fighting where a team wins by taking strongholds. These five stay in the realistic military shooter family: Insurgency: Sandstorm is the direct follow-up, Squad scales the battles way up, and GROUND BRANCH, Arma Reforger and Ready or Not offer other takes on tactical play.

1. Insurgency: Sandstorm

Best for fans who want the same lethal tactics with updated sound and vehicles.

90 votes

Death is instant, ammunition is precious, and victory demands skill and coordination. It adds deadly ballistics, artillery strikes and light attack vehicles. Original Insurgency fans get the same lethality with modern audio and a bigger range of tools to coordinate.

Standout features

  • Instant death combat
  • Artillery strikes
  • Light attack vehicles

2. GROUND BRANCH

Best for fans who like planning an operation more than rushing a stronghold.

43 votes

You play the elite paramilitary arm of the CIA's Special Activities Center, leading special operations forces on deniable ops around the world. The pace is deliberate, calculated and unforgiving, aiming to bring back tactical realism. It is a slower, more planned alternative for Insurgency fans.

Standout features

  • Deniable global ops
  • Deliberate and unforgiving
  • Tactical realism revival

3. Squad

Best for team players who want huge, coordinated battles rather than small skirmishes.

119 votes

Massive 50 vs. 50 battles are built around combat realism, teamwork and authentic warfare, with PvE and PvP both on offer. Insurgency fans used to squad coordination get a much larger scale, with faction-specific weapons and vehicles to build loadouts from.

Standout features

  • 50 vs. 50 scale
  • Faction-specific weapons
  • Teamwork-driven combat

4. Arma Reforger

Best for realism fans who want mods and big terrains instead of tight maps.

136 votes

A Cold War military sandbox with realistic weapons and large terrains. You can fight other players or AI across multiplayer, co-op and single-player modes, and nearly everything can be tailored with mods. It trades Insurgency's tight street fights for room to roam.

Standout features

  • Authentic Cold War setting
  • Mods from the Workshop
  • Multiplayer, co-op, single-player

5. Ready or Not

Best for squads who want co-op tactical missions with a leader's role.

276 votes

A co-op tactical shooter where you recruit a squad and lead it through its missions. Home Invasion, set after a hurricane, is one of them, with Dark Waters and Boiling Point adding more. Insurgency fans after a squad-led, mission-driven take will find a fit.

Standout features

  • Co-op tactical shooter
  • Squad-leading missions
  • DLC mission packs
