Rise: 30 Minutes to Extinction

About

You’ve got 30 minutes to stop an alien invasion in this chaotic third-person shooter. Fight through waves of enemies in a race against the clock, hunting down three alien bosses to collect keys and defuse a bomb. Once the clock hits zero the goal shifts, survive as long as possible while earning points for kills and objectives. Play solo or team up with friends in co-op or competitive multiplayer modes that emphasize quick thinking and gunplay over long story beats. The game’s frantic pacing and replayability stand out, with leaderboards encouraging repeated runs for higher scores. While not a critical darling, its straightforward action and support for local co-op have kept it a niche favorite since release. The blend of timed missions and score chasing appeals to players looking for high-energy shooters without overwhelming complexity.
