X-17

About

X-17 is a first-person and third-person shooter where you battle aliens across multiple worlds. You move through varied environments from ruined cities to alien landscapes, using a range of weapons to survive waves of enemies. The game lets you switch perspectives mid-fight, giving a mix of close-up action and strategic distance. Missions often involve defending key locations or pushing through hostile zones with minimal respawns. The game stands out for its tight gunplay and atmospheric settings. While not graphically cutting edge, the level design keeps encounters fresh. Player reviews note the challenge can feel inconsistent but the core loop of fight-and-move remains satisfying. Launched in early 2016, it runs well on older hardware and offers around eight hours of campaign content.
