Abiotic Factor
Play it on: PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC
Current goal: Get back into this cool survival game
Abiotic Factor isn’t a new game, but it is out of early access and now on consoles. So I’ve hopped back in after being away for a few months, and it’s remarkable how much better this already great survival game is now. If you’re a fan of the OG Half-Life and have some buddies looking for a survival co-op game to play together that isn’t just about breaking trees and hiding in caves, I’d highly recommend Abiotic Factor.
It’s strange, but in a cool way. And it can get creepy, too. It’s out now on Xbox and PlayStation as well as PC and supports crossplay. Just be warned: You might spend a lot of time hanging out in bathrooms and drinking toilet water. —Zack Zwiezen
