So you are not only an Xbox owner, but you are also a big shooter fan looking for what to play next? We've got you covered.
What makes a shooter? This article specifically covers shooters where the camera is set in either the first or third person, and gun-based combat makes up the primary core of the experience.
For the longest time, Xbox has been considered the home of console shooters, with its pioneering Xbox Live network atop the Halo franchise. The situation hasn't changed! Here are our picks for the best first and third-person shooters on Xbox One.
Prey
Prey is a tremendous title that looks as though it could become some kind of sleeper hit, but that's totally unfair. Prey is a masterpiece.
In Prey, you play as Morgan Yu, a world renowned scientist working at the TranStar corporation. TranStar has transformed the world with its technology, from sentient hovering robots to brain-modifying Neuromods, that have the capability to grant people skills such as language learning and complex, advanced mathematics in a mere instant.
TranStar's orbital Talos I space station is the site of many of these technological advances, and it's not long after you start playing you'll discover something has gone very, very wrong.
Now overrun with malevolent Typhon creatures, hungry for blood. It's up to Morgan Yu, a pile of Neuromods and prototype, 2030s weaponry to find out the truth about TranStar, and what Morgan's sibling, TranStar CEO Alex Yu, has been up to.
Prey represents the convergence of Deus Ex's huge, open-map layouts and experimental RPG shooter combat, Bioshock's tense, moody atmosphere, and Half Life's theoretical science-heavy plot. If you're a fan of any of those games, you have to consider Prey. Prey is available for around $60.

Gears of War 4 is the latest entry in the iconic Xbox exclusive franchise. Take control of JD Fenix in an explosive co-op campaign that boasts some of the most impressive cinematic visuals the Xbox One has to offer.

If competitive multiplayer is more your thing, Gears of War 4 delivers one of the most finely tuned and six versus modes in the series so far, steeped in visceral, cover-based third-person combat. Gears of War 4 is a great all-rounder for around $60.
Halo 5
Halo 5 is the latest entry in the Xbox's flagship franchise, and it takes the franchise into uncharted territory.

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard
Resident Evil 7: Biohazard is a unique entry on this list, because its gunplay is more a means to induce horror, instead of being central to its gameplay.

After tracking her down to a decrepit plantation deep in a Louisiana swamp, Ethan falls ever deeper into a twisted nightmare that's as terrifying as it is engrossing.
