A tactical close-quarters shooter with no crosshair, lethal weapons and few respawns; the predecessor of Insurgency: Sandstorm.
Who can play
- No split-screen on any platform.
- Online for up to 32 players on PC.
- Each player online needs their own copy.
How it plays
Friends can squad up in co-op modes against computer-controlled insurgents, where clear callouts matter as much as aim, or join team battles of up to 32 players on community servers.
Deaths come fast and the HUD shows very little, so it is unforgiving for beginners.
Each player needs a copy.

Very positive on Steam
“This game has me hooked and I see it as a proudly raised middle finger in the face of large developers who seem to completely ignore fairness and player equality in favour of potential income.”
9.0 · Hooked Gamers “Insurgency is going to win fans for its gameplay. The action is highly competitive and focused. It brings me about as close to a real gunfight as I’ll likely ever want to get.”
75 · GamesBeat “Insurgency is a well paced tactical shooter that's just a couple of big fixes away from competing with Counter-Strike.”
