The TimeSplitters series from developers Free Radical Design is one of the most beloved first-person shooters of yesteryear and fans would love nothing more than to see its triumphant return.
The first game in the series wasTimeSplittersin 2000 forPlayStation2. Sure, it wasn’t a perfect game, but it was a lot of fun jumping into its multiplayer modes to play locally with friends on the couch. When its sequel arrived in 2002 for PlayStation 2, the originalXboxandNintendoGameCube it built upon the predecessor’s formula in an epic game that garnered a score of 90 on theaggregate websiteMetacritic earning the “Must-Play” accolade.

When the third game in the series arrived in 2005,TimeSplitters: Future Perfect, it arguably wasn’t as good as the first sequel, but in fairness, it was always going to be a tall ask to improve on that formula. That being said,TimeSplitters: Future Perfectwas still a lot of fun whether you played the single-player campaign or its multiplayer. Sadly,TimeSplitters: Future Perfectwould be the last entry in this cult classic series and nearly two decades later, fans are desperate to see a fourth game.
