Most blockchain shooter projects were announced years before a playable build existed. This 2026 list focuses on games that are live, in early access, or running active public tests, prioritising those with a real combat loop and a clear shooter identity. It is an editorial shortlist, not the complete shooter database. Hybrid action games and early-stage extraction shooters that do not yet meet the main criteria sit in honorable mentions.
For the full database view, see the shooter blockchain games category.
How We Selected These Shooter Games
This list is an editorial shortlist based on each game’s visible status in 2026, development stage, public activity, shooter fit, and broader Web3 gaming sentiment. We looked at signals such as official updates, X activity, Discord presence, public tests or live availability, community discussion, visible popularity, and our own familiarity with the Web3 gaming sector to shape the final order.
At a Glance
| Game | Type | Current role in the list |
|---|---|---|
| Off The Grid | Third-person extraction shooter | Strongest active shooter |
| Shrapnel | Third-person extraction shooter | Early Access extraction shooter on Steam |
| My Pet Hooligan | Action game with shooter elements | Hybrid combat game with active visibility |

1. Off The Grid
Type: Third-person extraction shooter | Blockchain: GUNZ / Avalanche ecosystem | Token: GUN | Platforms: PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S | Status: Live / Early Access
Off The Grid is a cyberpunk extraction shooter from Gunzilla Games built around battle royale-style matches, cyberlimb abilities, and item extraction. Players equip and upgrade cyberlimbs as part of their combat build, adding a customisation layer to the extraction format beyond standard loadouts. The game has a full client, public matchmaking, and regular roadmap updates, making it one of the more complete public shooter packages available. Its blockchain layer covers item trading and the wider GUNZ economy, while the core combat loop is defined by movement, gunplay, and loadout decisions.
2. Shrapnel
Type: Third-person extraction shooter | Blockchain: Avalanche / Shrapnel subnet | Token: SHRAP | Platforms: PC (Steam Early Access) | Status: Early Access
Shrapnel is an extraction shooter focused on operator builds, tactical combat, and player-created content. The game is available in Early Access on Steam, giving it a defined public access point rather than a gated invite system. The longer-term design pairs the extraction loop with a creator layer: user-generated content, cosmetics, and an economy built around content creation. How the extraction gameplay develops alongside that creator side is the key question as Early Access continues.
3. My Pet Hooligan
Type: Action game with shooter elements | Blockchain: Ethereum / Base ecosystem | Token: KARROT | Platforms: PC (Epic Games Store) | Status: Live / Early Access
My Pet Hooligan is a stylised action game built around fast movement, arena combat, and player-versus-player modes. Gunplay and combat movement are central to the experience, placing it closer to an action shooter than a metaverse or social platform. The game has maintained consistent public visibility and community activity, supported by its character presentation and regular updates. It fits the shooter category as a hybrid action game rather than a tactical or military-style FPS.
4. Decimated
Type: Cyberpunk open-world shooter | Blockchain: Solana | Token: DIO | Platforms: PC (Epic Games Store) | Status: Early Access
Decimated is a cyberpunk open-world shooter set in a damaged future city where players take on roles as human citizens, criminals, or cyborg police. Gameplay spans combat, travel, trading, missions, vehicles, and survival choices across the open world, with faction role shaping how each session plays out. The game is available through the Epic Games Store in Early Access. The DIO token runs alongside the economy, but the core draw is the open-world combat setup and how faction selection affects play style.
5. BR1: INFINITE
Type: Real-money extraction shooter | Blockchain: Solana | Token: Not central to current description | Platforms: PC | Status: Active playtests
BR1: INFINITE is an extraction shooter built around a pay-to-spawn model. Each match entry carries a cost, and the outcome determines whether that cost is recovered: successful extraction or eliminating opponents pays out, while a failed run loses the entry stake. The format replaces the standard free match queue with a higher-stakes loop tied to each session’s result. Access has run through active playtest periods rather than a permanent open build, and the model remains more experimental than most of the shooters covered here.
6. Artyfact
Type: Metaverse with shooter and battle modes | Blockchain: BNB Chain | Token: ARTY | Platforms: PC | Status: Live / playable
Artyfact is a metaverse-style platform combining social spaces, events, mini-games, and action modes. Its battle arenas and combat gameplay bring it into shooter-adjacent territory, even though the broader project extends well beyond the shooter genre. The game has a playable client and active combat modes, remaining relevant to the shooter-adjacent category despite its wider platform identity.
Honorable Mentions: Hybrids and Early Stage Shooters
Wilder World: An open-world metaverse project set in Wiami, with racing, FPS combat, exploration, RPG-style missions, and asset ownership across land, vehicles, and other in-game items. It is not a dedicated shooter, but its FPS battles are part of a broader playable world rather than a minor side feature.
KOMPETE: A multi-game platform with Blitz Royale, a fast-paced battle royale mode built around exosuits, respawns, drone-deployed items, attribute customization, traits, and last-team-standing matches. It fits the shooter conversation through Blitz Royale, but remains a broader competitive platform rather than a dedicated blockchain shooter.
AneeMate: A creature-focused extraction shooter in active playtesting. The format fits the genre, but it does not yet have a stable public build that would qualify it for the main list.
REVENGE: A co-op PvE extraction shooter currently in pre-alpha. The concept fits extraction shooter conventions cleanly, but the playable footprint is still limited.
Providence: An extraction shooter with a longer development history and a clear genre fit. It remains worth tracking, but slower public updates and a less defined current access path keep it outside the main list for now.
Conclusion
The blockchain shooter category is led by a small group of games with active combat builds and visible development, not by the volume of projects that announced shooter ambitions in prior years. Off The Grid and Shrapnel are the clearest dedicated extraction shooters. Decimated, BR1: INFINITE, My Pet Hooligan, and Artyfact each cover a different format: open-world combat, high-stakes extraction, hybrid action, and metaverse combat respectively. The honorable mentions show where the next tier may develop from, though all are earlier in their lifecycle. Access, platform support, and economy design can shift quickly across this category, so the linked game overviews are the best place to check current status.
