Exterminauts looks like No Man's Sky but plays like Helldivers 2, and I crushed it at Gamescom 2026
Exterminauts, a new co-op PvE shooter from Behaviour Interactive, offers gameplay similar to Helldivers 2 with a focus on exterminating alien bugs. Despite initial reservations about the premise and genre, the previewer found the game enjoyable and achieved the highest score during a hands-on session at Gamescom 2026. Concerns were raised about the use of generative AI for character voices.
