10 Most Criminally Underrated Video Games Of 2018 (So Far)

9. H1Z1

In danger of being forgotten, what with Fortnite's complete public domination of the genre and PUBG staying in the headlines by... suing Fortnite, H1Z1 is a remarkably tactile battle royale game with a focus on vehicular combat.

Essentially discarded by the majority of critics as it occupies much the same realistic combat space as PUBG, H1Z1 has still amassed a sizeable following by being available on PS4. For my money it plays far better than PlayerUnknown's thanks to a much more intuitive control scheme, and runs far smoother and more reliably, too.

Developers Daybreak are still releasing patches and teasing features on a monthly basis, but as a solid-feeling military battle royale game that's free (!), H1Z1's blend of car combat, camouflage, FPS toggles and simplistic loadouts is a "Just one more match" itch-scratching phenom.
