Enlisted earns the number two spot by doing something most games on this list don't: putting genuine tactical co-op at the center of every match. You and up to three friends coordinate squad composition, manage soldier roles, and execute objectives across large-scale WWII battles. It's not just about individual performance — squad communication and role synergy actually change outcomes. The co-op squad play unlocks quickly after the tutorial with no significant progression gate, and crossplay means you can recruit friends on other platforms. The trade-off is that the PvP context means matches can feel chaotic when coordination breaks down. But for players who want historical squad tactics rather than another looter shooter, this fills a gap nothing else on this list does.

Overview
About Enlisted
Enlisted is a squad-based first person MMO shooter covering key battles from World War II. The game carefully recreates weapons, military vehicles and the atmosphere of that era, while demonstrating really massive clashes of numerous soldiers, tanks and aircraft with artillery and naval support.
Most of the Enlisted game modes simulate a battle involving several infantry platoons and gives the player control over a squad of soldiers with various roles (i.e. submachine gun soldier, sniper, radio operator, rifleman and others), a whole military vehicle crew or an aircraft pilot. One of the fighters is controlled directly, while others move and shoot independently following the player's general orders. In a situation where all the soldiers in the squad have fallen, a player respawns with the next available squad. This decision makes Enlisted battles look massive and spectacular while keeping the input of each individual player in the overall team victory quite significant.
