The best shooter games like Enlisted are Hell Let Loose, Post Scriptum and Squad. Below are 9, each with the reason it is here — and, at the end, what filtering to shooter costs you.
Filtering to shooter means you want the guns to be the answer. It is the right filter when what you liked was the feedback — the sound, the recoil, the way enemies react.
What you get: Moment-to-moment feel, and the shortest distance between picking a game up and enjoying it.
What made Enlisted worth playing in the first place is covered on the full list. This page is the shooter part of that answer, and only the shooter part.
Fifty-a-side WWII with a supply chain and real command roles. Slower, heavier, no AI squad.
The same era with a stricter simulation streak and a much longer walk to the fight.
Modern rather than WWII, but the squad-leader-and-radio loop is the closest match to what Enlisted is reaching for.
Big-map WWI with vehicles and destruction, if the appeal is scale rather than command.
Old-school WWII multiplayer with none of the squad management, if you only wanted the guns.
The mainstream version of the setting, with a campaign built for it.
Where the command fantasy goes if you want it total — orders, logistics and a map in your hands.
WWII with the sandbox turned up and the history turned down.
If the lethality was the draw — two bullets and you are done, modern setting.
Variety. Shooters commit hard to one loop, and the ones that try to be something else usually do the something else badly.
Specifically, these are strong answers for Enlisted that are not shooter games, so they are not on this page:
The full list is on games like Enlisted — 10 picks, no genre filter.
Hell Let Loose. Fifty-a-side WWII with a supply chain and real command roles. Slower, heavier, no AI squad.
No. Enlisted released on the PC & Modern Multi-Platform, but a recommendation is only useful if you can play it, so the picks above span platforms and eras. What they share is the genre and the reason.
How the guns sound and how enemies react to being hit. A shooter with mediocre levels and superb weapon feedback is more fun than the reverse, every time.
Each pick says. Several of the best shooters ever made are single-player campaigns, and a few of the co-op ones are genuinely worse with bots.
By hand. Each pick was written for the full Enlisted list first, on what the game actually does, and this page is the part of that list that is shooter — never a genre tag lookup, which is how "best racing games like Super Mario 64" used to be a page on this site.
