Besides the good news, today we take a look at the best shooting games, action games ever released for Windows 11, and Windows 8.1 and of course Windows 7. Some of these games will require you to install STEAM which will enable you to download the mentioned games that require Steam. Trust me it’s worth it if you really enjoy gaming, especially the multiplayer aspect.
Does Windows 11 Have Fun Action Games?
Yes! Of course it does! One thing people are forgetting is that when Windows 11 was released, even though it is a major upgrade from Windows 8 or Windows 8.1, Windows 11 computers and laptops can play 95% of all the games that worked on Windows 8 or even Windows 7. That’s the beauty of Windows and we have to thank Microsoft for that. Anyway, let us begin with best action games for windows 10.
#1. Download Grand Theft Auto V
Grand Theft Auto V for Windows 11 PC offers players the option to explore the award-winning world of Los Santos and Blaine County in resolutions of up to 4k and beyond, as well as the chance to experience the game running at 60 frames per second. We all know how great this game is! Whether you have it on PC, PS3/PS4 or Xbox 1, the game is one of the highest rated games by almost every gamer who has played it, including myself here on WindowsMode.com – I urge you try this game if you haven’t, you can literally do almost anything you can imagine, good things or bad things, it’s up to you.
The game offers players a huge range of PC-specific customization options, including over 25 separate configurable settings for texture quality, shaders, tessellation, anti-aliasing and more, as well as support and extensive customization for mouse and keyboard controls. Additional options include a population density slider to control car and pedestrian traffic, as well as dual and triple monitor support, 3D compatibility, and plug-and-play controller support.
Grand Theft Auto V for PC also includes Grand Theft Auto Online, with support for 30 players and two spectators. Grand Theft Auto Online for PC will include all existing gameplay upgrades and Rockstar-created content released since the launch of Grand Theft Auto Online, including Heists and Adversary modes.
The PC version of Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online features First Person Mode, giving players the chance to explore the incredibly detailed world of Los Santos and Blaine County in an entirely new way.

#2. Download Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS: GO) will expand upon the team-based action game-play that it pioneered when it was launched 14 years ago.
This is by far one of the best if not the greatest game, wait wait, let me not even question it…This IS the best game that I have ever played. I started playing this game in the early 2000’s when I was still in middle school or younger. I was honestly one of the best players in the world with a kill to death ratio average of about 4 kills to 1 death. Lol, seriously though, I was that good with my AWP and Desert Eagle combo, no camping, I would rush with the Desert Eagle pistol or pull out my AK47 or M16 on anyone who dared to challenge, ah, those were the days.
CS: GO features new maps, characters, and weapons and delivers updated versions of the classic CS content (de_dust, etc.). In addition, CS: GO will introduce new gameplay modes, matchmaking, leader boards, and more.
“Counter-Strike took the gaming industry by surprise when the unlikely MOD became the most played online PC action game in the world almost immediately after its release in August 1999,” said Doug Lombardi at Valve. “For the past 12 years, it has continued to be one of the most-played games in the world, headline competitive gaming tournaments and selling over 25 million units worldwide across the franchise. CS: GO promises to expand on CS’ award-winning gameplay and deliver it to gamers on the PC
