Section 8
A forgotten mid-2000s jetpack shooter that punches above its weight in sandbox destruction and player freedom, even if the campaign fizzles.
GamerScout Verdict
A relic worth rescuing if you crave jetpack-driven multiplayer destruction over polish and story.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Section 8
Section 8 threw me into a sci-fi warzone where jetpack mobility and destructible environments actually mattered. You're a soldier with a personal insertion pod, armor upgrades, and the ability to leap around maps that respond to your chaos. The multiplayer modes (Conquest, Swarm) reward creative loadout building and vertical play in ways most modern shooters have forgotten. Weapon variety is solid, and the kinetic feedback of combat feels snappy. But here's the catch: the campaign is a threadbare grind that exists mainly to unlock loadout slots. AI teammates are zombified, mission design is repetitive, and the story evaporates before it gets interesting. If you're buying this, you're doing it for the multiplayer sandbox and the pure joy of jetting around while buildings crumble. If that sounds good to you, Section 8 still holds up. If you need narrative or modern matchmaking, skip it.
