The version available on PS4 and PS5 today includes the original time-hopping campaign and extensive local multiplayer content, with support for up to four players. It also now features PS4 and PS5 Trophy support, including a Platinum Trophy, making the classic even more rewarding to revisit for modern PlayStation players.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"this-may-be-the-best-fps-of-the-bunch\">\n                        This May Be The Best FPS Of The Bunch<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape \">\n<div class=\"responsive-img  image-expandable  img-article-item\" style=\"padding-bottom:50%\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.srcdn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/1A8B018B-9308-4FF3-84CB-CD595969D0BE.jpeg\" data-modal-id=\"single-image-modal\" data-modal-container-id=\"single-image-modal-container\" data-img-caption=\"&quot;&quot;\">\n                                                                                            <picture><source media=\"(max-width: 480px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.srcdn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/1A8B018B-9308-4FF3-84CB-CD595969D0BE.jpeg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=500&amp;dpr=2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.srcdn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/1A8B018B-9308-4FF3-84CB-CD595969D0BE.jpeg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=500&amp;dpr=2\"\/><source media=\"(max-width: 767px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.srcdn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/1A8B018B-9308-4FF3-84CB-CD595969D0BE.jpeg?q=70&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=800&amp;dpr=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.srcdn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/1A8B018B-9308-4FF3-84CB-CD595969D0BE.jpeg?q=70&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=800&amp;dpr=1\"\/><source media=\"(max-width: 1023px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.srcdn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/1A8B018B-9308-4FF3-84CB-CD595969D0BE.jpeg?q=70&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=825&amp;dpr=1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.srcdn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/1A8B018B-9308-4FF3-84CB-CD595969D0BE.jpeg?q=70&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=825&amp;dpr=1\"\/><img width=\"825\" height=\"413\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"TimeSplitters Future Perfect\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.srcdn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/1A8B018B-9308-4FF3-84CB-CD595969D0BE.jpeg?q=70&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=825&amp;dpr=1\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.srcdn.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/1A8B018B-9308-4FF3-84CB-CD595969D0BE.jpeg?q=70&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=825&amp;dpr=1\"\/>\n        <\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><em>TimeSplitters: Future Perfect<\/em> holds its own among even modern FPS games, though it clearly shows its age being a PlayStation 2 title.
