Warnings
TimeShift is a singleplayer and multiplayer first-person action, FPS and shooter game.
The game has some compatibility issues with modern hardware, primarily with systems with over 8 CPU cores or threads. Additionally, due to how the title implemented GPU checks, the game will refuse to launch on any system using Intel graphics by default regardless of actual hardware capabilities, and may not switch to compatible discrete graphics device on hybrid GPU systems. Affected users can check this subsection for a workaround.
