Octopath Traveler II (PS5)

$23.99/£19.99 (-60%)

Octopath Traveler II is a borderline must play for fans of more traditional Japanese RPGs. It's built like a classic but with modern design elements, resulting in a refined role-playing experience. An engaging turn-based combat system and a frankly gorgeous visual style make this a seriously impressive sequel.

Paradise Killer (PS5)

$4.99/£3.99 (-75%)

If you're looking for something wildly different, Paradise Killer is a fantastic option. This game places you down on an open world island in order to solve the mystery surrounding a mass murder. The hook is that the end result is entirely of your making; you're free to explore, talk to suspects, and find evidence, with no hints other than your own discoveries. More than any other detective game, this one gives you total agency over the investigation and the trial that follows, with full responsibility for tracking down the truth resting with you. A fascinating, well-written game that oozes with style to boot — especially on PS5, where neat DualSense use and ray tracing bring the island alive.

Pumpkin Jack: New-Gen Edition (PS5)

$5.99/£4.99 (-80%)

Heavily inspired by classic PlayStation properties like MediEvil and Jak & Daxter, Pumpkin Jack is a delightfully old-school style action platformer. Featuring colourful environments, responsive controls, and simple combat, it's the kind of lighthearted fun that's all too rare these days. Playing as the titular Jack, you traverse through Halloween-themed locations, engaging with spooky baddies and solving some straightforward puzzles. It all comes together to deliver a solid experience that harkens back to a simpler time, and we mean that as a positive thing.

Remnant II (PS5)

$12.49/£9.99 (-75%)

Remnant II is better than its predecessor in basically every way imaginable, but an even bigger focus on procedural generation brings with it some baggage. Navigation is more difficult than it needs to be, while the UI leaves a lot to be desired. In the heat of the action, though, Remnant II is a great, satisfying shooter that allows for lots of different team compositions through deep character customisation. Get a few friends involved for some online co-op fun and you could have yourself an all-new obsession.

RoadCraft (PS5)

$25.99/£22.74 (-35%)

RoadCraft takes the intricate off-road fun of MudRunner and SnowRunner, and melds it with involving micro-management and building aspects, resulting in a fantastic experience that's the dev's best vehicle sim to date. With eight big maps full of ruined environs and treacherous conditions to contend with, a huge array of complex vehicles to master, and co-op play to maximise the fun of it all, this is a big old blast of a thing, a huge sandbox that's got excitement, depth, and challenge in spades.

Sonic Origins (PS5)

$8.99/£8.39 (-70%)

If you'd rather imprison small animals inside your robot army than get your Mega Drive back out, Sonic Origins is the game for you. This retro collection brings all four of the hedgehog's major outings together — that's Sonic 1, Sonic 2, Sonic 3 & Knuckles, and Sonic CD. Sporting revamped visuals for HD displays, a new mode that makes things easier with unlimited lives, the ability to save your data, and a museum packed with interesting behind-the-scenes artwork, it's a great overall package. Brand new animated cutscenes tether all four games together, and there are even some brand new Blue Sphere puzzles to enjoy.

Squirrel with a Gun (PS5)

$6.99/£5.59 (-65%)

Squirrel with a Gun is a chaotic time that is always looking to place your rodent in the most insane positions to make them look like an action movie star. It is quite janky at times and can wear on you fast, so we don’t necessarily recommend trying to knock all of its content out at once, but for a side game that you can go to when you need a break from everything else, Squirrel with a Gun is worthy of your time.
