DOOM: The Dark Ages (PS5)

$23.09/£23.09 (-67%)

DOOM: The Dark Ages goes for something slightly different as it turns back time for a medieval assault on hell’s legions. Not every change pays off, as the introduction of a mech and dragon adds very little to the overall experience. However, when The Dark Ages gets to the FPS action, there aren’t many who do it better than id Software. Take some time to adjust to DOOM: The Dark Ages, and you’ll discover another fantastically ferocious first-person shooter.

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero (PS5)

$34.99/£34.99 (-50%)

Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero brings back the fan favourite Budokai Tenkaichi series in all but name, and the result is great. Featuring hundreds of playable characters from the series' long history, you're able to reenact all your favourite battles in frenetic, technical, and over-the-top brawls. It also features a vague retelling of the saga, where you're able to view the story from new perspectives, plus you can craft your own scenarios to live out even the unlikeliest of rivalries. It's a feature-packed arena fighter that looks fantastic and delivers a super satisfying power fantasy.

Dying Light: The Beast (PS5)

$44.99/£43.49 (-25%)

Dying Light: The Beast is far from the most original game out there. Hell, it’s not even the most original Dying Light. But we’d be lying if we said we didn’t come away entertained. It embraces its silliness in the best ways across its ridiculous story, gorily violent combat, and fun to explore setting. Some level-gating issues in co-op and duller flatter terrain hold it back in spots, but to us this is the best Dying Light yet.

Exoprimal (PS5)

$9.59/£7.99 (-84%)

A white-knuckle fusion of Overwatch 2 and Gears of War, the excellent Exoprimal is one of the best co-op shooters in quite some time. With a varied, entertaining roster of characters, all with unique playstyles and synergies, there’s tactical depth to this third-person shooter which only serves to make its pulsating prehistoric battles all the more rewarding. While it is a little lightweight at launch, and there will be questions over whether it’ll receive the post-release support required to ensure its longevity, there’s the foundation for something truly special here.

Gotham Knights (PS5)

$6.99/£6.49 (-90%)

A spin-off of the Batman: Arkham series, Gotham Knights does its best to transition the world of the Caped Crusader to a Destiny-style co-op experience. The results are a little mixed, and subsequently it fails to match up to the high points of Rocksteady’s iconic series. However, there’s a nice story and enjoyable combat system on offer, which at least offers some short-lived entertainment.

Hell Is Us (PS5)

$23.99/£19.99 (-60%)

With an incredibly dense lore and labyrinthine level design, Hell Is Us is a captivating experience. The game takes its solid (but tough) combat and chin-scratching puzzles and elevates them with a century spanning mystery that goes deeper and deeper. Its hands off approach means there is a huge emphasis on the world, and thankfully Rogue Factor does not disappoint. It’s not going to be for everyone, but for those that love a good lore-filled mystery, this is a PS5 must-play.

Helldivers 2 (PS5)

$29.99/£26.24 (-25%)

Live service executed effortlessly, Helldivers 2’s success can be attributed to Arrowhead putting gameplay ahead of business models. The game’s systemic approach means cinematic moments unfold emergently, as part of the co-operative action and physics at play. Doing your part has never felt quite so good.

Hogwarts Legacy (PS5)

$10.49/£9.74 (-85%)

Taking place hundreds of years before the events of Harry Potter, Hogwarts Legacy finally lets fans live out their dream of attending the eponymous school. While there's an intriguing story to follow that takes you far beyond the castle itself, this RPG's strengths are all in the smaller things. The school is a joy to explore, as are the surrounding grounds, because of an obsessive attention to detail that really does imbue the open world with magic. Layer on top solid spell-based combat, flying on your broom, and even rearing magical creatures, and the result is a real crowd-pleaser — and definitely the best game in the franchise.

Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered (PS5)

$20.99/£22.49 (-58%/-50%)

Horizon Zero Dawn is very much one of Sony’s standout projects of the past ten years, and this superb remaster by Nixxes puts it among the best looking games on the PS5. While the side-quests and supporting content don’t quite match up to sequel Forbidden West, the more focused story is arguably better than its successor, and it’s presented almost flawlessly in this remastered format.
