$23.99/£21.99 (-60%)

As far as faithful remakes go, Persona 3 Reload is right up there with the best you'll find on PlayStation. The original Persona 3 is an undeniable classic, but Reload greatly improves the experience by modernising its turn-based combat and expanding its storytelling. What's more, it's an utterly gorgeous revival, boasting incredible art direction and some of the most stunning presentation you're ever likely to see in an RPG. A must for existing fans, and for newcomers, a perfect introduction to the Dark Hour.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart (PS5)

$29.39/£34.99 (-58%/-50%)

Up until Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart released, Insomniac Games’ dynamic duo had been wilting in the wilderness a little bit. The PS4 reboot, Ratchet & Clank, was well-received – but it felt lightweight compared to classic series entries, like Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time. Fortunately, while Rift Apart doesn’t necessarily reinvent the wheel, it does deliver the series’ first full-scale adventure in well over a generation. This is a game that feels great to play, thanks in part to stunning DualSense integration and some of the glitziest special effects this side of the galaxy. It’s a little more throwaway than many of the PS5’s other exclusives, but its thoroughly entertaining while it lasts, and the introduction of new characters like Rivet mean there’s a lot of life left in this series yet.

Resident Evil 2 (PS5)

$7.99/£6.99 (-80%)

The differences between Resident Evil 2 on PS4 and PS5 are few and far between, but its everlasting quality remains. This is still a spectacular remake of the 1998 survival horror classic, modernising Leon S. Kennedy and Claire Redfield's first adventure with a third-person camera and vastly updated visuals. The Raccoon Police Department has never looked more terrifying with a native 4K resolution and ray tracing on PS5, so leave enough room to peek over the covers and experience one of the best horror experiences around.

Sayonara Wild Hearts (PS4)

$6.49/£3.99 (-50%)

There aren't really any other games quite like Sayonara Wild Hearts, a fast-paced arcade title set to a series of catchy electronic tunes. Following a vague storyline about a character figuring out who they are, this dream-like experience is only a couple of hours long, but folds in various challenges and high scores to strive for to extend its appeal.

Shinobi: Art of Vengeance (PS5)

$14.99/£12.49 (-50%)

Shinobi: Art of Vengeance is hard to fault. We can take or leave the story, the platforming is occasionally frustrating, and levels can outstay their welcome sometimes — but that's basically it. This is otherwise a brilliant 2D action platformer that looks gorgeous and plays even better thanks to kinetic, satisfying combat that feels superb when you get in the flow. If this is any indicator of SEGA's other upcoming franchise revivals, we're in for some good times ahead.

Solar Ash (PS5)

$9.99/£8.24 (-75%)

Solar Ash is the follow-up to Heart Machine's first game, Hyper Light Drifter, and it's a pretty big departure on all fronts. Unlike its predecessor, this title is fully 3D and has a much larger emphasis on traversal and fluid motion. While you do engage in some combat, it's fleeting and purposely straightforward, again keeping you moving as you tackle each area and their huge bosses. The result is a stylish, slick platformer that feels wonderful to play. It might lack a touch of variety in places, but it's ultimately fun just flitting about in its surreal setting.

Sonic Frontiers (PS5)

$17.99/£14.99 (-70%)

With Sonic Frontiers, SEGA decided to play with the traditional formula of the hedgehog's 3D outings, and the result is one of his strongest adventures in a long time. While certainly not without its flaws, this open world spin on the speedy character is refreshing, giving him ample room to run and plenty of opportunities to engage in bite-size platforming challenges. Most importantly, Sonic feels nimble and fun to control — most of the time, anyway. There's definitely some rough edges here, but it's ultimately an enjoyable game that fans of the franchise will adore.

Sonic X Shadow Generations (PS5)

$19.99/£17.99 (-60%)

Sonic X Shadow Generations really is a game of two halves. The remaster of the fan favourite original game is here and intact, albeit perhaps showing its age in some ways. Meanwhile, the all-new Shadow Generations campaign is possibly the best that 3D Sonic has ever been. It builds on the solid foundation laid by Sonic Frontiers and refines the gameplay in bombastic levels that largely sidestep most of the issues the modern games have been suffering from for years. If you love Sonic Generations, great, but for our money, Shadow's side of this game is where the real value lies.

Split Fiction (PS5)

$34.99/£31.49 (-30%)

Following up the beloved It Takes Two, Split Fiction is another co-op action adventure in much the same vein, but it's a big step up. Featuring simple and smooth controls at its core, this game focuses on two aspiring writers who get stuck in a simulation of their own stories, resulting in a wildly varied quest through sci-fi and fantasy worlds. The pace at which it presents you with new ideas, breathless set-pieces, and ingenious co-op moments is unparalleled, culminating in a finale that's unlike anything we've seen before in a game. This is arguably the best co-op experience on PS5, and it's one of 2025's top titles full stop.
