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.

Pistol Whip PS5

$13.49/£11.24 (-55%)

Rhythm games and virtual reality go together wonderfully, and one of the best examples of that is Pistol Whip. Revamped for PSVR2's bells and whistles, this flashy game is essentially an on-rails shooter set to music. It's a simple idea but executed so well, oozing style and allowing the player to pull off some super cool moves. Firing your guns to the beat and dodging incoming attacks with perfect timing is endlessly satisfying, and the Hollywood-inspired levels are all a treat to look at, too.

PowerWash Simulator 2 PS5

$18.74/£14.99 (-25%)

Despite a few improvements and new features, PowerWash Simulator 2 doesn't really grow too much beyond what came before — but that relaxing, moreish core is still very much there.

It's excellent if you're just looking to switch your brain off for a while.

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.

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew PS5

$9.99/£8.74 (-75%)

This real-time strategy game flew way under the radar for many, but it's another great title from the makers of Desperados III and Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. With a pirate theme, Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew has you command a growing selection of supernatural sailors, each with their own abilities that complement each other. There is a variety of valid approaches to each mission, and its forgiving time rewind function means it does away with any frustration. If you're a fan of strategy titles, this should be on your radar.

Silent Hill 2 PS5

$19.59/£16.79 (-72%)

Comfortably one of the greatest remakes around — especially when you narrow it down to the survival horror genre — Silent Hill 2 is a triumph of a resurrection from Bloober Team and Konami. The vast majority of the original PS2 masterpiece is faithfully brought back with modern visuals and gameplay design, and then expanded upon in all the right ways with bigger areas to explore and then new endings. Silent Hill 2 remains just as incredible as it did back in 2001 thanks to the delicate and appreciated work of Bloober Team.

Silent Hill F PS5

$19.59/£15.39 (-72%)

Silent Hill F takes the survival horror series in a new direction, which pays off for the most part. It’s quite different, and hardcore fans will have to accept that. Combat is a heavy focus, and the move to Japan means there’s a different kind of tone and atmosphere in the air. Technical problems aside, it marks a bold new chapter in the Silent Hill saga. Accept it for what it is, and you’ll find one of PS5’s most intense experiences.
