It also makes full use of PSVR2's features, including adaptive triggers and haptic feedback in the controllers and headset.

Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition (PS4)

$9.99/£6.99 (-80%)

Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition brings one of, if not the best Tales game to PS4, and that alone will no doubt be enough to persuade fans of the series. But really, ten years after its original release, Vesperia deserves more credit than that. It's a borderline classic Japanese RPG, and one that still holds up thanks to a great cast of characters and some finely poised action.

The Alters (PS5)

$24.49/£20.29 (-30%)

The Alters is a fascinating sci-fi survival adventure that does things in its own unique way. You play as a lone cosmonaut whose only hope is to create alternate versions of himself, each one of them specialising in different elements, like medicine, or engineering. It results in a brilliant mix of crafting, base building, and intriguing narrative as you roam a desolate, hostile planet trying to stay alive. There's really nothing quite like it.

Tomba! Special Edition (PS5)

$7.99/£6.39 (-60%)

Tomba! is still a weird and mostly wonderful little platformer, packed with character and charm from beginning to end. Some of its more convoluted design elements can frustrate, and the backtracking's a bit of a slog at times, but the core, grab-happy gameplay remains satisfyingly fun. And, with the addition of unlimited saves and a rewind function, it's hard not to appreciate and enjoy this revived PS1 oddity.

Two Point Museum (PS5)

$23.99/£19.99 (-20%)

Two Point Museum takes the series to an original setting that allows for a much more varied and fun management sim. On top of usual duties like hiring staff, setting prices, and meeting objectives, you'll send out expeditions to secure new artefacts for your museum. This curation aspect adds an extra layer of customisation and interest, making for what is probably the most appealing game in the series so far.

Under the Waves (PS5)

$7.49/£6.24 (-75%)

Under the Waves is set almost entirely underwater, and while it's not a horror game, it is deeply unsettling at times. The ocean makes an excellent setting thanks to its inherent vastness, and how wildly alien it is for us land-dwellers. There's an incredible atmosphere to this game, a sort of constant sense of impending doom coupled with occasional, odd moments of beauty.

Unpacking (PS5)

$7.99/£6.39 (-60%)

Unpacking proves that even the simplest of concepts can have impact. The act of moving a young woman into her various living spaces by unboxing all her possessions is a surprisingly effective storytelling device, and what's more, it's incredibly relaxing to do. Gorgeous pixel art and chill music enhance the vibe as you follow the main character through her life. While it doesn't last very long, it's a memorable game that does a lot with a little.

Vendetta Forever (PS5)

$10.99/£8.79 (-45%)

If you played SUPERHOT and are looking for more, Vendetta Forever is your best bet. This PSVR2 puzzle shooter has you killing targets in stylish ways, and the only way you can move is by teleporting to the weapon your downed enemies were holding. Strategic, responsive, and satisfying, this is a brilliant virtual reality title that really makes the most of the tech, and makes you feel like a badass to boot.

Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars (PS4)

$11.99/£9.99 (-60%)

Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars is a unique spin on the traditional RPG formula. Everything in the game is represented by cards — characters, weapons, combat abilities, and even the world map — and the result is very effective. It offers up a straightforward turn-based RPG with great presentation and some fun twists and turns. The combat may lose some steam later on, but there's a lot to enjoy here.

WipEout Omega Collection (PS4)

$9.99/£11.99 (-50%/-60%)

The granddaddy of anti-gravity racing makes a triumphant return to PlayStation with a gorgeous remaster that brings together content from WipEout HD, Fury, and 2048. The fast and fluid racer plays beautifully, looks gorgeous, and runs like a shiny, metal dream. The recently added VR support is incredibly well implemented too, making this an even better package for PSVR owners. While we’d have preferred an all new entry in the franchise, this serves as a great reminder of why WipEout is so beloved by fans.

Yooka-Replaylee (PS5)

$26.99/£22.04 (-10%)

Yooka-Replaylee is a brilliant remake of the original game. It expands and improves upon so many areas that it leaves the original release in the dust. It took a long wait, but Yooka and Laylee finally have a 3D platformer worthy of the Banjo-Kazooie comparisons.

Zombie Army 4: Dead War (PS4)

$4.99/£3.99 (-90%)

Zombie Army 4: Dead War is one of the best co-operative focused games on PS4. Its meaty campaign boasts of impressive level variety, a superb control scheme, and enjoyable gameplay mechanics while a Horde mode tests your abilities to the max. Rebellion has crafted an experience with so much to see and do that it could take a group of players weeks to master everything on offer — a crowning success for this type of game. Zombie Army 4: Dead War is an absolute riot of a title that is just as cheeky as it is fun to play.

Death Stranding Director's Cut (PS5)

£17.99 (-60%)

Death Stranding Director's Cut takes the truly unique "strand game" adventure and dials things up a notch for PS5. Hideo Kojima and his team created a haunting and strange world with the original game, tasking players with traversing a desolate and dangerous landscape to make deliveries. It shouldn't work, but it does — every step you take can be a risk, and this need to watch your footing is an interesting way to create tension, especially when those nasty BTs show up. Director's Cut enhances the experience with improved graphics and performance, DualSense support, 3D audio, and a range of new content.

Arise: A Simple Story (PS4)

$3.99/£3.99 (-80%)

By making a point of keeping things simple, Arise: A Simple Story excels in all the right places. Basic 3D platforming is elevated by the introduction of time manipulation, transforming the beauty of its locations into an interactable piece of art. And when its visual design is already this stunning, it makes for an experience that delights every sense imaginable.

Detroit: Become Human (PS4)

$9.99/£12.49 (-50%)

While so many interactive dramas cheat, Detroit: Become Human is the most adaptable narrative ever conceived. Lead characters can die in the opening hours of the story, and that’s the last you’ll see of them for the remainder of the campaign. The robotic revolution plotline can be a bit heavy-handed, but as with all Quantic Dream games, there are some real high-points that will stick with you long after the credits roll.

Returnal (PS5)

$29.39/£34.99 (-58%/-50%)

Not that it needed to, but with Returnal, Housemarque has proven itself an incredibly capable studio. This PS5 exclusive is a frantic, ultra-tight third person shooter dressed up with some rogue-like elements to add variety and unpredictability to the mix, and the result is wonderful. Whether you're in it for the world class gameplay, the atmospheric sci-fi setting, the intentionally mysterious story, or the variety of extra modes, Returnal is among the most robust, rewarding, and addictive games on PS5.
