Game of the Month January 2025 Poll

It's been a long time coming, but our official Game of the Month series is back!

As the name suggests, these articles allow us to peer into the past, celebrating the month that was by recalling its best PS5 games. But of course, we need your help to determine our Game of the Month winner.

January 2025 wasn't a particularly busy period for new releases (all of the heaviest hitters are lined up for February and March), but the first month of the year was still sprinkled with quality.

Dynasty Warriors made a rather triumphant comeback with Dynasty Warriors: Origins, which was met with really positive reviews and praise from many existing fans.

Meanwhile, Wuthering Waves released as a genuine competitor to the likes of Genshin Impact — a free-to-play action RPG backed by a crazy budget.

But let's not overlook games like Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector and Tails of Iron 2: Whiskers of Winter — indie sequels that improve on their already well-received predecessors.

And speaking of sequels, the new Sniper Elite, Sniper Elite: Resistance, hit just last week, but it's already making waves as yet another rock solid entry in the historical shooter series.
