Here are the ten most notable titles, all available on PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium.
The call of the open sea: huge worlds and endless exploration
The largest? Elite Dangerous. This space simulator provides access to more than 400 billion star systems. In this online universe, each player influences galactic destiny. Fallout 4for its part, transforms Boston into a post-apocalyptic land teeming with unexpected events. Despite the criticism of the voiced protagonist, the game remains an essential classic. Same thing for Skyrimthe medieval jewel of Bethesda. “Skyrim is a must if you’re looking for an open world RPG.”
On a completely different note, Grand Theft Auto 5 continues to attract millions of players ten years after its release. “Even more than ten years later, the ambition behind Grand Theft Auto 5 is evident.”
From Nordic myth to the streets of New York
Fans of scripted adventures will appreciate the duos formed by God of War And God of War Ragnarokor even Marvel’s Spider-Man And Miles Morales. What do they have in common? A cinematic staging and an exploration guided by the pleasure of discovery. “They take place in a condensed adaptation of Manhattan (and Miles Morales is immersed in a party atmosphere).”
More contemplative, Shadow of the Colossus seduces with its visual poetry and its refined gameplay. “Shadow of the Colossus exudes a gripping emotional charge.”
Beauty, technology and dystopia meet
With its neon lights, its cybernetic implants and its captivating narration, Cyberpunk 2077 stands out with its unique atmosphere. “Cyberpunk 2077 is beautiful, stylish, and a joy to explore.” Same total immersion for Ghost of Tsushimawhich swaps the mini-map for the “directing wind”, for intuitive navigation in the heart of feudal Japan.
Finally, Death Stranding offers an atypical experience, between post-apocalyptic hiking and community support. “There is nothing like Death Stranding.”
