Afterlove EP is a bittersweet musical adventure that effectively navigates some tough subject matter. While the rhythm sequences are a little rough around the edges, exploring the town and moving through the narrative is well worth experiencing on its own — and the music itself is great. If you’re in the mood for a story-driven game that isn’t shying away from heavy themes, this will hit the spot.

Sony comfortably hooked the enthusiast crowd by adding Demon’s Souls to the PS5’s launch lineup. FromSoftware’s legendary action RPG – which would go on to spawn the so-called Soulsborne series and, eventually, even Elden Ring – was snubbed by the Japanese giant during the PS3 era, as it felt early builds were simply not up to snuff. Publishers like Atlus and Bandai Namco eventually picked it up, and it went on to become a cult classic. Perhaps as a tacit admission that it made a mistake, its recruited tech specialists Bluepoint Games to remake the game for a modern era – and the results are remarkable. This version uses original PS3 code to make for an incredibly authentic experience, but its visuals are among some of the best you’ll find on Sony’s new-gen console. It’s an extraordinary blend of old and new that comes highly recommended.

While not the best baseball sim on the market, Super Mega Baseball 4 still manages to charm. Its goofy, fun presentation separates it from more straight-faced sports games, even with some real world all-stars putting in an appearance. Highly customisable and deeper than you might expect, there’s lots of fun to be had here, whether you’re a more casual player or a true fan of the sport.
$14.99/£13.49 (-70%)
Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is the true spiritual successor to the Suikoden series, capturing what made those games magical and expanding on the premise a hundred-fold. It tells a well-written and verbose tale of courage and endurance, but adherence to some fairly brutal old-school design precepts means it won’t appeal to everyone.
$29.99/£29.99 (-40%)
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is a direct sequel to Final Fantasy 7 Remake, as Cloud and the gang embark on their post-Midgar adventure. Featuring open world areas, there’s a much greater emphasis on exploration, and while the core story of Final Fantasy 7 does take a backseat for a lot of the game, there’s an enjoyable focus on character interactions. What’s more, Rebirth is utterly stuffed with things to see and do. Side quests, minigames, treasure hunts — it’s a massive release, and although we’d argue that it feels a bit bloated at times, there’s no questioning the amount of effort Square Enix poured into this second part of the trilogy.
$19.99/£19.99 (-50%)
One of the most iconic Xbox franchises ever lands on PS5 with somewhat of a graphical thud. On its second remaster, Gears of War: Reloaded won’t impress visually. However, with a campaign that still has something to offer despite its dated design, and an excellent multiplayer mode on top, this is a welcome introduction to the Gears of War series. 20 years later, the game that started it all is still more than worth playing.
