A Way Out (PS4)

$5.39/£4.49 (-82%)

Okay, so A Way Out is seriously unique – you have to play it with a friend. It’s built entirely around two-player co-op, and honestly, that’s what makes it so good. You and your buddy play as a couple of convicts breaking out of prison and trying to get payback on the people who wronged them. The story is really engaging, and everything is designed around teamwork, making it a fantastic experience when you’re playing with someone else.

Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon (PS5)

$29.99/£29.99 (-50%)

Okay, so FromSoftware, the guys behind Dark Souls and Elden Ring, went back to a series they started way before those games: Armored Core. This new one, the sixth main game, feels a lot like the older Armored Core titles – which might be a bit jarring if you’re used to their newer stuff. But honestly, it’s still a really solid game! You’re constantly jumping into missions, tweaking and upgrading your mech with new parts to dominate the battlefields of Rubicon. It’s consistently fun, though I wouldn’t say it’s quite as mind-blowing as some of the games FromSoftware is famous for now.

This is easily the best Battlefield game I’ve played in years – it’s a total blast!

Okay, so I’ve been playing Elden Ring Nightreign, and it’s… different. It’s probably going to split the FromSoftware fanbase, honestly. It’s not the super detailed, single-player RPG we’re used to from them. Instead, they’ve taken a lot of what made Elden Ring great and jammed it into a really fast-paced multiplayer game. It’s not as good as Dark Souls 3 or Elden Ring itself, but it’s not really trying to be. It feels like FromSoftware just letting loose and having some fun with their world.

Even though Forza Horizon 5 has been out for a while, it remains the best in its class thanks to its huge variety of things to do, comprehensive features, and excellent driving experience. It’s not without flaws – it can feel a bit too much at times, the computer-controlled opponents can be annoying, and the story and characters aren’t particularly strong. But when you’re driving, participating in events, and exploring the stunning open world, it’s hard not to enjoy its cheerful atmosphere and pure fun. It still feels brand new, even on PS5 despite arriving there later.
