And what is that quest, you may ask? Why, to fight against a world run by adults who have let their hearts grow cold, of course.
To do this, you enter a realm tied to each major antagonist's twisted psyche, facing down their literal demons. So yeah. One part Pokemon, one part high school simulator, one part Psychonauts, all backed by a groovy soundtrack. The original survival horror is back to reclaim its throne as one of PS4's best scarefests with this first-person reboot.
Resident Evil 7 is a complete reinvention for the series, drawing in the terror close with a new camera and a palette of fear that's very much aware of modern horror films.
The game follows Ethan as he searches for his missing wife in a Louisiana swamp, a trip that soon goes very wrong when the Baker family show up. This is a much more low-key, slow-burning sort of fear than the last couple of game's action blowouts, focusing on a more slasher movie-style pursuit through a large, crumbling house. But, despite the overhaul, things like inventory management, puzzles, weapons, and items still feel unmissably Resi. It's a great Resident Evil game, but more importantly, a great horror game in its own right.
Nier: Automata may not be the most expansive, content-filled, or open-ended RPG in the world or even on this list , but it's definitely the best game to star an android dressed in gothic Lolita fashion while waxing philosophical about the nature of humanity, morality, and free will.
Combat is fast, fluid, and satisfying, while a unique and award-winning soundtrack ranges from exciting to melancholy to mystical to inspiring. This is the type of game where you take side quests from a robot that models itself after early 20th century French philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre before flying off in your power armor to battle a giant kaiju machine with lasers and foot long katanas.
It's weird, wild, and not to be missed. The true successes of Uncharted 4 lie in the details. Oh, sure, you have the big action set-pieces that the series is known for, where everything hero Nathan Drake touches falls apart around him in Michael Bay levels of destruction. And the attention to detail in those moments - how wood splinters into pieces under gunfire, or how Nathan's clothing gets caked in mud during a high-octane car chase - certainly makes it shine as a bit of impressive tech to show off to your friends.
But it's how Uncharted nails the small moments that makes it truly great. For the first time in the series, Naughty Dog has given the series' characters some room to grow as actual people, filling in the details where you least expect them to, and these smaller moments make the big ones feel all that more impactful. As explosive as Uncharted 4 is, it's also deeply personal - and it's a hell of a showpiece for your PS4, to boot. Ghost of Tsushima takes an Assassin's Creed-style Japan, with a Red Dead Redemption 2-sized world, and blends in an entire library's worth of Akira Kurosawa movies to create the perfect swan song for the PS4.
It manages to give you a new love of feudal Japan, and with a world so full of things to do, every moment you spend in its world is a treat. This is a worthy swan song for the PS4, and a tribute to the Japanese culture it so clearly reveres. Sure, by now you've probably heard all the hype, and it might have even put you off slightly in that weird hipster way that hype always manages, but What Remains of Edith Finch is one of those beautiful reminders that games can make you feel everything.
Exploring her family home, the titular Edith Finch gradually uncovers the stories of the Finch's through the ages, each one opening up a new experience and story. From exploring a Halloween horror adventure in a graphic novel to simply flying a kite, every chapter is a new surprise.
To give away any more is to spoil the magic of this walking sim but yes, it will break your heart and make you cry, but only in the best possible way. What Remains of Edith Finch is a beautiful experience that never feels emotionally manipulative, only ever incredibly human, and a poignant reflection on the stories that make us who we are.
Even if we didn't always know it. Also: an unhealthy dose of first-person cat-stomping. Quite simply, it represents the definitive edition of the greatest open-world game ever made, which hold up well in Fortnite is the most fun you can have on PS4 for free - and I do mean totally free, because you don't even need a PS Plus subscription to play online. Fortnite's Battle Royale mode has taken the world by storm, enchanting players with intense shootouts and towering build battles as they compete to be the last of standing.
Regular developer updates add new weapons, modes, and thoughtful tweaks to baseline mechanics every week, keeping the game fresh even if you already have a few dozen wins under your belt. And don't forget about Save the World mode if you're in the mood for something more cooperative, though you will have to pay to play that one for now. If u play the game please go all in and read the lore, check the house, and immerse yourself.
The game can be as deep as u want it to be. Unfortunately, it even has saves now. No excuse not to dive in now. Whether u love Housemarque, roguelites, or intriguing science fiction, alien worlds, and psychological intrigue. Best in class 3D audio and DualSense support featured as well. Truly the best in-game audio I have ever heard.
When u feel rain through your controller and then thunder strikes your eardrums via 3D audio u will be in awe for a moment.
I was. This is the only game that made me really stop and notice the 3D audio. Really impressive that The Forest is still making these lists after being out for a few years.
I loved the game and am happy to see it still doing so well. Gaming is bigger than ever but also dumber. The influx of casuals has been felt for a while. Ffs Halo Infinite was voted GotY by fans for The Game Awards while just the multiplayer was even available and even that was merely in beta. In addition to underwhelming releases and games trapped in development hell, Ubisoft is now bleeding talent. In other words, things are seemingly about to get worse for the French games maker, who is reportedly set to evolve Far Cry with the next installment by blending the traditional format with a live-service format.
In other words, not only is Ubisoft about to take Far Cry in a new direction, but it's losing key talent in the process, all of which points towards a disappointing future for Far Cry fans.

After a long wait, the remake of Final Fantasy 7 revitalizes one of the most beloved JRPGs of all time in a mostly successful and engaging way. This new version of Midgard probably isn't just how your brain remembers it looking — it's much better, with a stunning, detailed, and immersive exploration of the steampunk city.
Since part one of 'Remake' subsequent releases will cover the rest of the original story takes place entirely within Midgard, Square Enix is able to really spend time with the city's ensemble cast, giving them more nuance and screentime to round out the adventure. And that's on top of its stellar combat system, a marriage of real-time and more tactical, turn-based systems to create something that's wholly unique and a joy to master.
Part 2 can't come soon enough. Overwatch earned Game of the Year from IGN in its launch year, sweeping the IGN offices with multiplayer matches after work and at lunches and sometimes during the workday that have continued in the months and years since.
Overwatch 2 is now in development, though it likely won't be released until at the earliest. Veldin, Rilgar, and other worlds are beautiful, Pixar-like environments with plenty to explore, and modernizations made to the gameplay make the adventure as fresh as ever. Zurkon to the Groovitron.

One of the most heart-wrenching and visually dynamic adventure games of the generation, What Remains of Edith Finch is a must-play.
Each remembrance transports you to their stories and subsequent deaths, with moments ranging from playing on swingsets to, quite literally, bouncing between comic book panels. Striking, stylish, and hauntingly beautiful, What Remains of Edith Finch is one of the best experiences to be had on PS4. It manages to reckon with this and then some, juggling delicate relationship dynamics with ridiculously fun action sequences and breathtaking vistas ripe for exploring and pillaging. Though it gets a little bogged down by an overly long final act, Uncharted 4 is still one of the best action-adventure games of all time, and one of the best PlayStation 4 games ever.
