<p><a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/monster-energy-supercross-the-official-videogame/">The official Monster Energy Supercross game</a> gets a sequel and it's still about as...decent as the last one. After a passable but lackluster debut in 2018, this year's installment has a slew of new features.

It has a playscore of 7.41 on the PS4, 6.93 on the Xbox One, and a Provisional score of 7.68 on the Switch.</p>

<h2>24. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/olliolli-switch-stance/">OlliOlli: Switch Stance</a></h2>

<p>Still considered one of the most addicting sidescrolling sports platformers on the 3DS, Olliolli skates into the Switch with this twofold bundle. Switch Stance will include the first game as well as the equally exciting sequel, Welcome to Olliwood. While it's been criticized for a half-pipe learning curve, it still stands as an excellent, if not masochistic, a platformer for the Switch, with a Provisional playscore of 7.72.</p>

First released in 2015, this switch port reintroduces us to Wilbur, Ivo, Nate, and Critter as they embark on quests in a magical world of war, romance, and political intrigue.

<h2>22. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/yakuza-kiwami/">Yakuza Kiwami</a></h2>

<p>The remake to <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/sega/">SEGA</a>'s open-world action adventure set in Japan. Once a PlayStation exclusive, it finally comes to the PC to positive reviews. A remake of the PlayStation 2 game, this port has brought some of its age along with it. Fortunately, it doesn't steal much from the spotlight of its original charm. Adding some tweaks to liven up an already awesome game, it's still a pretty impressive port, and it earns a rating of 7.77.</p>

<h2>21. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/city-of-brass/">City of Brass</a></h2>

<p>Jumping off from itchy trigger fingers, this title from <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/uppercut-games/">Uppercut Games</a> aimed to put your lightfingered-ness to the test. From the senior developers of <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/bioshock/">Bioshock</a>, this first-person action adventure was first released on the PC and consoles where it was mostly panned for its hefty price tag and iffy controls.

<p>The latest installment of <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/bandai-namco-entertainment-inc/">Bandai Namco</a>'s hit post-apocalyptic JRPG brings us to an unrecognizable Earth. Populated by hostile Aragamis, it's once again our task to rid home of the invading threat. The curtain call to a popular series, it's not the most memorable ending.

Already a captivating 2D Fighter, experience it all on the Switch with a Provisional playscore of 8.07.</p>

<h2>14. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/devotion/">Devotion</a></h2>

<p>Here's a controversial one. A horror game from a Taiwanese developer, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/redcandlegames/">Red Candle Games</a>, Devotion has been scaring people shitless on Steam since its very recent release. While it has earned acclaim from various reviewers for its well-paced scares and tight story, Devotion sadly disappeared off the face of Steam since its Winnie the Pooh meme sparked a backlash from Chinese gamers. Probably aware of its mocking undertones against sitting president Xi Jinping. Currently unavailable on Steam, if you're looking for a good scare, it's out there online, with a Provisional playscore of 8.08.</p>

<h2>13. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/eastshade/">Eastshade</a></h2>

<p>It looks like it all turned out decent for Far Cry's latest installment--at least on some of the platforms. It's set in the same Hope County we knew from <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/far-cry-5/">Far Cry 5</a> - albeit with a nuclear blossom 17 years after. Most of the concern pre-release was about rehashed mechanics and sights. Some of those did come true as New Dawn is packed with the same, familiar <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/far-cry/">Far Cry</a> gameplay, with some new features attached. The consensus seems to be that if you loved Far Cry 5, and wanted, it's still worth the pickup. It has a playscore of 8.14 on the PS4, 7.73 on the Xbox One and 7.49 on the PC.</p>

<h2>11. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/3ds/etrian-odyssey-nexus/">Etrian Odyssey Nexus</a></h2>

Top 25 NEW Games Released in February 2019

25 Best New Android Games of February 2019

<p class="mdc-typography--body2">In 2018, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/fireproof-games/">Fireproof Games</a> graced mobile gamers with <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ios/the-room-old-sins/">The Room: Old Sins on iOS</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/android/the-room-old-sins/">Android</a>, another installment of their award-winning puzzle-adventure series. Previous The Room games received numerous awards not just for the challenging puzzles but also the ingenious ways they utilize touch functions on mobile devices. Old Sins is no exception.</p>

<p class="mdc-typography--body2">Raine Colubio, whatoplay’s Community Manager, had the opportunity to interview <strong>Barry Meade</strong>, one of the founders of Fireproof Games.</p>

<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Raine</strong>: Hello Barry. Thank you so much for giving us the time to talk to you about the original The Room trilogy and the new Old Sins. Fans, me included, waited for its release and it was every bit as good as expected. The first three The Room games were interconnected -- following the same story. However, Old Sins while still in the same universe, has its own storyline. Will it be followed by a couple more games?</p>

<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Barry</strong>: We don’t feel like we’re finished with The Room yet so yes, we expect more games to come in the future. As for stories, we would only look back to an older story if we thought we had something cool to add to it. We enjoyed making an original story for The Room: Old Sins and in a similar way I expect we’ll continue to give each new game its own flavour.</p>

<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Raine</strong>: The first game of the trilogy was released on the Nintendo Switch last year. Are games 2 and 3 following anytime soon?</p>
 
<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Barry</strong>: We’d love to put all the Room games on Switch as the platform is such a natural home for The Room’s kind of gameplay. It all depends on the sales of the first game however – if enough people buy it, we’ll put as many games as we can on Switch!</p>

<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Raine</strong>: The 3D puzzles of the whole series are one-of-a-kind and among the best in mobile platforms. Are there plans to expand to a full VR experience?</p>

<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Barry</strong>: Honestly, we’ve always wanted to make a VR-only Room game and we’re constantly looking for ways to make it happen. As far as we’re concerned The Room has the potential to be one of the very best VR games so I’m pretty sure sure one day it will, I just can’t say exactly when.</p>

<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Raine</strong>: What can we expect from Fireproof games? Are you currently working on a game outside of the The Room? </p>

<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Barry</strong>: Fireproof are always dreaming up new game ideas outside of The Room! We have a few ideas that we already like the look of and as a team we like to be experimental where we can, so I would definitely say there are non-Room games in our future.</p>

<p class="mdc-typography--body2">It is truly exciting to see where Fireproof games will take us next, whether we’ll be once again trapped in another Room installment, or be it another game entirely.  This is a game studio to look out for not only on mobile, but potentially the other platforms as well.</p>


Barry Meade, one of the founders of Fireproof Games, shares plans for more The Room titles, virtual reality, the Nintendo Switch and the future of the award-winning indie studio he cofounded.

<h2>10. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/yiik-a-postmodern-rpg/" title="YIIK: A Postmodern RPG on PC">YIIK: A Postmodern RPG</a></h2>
	
<p>Getting mixed reviews on Steam, and some decent ratings from critics, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/ackk-studios/">Ackk Studios</a>' <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/indie/">indie</a> <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/rpg/">RPG</a> laden with hipster vibes is a polarizing at best. Harking back to the 1990s with its visuals and characterization, you either get it or you don't. Y2K brands itself as a surreal <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/jrpg/">Japanese-style RPG</a>, becoming obvious with their heavy handed references to the quirky, witty, and underrated Mother series--or Earthbound for the North American fans. 
</p>
<p>Telling the story of a liberal arts major, Alex, and his friends through visual novel style and JRPG like combat, you can expect Y2K to be easy on whatever low-end laptops and desktops you have. Requiring only 2gigs of RAM and the basic Intel Graphics, you can experience its unique offering of turn of the century angst and dialog.</p> 

<p>Not exactly the most universally praised title, you can at the very least, find out for yourself. It has a provisional playscore of 7.33
</p>

<h2>9. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/the-eternal-castle-remastered/" title="The Eternal Castle [REMASTERED] on PC">The Eternal Castle [REMASTERED]</a></h2>


<p>Obnoxiously plastering REMASTERED onto its title, Eternal Castle markets itself as a remake of a 1987 title of the same name. Nobody's entirely sure if there was such a game but, for the most part, the consensus about the game is, fortunately, it's pretty good--remake or not. With its bright pixel environments, Eternal Castle plays at a steady 18 frames per second. Before anyone of you gets disappointed, that's how it was intended to be, and that's exactly how it played on our low-end devices. 
</p>
<p>Rendered with computer generated animation, the game's visuals definitely looks rough, which only adds to the believability of its supposed retro, 1980s origins. Telling the tale of a world post AI using colorful and purposive silhouettes, Eternal Castle is an enjoyable package of sights, sounds, and story.</p> 

<p>Whether or not it's a remaster, what's important is it's here, it's decent, and it works. It has a playscore of 7.77
</p>
<h2>8. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/spinnortality/" title="Spinnortality on PC">Spinnortality</a></h2>


<p>Looks like cyberpunk is a huge trend among this list of low-spec games. This one from developer <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/james-patton/">James Patton</a>, on the other hand, is less action-packed shooting sequences, and more mindful destruction. A <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/simulation/">cyber simulation</a> at its heart, Spinnortality lets you play the other side of the revolution coin by putting you at the heart of an evil global megacorporation. 
</p>
<p>Mastermind stock market crashes,  forward automation in place of human workers, or rig the next developing nation's elections--all with a click of a button. All of this is presented in their stylish UI, with sleek maps and menus, that never fail to tell you the news and updates of your latest bad deed. Overlooking the whole world in one place, it leaves whatever disastrous consequences to your imaginations, making it an incredibly light game for your system.</p> 

<p>A portable showcase of corporate's dark side, it has a provisional playscore of 7.79
</p>
<h2>7. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/wargroove/" title="WarGroove on PC">WarGroove</a></h2>

<p>From the publishers behind the adorable indie farming simulator, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/stardew-valley/">Stardew Valley</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/chucklefish-games/">Chucklefish</a> comes out of their picturesque farms and into the world of <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/turn-based/">turn-based tactics</a>. Inspired by the 2001 tactical classic, Advanced Wars, they bring back their signature retro pixel aesthetics to reintroduce the turn-based genre through their detailed sprites, memorable characters, and inviting storyline. 
</p>
<p>While some games in the art style might be a little taxing on graphics, WarGroove is decently optimized for low-end devices, running smoothly at 60 frames per second with no graphical tweaks needed. Paired with Chucklefish's style is an equally mesmerizing soundtrack to accompany the game's many campaigns.</p> 

<p>Far from perfect, WarGroove is a recent but hefty addition to any turn-based fan's library. Supporting cross-platform play, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/online-multiplayer/">online multiplayer</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/local-coop/">local co-op</a>, and a comprehensive level editor that lets you create maps and cutscenes, it’s a well-deserved playscore of 8.09
</p>
<h2>6. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/pikuniku/" title="PikuNiku on PC">PikuNiku</a></h2>

<p><a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/devolver-digital/">Devolver</a>'s got some of the most stylish titles in the indie lineup but one of the best ones for your potato PCs is this quirky <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/puzzle/">puzzle</a> <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/adventure/">adventure game</a> from <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/sectordub/">Sectordub</a>. Much like most indie titles, Pikuniku commits to naive minimalism with their simple hues, flat geometric shapes, and wobbly-legged characters.</p> 

<p>Going ahead into the important stuff, Pikuniku's gameplay stays at a pretty steady 60fps, except for a few hiccups in a some areas. It's visuals isn't too far from what you would expect from today's crop of mobile games, but this game one-ups all of them simply by the charm of the execution. 
</p>
<p>Simplistic and occasionally aimless as it is, it never feels cheap. Despite sticking with <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/platformer/">traditional platforming</a>, you never know what to expect from it as you jump from one vague objective to the next.</p> 

<p>A light, mixed bag of pure delight, this might be the adorable albeit short title you need on your PC, with a playscore of 8.11
</p>

<h2>5. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/becalm/" title="Becalm on PC">Becalm</a></h2>

<p><a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/colorfiction/">Colorfiction</a>’s <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/free/">free-to-play</a> <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/casual/">casual game</a> isn’t really much of a game. It’s an adventure that involves no gameplay at all. Becalm introduces you to a literal calming experience as you drift through magical waters. 
</p>
<p>It’s dreamy watercolor aesthetics bring life to multiple biomes and offer a unique experience for players who just don’t want to kill monsters and do silly quests. Simply use your mouse and voyage across its picturesque ocean. 
</p>
<p>As a visual experience, it does take up a lot of GPU and PC energy. So as you are at the mercy of the wind and casting adrift on your sailboat, the game fluctuates between 23 to 30 fps throughout.</p> 

<p>It has a provisional playscore of 8.17 
</p>

<h2>4. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/catherine-classic/" title="Catherine Classic on PC">Catherine Classic</a></h2>


<p>Before Full Body comes out on the Xbox One and PlayStation 4, this original version of the adventure-puzzler from <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/atlus/">ATLUS</a> is about to steal your heart, in a different way. It’s unlike any other game from the developers. You don’t fight demons, talk to them, or have a party member fighting in the name of friendship. But your choices will really matter in this game. 
</p>
<p>Play as Vincent, a normal man trapped in a nightmarish curse after meeting a mysterious girl named Catherine. Aside from that, you patch things up with your fiance, a Katherine with a K, in its choice-driven scenarios. Gameplay involves running away from demonic creatures, all while you move blocks strategically to climb the top in order to wake up from this nightmarish world. 
</p>
<p>We played this game on its default settings. The game runs pretty well, surprisingly. For low-spec gaming, you need to put your resolution at 1280 by 720. Enabling depth of field, bloom, blur, and anti-aliasing will give you a good framerate average of 44 fps.</p> 

<p>It receives a playscore of 8.20 
</p>
<h2>3. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/takanaria/" title="Takanaria on PC">Takanaria</a></h2>

<p>You gotta love pixel-indie games for their low-budget charm. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/crownbird/">Crownbird</a>'s simple game doesn’t have any story to complete and no hack and slash stylish combat. It’s an adventure game that takes you to a Greek-inspired island with a ton of new things to discover. 
</p>
<p>Enjoy its beautiful pixel scenery and take control of Anensi, a botanist, and Yaful, a manager of an island in Takanaria. It’s a short game that requires no intense dedication. Dialogue is kept simple and it feels like a young developers’ dream coming true. It’s art and it clearly shows that it’s made with passion. The game runs very well, of course, on our powerful PC. 60fps never felt this good on a pixel art game.</p> 

<p>It has a provisional playscore of 8.26 
</p>

<h2>2. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/unsung-warriors-prologue/" title="Unsung Warriors: Prologue on PC">Unsung Warriors: Prologue</a></h2>

<p>We adore indie games on this list. It’s the perfect genre when it comes to low-spec gaming. You don’t need a fancy graphics card, a shiny RGB motherboard, or a huge monitor that supports 4K. All you need is the time and place to play this lovely action-adventure game from <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/osarion/">Osarion</a>. 
</p>
<p>Set in the Europe-inspired Iron Age, fight your way past a vicious horde of enemies and evade traps. Explore an ancient crypt and uncover its secrets. It’s a game that can be played <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/single-player/">solo</a>, or with a friend. 
</p>
<p>We tried it on our very reliable Whatoplay PC and yes, it runs pretty smoothly. It’s a good-looking game that consistently gives us 60 frames per second. You just gotta love these kind of indie games because there’s not much to worry about optimizations. You could say that they really are the ‘unsung heroes’ of this modern era of gaming.</p> 

<p>It receives a rating of 8.84

Set in a mysterious below-zero planet, try to make it out alive by finding the necessary tools for your escape. 
</p>
<p>Set in first person mode, submerge into this unknown ocean and encounter friendly AND deadly creatures of the deep. Below Zero is set in a freezing extraterrestrial planet, try to survive its unpredictable ecological mess by finding the right materials, resources, and tools. 
</p>
<p>As an Early Access Game, it’s almost unplayable. But don’t worry, you just need to sacrifice a few resolutions and some graphical quality changes in order to play it smoothly. Decrease it to 1024 by 768 and you’ll get an acceptable 22 to 28 FPS. Besides, it’s still an early access game so there’s more room to improve!</p>

Top 50 Best Nintendo 3DS Games Ever Released [2019 update]

<p class="mdc-typography--body2">In 2018, the gaming community was made richer with <strong><a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/gris" title="GRIS">GRIS</a></strong>, the first title released by Barcelona-based indie suite, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/nomada-studio/" title="Nomada Studio">Nomada Studio</a>. It receive several awards including our very own <a href="https://whatoplay.com/awards/2018/pc-indie/">2018 Game of Year Award for Indie PC titles</a>. GRIS rise to critical success and popularity doesn't come as a surprise considering the team behind the studio. The studio was founded by Ubisoft alumni <strong>Adrian Cuevas</strong> and <strong>Roger Mendoza</strong> in partnership with distinquished artist <strong>Conrad Roset</strong>.</p>

									<p class="mdc-typography--body2">Conrad, the creative director of GRIS,  was responsible for the game's ethereal visuals -- the part praised by both critics and gamers. Raine Colubio, whatoplay's Community Manager, had the opportunity to chat with Conrad about GRIS.</p>

									<figure>
										<img src="https://cdn2.whatoplay.com/blog/gris-visual.jpg" alt="GRIS on PC and Nintendo Switch">
									</figure>

									<p class="mdc-typography--body2">When asked about the transition from illustration to interactive art, the differences between the two media and all the associated challenges, this is what Conrad has to say:</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Conrad:</strong> It actually felt pretty natural. There were a few problems, especially balancing performance and practicality with artistic vision. This has been a very work and time intensive project. My creative process usually starts with a great deal of documentation. I look for videos, films, pictures, etc. to define the style of my work. In Gris this was done by all of the art team for about half a year. Then there's a stage of concept and we go from there to the definitive approach. I have always played videogames and I just asked myself "Why don't I make my own?". Not too long after that I met Adrian and Roger though a common acquaintance and soon we were developing a prototype.</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"> <strong>Raine:</strong> GRIS is such a beautiful game, visually, aurally, and the subtle story really resonated with a lot of the players. During the Reddit AMA with Roger and Adrian, they mentioned that the ‘feel’ of GRIS was inspired by <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps3/journey/">Journey</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/inside/">INSIDE</a>, some Studio Ghibli films, and old school Disney films. Is this same true for your art style?</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Conrad:</strong> My two main references during my career as an illustrator have been <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egon_Schiele">Egon Schielle</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustav_Klimt">Gustav Klimt</a>. Though surely they haven't been the only ones, many of the forms that I consumed during my life helped consolidating my style, and those films and games are not exceptions.</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Raine:</strong> How did the game’s concept come to you? With the game’s level of attention to detail, was it difficult to pull off?</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Conrad:</strong> I saw a sketch from a coworker and the idea of a colorless world that recovered it's color as the player advanced in the game came to me. As I said, there were a few difficulties. I wanted the game to feel as a whole illustration, and for me it was hard to use repeated assets. In the end we struck that middle point, but it wasn't easy.</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Raine:</strong> Some would argue GRIS is more of an experience than a traditional game.  It’s more of a playable art piece.  We see a lot of that kind of game pop up in the recent years with the likes of Journey, Limbo, Monument valley, etc -- still, there are those who think the gameplay can get a tad bit boring since it’s not so adrenaline pumping as most games.  What do you say to that?  Also how do you feel about people calling your game interactive art?</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Conrad:</strong> Not every game is for everyone. It is perfectly normal for players who are looking for a more action packed experience to feel so, we are not trying to tell anyone what they should think about GRIS. We just say what we have to say in it, and then let the public decide what it means for them.</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Raine:</strong> At the end of the day, GRIS was an amazing success, and so many people resonating with it -- especially because it’s so beautiful, how does this make you feel?</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Conrad:</strong> We didn't expect this overwhelmingly positive response, but we are certainly not complaining! It is really heartwarming for us to see how so many people love it! It is an honor and a pleasure.</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Raine:</strong> Our community in YouTube and Facebook has been wanting to ask these questions. Are there any sequels in the horizon? Or a DLC, perhaps?</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Conrad:</strong> None at all! GRIS is a completed work, there's no need for those.</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Raine:</strong> It’s currently only available on the PC and Switch, will there be a PS4 or Xbox  One version soon?</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Conrad:</strong> There's not a PS4 or xBox release planned, but in the future, who knows? We certainly aren't closing any doors!</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Raine:</strong> What’s next for Nomada Studio?</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Conrad:</strong> For now we rest, but soon we will come back with new ideas and projects!</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2"><strong>Raine:</strong> Lastly, what was your favorite part of GRIS?</p>
									<p class="mdc-typography--body2">Baring the ending, I'd say it's the moment after GRIS crosses the great sandstorm and enters the temple in the desert.</p>

Indie platformer GRIS is one of 2018's most beautiful games. Released on both the PC and Nintendo Switch, it garnered praises from both critics and gamers. whatoplay chats with Conrad Roset, the artist that created the visuals that defined the game.

<h2>1. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/days-gone/" title="Days Gone PlayStation 4">Days Gone</a></h2>

<p>	Just when we thought the zombie genre is literally dead, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/sie-bend-studio/" title="SIE Bend Studio">SIE Bend</a>'s latest work comes out to prove that it’s not the case and that the zombie genre keeps showing up to the latest games on the market. It even had its own HD reimagining with this year’s <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/resident-evil-2/">Resident Evil 2</a> reboot. 
</p>
<p>But as for Sony’s latest exclusive, it takes the Zombie genre to a whole new level. Set in a post-apocalyptic world where you play as Deacon St. John. A former outlaw who travels the barren United States with his badass motorbike. Explore the forsaken Pacific Northwest riddled with zombies called the “Freakers”. 
</p>
<p>It's also not a linear experience, and its stealth mechanics seemingly lets players survive on their own terms. As a biker, upgrade and repair using scraps from the environment. Although it suffered numerous delays, the game is finally coming out this April 26. 
</p>

<h2>2. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/concrete-genie/" title="Concrete Genie PlayStation 4">Concrete Genie</a></h2>

<p>Take a look at one of the best PS4 exclusive you probably haven't seen yet. While it's an admittedly low-key title from <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/pixelopus/" titl="Pixelopus">Pixelopus</a>, Concrete Genie is anything but lackluster. An action-adventure game about a lone teenager with a knack for graffiti, Concrete Genie shows off a world that injects dazzling magic into his otherwise dreary reality. From what we see, it's already an artistic feat, with art styles, animations, and music that blend together into one atmospheric experience. 
</p>
<p>Talking about themes of bullying and escapism through emergent puzzle gaming, Ash--it's the main character--goes on to solve the environmental riddles using the monsters that he draws and breathes life into. It's not exactly groundbreaking, but the game makes up for it with the utter beauty of Ash's creations that will make you keep screenshots of everything. Great for that chill puzzle solving, it comes out this spring. 
</p>

<h2>3. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/medievil/" title="MediEvil PlayStation 4">MediEvil</a></h2>

<p>A game all about reanimating the dead, the 1998 classic action-adventure also gets a new lease on life in this ground-up remake. Already past resurrection with its 2005 reimagining for the PlayStation portable, this remake for the PS4 is leaps ahead in terms of graphics and gameplay. In their Halloween trailer last October 2018, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/sony-interactive-entertainment/" title="Sony Interactive Entertainment">SONY</a> shows off just how much has changed between the old game and the new. 
</p>
<p>With its 4K resolution support, the skeletal knight looks as good as new in his clear as day nighttime environments. For the uninitiated, MediEvil follows the story of the knight, Sir Dan, as he battles against an evil sorcerer, a hundred years after his death on the battlefield. This story follows a slew of exciting hack and slash action that would put <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps3/dark-souls/" title="Dark Souls PS3">Dark Souls</a> to shame--if Dark Souls existed in the 90s. A veritable treat for fans of the series, it's time for our inner children to return to Gallowmere once it releases sometime this year.

<p>One half of the duo that brought us "Rick and Morty", Justin Roiland teams up with <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/squanch-games/" title="Squanch Games">Squanch Games</a> to bring the world a new home for absurdist adventures. And for anyone who enjoyed the series, the look and feel of this 3D virtual reality world have pretty much the same energy as the TV--although less of their bleak and mundane earth world, and more of their interdimensional cosmos. Some of the series’ cast also lent their familiar voices to make the world feel more alive.
</p>
<p>From their demo, it looks like they'll be more irreverent jokes, 4th wall breaking, and hilarious commercials in this title too. Playing as both chairworshipping Chairorpean and Trover, the focus for its creators has been to deliver an immersive experience, whether on the VR or in the traditional format--and you can be sure there's a meta comedic moment for that one too. With no release date yet, we'll have to wait and see what else is in store for us sometime this year.

<h2>5. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/wild/" title="Wild PlayStation 4 game">WiLD</a></h2>

<p>The man behind the cult success that was <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps3/beyond-good-and-evil-hd/" title="Beyond Good and Evil PS3">Beyond Good and Evil</a>, Michel Ancel's name has been equated with greatness, so much so that anything he makes is a sure-buy. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/beyond-good-and-evil-2/" title="Beyond Good and Evil 2 upcoming ps4">But, with Beyond Good and Evil's prequel of sorts already on the horizons</a>, it looks like the long-promised WiLD has been put on the back burner. Announced at Gamescom 2014 with a spectacular trailer, Ancel's WiLD promised a procedurally generated survival game where we get to take control of all the animals and use it to fight against other tribes. 
</p>
<p>Paired with online play and a massive open world, it was definitely an ambitious premise that got everyone hooked. Aside from a few snippets from two years ago, and some teasers from Ancel's Instagram, there's really not much news on the game. On the other hand, at least we know this PS4 exclusive, though still in its early stages, is coming for us. Someday soon, we hope.

<h2>6. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/deep-down/" title="Deep Down PlayStation 4 game">Deep Down</a></h2>

<p>	If anyone remembers that Dark Souls-like game <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/capcom/" title="Capcom">CAPCOM</a> made, it’s Deep Down. Still a working title, this adventure shares similarities to both <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps3/dragons-dogma/" title="Dragon's Dogma">Dragon’s Dogma</a> and Dark Souls, the game sticks to the third-person action-adventure but with a greater focus on co-op multiplayer. 
</p>
<p>It’s a dungeon-crawling experience that enables players to roam around its medieval fantasy world slaying monsters and unlocking secrets. It’s set in the year 2094 and it tells the story of a group known as the Ravens tasked to recover historical memories by touching ancient objects. The game is still deep in development (no pun intended) and unfortunately, the release date is still a mystery. 
</p>

<h2>7. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/ghost-of-tsushima/" title="Ghost Of Tsushima PlayStation 4">Ghost Of Tsushima</a></h2>

<p>	From the guys that gave us the award-winning inFAMOUS series comes a brand new IP that exudes a strong Japanese machismo.

Set in a third-person perspective, players roam around the world taking missions and interacting with the environment. Use the game’s grappling hook feature to traverse seamlessly from point A to B.

<p>	PlayStation 4’s new playground of creativity is developed by the guys behind <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps3/littlebigplanet/" title="Little BigPlanet ps3">LittleBigPlanet</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/vita/tearaway/" title="Tearaway psvita">Tearaway</a>. Dreams is different compared to <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/mediamolecule/" title="Media Molecule">Media Molecule</a>'s other entries, it offers a surreal universe for players to play and enjoy.

<h2>9. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/erica/" title="Erica PlayStation 4 game">Erica</a></h2>

<p>	When it comes to interactive stories, Sony excels at it. Notable games include <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/supermassivegames/" title="Supermassive Games">Supermassive</a>’s <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/until-dawn/">Until Dawn</a>. This genre of gaming presents a multi-faceted version of storytelling and gameplay. Some would involve players making tough choices, while others simply follow the story and listen to what the protagonists have to say. 
</p>
<p>Erica is something. Developed by <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/flavourworks/" title="Flavourworks">Flavourworks</a>, it follows the story of a young woman haunted by a traumatic childhood. It blurs the line between a game and interactive movies. Dive into a unique cinematic experience that throws you into a shadowy world of emotional storytelling.

<h2>10. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/final-fantasy-vii-remake/" title="Final Fantasy VII Remake on the PlayStation 4">Final Fantasy VII Remake</a></h2>

<p>The updates for this awaited remake were few and far between, making some of us wonder if it's gonna release at all. While <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/square-enix/" title="Square Enix">Square Enix</a> have set the record straight November last year, no official release date has been confirmed yet. What we can look forward to, however, is a refreshed and renewed adventure with Cloud Strife and his friends. 
</p>
<p>Dubbed as the Midgar Experience, this classic installment covered their fight against the company Shinra for the world's natural powers. A JRPG masterclass, this ground-up remake is reportedly built from the ground up--letting go of the pre-rendered environments of the 1997 title for the polygonal graphics of today. With this came a host of problems in development, particularly in the jump towards the action RPG format, which is a far cry from their turn-based origins. An exciting new take on a beloved JRPG classic, we'll have to stay tuned for the next announcement.
</p>

<h2>11. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/the-last-of-us-2/" title="The Last of Us Part 2 PlayStation 4">The Last of Us: Part II</a></h2>

<p>Only of one of <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/naughty-dog/" title="Naughty Dog">Naughty Dog</a>'s many PS4 exclusive hits, The Last of Us has made many of us emotional in-between the life-threatening escapades of an infected post-apocalypse. Now, with a brand new sequel finally in the works, the whole world's just waiting with bated breath. Unfortunately, we're all just huffing at this point, with not many details about the progress so far. 
</p>
<p>From what we know though, it will revolve around a decidedly more grown-up Ellie. The creative directive, Neil Druckman has said the second installment will be a tale of revenge. Who needs avenging, we are yet to find out. Druckmann has also recently hinted at a heart-wrenching scene on his Twitter account. This all gets a little worrying, considering we still don't know whether or not we'll see Joel in Part II. Promising more tears and adrenaline-pumping action, it's gonna be one hell of a new entry that sadly doesn't have a release date yet.
</p>

<h2>12. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/blood-truth/" title="Blood and Truth PlayStation 4">Blood & Truth</a></h2>

<p>If you enjoyed the brutal gangster experience in PlayStation VR Worlds' London Heist minigame, then you're going to love THIS. Expanding the premise of the London Heist into a full VR title, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/sie-london-studio/" title="SIE London Studio">Sony's own London Studio</a> presents us with an opportunity to take on John Wick-like experience by amping the excitement of their experimental demo. Not only does London look and feel the part in Blood & Truth, but shooting also does too. 
</p>
<p>The game attempts to simulate actual gun tactics, with realistic ammunition and reloads, giving players that action movie feel. For some gamers, though, this narrative VR shooter loses some of its allure when considering its lack of full locomotion. Following on the heels of <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/firewall-zero-hour/" title="Firewall Zero Hour">Firewall Zero Hour</a> and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/bravo-team/" title="Bravo Team">Bravo Team</a>, Blood & Truth might have some difficulty competing. Still, it's a promising shooter for anyone looking for that definitively British tone. No release date yet.
</p>

<h2>13. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/star-child/" title="Star Child PlayStation 4">Star Child</a></h2>

<p>First presented in 2017's Paris Games Week, this action-adventure wowed the masses with visuals that were nothing less than stunning. Reportedly a VR game from <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/playful-corporation/" title="Playful Corporation">Playful Corp</a>, the folks behind the playground platformer, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/luckys-tale/" title="Luckys Tale PC">Lucky's Tale</a>, Star Child keeps the spirit of their previous platforming hits in the immersive world of VR. Described by one fan as a RiME meets Metroid, Star Child is a beautiful-looking narrative adventure that puts to use the powers of the VR platform. 
</p>
<p>Revolving around Spectra and her companion, help the stranded friends fight alien entities by controlling the world around her. Between this intriguing premise and the masterfully crafted announce trailer, it's no wonder the fans were abuzz about this upcoming PlayStation 4 exclusive. Like the other upcoming games in this list, the updates are few and far between. Thankfully, Playful's CEO squashed all speculations about its cancellations. So, we know it's coming but when exactly that will be, we don't know.

<h2>14. <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/death-stranding/" title="Death Stranding PlayStation 4">Death Stranding</a></h2>

<p>Kojima-san’s latest videogame after his days in <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/konami/">Konami</a> is something we’re not ready. This brand new IP puts together Kojima’s love for hard science fiction mixed with his appreciation for some great cinematic moments. Packing together iconic actors such as Norman Reedus, Lea Seydoux and Mads Mikkelsen. Together they tell a story that we still have no idea about. 
</p>
<p>Death Stranding takes players into the far future where a mysterious entity dominates humanity’s existence. But trailer after trailer, we still have no clue what Kojima means. First, we saw Norman Reedus delivering huge boxes, then we see a baby, then we see a gigantic monster with a hand for a face. We won’t get any answers as of the moment, and knowing Kojima, he’s just gonna keep doing that until we finally see the game come out sometime soon. 
</p>
<p>Release date is still a blur.

<p>Impressing on the PS4 and the PC, this indie platformer by <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/moppin/">Moppin</a> likewise made waves on the Switch--though with the lack of user reviews, it's a little less obvious.
