May is right around the corner, so let’s take a look at the games coming out during this lovely spring month!
Beyond: Two Souls
With Detroit: Become Human set to launch in less than a month, what better time to catch up with the work of veteran French studio Quantic Dream? Not only a technical showcase in its own right, Beyond: Two Souls not only raised the bar for true-to-life visuals in the last generation but also broadened the scope for interactive narrative in gaming. Featuring phenomenal performances throughout from A-list acting talent, and a complex web of branching narratives, few games combine such high production values with such nuanced narrative-driven gameplay.
Rayman Legends
One of the high watermarks for the 2D platforming genre, few games demonstrate a greater level of polish or more distinctive artistic direction that Rayman Legends.
Ubisoft Montpellier’s Rayman Legends combines everything the studio has learnt during two decades of development, bringing together a vast cast of playable characters, dozens of varied stages, incredible hand-drawn 2D visuals and a range of multiplayer options.
If you love varied platforming challenges, hunting for secrets or bouncing along to a mariachi-styled reimagining of Survivor’s Eye of the Tiger (think Guitar Hero meets high-speed platforming), then this might just be the very thing for you.
This month’s PlayStation Plus lineup also includes:
- Risen 3: Titan Lords, PS3
- Eat Them!, PS3
