Now, let’s dive into the games!
It Takes Two | PS4, PS5
Expect an unforgettable co-op gaming experience with It Takes Two, a platform adventure that thrives on teamwork. You can choose to collaborate with a friend either on the couch or online through split-screen play. With the Friend’s Pass, you can invite a friend to join for free, teaming up in an array of playful, puzzling challenges. As Cody and May, a human couple transformed into dolls, you’ll navigate a whimsical world filled with surprises at every turn, aiming to mend the cracks in their marriage. Each level presents unique character abilities that mesh fantastically with the storyline. You’ll encounter hilarious scenarios—like battling hoodlum squirrels, piloting underpants, DJ-ing through a nightclub, and sledding inside a magical snow globe—making it a game full of heartwarming, uncontrollably funny moments.
Aliens: Dark Descent | PS4, PS5
Prepare to lead your squad against one of mankind’s most fearsome enemies in Aliens: Dark Descent. This real-time strategy game engages you with intense combat scenarios where controlling a team of seasoned marines is vital to halting a Xenomorph outbreak on Moon Lethe. Battle not only the notorious creatures but also operatives from the Weyland-Yutani Corporation along with never-seen-before Alien franchise enemies. Use your instincts to steer your squad through expansive environments, strategically dispatching tactics to counter adaptive foes, where a single misstep could mean permanent death.
Temtem | PS5
Venture into the Airborne Archipelago as an aspiring Temtem tamer, setting out on an epic quest to discover new creatures and forge lasting friendships. Roam the vast lands—including the island of Omninesia, the beaches of Deniz, and the rugged terrains of Tucma—as you capture and train Temtem, outsmart Clan Belsoto, and defeat eight Dojo Leaders in your quest to be the ultimate tamer.
