Last month offered a wave of adventure gaming options that grabbed players’ attention. But if you’re wondering which title truly stood out, some heavyweight contenders included “Assassin’s Creed Shadows,” “MLB The Show 25,” “Hitman World of Assassination” for PS VR2, and “Split Fiction.”
So, how does the selection process unfold? As each month wraps up, PlayStation Blog hosts a poll inviting you to cast your vote for the standout game debut. Once all the votes are in, they tally them up and reveal the winner across their social media platforms and blog.
And how exactly do you make your pick? Well, that’s entirely up to players. Imagine you could recommend just one game from the recent releases to a friend—your choice would serve as the perfect criteria. It’s important to note, however, that while fresh takes on classic games qualify, straightforward re-releases don’t make the cut. For instance, large-scale reimaginings like 2023’s “Resident Evil 4” and “Final Fantasy VII Remake” meet the mark.
As for selecting the games that make it to the voting round, that’s up to the PlayStation Blog’s editorial team. They sift through the month’s major releases and handpick the contenders to feature in the poll.
