PlayStation 4 has a number of games releasing this week. From Ghost Recon Wildlands to Nier Automata, this week is looking pretty good for Triple-A games on the console. Here are a few of the big ones:
2Dark
PS4 – Digital (3/10)
From the creator of Alone in the Dark, yes that Alone in the Dark, the one that started it all for survival-horror, comes a new horror game of stealth and investigation. Wander the darkness and rescue the children from Gloomywood. Don't get caught by the murdering psychopaths, though! Find their secrets and seek retribution for their crimes.
This game is from the top-down perspective and is still very unnerving, proving that not every horror game needs to be a first-person 4K adventure to be good.
Disc Jam
PS4 – Digital (3/7 | Free for PS Plus this month)
Disc Jam is an action-sports game for 2-4 players. It's a mix of air hockey and tennis that can only be understood through experience. Retrieve and throw a glowing disc while using abilities to defend your end zone in this fast-paced game.
Lego Worlds
PS4 – Digital, Retail (3/7)
Lego Worlds has been in development for PC for a while now and hits the PlayStation market today! "Explore. Discover. Create. Together. Lego Worlds is an open environment of procedurally-generated Worlds made entirely of Lego bricks which you can freely manipulate and dynamically populate with Lego models." Lego Worlds, as one might expect, is a game about building. Build anything you can imagine. Items, vehicles, landscapes.
Lego Worlds aims to make anything possible.
NieR: Automata
PS4 – Digital, Retail (3/7)
NieR: Automata is the next hotly anticipated title from Square Enix. This action RPG takes place in the distant future. Invaders from another world attack without warning and to even the odds, a new breed of android infantry is created. NieR: Automata blends the action RPG genre with the storytelling that Square Enix is known for supporting.
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands
PS4 – Digital, Retail (3/7)
Ghost Recon Wildlands is an open-world stealth-action game. Like many Tom Clancy games, it focuses on strategy rather than guns-a-blazing. We've got a review round-up on the game already! It can be played solo or in four-player co-op. Take on the Santa Blanca Cartel in a way that you choose.
