Ark: Survival Ascended | PS5
Prepare to build your tribe, tame and breed a vast array of dinosaurs and ancient creatures, and climb to the top of the food chain in a stunning new survival experience. Ark: Survival Ascended has been completely reimagined using Unreal Engine 5, delivering breathtaking visuals, advanced physics, and thoughtful quality-of-life improvements across the board.
Explore, craft, build, and battle your way through all of Ark’s iconic worlds, including Scorched Earth, Aberration, Extinction, Ark Genesis Part 1, Ark Genesis Part 2, and more. The game offers diverse multiplayer options: join public online servers with up to 70 players, host private sessions for up to 8 players, or enjoy local split-screen co-op with a friend. A new era of survival awaits, are you ready to ascend?
Balatro | PS5, PS4
An addictive poker-inspired roguelike deck builder where strategy, synergy, and high-stakes gameplay take center stage. Craft powerful combinations by playing illegal poker hands, unleashing game changing jokers, and triggering outrageous combos. Build unique synergies by blending traditional poker hands with one-of-a-kind joker cards, creating endless possibilities for varied strategies. Collect enough chips to outwit devious blinds, while uncovering hidden bonus hands and secret decks along the way. Every move counts as you edge closer to the ultimate challenge: facing the boss blind, defeating the final ante, and claiming victory. Are you ready to go all in?
Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun | PS5, PS4
Load up the Boltgun and plunge into battle headfirst! Experience a perfect blend of Warhammer 40,000, classic, frenetic FPS gameplay and the stylish visuals of fan-favourite 90’s retro shooters.
Play a battle-hardened Space Marine on a perilous mission across the galaxy, as they battle against the Chaos Space Marines and daemons of Chaos. In glorious boomer shooter style, unleash devastating Space Marine arsenal while blasting through an explosion of sprites, pixels and blood. Run, jump and charge across huge levels to shoot, shred and slice the worst heretics across the galaxy!
