It may be worth it to hold out for PS5

Last week the much-anticipated launch of the new PS5 gaming console unveiled what many consider to not only be a greatly improved piece of hardware, but rather a leap forward into what the art form of games can be. 

The console itself received mixed reactions, but the revealing of game titles got even the most hardened critic drooling with excitement.

Horizon Forbidden West

Aloy goes west in the sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn, and this time she’s saving the future world from a mysterious plague that’s threatening the existence of all the things.

Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales

Miles Morales is saving the world his own way in his own Spider-Man game.

Oddworld: Soulstorm

Abe is back and still trying to make his people safe.

Stray

You play as a stray cat in a neon-soaked future world where humans have been replaced by robots and you just want to find your way home. I don’t need to explain myself. Look at her little backpack!

Resident Evil Village

Sjoe, Ethan just can’t seem to catch a break.

Godfall gameplay 

So, Godfall is all about becoming a godlike, unstoppable death machine. Nice.

NBA 2K21

Little Devil Inside 

Returnal

Stray

A personal favourite.

The launches just went on and on. I think 2021 is going to be one hell of a year for gaming. 2020 is a little shot so we aren't going to feel the real impact of these developments until we have all settled into the new world.
