The Last of Us Part 2 is an action-adventure survival horror game for PS4 which is developed by Naughty Dog and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment. The game is still very much about Ellie and Joel but in these edition players will be able to control Ellie instead of Joel. This edition also introduces new characters into the story.

God of War is a new beginning for the protagonist Kratos. He is living as a man outside the shadow of the gods. He ventures into the brutal Norse wilds with his son Atreus on his big quest. There’s intense combat, a powerful narrative and breathtaking graphics. From the marble and columns of complex Olympus to the rough forests, mountains, and caves of Pre-Viking Norse tradition, this is a particularly new territory with its own pantheon of creatures, monsters and gods. A new weapon and abilities hang on to the defining spirit of God of War while presenting an image of brutal conflict that forges new ground in the genre. God of War is developed by Santa Monica Studio and is published by SIEA. The game will be released in 2018.

Marvel’s Spider-Man is making its world debut for the PS4. It is an action-adventure game developed by Insomniac and published by SIEA. Sony Interactive Entertainment, Insomniac Games, and Marvel have come together to create a brand-new and reliable Spider-Man adventure. Marvel’s Spider Man has acrobatic abilities, inventiveness and web-slinging talent that the crawler is famous for, while also introducing elements never-before-seen in a Spider-Man game. This is an experienced Peter Parker, who is much more adept at fighting big crime in New York City. At the same time, he’s struggling to balance his chaotic personal life and career while the fate of millions of New Yorkers rests upon his shoulders. The game is filled with action set-pieces, a rich narrative and relatable characters. Spider-Man is expected to release in 2018.

Call of Duty: WWII is a first-person shooter game developed by Sledgehammer Games and published by Activision.

Authentic weapons and traditional run-and-gun action immerse you in a vast array of World War II-themed locations. War is an all-new game mode where players work as a team to defeat the enemy. This narrative-driven Multiplayer experience immerses players in iconic World War II locations. The players are allied and axis forces clash in team-driven assaults and defend missions for key strategic objectives. The game has already been released.

Detroit: Become Human is an adventure game developed by Quantic Dream and published by SIEA.
