Skull & Bones (PS5)
Visually stunning and surprisingly content-heavy at launch for a live-service game, with a clear gameplay hook. The naval warfare genre may not grab everyone, but there are countless hours of fun for those who do get stuck into it.
Helldivers 2 (PS5)
Honestly one of the most fun multiplayer experiences we have had in a while. Frenetic gameplay, mind-blowing visual effects, and a great co-operative experience make this a must play shooter on PC and PS5.

Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League (PS5)
Suicide Squad marks a distinct change in style for Rocksteady after the Arkham games and while it's not perfect it does have plenty of redeeming qualities such a great dialogue, fun combat, and nicely varied abilities for the four characters. Will definitely benefit from future expansions as a live service game but the framework is certainly there.
