For fighting game fans

MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls

The eagerly awaited MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls arrives on August 6, bringing an extensive roster of Marvel icons and cult heroes (and villains). What sets this game apart from its fellow brawlers is that each match is a 4v4 showdown – so players can bust out combos and strategies that make every fight a spectacle fit for the Grandmaster. And that lush, anime-inspired art style? ‘Nuff said.

For the military genius

STAR WARS® Zero Company™

Did you think the Republic got their strategy all wrong in the Battle of Geonosis? If you reckon you can lead a team better than General Kenobi himself, you’ll get your chance when STAR WARS Zero Company lands on August 27. Lead a team of customizable troopers, droids, scoundrels and maybe even a Jedi through heart-pounding, turn-based missions that react and change according to your decisions.

For large scale multiplayer

Hell Let Loose: Vietnam

The intense 50v50 skirmishes of Hell Let Loose: Vietnam are all about working together – so fall in line, soldier. Here, you won’t be charging around, trying to impress people with your kill/death ratio. You’ll be building tunnels, flying helicopters and driving patrol boats in order to secure victory across six distinct game modes. Report for duty on August 13.

For sports fans

MADDEN NFL 27

Running an NFL franchise used to be simple: the players do what they’re told. But in Madden NFL 27, arriving on PS5 on August 14, things have changed. Thanks to the new Persona Engine, players in Franchise mode have their own personalities. They won’t just accept what they’re given – they’ll make their own choices based on their goals, contract and talent. Think you can survive in the new world of football?

For something a bit different

Grave Seasons

Ah the life of a farmer: harvesting crops, romancing the locals with your rustic charm, investigating a series of grisly supernatural murders. That’s the cozy world of Grave Seasons, sprouting onto PS5 on August 14. Every decision matters in this slash-of-life agriculture sim. Get it wrong and it could mean the loss of an innocent life or worse: an unprofitable farm.
