It would be hasty to see in the presence of Horizon Forbidden West a sign that all the big titles from PlayStation Studios will land in the subscription one year after their release, especially since a game like Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is missing. the call. One thing is certain, the Guerrilla Games franchise will be doubly honored this month between the continuation of Aloy’s adventures and the release of Horizon Call of the Mountain, the big PS VR2 launch exclusive. Including Horizon Forbidden West in the subscription also responds to a certain strategy a few months before the release of Burning Shoresthe expansion expected on April 19.
Horror, fighting, action, RPG and giant insects
The sequel is not to be outdone with a certain number of safe bets stamped “it’s 7” such as Resident Evil 7, Tekken 7, Ace Combat 7 but also Borderlands 3. In the absence of new releases, the list includes fairly recent titles like Scarlet Nexus, Outriders and The Quarry. Japan is not forgotten with Earth Defense Force 5 and the trilogy of vaguely nostalgic RPGs from the Tokyo RPG Factory studio (I Am Setsuna, Lost Sphear and Oninaki) which is still looking for its first reference game. In addition, fans of narrative games and time loops are invited to take a close look at The Forgotten City. Similarly, we can only wish that studio Metronomik sees its rhythm-action game No Straight Roads receive more attention in the wake of the craze generated by Hi-Fi Rush.
It’s hard not to mention the revival of classic games with the arrival of two RPGs from the PS1 generation. For The Legend of Dragoon (a game dear to the heart of the illustrious Shuhei Yoshida of which he was the producer) as for Wild Arms 2, these versions are equipped with improved rendering, a rewind option, a quick save and custom video filters. Finally, still in the Premium department, remember that new trial versions appear regularly, including that of God of War Ragnarok which offers three hours of play.
