Both the artistic and sound sections complement well a plot full of intrigue, with picaresque touches and starring a somewhat… different type of thieves.
The game is a combination of dungeon phases, with turn-based combat, and social phases.

7. The Last of Us Part II
The second part of The Last of Us is not without controversy, but it is undeniable that it is a notable title in several aspects. The graphic quality is one of the best we have seen in this generation, with cinematics that seem straight out of a movie. The gameplay takes a step further compared to the first part, although it is true that it does not innovate much.
The Last of Us Part II is a story of revenge, forgiveness and acceptance. It is a raw and wild game, with somewhat uncomfortable violence. You will find danger not only in the infected, but in the consequences of each character’s actions, which end in a whirlwind that destroys everything in its path. It may not appeal to everyone, but it is worth trying.
If you want to revisit the first part, don’t hesitate to play The Last of Us Remastered!
8. Ghost of Tsushima
Ghost of Tsushima is one of the most impressive games on Play 4 in terms of playability, graphics and sound. The story isn’t bad either!

After the attack, the protagonist burns with desire for revenge and to free the town from him. Even if it means fighting dishonorably according to the samurai code.
Ghost of Tsushima relies on action and combat focused on stealth. Movements and attacks must be calculated well, as any mistake can put you in a bind. The open world is very beautiful to explore. The game gives you the freedom to move on foot and on horseback, while you search for the next target to shoot down. Some final bosses are scary!
9. Resident Evil 2 Remake
The classic Resident Evils are beloved and masterpieces in the horror genre. It was difficult to bring a renewed version of 2 that would attract attention, but Capcom did it! Resident Evil 2 not only received a facelift, but some parts of the setting and gameplay were modified to give us a fresh experience.
You will be Leon or Claire in two types of scenarios that cover different portions of the plot, although with several common points. Zombies infest Racoon City and it is necessary to lock yourself in a police station. Sooner rather than later, the protagonists realize that nowhere is safe and that nothing is as it seems. If you dare to play it, cover your back!
10. Marvel’s Spider-Man
This Spider-Man adventure is one of the best you can enjoy in games based on this superhero.

As an action-adventure game, the game exceeds expectations. On a narrative and audiovisual level, there is great work to present a solid story that practically never falters.

Each story works like a minigame. Not only does the rules of the game change in each one, but the visual section adjusts according to the tone of the story. For example, one story unfolds as if you were interacting with comic panels, and in another you will be an animal. Highly recommended!

The story of Cloud and company is more impressive than ever, not only for jaw-dropping graphics, but for expanding portions of the original game. Barret, Aerith and Tifa are more endearing than ever, and the new content enriches the original experience.
Ignoring the controversial final section, Final Fantasy VII Remake is essential for every lover of the saga and JRPGs in general.

As with What Remains of Edith Finch, Journey is not exactly a long title. You will finish it in just two or three hours, but the trip (forgive the redundancy) is well worth it. And, although it is not mandatory to play, we recommend that you activate multiplayer, as you will meet other players along the way.
24. Spyro Reignited Trilogy
The cutest and smallest dragon of all returns! Spyro Reignited Trilogy is a remastering of the original trilogy that we were already able to enjoy on the first PlayStation. The finish is impeccable, with a very attractive and colorful visual section. The essence remains complete and, although it is easy, it is not so easy to achieve that 100%!
If you love platform games with their fair share of mini-games, Spyro Reignited Trilogy is a must-have. You’ll have around 20 hours of content, more than 30 if you’re looking to complete it.

Quantic Dream is a company that knows how to tell stories and integrate you with decisions and interactive scenes. In this aspect, Detroit: Become Human is impeccable. The game tells the story of three characters, Markus, Connor and Kara, who are very advanced androids very similar to humans.
The game touches on themes of emotions, with the premise that androids begin to develop them. For some, that’s a problem. Playing as these three characters, you must constantly make decisions and live with the consequences. A curious detail is that these characters can die, but the game will continue! In other words: think and decide well.
26. Alien: Isolation
With Alien: Isolation, you will experience the tension and fear of the movie Alien: The Eighth Passenger firsthand . In this game you will play the daughter of Ellen Ripley and you must investigate what happened on a space station. Unfortunately for her, there is an alien on the loose looking to eat her, and that’s not the only danger she will encounter!
Alien: Isolation mixes elements of horror, exploration and survival. It is essential to find resources and use stealth above all else. Do not do. Noise. Going unnoticed is essential for survival, as it is best to expend ammunition only in times of high need. The atmosphere of the game captivates you from minute one, thanks to great work on the sound and the play of lights.
27. Street Fighter V: Champion Edition

28. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice
From Software went from Dark Souls and Bloodborne to a game just as demanding and even more so, set in 16th century Japan. Unlike the company’s other games, this game has a greater focus on telling a story, since we control a predefined character. That does not mean that we cannot modify anything, since you will be able to unlock different abilities.
On the way to consummate revenge, you must face skilled samurai who are difficult to defeat. It’s vital to know when to dodge or block, and do it at the right time. You will need to spend the first few hours getting used to this detail because, in general, you cannot attack like crazy. It is a positive point because, thanks to it, you will feel like a true shinobi!
29. Titanfall 2
Titanfall 2 is an impressive shooter that contains a more than decent story mode and a hilarious multiplayer mode. The incentive of the game lies mainly in the agile control of the Pilot and the powerful weaponry of the Titan. The fact of being able to switch between one and the other throughout the games (as long as you unlock the Titan), creates a dynamic never experienced in another game.
If you are looking to play alone, you will have a few hours of fun. The single-player mode is spectacular in itself, but it acts more as a presentation of all the playable aspects that Titanfall 2 offers. The main focus of the game is multiplayer, as there are a dozen competitive and cooperative modes with which to play with other players . Better if you enlist with other friends!
30. Metal Gear Solid V: The Definitive Experience
Metal Gear Solid V is a somewhat controversial and somewhat repetitive game after 30 hours of play, but it is still a good title. It gives you the possibility of solving missions with stealth or with pure and simple action, and you can use a multitude of weapons and gadgets . The story is presented with Kojima’s famously long cutscenes, but luckily the playable portions are generous.
The most interesting point about this game is that while you watch the plot unfold through Miller, Ocelot, Big Boss, and Quiet, among others, you have a good amount of freedom to move around and complete tasks in the missions. Rescue prisoners, eliminate targets, extract materials, rebuild the Mother Base… there are quite a few things to do in MGS V!
