VGChartz's Christian Evans: "There was a time when indie games were small and cheap, and nearly always in the shadow of the AAA colossus. These days, such can be their quality that the boundaries of difference between the two have blurred exponentially, to the point that every year the best indies are often measured against the best big studio titles — and for many of us an indie experience will still come out on top.
The indie space has never been so vibrant, always showcasing brilliance, whether that be through risk and innovation in efforts such as Immortality, or the modern imitation of beloved retro classics wonderfully seen in games like Chained Echoes. One only has to peruse some of the titles that didn’t make the final cut to gauge what an incredibly strong year it’s been once again for the indie scene, with the aforementioned titles missing out, along with the likes of Citizen Sleeper, Cult of the Lamb, and Rogue Legacy 2, to name only a few that deserve a mention. But as with any voting list there can only be one winner."
Love Contra? Love Vampire Survivors? Of course you do - in which case you should be getting involved in Vampire Survivors: Operation Guns.
All playable May 7.
i surprised to see Fifa 24 here for free for PlayStation plus am sure people are still buying the game with how big the Fifa games are.
Four games including one of the best selling and most popular sports games and you get to keep them as long as you have a subscription to the basic tier. This is an extremely high value month
What does games with gold give this month? I'm sure if anything at all, it's just a bunch of stuff that has already been on game pass for years.
This line up and I still see people complain about it at the blog.playstation.com... gamers these days...
I don't play all of them, but an amazing month!!
I have everything I want, but I am still overjoyed to see Tunic make the list. It's such a charming love letter to games of the past, and something anyone who enjoyed gaming in the '90s should absolutely check out. I mean, it even allows you to create an in-game manual that is reminiscent of those you'd read on the ride home.
Flat2VR Studios is currently working on PSVR2 versions of select PS5 games, possibly including Neon White.
Neon White in VR sounds like both a dream and a nightmare. It's a dream because it would look incredibly cool, but a nightmare because of how fast-paced and intense the game is. With its frenetic action, nausea could kick in pretty quickly.
Still, I hope it's true. The PS VR 2 is a solid piece of hardware, but it's lacking titles.
This is a brilliant idea for a studio. Focus on porting titles to VR, there are a lot of candidates.
What’s the point if Sony are opening the PC floodgates anyway? Everything will be compatible
