On the same day, PlayStation 5 owners with a PlayStation Plus membership can play a terrifying apex predator in the open world (sea?) RPG Maneater.”
Shadow of the Tomb Raider
Shadow of the Tomb Raider is the thrilling conclusion to Lara Croft’s origin story. Developed by Eidos-Montréal and published by Square Enix, this action-adventure game takes players through the dense jungles of South America. Lara must race against time to stop a Mayan apocalypse, solving intricate puzzles and battling dangerous foes along the way. The game has been praised for its stunning visuals, immersive environments, and engaging storyline. Players can expect a mix of exploration, combat, and stealth, making it a must-play for fans of the series.
Greedfall
Greedfall, developed by Spiders and published by Focus Home Interactive, is an action RPG that transports players to a 17th-century fantasy world. The game is set on the island of Teer Fradee, where players take on the role of De Sardet, a diplomat seeking to find a cure for a mysterious plague. Greedfall offers a rich narrative with multiple branching storylines, allowing players to shape the world and its inhabitants through their choices. The game features a deep character customization system, a variety of combat styles, and a unique blend of magic and technology. With its intricate world-building and compelling characters, Greedfall provides an immersive RPG experience.
Maneater
For PlayStation 5 owners, Maneater offers a unique and thrilling experience. Developed by Tripwire Interactive, Maneater is an open-world RPG where players control a shark seeking revenge on the humans who killed its mother. The game is set in the Gulf Coast’s diverse and dangerous waters, where players must survive, evolve, and become the ultimate apex predator. Maneater combines elements of exploration, combat, and survival, with a darkly humorous narrative. The game has been praised for its innovative gameplay mechanics and engaging storyline, making it a standout title for PS5 owners.
These three titles offer a diverse range of gaming experiences, from the action-packed adventures of Lara Croft to the rich, narrative-driven world of Greedfall, and the unique, predatory gameplay of Maneater. PlayStation Plus members are in for a treat this January, with something to suit every gaming preference.
