In June 2022 in North America, Sony launched a revamped version of PlayStation Plus that combines the previous model with PS Now. Split into three tiers, subscribers who invest in PS Plus Extra or Premium gain access to a wide selection of PlayStation games. While the library has hundreds of PS4 titles, it also includes quite a few PlayStation 5 releases, something PS Now did not offer.

With each new month of additions, PS Plus Extra adds a couple of PS5 titles, ensuring the library continues to expand. So far, the selections have been decent, with a few drops even including Day One releases. Consequently, what are the best PS5 games on PS Plus Extra?

If available, links to a game's Amazon page will be included just in case someone prefers to own a physical copy. HowLongToBeat was used as a source for each game's length.

Horizon Forbidden West

The PS Plus Extra lineup for February 21, 2023, had its share of big names, and quite a few of these new additions to the tier came with native PS5 versions. Resident Evil 7, Scarlet Nexus, Outriders, and The Forgotten City are not only good games in their own right, but they also cover a wide range of genres and gameplay styles. As entertaining as those titles are, Horizon Forbidden West was undoubtedly the month's standout game.

The sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn is bigger and, arguably, better. In search of a way to save GAIA, Aloy heads west in pursuit of Sylens and becomes embroiled in a conflict between two tribes. Horizon Forbidden West has a massive and lavish open-world, fine-tuned combat, and epic enemy designs, particularly for the robotic dinosaurs. Narratively, the game delivers the goods as well, building nicely upon its predecessor's groundwork. Along with just being one of the best PS Plus PS5 games, HFW's debut might demonstrate how Sony plans to treat first-party exclusives moving forward.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart was one of the first projects to truly come across as a next-generation experience, and the game is still among the console's standard-setters. Insomniac has been on fire over the last few years, and while Spider-Man has hogged most of the spotlight, the studio regularly produces the goods whenever it returns to its other flagship IP.

Rift Apart is, fundamentally, just another Ratchet & Clank adventure that delivers exactly what most fans have come to expect from the franchise. Along with stunning graphics, the game has fast-paced and satisfying gunplay, enjoyable platforming, lavish worlds, and charming characters. Although not lacking in new ideas, including the introduction of a second playable character, Rift Apart mainly seeks to perfect the formula rather than reinvent it. The result is a polished, confident, and delightful third-person shooter.

Rogue Legacy 2

It took a while but Rogue Legacy 2 finally made its way to the PS5 and PS4 in June 2023, debuting directly on PS Plus Extra. On the surface, the sequel to 2013's influential roguelite might not seem to take all that many risks as it largely sticks to the same core formula; however, the game plays out like a perfected version of the original Rogue Legacy, which was and still is fantastic. As before, players are randomly assigned a class as they head into massive levels in search of loot and bosses. When death comes calling, they can pick from three new characters who will have different classes and personality traits. While they must start exploring from scratch, players can use their acquired loot to purchase upgrades, so they are not constantly returning to zero.

Rogue Legacy 2 emphasizes the differences between its classes way more than its predecessor, to the point that each one feels completely unique. Simply trying out the various options is fun, especially since most classes are fairly complex and take a while to master. Variety is also provided through the many traits, relics, and upgrades, all of which can greatly alter a build or run. The stages are expansive, ambitious, and detailed, ending with memorable boss fights that will test anyone's skills.

Doom Eternal

April 2023 was a good month for Doom fans as five games were added to PS Plus. Premium subscribers can check out the classics, starting from the 1993 original release and concluding with Doom 3; meanwhile, Doom Eternal joined the Extra tier. Id Software knocked 2016's Doom completely out of the park, and the developer could have simply opted to rethread the exact same ground for the sequel; thankfully, Doom Eternal carves its own identity.

While still ultimately the Doom everyone knows and loves, this entry shakes things up by emphasizing the Doom Slayer's range of motion, even including things like a grappling hook. These abilities work beautifully within combat, providing players with more options than ever before. Even with a fairly forgiving dodge function, Doom Eternal still packs a considerable punch, especially since ammo is reasonably limited. The campaign does include a few polarizing platforming and traversal sections, but they do not take much away from the overall experience.

Tchia

While PS Plus Extra has not had many Day One additions, the few games to make the cut have been of high quality. Tchia serves as a prime example of this trend, and the indie darling should not be skipped by anyone interested in not just open-world projects but adventure games in general. Awaceb's title drops players on a gorgeous tropical island that looks like paradise but comes with a fair few threats. While not devoid of a main campaign, Tchia is at its best when the story takes a backseat to exploration.

RELATED: Things Tchia Does Differently Than Most Other Open-World Games

The core mechanic involves Tchia temporarily jumping into the bodies of living creatures and inanimate objects. Along with playing a part in solving puzzles, this feature greatly changes the way the world is viewed and traversed. Tchia's unique ability is also at the heart of the combat system, which is simple but entertaining. While it might not have the name recognition of some other PS5 PS Plus games, Tchia is one of the service's highlights.

Humanity

Debuting directly on PS Plus Extra, Humanity might not make as wide of a Day 1 splash as Stray, but the puzzle game is nonetheless a big get for Sony's service. Cast as a dog that must shepherd humans across dozens upon dozens of levels, players spend their time setting up directions to try and keep the crowd safely moving along. Although this might sound simple in theory, Humanity consistently introduces new mechanics, ideas, and options to maintain a steady challenge.

Ultimately, this 2023 release is an acquired taste that won't hit the spot with everyone; however, any fans of puzzle games should give it a look. Humanity has an eye-catching look, deceptively deep gameplay, and surprisingly intriguing themes, especially for its genre.

Uncharted: Legacy Of Thieves Collection

PS Plus Extra launched with the PS4 versions of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and The Lost Legacy, but the PS5's Legacy of Thieves Collection was finally added as part of the subscription service's March 2023 lineup. Now, the last-generation iterations are still absolutely fantastic, comparing favorably with most titles released over the last 5 years. Consequently, the "remaster" package does not bring too many changes, although the ones that are implemented make enough of a difference to establish the Legacy of Thieves Collection as the definitive way to experience these two stories.

Fueled by the power of the PS5, Uncharted 4 and The Lost Legacy now support multiple performance modes, allowing players to decide whether to prioritize 4K or 60 fps. The visuals have also been tweaked ever so slightly to give both games an overall cleaner and more immersive presentation. These improvements enhance two titles that were already considered masterpieces.

The Quarry

Supermassive Games has amassed an impressive horror resume, and most of the developer's terrifying games are on PS Plus. The Quarry is an easy recommendation for fans of Until Dawn, and while it does not quite reach the same heights as the latter, the title is still a passionate ode to classic slasher flicks. That said, someone's mileage with the 2022 horror game will come down to their appreciation for the overall genre and their willingness to just sit back and watch things unfold similar to a film.

The Quarry centers around a group of teenagers who spend a night at the eponymous location. Naturally, they are not alone, and survival is anything but guaranteed. Players make decisions that directly impact the story and even determine who will live to see another sunrise.

Deathloop

Deathloop is an FPS built upon a time loop concept. Players are cast as Colt, an assassin who must take out eight targets within a single day. If he fails, the day restarts from scratch, and this reset is part of the story and not just a mechanic. Producing Dishonored and Prey, Arkane is known for its creative shooters that blend enjoyable gunplay with versatile powers and stealth, all things that are part of Deathloop's blueprint.

RELATED: Every Weapon In Deathloop, Ranked

An argument could be made that the 2021 release is Arkane's strongest effort to date, particularly in terms of gameplay. Designed to be replayed, Deathloop has a puzzle-style element to it as players gradually accumulate information as they pave their way to a perfect run. The story is also quite good and develops nicely as the campaign progresses.

Kena: Bridge Of Spirits

AA gaming has been on the decline since the end of the PS3 era, and only a handful of modern releases fall within the bracket. However, a couple of projects do try to walk the line between indie and triple-A, with Kena: Bridge of Spirits serving as a prime example. Ember Lab's action-adventure title is visually impressive by any metric, dropping players into a fully-realized fantasy world that has some absolutely gorgeous locations. In fact, the art style and special effects are arguably the game's strongest features.

That said, the rest of the experience is by no means underwhelming. Gameplay-wise, Kena is cut from the same bow-wielding cloth as Tomb Raider and Horizon Forbidden West, although it also mixes in some staff-themed melee attacks. While somewhat repetitive, the combat is generally fun and surprisingly challenging, particularly when it comes to the campaign's bosses. Alongside battles, the game relies heavily on puzzles and exploration, both of which are handled well.

Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition

PS Plus Extra's January 2023 additions included a couple of PS5 games, with the biggest title being undoubtedly Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition. More than a decade after the release of DMC 4, Capcom finally blessed the world with a proper sequel, the release more than lived up to the hype. The base game features three playable characters – Nero, Dante, and V – who all control completely differently from each other.

Consequently, the campaign barely ever has a dull moment since it is constantly switching combat systems, with each one offering a fair amount of depth. The Special Edition takes things to the next level by throwing Vergil into the mix, and the legendary character is a delight in battle. DMC 5 is a must-play for any action fan, and it is comfortably among the best PS5 PS Plus games.

Inscryption

At a glance, Inscryption might appear to be a fairly typical card-battler, albeit one with a darker aesthetic than the norm for the genre. And, in some ways, the game is just that, but there is so much more to this package than meets the eye. Inscryption's card system might not hold too many surprises for people familiar with tabletop projects, but it is generally well executed and addictive in a way that only these type of games seem to be.

Structured as a roguelite, players find themselves going up against a rather strange figure and a host of other opponents as they seek to win a series of matches. Each victory rewards new cards and upgrades, but multiple losses will send players back to square one. Inscryption does not stop at just a compelling battle system, and the game encourages players to explore beyond the table in order to piece together their circumstances. Yes, this is a card game with a story, and it is well done.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade

As the first post-launch additions, Sony needed to knock PS Plus Premium and Extra's July 19 line-up out of the park to demonstrate its commitment to the subscription service. And, for the most part, the selection delivered the goods, particularly for fans of Ubisoft and Square Enix. Except for a Day One release, Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade was the biggest newcomer; in fact, this JRPG is good enough to warrant a one-month subscription on its own.

RELATED: PS Plus Extra and Premium Games List (so Far)

Intergrade contains the 2020 base game and its Episode INTERmission DLC that introduces Yuffie as a playable character. As a whole, this package should keep someone busy for quite a while, and that's if they only focus on the main story. With addictive real-time combat, gorgeous visuals, and a gripping story that changes a few things from the classic 1997 game, FF7 Remake Intergrade is a contender for the best PS5 game on PS Plus.

Borderlands 3

Gearbox's Borderlands 3 took a long time to come to fruition, but the first-person shooter largely lived up to the hype. While the story tends to be a love-or-hate type of deal, the gameplay is comfortably the strongest in the main series. Borderlands 3 has a great selection of vault hunters, (seemingly) endless loot, stylish visuals, memorable NPCs, and decent side missions.

Enjoyable solo or in co-op, the game presents players with a fair amount of customization options through its skill system, permitting them to tweak their hunter to match their preferred play style. While slower-paced than something like Call of Duty, Borderlands 3's gunplay is nevertheless satisfying and enjoyable.

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege

PS Plus has added quite a few Ubisoft games, most of which fall within the open-world genre; however, one of the very best additions to the service is an exception. Debuting in 2015 on last-gen consoles and PC, Rainbow Six Siege has more than proven its staying power. The multiplayer-focused tactical shooter pits two teams against each other in cutthroat battles that leave little room for error. The gameplay is considerably faster than most shooters under the Tom Clancy umbrella, a distinction that has served the game well over the last few years.

At this point in its existence, Rainbow Six Siege has a firmly established playerbase who know its ins and outs like the back of their hands. Consequently, newcomers are likely to feel overwhelmed during their few (dozen) matches. The game comes with a steeper learning curve than most mainstream shooters on the market, but it is arguably worth the effort.

Sackboy: A Big Adventure

LittleBigPlanet has been mostly dormant in recent years, with the franchise's only notable project being a 2020 spin-off. A launch title for the PS5, Sackboy: A Big Adventure is a traditional 3D platformer that oozes charm out of every fiber of its being. Gameplay-wise, Sumo Digital delivered responsive controls and a respectable array of moves and powers to keep things interesting. The game not only plays well in single-player but also supports co-op, to the point that some levels require a second user (although most of the content can be tackled by solo players).

In the grand scheme of things, PS Plus does not have all that many 3D platformers, especially ones synonymous with the PlayStation brand. The likes of Crash Bandicoot and Spyro are not available on the subscription service, and Sackboy is one of the few games that can fill the void left by these absent franchises.

Ghostwire: Tokyo

Ghostwire: Tokyo is not one of the best PS5 Plus games if viewed solely on its quality; however, it is the perfect addition to PS Plus Extra. Tango Gameworks' project is the definition of a flawed and divisive game. Set in the eponymous Japanese city, the story follows Akito, a boy who becomes possessed by a spirit, granting him access to a range of abilities. Tasked with freeing spirits held captive by a mysterious man, the boy travels across the desolate city while occasionally fighting off ghosts.

Ghostwire: Tokyo's first-person gameplay produces moments of brilliance, but it is not a slam dunk that will definitely appeal to everyone. The same can be said about the title's explorative element since, while atmospheric, Tokyo is not stuffed with things to discover. As a full-priced, Ghostwire: Tokyo is not the easiest of sells; however, as part of PS Plus Extra, the game is a straightforward recommendation.

Bugsnax

Launching alongside the PlayStation 5, Bugsnax came out of nowhere but managed to establish itself as one of the better early options on the new console. Young Horses' game takes place on Snaktooth Island, which happens to be home to many of the eponymous creatures. Players are tasked with recording and capturing the Bugsnax on the island, which involves learning their habits and acquiring the right strategy and tools for each catch.

RELATED: Best Monster-Tamer Games, According To Metacritic

Bugsnax has a colorful aesthetic and a child-friendly tone, although the story is not above throwing out the occasional dark twist or reveal. Snaktooth is just a fun setting to explore, and the world is populated by not only interesting Bugsnax creatures but also NPCs who offer their own quests. While not the biggest PS5 PS Plus game, this 2020 release is well worth a playthrough, especially since it is not particularly long.

The Medium

The Medium extends Bloober Team's impressive catalog of horror games, a run that resulted in the developer landing the Silent Hill 2 remake. Although not the scariest project in the company's resume, The Medium is arguably Bloober's most complete and satisfying release, with its main competitor being Observer: System Redux (which is also on PS Plus Extra).

As implied by its title, the story revolves around a medium who can leave behind the mortal plane to walk among the spirits. This ability is a key mechanic in The Medium, as the game frequently splits the screen in two so that players can follow Marianne, the protagonist, while she exists in both realms. A few short encounters aside, The Medium primarily focuses on exploration and puzzles rather than action, a decision that fits well with the personal story the game tries to tell.

The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim - Special Edition

The eternal RPG, Skyrim will never die. Ever since debuting in 2011, Bethesda's masterpiece has been ported to seemingly every system under the sun, to the point of being available on three PlayStation generations. The PS5 and PS4 Special Edition versions come with the base game and most of the DLC, along with a range of enhancements that take advantage of the newer consoles' capabilities. While they do not drastically alter the experience, they polish and fine-tune the campaign just enough to justify their existence.

RELATED: Best Dragons In Video Games

More than a decade after its original arrival, Skyrim is still incredible, largely thanks to its captivating open-world that emphasizes exploration and freedom. The main story is nothing special, but it is only a minor part of the overall package, and players can ignore these missions and still enjoy a full and satisfying adventure. The game's customization, world-building, side quests, and lore are all among the RPG genre's best efforts, and they combine to create a timeless epic with very few peers. Skyrim is one of the best PS5 games on PS Plus simply because it is among the greatest titles of all time.

Dead By Daylight

Dead by Daylight is one of the most popular multiplayer games of the last few years, and its frequent updates and expansions have kept the project in the public discourse.

Four Survivors must work together to turn on generators and escape before they are hunted down by a Killer. Players are free to pick from a wide selection of both Survivors and Killers, all of which come with unique abilities that greatly alter the flow of matches. Dead by Daylight's roster includes quite a few iconic faces, including Silent Hill's Pyramid Head, Hellraiser's Pinhead, and The Ring's Sadako Yamamura.

Yakuza: Like A Dragon

December 2022 added two PS5 Yakuza games to PS Plus Extra: Like a Dragon and the Judgment spin-off. The latter is a stellar detective game that retains Yakuza's classic beat-'em-up combat, making it a suitable pick for people who prefer the franchise's older style of gameplay. Conversely, Yakuza: Like a Dragon marked a new chapter in the license's history while still being a mainline entry. Rather than Kazuma Kiryu, the story revolves around Ichiban Kasuga, a goofy but lovable Yakuza member with aspirations of heroism.

Like a Dragon uses a turn-based combat system akin to something like Dragon Quest; in fact, the game makes a few direct references to Square Enix's franchise. As always, Yakuza lives and dies by the strength of its writing, and Like a Dragon compares favorably to any entry in the series. The primary storyline instantly sinks its teeth into viewers, and it does not let go until the credits roll. The side quests are also good fun, and they are equally likely to be hilarious or heartbreaking.

Returnal

Housemarque's Returnal is a sci-fi epic about Selene, a space traveler who visits a strange planet and becomes ensnared in a time loop. This plot point serves as narrative justification for the third-person shooter's roguelike structure; as Selene explores Atropos' six biomes, her demise will signal a return to the beginning.

RELATED: Best Isekai Games Of All Time

Returnal has fantastic gameplay, which is hardly surprising considering the studio's previous releases like Alienation. The story builds an engrossing sense of mystery while cleverly diving into Selene's history and mental state.

Demon's Souls

When the PlayStation 5 debuted, Bluepoint's Demon's Souls remake was the main reason to pick up the console. Since then Sony's system has welcomed quite a few great projects, but this launch title continues to be one of the PS5's crowning achievements.

FromSoftware's 2009 original is also on PS Plus Premium, and as game-changing as that PS3 classic is, the remake's improved gameplay and enhanced environments make it the version most worth playing on the subscription service.

Control: Ultimate Edition

Remedy Entertainment has a track record of producing ambitious games with addictive combat and fascinating stories. In many ways, Control represents the studio at its best and most intriguing. The game is set in the Federal Bureau of Control, a government building devoted to investigating and storing the strange and otherworldly; unsurprisingly, things go desperately wrong and it is up to Jesse Faden to clean up the mess.

RELATED: The Best PS4 Games On PlayStation Plus Premium

Armed with a shape-shifting gun and an array of satisfying powers, Jesse traverses the FBC's halls as reality twists and turns around her. Control's gameplay is incredible, and this world's lore demands to be explored.

Immortals Fenyx Rising

Oversaturation has made it somewhat difficult to get excited about another Ubisoft open-world game, even if, individually, the publisher's releases maintain a fairly high standard of quality. While unlikely to impress people who hate the Ubisoft formula, Immortals Fenyx Rising could hit the spot for fans who have started to grow tired of Assassin's Creed and Far Cry. The 2020 title takes place in a fantastical world inspired by Greek Mythology and follows a hero who is tasked with stopping Typhon; in the meantime, their adventure is narrated by Prometheus while Zeus occasionally makes "witty" remarks.

Immortals Fenyx Rising's story can be hit-and-miss since its tone tends to be polarizing. Luckily, the game's combat, visuals, puzzles, and environments are far more dependably enjoyable. While certainly not devoid of all the quirks associated with Ubisoft's projects, Fenyx also takes inspiration from Breath of the Wild, leading to a middle-ground that is quite satisfying.

Assetto Corsa Competizione

Racing games are simultaneously extremely popular and also niche, and that goes double for sims. Assetto Corsa Competizione is a contender for the genre's least accessible entry as the game comes with a steep learning curve. Drivers looking to stand a chance in this GT-focused racer will need to dedicate a great deal of time to not only mastering their chosen vehicle but also the tracks they will be competing on.

RELATED: The Best Racing Games On PlayStation Plus Premium & Extra

That said, Assetto Corsa Competizione's attention to detail is admirable, and the same praise can be given to its graphics. Along with a solo career mode, the game also supports online play, so people who become enamored with this racer have a fair amount of content to go through.

Marvel's Guardians Of The Galaxy

Following the disappointing Marvel's Avengers, one would have been forgiven for being skeptical about Square Enix's Guardians of the Galaxy; thankfully, this single-player game is far superior to its live-service sibling. As Star-Lord, players get to experience a planet-hopping adventure packed with humor, action, and flashes of emotion.

While it is a bit disappointing that only Peter Quill is playable, GOTG's combat system blossoms nicely as the campaign progresses and players become more familiar with its intricacies. Narratively, this game should please both fans of the comics and the MCU movies.

Mortal Kombat 11

NetherRealm's Mortal Kombat 11 was a contender for the best fighting game on the PS4, and the Ultimate version competes for the same crown on the PS5. Slowing things down from the previous games, the combat is vicious, tactical, and difficult to master while still being relatively accessible.

RELATED: Mortal Kombat 11: Best Augments in the Game

MK 11 offers an endearingly cheesy story mode that should keep people who are only interested in the game's single-player content entertained for a good few hours. For those who want more, an active multiplayer scene awaits.

The Artful Escape

Francis is expected to follow in his uncle's big footsteps and become a folk singer. However, Francis prefers to shred than politely strum, and this internal conflict fuels The Artful Escape. A day before he is set to take the stage at a music festival for the first time, Francis is whisked away on an intergalactic journey by a strange sentient brain. As he visits gorgeous and peculiar worlds, Francis gradually breaks free from his own self-doubt.

The Artful Escape is a simple platformer that does not offer much in the way of challenge or innovation; however, the gameplay accentuates Francis's story well. More importantly, players can press one button to unleash a few sweet licks on a guitar.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge

TMNT has a long and uneven video game legacy. The franchise has produced a few all-time classics, along with a couple of underwhelming titles that should have been a lot better. During the last two decades, the Turtles' gaming adventures have frequently failed to deliver, to the point that the license stopped producing console games for a few years. Thankfully, 2022's Shredder's Revenge not only turned that momentum around but can also stand alongside the best TMNT projects of yesteryear that it sought to emulate.

Tribute Games' title proudly wears its influences out in the open. Ripped right out of the '90s arcade beat 'em up scene, Shredder's Revenge delivers simple but addictive gameplay, gorgeous retro visuals, and a hard-as-nails campaign. The game has seven playable characters, all of whom have unique quirks that set them apart from their peers and combine beautifully in co-op. The stages are packed to the brim with references to TMNT's extensive history; in fact, Shredder's Revenge is just a huge love letter to the franchise. Also,

Ghost Of Tsushima: Director's Cut

Talk about a fantastic way to conclude the PS4 era. Ghost of Tsushima is a majestic open-world action game that expertly blends visuals, story, and gameplay to create an experience that feels complete. Inspired by the Mongol invasion of Tsushima Island in the 1270s, the eponymous ghost refers to Jin Sakai, a samurai who seeks to free his home and regain his honor.

Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut packages the base game with the Iki Island expansion, adding roughly 10 hours of content to what is already quite an expansive campaign. Except for its plot, the DLC is of mostly high quality, and the same could be said for the Legends multiplayer mode.

Deliver Us The Moon

With Earth stripped of natural resources, humans turned to the moon for assistance. This led to the discovery of Helium-3, an isotope that has solved humanity's crisis; however, when the machine that sends the energy to Earth stops transmitting, an astronaut is sent to the moon to hopefully fix things.

Deliver Us the Moon has a fascinating premise loaded with tension since this is an end-of-the-world situation, and the protagonist's isolation adds to the narrative's gravitas. The gameplay mostly consists of exploration and puzzle-solving. Although the latter does not offer much in the way of challenge, the puzzles are well throughout and engaging. Ultimately, Deliver Us the Moon is a story-driven experience, and the game does not drop the ball in that area.

Wreckfest

Modern destruction derby games are, sadly, in short supply. Twisted Metal has been dormant for a decade, the last good FlatOut game came out in 2008, and Burnout has been reduced to a fleeting memory of a bygone era. Mad Max was one of the best vehicular combat games of the 2010s, and driving is just one (awesome) part of a larger whole in that title.

RELATED: Wreckfest: The Best Cars In The Game, Ranked

Since debuting in 2018, Wreckfest has established itself as the default modern vehicular combat game due to a lack of competition. However, if vehicular combat were still an active genre, Bugbear's release would have risen to the top regardless as it is simply that fun of a game.

Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales

Miles Morales builds upon 2018's stellar Marvel's Spider-Man; in fact, the two releases are so similar that the spin-off can feel a bit like an expansion. That said, the game's fundamentals are so unbelievably strong that they help nullify these criticisms.

As the titular hero, players get to swing around New York City during Christmas, all while they work through a deeply personal storyline that does a brilliant job of endearing Miles Morales to people unfamiliar with his comics. Like Marvel's Spider-Man is one of the strongest PS4 titles on Sony's subscription service, Miles Morales is among the best PS5 games on PS Plus​​​​​​ Extra.
