Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle earns its Game Pass queue slot with an adventure that rivals Last Crusade, and the April 2025 PS5 port added native 4K Pro support.

  • Updated 601h ago

Dragon’s Dogma 2

If you can forgive the original's quirks, DD2 holds up — patches fixed CPU performance and the microtransaction outrage was overblown (everything's findable in-game).

  • Updated 601h ago

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth

Despite a bare-minimum PC port, FF7 Rebirth's 100-hour follow-up to Remake holds its own — Queen's Blood alone could eat 20 hours.

  • Updated 601h ago

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

Best-in-class single-player DLC if you finished base Elden Ring — Land of Shadow rivals a full game, and patch 1.14 tamed Consort Radahn's combos.

  • Updated 601h ago

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl

Finally fixed since launch — patches 1.5 through 1.8 restored A-Life and tamed the worst stutters that wrecked the November 2024 reception.

  • Updated 601h ago

Palworld

Holds up in solo or co-op despite the 99% playerbase crash from 2M peak to 25k — Pokémon-with-guns hook earns its $30.

  • Updated 601h ago

Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon

A grim Arthurian RPG that earned its 'Morrowind-likes' label — Tainted Grail's Avalon is bleak, branching, and rewards players who came for writing over combat.

  • Updated 631h ago

ARC Raiders

Embark's prettiest and friendliest extraction shooter — ARC Raiders trades Tarkov's hardcore detail for cleaner combat and a real sci-fi world to fight over.

  • Updated 631h ago

Dying Light: The Beast

Techland brought Kyle Crane back for the right reasons — The Beast is Dying Light at its most focused since the original, with parkour, Crane, and a meaner map.

  • Updated 631h ago

Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2

Not the Bloodlines 2 you wanted — the one we got. The Chinese Room's atmosphere and writing are great, but it's a smaller, more linear game than the cult original.
