10 Early PS4 Games Worth Playing In 2020
1. Bloodborne
5 years on, and yet From Software's gothic goliath looms over every other entry on the list to claim the number one spot. What is there to say about Bloodborne that hasn't already been shouted from the spiky, blood-soaked rooftops?
The beautiful yet crushingly gruelling combat. The vicious and ethereal monstrosities the game has the nerve to call bosses. The slow evolution of the world, from one familiar into another simply not. The soundtrack! List really anything that you want in a game, and Bloodborne delivers it, stuns it with a blunderbuss shot and rips its insides out in a shower of claret.
Awakening as a Hunter in Yharnam, a claustrophobic gothic-drenched city decorated with mad inhabitants and werewolf-inspired beasties, you must figure out how to stop the spreading of the beast plague or the night will continue without end.
No spoilers, but the plot unravels in such a way as to unravel your very mind with its deep worldbuilding and use of both gothic and cosmic varieties of horror.
If Tearaway Unfolded is a great example of video games as an art form in the visual sense, then Bloodborne is its crazed, grim younger sibling that scoffs at its older brother's silliness.
