20 Awesome PS4 Exclusives You Need To Play Before PS5

18. InFamous: Second Son

Shadow Of The Colossus
Sucker Punch

One of the first 'big' entries on the PS4, way back in 2014, Infamous: Second Son is still somehow one of the best and most visually stunning games available on the platform.

While other titles in the Infamous series had cool powers in them, Second Son really takes it up a notch. It takes full advantage of the extra power that the PS4 brought to the table, giving series newcomer Delsin powers based on neon light, concrete, smoke and video, complete with vibrant, excellently-rendered lighting effects.

Like other titles in the series before it, this one also gives you free reign to explore an open world and be as much of a superhero or supervillain as you want to.

Developers Sucker Punch have been quite quiet since releasing this title and its standalone expansion, Infamous: First Light, but recently they started to show off their stunning next game, Ghost of Tsushima, which is looking like an amazing swansong title for the PS4.

Here's hoping that they still return to the Infamous series on the PS5 at some point. Next-gen powers? Yes please.
