With God of War on the way in April, and the likes of The Last of Us part 2, Spider-Man, and Red Dead Redemption 2 due later in the year, this will be an excellent 12 months for the console. But you want to know what's best to play right now, don't you?
Our Top 20 Best Latest PS4 Games will show you the cream of the PlayStation crop and help you to make the most out of your beloved console. This list is in ascending order, so it starts at number 20 and works its way up to number one.
We've also taken the liberty of letting you know whether the game in question is enhanced for PS4 Pro. For those of you who are a bit stretched on the cash front, we also have the best free PS4 games that won't cost you a single dime. Not one. Here is Top 20 Best Latest PS4 Games 2018:
20. PES 2018
That’s true on both sides of the ball: never again will you bemoan a team-mate making a stupid run, but you will find yourself constantly challenged by the impressive variety of opposition tactics and strategies.
It’s the purists’ football game, requiring thought as well as stick skills, and while the series’ licensing woes grate as ever, they are fixable on PS4 via the ability (at last!) to import fan-made option files, rather than unwieldy previous workarounds. Truly, the beautiful game.
19. Final Fantasy 15
Final Fantasy 15's story is bonkers and its final destination a genuine surprise, but it's still a winding, delight-strewn road that Square converts are duty bound to travel – with sufficient appeal in its blockbuster battles and eclectic quest mix to suck in Fantasy novices, too.
18. Prey
Powers like mimic let you become anything (coffee cups are surprisingly good at breaking into offices for example), while stuff like teleportation and psi-blasts let you move and fight in different ways Then there's the Gloo gun, a dollop firing tool that can create bridges as well as immobilise enemies.
There's such a wide range of options and ideas to mix that everyone will find their own unique was to save humanity from the Typhon alien threat.
17. The Last of Us Remastered
With the jump to (a mostly stable) 60fps on PS4, TLOU has never been sharper to play or more devastating to watch. Whether refining the undead or redefining what a game script can be, this is Naughty Dog at the peak of its powers. And with Left Behind bundled in, you’re also being treated to arguably the finest slice of DLC in PlayStation history.
16. Dishonored 2
Supernatural abilities such as the latter’s grapple-like Far Reach again deliver both flair and fun, while a small-but-major improvement to melee combat is being able to turn a parry into a non-lethal knockout, making murder less of a necessity if stealth is your jam.
The only notable drawback is assumed knowledge – the storyline makes little sense if you've not played the first game.
15. Batman: Arkham Knight
The combat system is perfectly tuned, the vast number of comic and DC references will please fans, and the feeling of zipping through the city gives a sense of power and freedom unparalleled in games. Well, perhaps until Spider-Man hits PS4 later in 2018.
14. Doom
There's a primal satisfaction to whipping out a Super Shotgun, blasting an Imp's innards into oblivion, and then performing a lighting-fast, stunningly violent Glory Kill on the demon who caught shrapnel just behind him.
The classic weapons and enemy types benefit from new additions like upgrades and double-jumping, making Doom one of the most frenetically fun shooters of all time.
13. Titanfall 2
Its campaign offers true freedom while still retaining a sense of the familiar, its navigation and combat feel truly three-deminsional, and its big-gun battles are an adrenaline rush even Optimus Prime would struggle to contain. A special, special game which, in execution, is anything but robotic.
12. Bloodborne
Though there may be fewer weapons than in Dark Souls, the new Trick variants (capable of morphing between long and short-form states) are among the most empowering virtual slaughtering tools you’ll ever find.
With the finest third-person melee combat in all of games, drool-worthy art design and the most twisted monsters in the biz, this is a gorgeously gothic must-have. Bit hard, mind.
11. Monster Hunter World
Endless weapon types, huge creatures, constantly gorgeous environments, and a terrifyingly addictive loot for spoils system means Monster Hunter will have its claws in you from the get go. Oh, and don't forget to aim for those weakspots. You'll thank us later. If you're looking for more help, check out our Monster Hunter World tips.
10. Destiny 2
Your first month of play will be a giddy treasure trove of loot and, of course, the perfect gunplay that sent us into raptures the first time around but there are currently problems surrounding endgame content.
Bungie is currently working on some unannounced updates, and while there are beautiful locations, excellent strikes and a cracker of a raid to enjoy with friends, there's still a few problems. This is still a definitive shooter but it looks like big change lies ahead for Bungie's ambitious sequel in 2018.
9. Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus
Transposing BJ Blazkowicz's intensely personal war to an alternative '60s America twisted into an ugly parody of itself by Nazi rule, Wolfenstein 2: The New Colossus brings the same aggressive focus on combat and character, alongside a newfound relevance and indignation. Not that it's all seriousness and soul-searching.
Wolfenstein's kinetic, high-risk, high-reward combat is even better tuned up, with customisable dual-wielding laying on even more strategic carnage, just as hatchets and exo abilities blow up the stealth. Brainy, brawny, big, brash and beautiful, MachineGames' new wave of Wolfenstein remains some of the smartest and most unique FPS around.
8. Resident Evil 7: Biohazard
The game follows Ethan as he searches for his missing wife in a Louisiana swamp, a trip that soon goes very wrong when the Baker family show up. This is a much more low key, slow burning sort of fear than the last couple of game's action blow outs, focusing on a more slasher movie style pursuit through a large, crumbling house.
But, despite the overhaul, things like inventory management, puzzles, weapons and items still feel unmissably Resi. It's a great Resident Evil game, but more importantly, a great horror game in its own right.
7. Assassin's Creed Origins
A full RPG in a sprawling and eye-meltingly pretty Egypt, Origins pushes reset on everything you know about the series. Combat, loot, free running, quests. You name it and Origins has made it better and probably made it deadlier.
Oh God, not another angry hippo.... Add in an origins story that hurts in all the right places and future sections that have seriously interesting implications for the future of the series and Assassin’s Creed Origins is the definitive AC adventure.
6. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
What really impresses are the genuinely entertaining missions, and the eclectic cast of characters that bring the world to life. While combat can be challenging at first, once you get into it, there’s enough depth here to keep you interested for the duration.
Not to mention it's been further bolstered by the often-astonishing Blood And Wine expansion DLC. Essential in every way.
5. Fallout 4
Giving the main character a proper voice adds an extra layer of polish to proceedings, and the expanded set of companions and customisation options are very welcome too. It’s not without its faults (or vaults), but the scale of Bethesda’s wasteland will keep you bunkered down for weeks.
Slosh in the extensive DLC additions available in the complete Game of the Year version and you’ll never want to return from the Wasteland.
4. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End
But it's how Uncharted nails the small moments that makes it truly great. For the first time in the series, Naughty Dog has given the series' characters some room to grow as actual people, filling in the details where you least expect them to, and these smaller moments make the big ones feel all that more impactful. As explosive as Uncharted 4 is, it's also deeply personal - and it's a hell of a showpiece for your PS4, to boot.
3. Grand Theft Auto 5
It’s in the way each addition and improvement combines to enthral and seduce you all over again to sink another blissful 50 hours into Los Santos without it ever feeling like a re-run. Also: an unhealthy dose of first-person cat-stomping.
If tabby-kicking isn’t your thing, GTA: Online – with its mega online Heists, improved character creator and, y'know, end of the mystery of Mount Chiliad – is sure to gets it claws into you. Quite simply, it represents the definitive edition of the greatest open-world game ever made.
2. Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain
It’s something to be explored for days, weeks, months – each little secret and hidden slice of gameplay just waiting to be found and to make players rethink the way they approach the game. Plus, it’s got a killer '80s soundtrack, and some wonderfully gruff voice-acting from Kiefer Sutherland.
Grand, majestic and bittersweet, this is an instant classic and one of the finest things you can shove into your PS4. It's also been re-released as MGS5: The Definitive Experience, which contains prologue MGS5: Ground Zeroes plus all the Metal Gear Online DLC items, so that's definitely the version to go for.
1. Horizon: Zero Dawn
On top of the all that post apocalyptic prettiness (especially in the PS4 Pro enhanced version) the core gameplay loop of hunting and taking down various mechanical creatures is the real draw here. The use of slower weapons like bows creates a far more tactical take on the action - you have to think about your strategies and consider your options rather than just charge in blasting.
As well as learning how to get by in a world that hates you, there’s just so much to see and do as you chase side quests, meet new factions and try to unravel the compelling mystery behind corrupted machines and a lost past. Once you're done with the main game, there is a sizeable, challenging expansion with The Frozen Wilds. Easily one of the best games of this generation.
