The Sony PlayStation 5 is the latest console from Sony, and it is pushing the boundaries of gaming as we know it. It opens up the possibilities of creating new worlds for developers, with more depth and detail to them. The PS5 was recently released, and there are only a handful of games out, but there are games for all. If you enjoy games with a long story campaign, then there are some good, albeit limited, picks to go for. So, check out some of these PS5 games with a long story campaign.
PS5 RETURNAL
One of the most visually appealing games on the PS5, it features diverse biomes and a challenging gameplay loop. It is a roguelike game, meaning you will play it for quite some time before you unravel the entire story itself. The game boasts impressive enemy variety, complex level design and a focus on the environment. It has a distinct identity and uses all the PS5’s latest features, such as the fast SSD and the adaptive triggers on the controller.
PS5 Assassin's Creed Valhalla
If you like open-world games, this is a good pick. It has a massive world to explore and traverse and switches up the entire Assassin's Creed formula. It features a more RPG like progression system, which allows you to play the game how you want to. There are diverse locations, interesting characters, and a host of side activities to check out.
PS5 Demon's Souls
Put yourself through a challenge with this unrelenting Souls-like game. Perhaps the pioneer of the genre, it was first released for the PS3 and is out now as a remake exclusively for the PS5. It has greatly enhanced visuals, bettered control systems, and offers an extremely challenging experience not meant for the faint-hearted. It is a game with a gloomy overtone, and your only option to survive is to deal with massive and incredibly challenging foes.
The Last of Us Part II
While it came out as a PS4 exclusive, you can put the disc in the PS5 and enjoy a high frame rate and low loading times. The game features an incredible story that will really make you think about relationships, revenge, and the life cycle. It features well thought out combat mechanics, and if intense stealth is what you’re looking for, the game is for you. It has you play as two protagonists, which lends itself to the art of storytelling in games.
