Alright, so here’s my take on this. Buckle up, it’s gonna be a bit all over the place.
Okay, so you know how every week, like clockwork, Sony drops this smorgasbord of digital goodies for the PlayStation faithful? Yeah, it’s like Christmas came early for PS4, PS5, and all the VR nerds out there. Seriously, every Tuesday, it’s like the PlayStation Store hosts its own mini-carnival. Not that I’m complaining. Who could hate a carnival?
Anyway — wait, oh right, where was I? The good old PlayStation LifeStyle peeps are always on the ball, making sure we don’t miss a beat. Bless ’em, really. So, every corner of the earth gets a slice of the action. Let’s dive into what’s cookin’ up in North America this week. Spoiler alert: it’s wild.
North American Update (Yeah, get hyped)
May’s PlayStation Plus Surprises (Or, essentials? Whatever.)
- ARK: Survival Extended (PS4/PS5) – Dinosaurs, folks. Dinosaurs.
- Balatro (PS4/PS5) – I have no idea what this is, but it sounds like a charm.
- Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun (PS4/PS5) – Because apparently lasers are timeless.
PS4 & PS5 Wild Ride
So, imagine wandering into a digital arcade and… bam! Here’s what hits you:
- Aidan In Danger – Maybe he’s lost? We’re all rooting for you, Aidan.
- Amazing Weekend 2 – Because weekends are sacred.
- Arcade Archives RYUKYU – Uh, it’s archives… from an arcade?
- Around the World 3 – Nobody does travel like a couch potato.
- ASTBALL – Don’t ask.
- Blades of Fire – Is it just me, or does this sound like a heavy metal track?
- BOMBARDINO CROCODILO… – I can’t. Just… what even is this title?
- Boomerang King – Throws things that come back. Very boomerang-y.
- Casual Sport Series: Badminton – For when you’re too lazy for tennis.
- Cat Life Simulator – For cat people, because of course.
- Cookie Clicker – Yes, it’s a clicking game. About cookies. Feel the thrill.
- Cop Officers: Police Simulator – Cops in NY. Give it a whirl.
- CrimeBound Chronicles – I def hear some detective jazz riffs somewhere.
- Dark Deception: Monsters & Mortals – Spooky, I think?
- Deliver At All Costs – Who even dreams up these titles?
- Downward – Possibly the motto of my life rn.
And then there’s this whole lineup of things, like ‘Duck Detective’ (quacking their way into mysteries) and random beach simulator stuff. I’m probably missing a few gems here, but spotting ‘Hentai Girls’ in there is… definitely something.
Honestly, if I dig any deeper, this will turn into a novel. Anyway, Europe is next, but maybe I’ll save that for another brain dump. Until then, happy virtual shopping!
