WWE 2K24
There's not much new to talk about a WWE 2K game, as fans of the long-running franchise already know what they're getting. Visual Concepts' latest wrestling title, which released in March, brings marginal improvements over its predecessor. There are some gameplay refinements, and players get a “Super Finisher” this time for a more hard-hitting finishing move.
WWE 2K24's Showcase mode celebrates 40 years of WrestleMania, letting players relive some of the greatest moments from the competition. You can play landmark matches of WWE legends like Undertaker and Andre the Giant or fight as modern superstars like Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns. The game will be available on PS4 and PS5.

Dead Space
The 2023 remake of the original Dead Space arrives on PS Plus next month. It's a survival-horror classic, with players taking control of an engineer, Isaac Clarke, as he explores USG Ishimura, a mining ship run over by grotesque monsters, Necromorphs. Clarke must investigate what went down on the ship and look for any survivors, while dispatching the Necromorphs he encounters with an array of engineering tools.
The remake, developed by Motive, rebuilds the original game from the ground up, bringing graphical fidelity to modern standards. Dead Space will be available on the PS5.
