The entries below are mostly single-player, and almost all of them soaked up a few Game of the Year nominations when they were first released. We collected the 20 best games currently available on Playstation Now with a focus on that tradition. If you missed out on the reigns of the PS2, PS3, and PS4, the service is an absolute trove. Sony has spent the past 20 years establishing itself as the premiere destination for ambitious single-player experiences, and that means that the Playstation Now gallery is lined with Metal Gears, God of Wars, and Uncharteds.
But, as always, Sony has an ace up its sleeve the vast, varied, and consistently enthralling archive of Playstation classics. The titles available are usually older and past their zeitgeist, which doesn’t compete with Microsoft’s willingness to put brand-new games on the service as soon as they release to the public.
Playstation Now, Sony’s gaming subscription service, doesn’t boast the same catalogue strength as Microsoft’s equivalent, Xbox Game Pass. It’s weird, but absolutely something you can get used to.Photo-Illustration: by Vulture Photos by Annapurna Interactive, SUPERHOT Team and Sony Interactive Entertainment This leads to weird things like pressing the eastern button in the home menu to start the game, but then pressing the southern button to load your save just moments later. When I am holding a Switch in my hand, my brain has no problem with this swap, but Dark Souls didn’t get the memo, so I still – even five hours in – find myself accidentally canceling out of menus often. Super Mario Odyssey and Breath of the Wild, for example, have you confirming menu actions using the eastern button, and the southern button to cancel. The Switch, for whatever reason, swaps the layout so confirming and canceling actions in its menus are reversed. PS4 and Xbox One’s menus default the southern ‘X’ or ‘A’ button to confirmation and the eastern ‘O’ or ‘B’ to cancel. The Bad The Button Layout For Menus Is Weird
It’s perfect for capturing every single one of your victories, deaths, or just to take a look back and see exactly how many Souls you were carrying when you died to decide if they’re worth going back for.
For whatever reason, though, not every Switch game is capable of recording video, so including this with the list of good things about the game is here really just as means of information delivery: by holding down the screenshot button, you can record 30 seconds of Dark Souls footage on Switch. Obviously, Dark Souls Remastered on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One allowed you to record footage of the game.
