PSN Weekly: Week of 3/7/2016

First A Few Special Mentions For Our Audience

Action Henk – PS4 Digital

Despite the name and the aesthetic, this is actually the closest thing to a proper classic Sonic game in a while. You run along tracks full of jumps and obstacles and try to finish the stages as fast as possible. You are a retired action figure and the stages consist of a crowded toy room.

Assault Android Cactus – PS4 Digital

This is a fantastic top down twin stick shooter. But don’t take my word for it… no, actually, do take my word for it.

Hitman – PS4 Digital

The new entry in the series is simply titled Hitman. Perhaps the resetting of the title indicates that this may constitute a fresh reboot or take on the franchise. Either way Agent 47 will still be tasked with assassination.

Kholat – PS4 Digital

An exploration horror game narrated by actor Sean Bean and using the Unreal Engine 4 engine. It is based on the true events of the Dyatlov Pass incident in Russia, in which 9 hikers mysteriously died.

Rise of the Kasai – PS4 Digital (PS2 Classic)

The newest PS2 Classic release on the Playstation 4. This is the prequel to the highly regarded The Mark of Kri.

Tom Clancy’s The Division – PS4 Digital, Retail

The huge release of the week. Regardless of the look or the name of Tom Clancy, this is actually more of a multiplayer rpg than it is a standard shooter. Still unsure how much of it will be playable single player, but if you are looking for a multiplayer third-person shooter with a lot of rpg mechanics, this may be exactly what you wanted.
