8 Best PS5 Games Malaysia 2024 (For Kids, Multiplayer)

Overview

A spin-off to Insomniac’s 2018 Marvel’s Spider-Man; this semi-sequel takes place after the events of the first game and has you control Miles Morales, a new up-and-coming Spider-Man who’s still learning the ropes. 

When the original Spider-Man, Peter Parker, is unexpectedly called away from New York, it’s up to Miles alone to stop the villain Tinkerer from destroying his neighbourhood of Harlem. 

Spider-Man: Miles Morales takes full advantage of the PS5’s hardware, pushing out ray-tracing features, 4K resolution, as well as supporting haptic feedback for the Dualsense controller. One can feel the tension as you swing from building to building as Miles, in either glorious 4K resolution or a smooth 60 frames per second.

Details

• Features 4K Ray Tracing Graphics Mode or 60fps Performance Mode
• Experience the continuation of 2018’s Marvel’s Spider-Man storyline
• Haptic feedback support for Dualsense controller

Who is this for?

Marvel’s Spider-Man Miles Morales can be played by just about anyone. Even if you haven’t played the original, the game has a short optional intro that introduces you to the world of Spider-Man and quickly recaps the original events. 

With 4 different difficulty levels, you can pick up the game easily whether you’re a beginner or a veteran gamer. Although the graphics and gameplay are definitely top-notch, the story is what makes it above and beyond the rest, telling a compelling Spider-Man story that’s full of action and emotion. 

Overview

The remake of the original Souls game; Demon’s Souls is one of the hardest yet most rewarding video games you could ever play. 

Remade from the ground up, Demon’s Souls uses the latest technology to achieve top-of-the-line graphics. With ray tracing lighting, it evokes a dark, gloomy atmosphere, whereas its 4K resolution makes sure that you can see every little detail.

But the real main star of the show is definitely the brutal and unforgiving combat system, whereby it’ll exploit each of your mistakes and force you to die, die, and die again. Patience and attentiveness are key here, learning from your past mistakes and memorising your opponent’s movements.

Every boss battle is hard-fought, and every victory is well deserved. It's definitely one of the most frustrating, yet satisfying games out there.

• Remake of the original Souls game, one of the hardest video game series in history
• Modern high-end graphics with ray tracing capability
• Gameplay unchanged from the original 2007 game

Who is this for?

This game definitely isn’t for everyone. The difficult challenges and unforgiving battles might put a lot of people off, especially if they’re not used to games like this. But for players who have played and beaten other Souls games like Dark Souls and Bloodbourne, or simply enjoy a more challenging experience,  this will be right up their alley. 

Overview

Great graphics don’t often have to mean photorealism. Sometimes, the amount of detail and attention that goes into the environment and characters can achieve unbelievable results. 

Such is the case with Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. Look up any review online for Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and you’ll see that the common phrase is ‘a playable Pixar movie’. 

But the game doesn’t just have style. Journey with our two titular characters as they travel to different realities with vastly different environments, often consecutively, thanks to the PS5’s SSD speeds.

• Battle through different realities, each with its own unique challenges and gameplay
• 4K resolution graphics with HDR support for enhanced colours and details
• Haptic feedback and adaptive trigger support for a truly immersive experience

Who is this for?

The game is easy to pick up and play, with charming characters and breathtaking environments that make it great for a kid’s first introduction to gaming. 

But although the game might be aimed at beginners, the game’s challenge mode, unlocked upon completing the game, raises the stakes. The challenge here is that enemies will not only hit harder but can take more hits as well.

Overview

Sports games may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but just about anyone can pick up a controller and play a quick round of FIFA. 

With FIFA 22, the developers introduced a brand new technology aimed at making the animations much more lifelike. HyperMotion Technology uses motion capture data collected from a high-intensity football match and integrates it within the game to produce real-life animation and gestures.

Other fan-favourite FIFA modes also make a return, including Career mode, Ultimate Team, and the arcadey VOLTA Football. 

Details

• HyperMotion Technology for advanced animations
• True ball physics

Who is this for?

Although football fans will be the main demographics, we feel that FIFA 22 itself is a great multiplayer game. The controls are simple enough to understand, so just about anyone can play but takes skill to master, so there’s something to strive for. 

Overview

Overview

Although battle royales games have been getting a bit stale lately, Apex Legends seems to be one that keeps topping the leaderboards, and for good reason. Developed by Respawn Entertainment, developers of the Titanfall series, Apex Legends does one thing better than any of its competitors, it is shooting.

With fast and satisfying gunplay and a more limited battle royale arena, it keeps you on your toes at all times. There are constant updates that keep the game fresh, making sure both old and new players have a reason to keep playing.

Details

• Free-To-Play Battle Royale s
• Master Legends, each with their own unique powers and abilities
• Rise above the rest in the competitive rank mode

Who is this for?

Competitive games like battle royales aren’t for everyone, especially team-oriented ones like Apex. Still, with their intuitive ping communication system, it's easy to communicate with your teammates without the need for voice chat.

Overview

Although Call of Duty is more known as a straight-up shooter, its zombie mode has been lauded as one of the best in its genre. Here, shoot your way through endless hordes of zombies as you solve puzzles and gain power-ups to make both you and your guns stronger.

Not only that but you’ll be called to solve the mystery behind a story that has spanned multiple games, either alone or through couch co-op. And if you’re done with all that, hop onto the main game and multiplayer mode, both excellent in their own way.

Details

• Experience a gritty, realistic WWII story like no other
• A new chapter in the Call of Duty Zombies saga that continues the Dark Aether storyline

Who is this for?

Just about anyone enjoys a good zombie shooter, and even more so when it can be enjoyed with a few of your friends. It's not the most complicated thing in the world, but it doesn’t have to be. The gameplay is easy enough to understand that just about anyone who’s ever played a first-person shooter can easily get into it.

Overview

When Sony unveiled the PS5 for the first time in 2020, along with its launch titles, there was a sore thumb sticking out in its presentation. It wasn’t a high-budget, graphically intense game, a new installation of an established IP, or even something intended for older audiences.

Instead, it was a game that had you go around trapping and collecting anamorphic foods so you can feed your friends, and trust us, it is a lot better than it sounds.

Bugsnax is a game that has an insane amount of charm and tiny details, reminiscent of a Pokemon game. The puzzles are simple, but still fun to solve, and although the story presents itself as a kid-friendly little tale, there may be something more sinister going on in the background...

Details

• Runs at a detailed 4K resolution with a smooth 60 frames per second
• Solve the mystery of Snaketooth Island!
• Free update that adds a new area as well as 12 additional Bugsnax

Who is this for?

The game is definitely aimed at younger audiences, but you’d be surprised how just about anyone can get into it also. The puzzles themselves aren’t that hard to solve, but they’re still satisfying to complete.
