One Of The Best Roguelike Shooters For PS5 Is On Sale For A Great Price
PlayStation users can grab Returnal for $30 at Amazon for Black Friday 2023.
One of the PS5 exclusives that flies under the radar a bit compared to some others is Housemarque's stellar roguelike shooter Returnal. If you like third-person shooters or roguelikes, you should absolutely give it a try. And during Amazon's Black Friday 2023 sale, you can snag Returnal for only $30 at Amazon (down from $70).
Returnal was one of GameSpot's favorite games of 2021. Our 9/10 Returnal review praised the game's mysterious story and scary cutscenes, along with its innovative (at the time) use of DualSense haptics and 3D sound. "Do you need to be a little brave to play Returnal? Yeah. Do you need to be glutton for punishment? It helps. They say that anything worth doing should scare you at least a little bit. I'm not sure if that's always true, but Returnal makes a strong case," critic Mike Epstein wrote.
In 2022, Housemarque released a major update dubbed Ascension. It added co-op and a new Sisyphean endless mode to the roguelike third-person shooter. It also added a solo-only mode called Tower of Sisyphus, along with a series of bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements.
Following Returnal's release, Sony acquired developer Housemarque. The Finnish studio is now making a new IP that has yet to be announced.
