Lego Horizon Adventures spins off from Guerilla Games' Horizon series. It reimagines the first game,Horizon Zero Dawn, through a more light-hearted Lego lens. We praisedLego Horizon Adventures as a kid-friendly distillation of the first game in ourreview, saying, "In telling Horizon’s story of environmental collapse and capitalism gone wild,Lego Horizon Adventures puts a layer of kid-friendly plastic building block abstraction between the concepts and the increasingly inevitable reality." It'll be available for PlayStation 5.
Also on offer isNeon White, Angel Matrix's stylish FPS platformer. It's fast-paced, and encourages you to take down all the demons that get thrown your way as quickly as possible. Polygon enjoyed it, sayingNeon White's "difficulty is perfectly curved, its story is disarmingly charming," in ourreview. It'll be available for PlayStation 4 and PS5.
