  • Melee combat with weapons or fists
  • Challenging difficulty
  • Timing and reflexes matter (parrying, dodging)

A supremely stylish character action game where the witch Bayonetta battles hordes of angels using Witch Time, precise dodges and absurdly over-the-top finishers. Deep combo mechanics, colossal bosses and plenty of tongue-in-cheek charm.

Bayonetta 3

Action-packed real-time combat

A fast, flamboyant hack-and-slash where witch Bayonetta chains stylish combos using Witch Time and huge demon summons. Over-the-top presentation, a multiverse plot and precise dodging define the experience.

Bayonetta 2

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A blistering character action game where Bayonetta battles angels and demons using Witch Time dodges, wild combos and summoned demons. Absurdly over-the-top spectacle backed by an extremely precise and deep combat system.

Furi

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Furi is a pure boss-rush duelist where you mix sword combat, parrying and twin-stick shooting in intense one-on-one fights. Each guardian has a distinct style, backed by bold comic-inspired art and a driving electronic soundtrack.

Ultrakill

Action-packed real-time combat

Ultrakill is an extremely fast retro first-person shooter that blends style-ranking from character action games with brutal carnage. You heal by bathing in enemy blood and must fluidly chain weapons, movement and combos.

Doom Eternal

Melee combat with weapons or fists

A blisteringly fast shooter that forces you to keep moving and treat every demon as a resource, carving out ammo, armor and health with the chainsaw, flame belch and glory kills. Paired with a crushing metal soundtrack, its fights play out like a violent dance through hordes of demons.

Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number

Challenging difficulty

A brutal top-down action sequel where one hit kills and every floor demands split-second planning and reflexes. A fractured, non-linear story across multiple characters unfolds in garish neon, driven by a hypnotic synthwave soundtrack.

Doom: The Dark Ages

Lavish presentation

A heavy, grounded take on Doom where the Slayer stands his ground with a shield saw, parries and brutal melee weapons in a grim medieval sci-fi world. Rides on a cyber-dragon and battles in a giant mech add spectacle and variety.
