Games so hot you risk melting your ice cream.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
Swing and sling your way through New York as Peter Parker or Miles Morales, each his own distinct version of Spider-Man. The sequel lets you swap between the characters as you play, leaving you to decide who will battle crime and explore the wonderfully crafted Manhattan and Queens. Fight iconic villains and customize your character with our deep-dive guide to the best unlockables the game has to offer.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
Combining Belle Epoque-inspired environments, with both turn-based and real-time combat elements, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is one 2025’s most admired—and played—games. It's a rare treat of an RPG, delivering new takes on traditional mechanics and a dark fantasy story that will have you watching the skies in case your number is up. Hop in, and follow our guide to help you battle the Paintress.

Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced
Being bad has never looked so good. Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced brings the title up-to-date with modern PCs, adding new lighting and better audio, and speeding up loading times. The classic sandbox remains underneath, allowing you to appreciate the chaotic crime caper while admiring the updated technical treats. It looks so good we took a tour to show it all off.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows
Explore Sengoku period Japan in Ubisoft’s huge action-adventure game. For the first time since Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, there are twin protagonists for players to choose from: the stealthy shinobi Naoe and the more direct samurai Yasuke. There are castles to explore, rivers to meditate beside, and people to help—and as ever, there’s a conspiracy to uncover and a world to explore, with the player allowed to do so at their own pace.
EA SPORTS FC 25
If your team didn’t make it to this summer’s Club World Cup, just pick up a controller and pretend they did. With a roster of 38 leagues full of teams, a bench packed with modes like Rush and Ultimate Team, and a Career Mode where you train and manage a team, it’s more than just a kickabout in the park.

Blades of Fire
Looking for a seriously sharp action-adventure? Blades of Fire’s focus on blacksmithing and swordplay gives it a real edge. As Aran de Lira, you craft and wield weapons. Greatswords, daggers, and more are shaped and customized, creating unique weapons that you wield during the game’s plentiful battles. Sounds like fun? Our Blades of Fire guide will help you forge ahead, and our exclusive interview will give you lots of insight into the game’s roots.
What are some great deals in the 2025 Summer Sale?
We asked Flamboyance the Inflatable Flamingo what they’d buy during the Summer Sale. We then asked Florence the Inflatable Flamingo Translator what all the screeching and flapping meant. They said…

Timberborn
Beavers have, until now, been under-represented in the world of sims. Timberborn addresses that, making the industrious rodents the heart of a wonderful city-building game, where the crafty critters battle against the elements to build a society. It’s a fascinating, fun game, and a dam good time.
Universe Sandbox
Finding the sun a bit much? Cursing its existence? Why not explode it? Universe Sandbox is a space simulator that lets you play with planets and smash stars. With a flick of a slider, you can find out what happens when you make entire galaxies collide. (Spoiler: explosions.)
The Axis Unseen
A surprising combination of stealth and heavy metal music, The Axis Unseen is a game where you hunt folkloric monstrosities, sneaking through the undergrowth, tracking the trails the bizarre beasts leave, and equipping powerful elemental arrows to take them down. The thumping music won’t affect your stealthy ways.
