The top stealth games available on PS5

      A significant portion of the top PS5 titles have incorporated at least a couple of elements from stealth games. For years, we’ve been sneaking in bushes in FPS games and silently eliminating targets in open-world settings, and we anticipate much more of this in some forthcoming PS5 releases. Unfortunately, pure stealth games have become quite rare in today's gaming landscape. If you’re not vigilant, it might appear that the greatest stealth games are relics of the past, but the PS5 has plenty of outstanding stealth experiences lurking in the background. We're about to highlight the finest stealth games available on the PS5.

      Please note: we are including only one game per franchise on this list, although collections may be considered.

      The all-time best fan games of all time

      The tools for creating video games are more readily available than ever. We’re not only witnessing a surge in remarkable indie games but also entire projects created by individual developers. While many of these are fresh IPs inspired by iconic franchises like Mario and Pokémon, others are driven by strong affection for existing series, leading to the creation of complete fan games. Since they cannot legally sell games using a publisher's intellectual property, these fan games are passionate labors of love from their creators. Whether it's a franchise that hasn't been active for years or one that has lost its way in meeting fan expectations, fan games aim to provide a fresh experience that can sometimes outshine the original. However, numerous fan games can also disappoint due to a lack of experience and supervision. We have curated a selection of the most impressive fan games that are worth experiencing alongside the original franchises.

      Capcom works quickly to address a game-breaking bug in Monster Hunter Wilds

      Monster Hunter Wilds has seen phenomenal success by any standard, breaking Capcom’s previous records for concurrent players on Steam and drawing many new players in. Sadly, some users have encountered a bug that prevents them from advancing in the main storyline, prompting Capcom to expedite a fix. To summarize, the bug causes a vital NPC to go missing. Instead of appearing where they are meant to, the NPC simply doesn’t show up, halting any progress. However, if you've already advanced to Chapter 5-3, you’re in the clear and shouldn't have any concerns.

      The best secret bosses in video games

      Video games have been keeping secrets from us for decades. Even in the early console generations, we’ve discovered Easter Eggs, but developers have gone beyond just simple hidden rooms or bits of text. Boss fights typically pose a challenge the player must overcome to continue the narrative. Some are straightforward, while others rank among the toughest bosses in gaming history. However, secret bosses are a special treat. Sometimes they offer challenges far beyond what the game typically presents, while at other times, they serve as amusing jokes or fun references and can even unlock a secret ending. Let’s explore every hidden corner to uncover the best secret bosses in video games.

      Moon Presence

      FromSoftware is one of the few studios brave enough to conceal entire levels behind obscure secrets. Every one of its games features secret bosses (often multiple), but we chose Moon Presence for its requirement of complex reasoning to access and for unlocking a new ending. As a Great One, many consider this to be the true final boss of the game, but you can only encounter it by finding and using one of three hidden umbilical cords before facing the final boss sequence. Then, if you choose to battle Gehrman and prevail, you can attempt to defeat Moon Presence and see a new ending. As usual, it's nearly impossible to discover this on your own.
