FIFA 22 (PS5)
Do you FIFA bro? If you haven’t heard of FIFA, it is the world‘s best selling video game in The world according to Guinness book of world records. With every new release FIFA breaks records! I think it’s mostly because soccer is the world’s sport and so many countries love and play the game with a passion that Americans don’t even come close to when it comes to our professional sports. Another part of its success, I believe, is a tribute to the amazing gameplay, motion capture, as well as the fantastic soundtrack that comes out with every new release. I’ve literally heard songs on FIFA soundtracks 5 or 10 years before I ever hear them on mainstream radio. They do a great job with cultivating their playlist showcasing talent From around the world of diverse music.
FIFA 22 promises a upgraded goalkeeper, advanced motion capture, as well as an immersive player experience that makes it feel like they’re on the pitch. Players can choose career mode and lead their team to football glory!

Curse of the Dead Gods (PS4)
Focus Home Interactive has released a unique over the top single player Roguelite hack and slash game where players collect upgrades and weapons very similar to Diablo but very different in gameplay.
In Curse of the Dead Gods, players must conquer 3 temples one level at a time, each one increasing in difficulty, that will reward players with crystal skulls and jade rings. These are essential to upgrading their skills, items, and weapons. Upgrades to weapons can add elemental damage and with over 10 different weapons players can pick the best weapons for their play style.
The Curse of the Dead Gods is unique in how they player takes “darkness damage”. Next to the health meter, there’s a corruption meter that when it fills up, the player will be cursed by the gods, up to 5 curses in total. Each curse is different like reduced damage or healing. Darkness damage can be received in battle or when a player uses blood instead of gold to pay for an item. In order to remove curses, players must kill the boss. The final curse makes you take massive damage.
Overall this is a fun game for those who like Roguelite style hack and slashers for one!
