Hello and welcome to PlayStation Access. My name is Nate and these are the PlayStation Store highlights for Tuesday the 20th of May 2025. First up this week is Blades of Fire, a new action adventure from Mercury Steam, the gang behind the beloved Castlevania Lords of Shadow. You play as Aaron Deler, an outcast smith who embarks on a regicidal mission when the evil queen Naria turns the world’s steel into stone. It’s a classic earthy fantasy adventure complete with naive companion and a brilliant map. Speaking of smithing, the game rests on an unusually elaborate crafting system which is directly tied into the balanced combat. A fresh take on soul style stamina based action. Unlocking, upgrading, and understanding weapons goes handinhand with developing a fighting style that’ll see you through that map all the way to the queen. taking on armies of beasts and big men with increasingly larger and pointier weapons. Blades of Fire lands on the store on the 22nd of May, or you can check out the free demo available right now. The next stop on this week’s journey is the hotly anticipated deck building rogike Monster Train 2. This sequel to one of the best games of 2020 takes the moorish gameplay loop central to the original and makes it more moorish. That means all new decks, extra card types, and special abilities. So, even the most dedicated railway buffs will feel like it’s their first time aboard. And if you’re new to demonic train spotting, then prepare to fall in love with the complexities, style, and charm of a firstass game that will hook you like Balatro on rails. Monster Train 2 arrives on the 21st of May for PS5. Next up, we have Deliver at all costs, an isometric courier simulator that asks the question, why bother with roads when you can drive through buildings? Set in a sendup of late50s America, you play as delivery driver Winston Green, whose job demands that he ferry some very unusual cargo. If you’re wondering what unusual might entail, then it depends on what you think of a truck full of lit fireworks that randomly explode, or a balloon machine that slowly turns your car into something resembling a plane. If that hasn’t sold you, how about the fact that you can destroy literally everything in your path to ensure a speedy delivery while vibing to that oldtime rock and roll. Prepare for some seriously mad cap physics-based action alongside a campaign brimming with intrigue and deliver at all costs available on the 22nd of May for PS5. And last up this week is Zombie Army VR, a much more intense entry in Sniper Elite’s Undeadobsessed Sibling series. This new story takes place before the events of the fourth game and has you crossing a bombed out Nuremberg to rescue the leader of the Dead Hunters, Captain Herman Wolf. Gameplay-wise, you’ll be seeing Rebellion’s trademark X-ray kill cams in their most immersive form yet, as well as dual wielding weapons for uplose and personal skull crushing. But if it gets too spooky to play alone, you can always recruit a buddy for the co-op campaign. Zombie Army VR arrives on PSVR 2 on the 22nd of May. As always, if you’re looking for a bargain, then make sure to check out the deals tab on the PlayStation store, including up to 75% off in the PlayStation Indie sale.
