With the world in the middle of a global pandemic that's led to travel restrictions, toilet paper shortages, and the closure of major events worldwide including E3 2020 being canceled , more and more people are being forced to self-quarantine, work from home, and avoid going out in public whenever possible. All this time at home means more time to play great games and catch up on the backlog of missed games, (though everyone should be putting their health and health of others first), so it's important that Sony brings the goods each month with PlayStation Plus for this and a variety of other reasons. Here’s our complete PS Plus free games wish list for April 2
Seth Goldman loved Hollow Knight , a 2D action-platformer on Steam with "Overwhelmingly Positive" reviews, and a Metacritic "Must Play" on Nintendo Switch . Australian indie studio Team Cherry developed the surprise hit and rewarded their fans with substantial direct contact on the creation of their second outing, hollow knight strategy|https://hollowknightportal.com/ Knight: Silkso
If you want a physical version of the album, there are a couple of options available on Bandcamp . For $19, you can get the CD version which comes in a "pristine-quality limited-edition 1 disc, 6-panel digipack."

Pre-purchasing any of these versions will also include the digital version with one of the tracks available
Developer Chucklesfish sourced their cash flow by using crowdfunding. Starbound stayed in the early access phase for a great deal of time, but in the end, it was worth it. According to gamesindustry.biz, Starbound has sold over $2.5 million copies, putting their sales figures in the tens of millions of doll
For the low, low price of two notches, the Sharp Shadow Charm turns the Knight's Shadow Dash ability (a mid-to-late game addition that allows the Knight to dash directly through enemies without taking damage) into a weapon, with damage equivalent to a single nail sw
Masterful players know how to use those few, precious post-damage invincibility frames to their fullest effect. The rest of us, though, need a bit of a longer window. That's the kind of player that the Stalwart Shell Charm is for. At the cost of two notches, the Stalwart Shell will envelop the Knight in a, well, stalwart shell, and briefly shield them while they heal. There's no shame in needing a safe sp
Have you ever read the title of a thing and immediately known everything that there is to know about the aforementioned thing? That's the Sprintmaster Charm. It takes up a single notch, and in return, it turns the Knight into the speediest discarded vessel this side of the Hallown
And its remastered edition – Metroid Prime Remastered – only elevates that brilliance. It keeps the soul of the 2002 classic fully intact while giving it a modern shine, smoother controls adapted perfectly to the Nintendo Switch’s Joy-Cons, and a visual overhaul that makes the whole experience feel polished and timel
Goldman designed the boss’ look and named him after himself as a sort of memorial. Team Cherry was happy to work with Goldman, describing him as "a really cool young guy we were fortunate enough to meet and get to know." Team Cherry revealed Seth in a Reddit post teasing that he "guards a secret long forgotten and will attack any who stray too close", and "will fight until the very end, and beyond." Goldman got to see Seth in action before passing, "I saw some footage and he is amazing and fast." It was easy to read pride in another post where Goldman called Seth "a monst
The gaming industry often works in cycles, at least when it comes to popular genre trends. These days, battle royales and social deception games are all the rage, but a decade or so ago, people really couldn't get enough of sandbox games with crafting mechanics. Though it may not be the most successful game to fall into that category , Terraria is widely considered to be one of the b
Earlier this week, Xbox players were treated with the release of Ori and the Will of the Wisps , the highly anticipated sequel to the critically acclaimed 2015 platformer/Metroidvania Ori and the Blind Forest . Currently sitting at a score of 90 on Metacritic for Xbox One, Moon Studios has managed to outdo itself, surpassing its predecessor and leaving PlayStation users in the dust. That is unless Sony decides to release another popular Metroidvania on PS Plus in April following the success of Ori and the Will of the Wisps, one that Moon Studios took heavy inspiration from - Hollow Knig
After Goldman’s death, his father sent Monroy an email (graciously shared with TheGamer.com) telling her, "Seth had a real dream come true" due to her work with Team Cherry. "He LOVED that game," he said, adding "Seth's soul lives on in a video game and in the hearts of all that knew h
