Little heroes - big adventures

Whether you're helping each other out in It Takes Two, overcoming unexpected obstacles and experiencing moments that will make you laugh, helping the famous little hero save his friends and the day in Sackboy: A Big Adventure or going on a fast-paced adventure with the lightning-fast blue hedgehog and his friends in Sonic Superstars - these little heroes will help you make it big!

Infinite worlds

Discover the secrets of the universe in No Man's Sky and visit foreign planets, solar systems and galaxies together. Build colonies, trade, fight and survive together. Will you be alone out there?

Or you can let your creativity flow and create your very own world in the sandbox classic Minecraft and experience limitless, individual gaming fun.

Challenging role-playing games

Be it Baldur's Gate 3, based on the pen & paper role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons, the breathtaking open-world sequel to the challenging Diablo series Diablo IV, or the almost even more difficult Elden Ring - these games make the hearts of role-playing fans beat faster.

Adrenaline-charged shooters

Take on the brutal dictatorship as a duo in Far Cry 6 and liberate the island of Yara to bring hope back to the former tropical paradise or experience pure madness in the wacky world of Borderlands 3. Don't forget to reload!

Nerve-wracking horror

Welcome to your very own horror movie: Play as an unstoppable killer or one of four survivors in Dead by Daylight and experience the horror up close. Or free the swamps of Louisiana from the dark infestation of brutal, nightmarish monsters in Hunt: Showdown. Not for the faint-hearted!

For sports fans

If you're a sports fan, you can score dream goals on the pitch that means the world in EA Sports FC 24, experience authentic basketball action in NBA 2K25, or test your driving skills on the racetrack in Gran Turismo 7. May the best win!

Charming indie games

Too many cooks spoil the broth? Not so in the chaotic cooking game Overcooked! All You Can Eat: In this kitchen, you'll have to work together to make the meal a success. Or master the (multidimensional) move together with the inhabitants of Packmore in Moving Out 2, the quirky sequel to the famous physics-based moving simulator.
