Best PS4, Xbox One Games to Play in 2022

The industry of gaming has grown rapidly over the last few years, as if contributed by the pandemic. However, the good side is that we can now talk about gaming with more friends and enjoy playing it with them.

It still continued to be rough in the gaming community since a lot of you were not able to get your hands on some gaming consoles due to the previous problems brought on by the chip shortages.

Some of our most loved games also experienced delays in updates and releases due to the lockdown. However, with that on the side, here is a list compiled of what I consider the best games to play on PS4 and Xbox One.

Mortal Kombat 11

Mortal Kombat 11 is a game you can play both on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

This game has had its share of highs and lows over the course of its history. However, this 11th version of Mortal proves that the series still has a plethora of surprises in store for its fans.

This version features a robust story mode as well as a ton of single-player content that can be unlocked. In this game, distance, range, and the strategic use of a limited number of super-moves are of the utmost importance.

In addition, the game has a Custom Variation feature, which will allow players to customize their characters. Each character begins the game with a predetermined assortment of outfits, weapons, and moves, all of which are modifiable at the player's choice.

In general, Mortal Kombat 11 is simply an outstanding fighting game that offers a little something for each and every player.

Elden Ring

The action role-playing game Elden Ring is experienced from a third-person perspective and focuses on combat as well as exploration as its primary gameplay elements.

According to Tom's Guide, the action of the Elden Ring takes place across a vast open world that contains a multitude of optional regions to explore. It has massive fantastical scenery as well as featuring dark, intricate dungeons, all of which are seamlessly connected to one another.

You take on the role of an adventurer known as a Tarnished, who is tasked with completing a perilous mission in which they must vanquish four demigods and piece together a potent artifact known as the Elden Ring.

This title is from FromSoftware, and just like its other games, Elden Ring is also designed with difficulty. Enemies can easily kill you in the game.

However, the advantage is that it helps you build skills and strategies in order to be victorious in the game, and it can be played alone or with your friends. Elden Ring is definitely one of the best games to play on PS4 and Xbox One.

Devil May Cry 5

One of the best games to play on PS4 and Xbox One that I recommend you to try is Devil May Cry 5. This game was published by Capcom in 2019.

The events of this game take place five years after the events of Devil May Cry 4, and the protagonists are a trio of demonic-powered warriors.

Together with a new protagonist named V, the returning characters Nero and Dante will strive to prevent the Demon King Urizen from wrecking humanity.

The player has the opportunity to utilize these characters in a variety of different missions throughout the adventures spent in Red Grave City. Every one of the characters has their own strategy for combat and for growing stronger over time. Players will also witness the secret behind V, as well as his relationship with Urizen.

It can be a difficult game to play, but once you find your rhythm, you will begin to enjoy the game's unique adventures, and it will definitely reward you. Just like the two games mentioned above, Devil May Cry 5 can also be played on Xbox One and PS4.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla

The Assassin's Creed Valhalla is for sure one of the best games to play on PlayStation and Xbox One.

Ubisoft's long-running action game series Assassin's Creed has a new addition called Assassin's Creed Valhalla, and it's another good game in the series.

In this game, you will assume control of Eivor, a Viking warrior living in medieval England. Eivor's clan is in need of a new home, and it is up to you to help them find one.

You will travel to many different kingdoms that are at war with one another, assassinate important targets, engage in combat with dangerous Saxons. In addition, you will also take part in Viking battles that are referred to as "flyting."

Grand Theft Auto V

Lastly, one of the best games to play on PS4 and Xbox One that I recommend is Grand Theft Auto V. The has an open world setting that a lot of players enjoy since it lets you roam around the area freely.

As reported by PCMag, the players can explore the setting located in San Andreas' and the fictional city of Los Santos in Los Angeles.

The player has the option of experiencing the game from either the third-person perspective and first-person and the game's world can be navigated using a car or by foot.

The story of Grand Theft Auto centers on three main characters: Michael De Santa, Franklin Clinton, and Trevor Philips. Grand Theft Auto V will follow the characters of these gangsters as they pursue the American Dream while engaging in various criminal activities.

During the course of the single-player campaign, players take control of the three main protagonists and can switch between them at any time, both inside and outside of missions.

As with previous GTA games, Grand Theft Auto V allows you to roam a thriving open world and wreak havoc in general.
