Well, that one just flew by, didn’t it? April seemed a bit back-loaded, with the likes of Saros<\/a> \u2014 Sony’s latest first-party exclusive \u2014 dropping on the final day, but in hindsight, it was a pretty strong month from the start.<\/p>\n

Aside from Housemarque’s intense and enjoyably broody action-shooter, the other headline act was probably Pragmata<\/a>, which went down extremely well with both reviewers and players.<\/p>\n

Yep, Capcom’s winning streak continues, as the Japanese publisher appears to have established yet another hit property.<\/p>\n

Continuing the sci-fi theme, April also saw the launch of Starfield<\/a> on PS5, after years of leaks and rumours. Bethesda’s open world RPG certainly has its fans, but we’d be surprised if it makes a push for our Game of the Month award considering the competition.<\/p>\n

Other highlights of the month included the eye-catching MOUSE: P.I. for Hire<\/a>, the insanely addictive Vampire Crawlers<\/a>, and the stylish People of Note<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The gacha enthusiasts had something new to obsess over, with the outrageously ambitious NTE: Neverness to Everness<\/a> dropping.<\/p>\n

Even fighting game fans were catered for with the arrival of Invincible VS<\/a>. The phrase ‘something for everyone’ is springing to mind, here.<\/p>\n

Oh, and who could forget, we finally got Hades 2<\/a> on PS5 last month as well. Damn, it really was a decent period for Sony’s current-gen console!<\/p>\n

Now then, as always, we’re here to ask you to vote for your personal Game of the Month, but before we dive into the voting process, let’s quickly recap all of our 2026 winners up until now…<\/p>\n

So, which PS5 game from April will join the hall of fame? Only you can decide, so vote in our poll, and then explain yourself in the comments section below.<\/p>\n

Voting closes on Thursday the 7th May 2026, at 00:00 BST.<\/p>\n
