A Thrilling Month for PC Gamers with Two Big Releases

Highlights

  • PC gamers will soon have the opportunity to play both Ghost of Tsushima from PlayStation and Hellblade 2 from Xbox in May, despite being exclusive to consoles.
  • Ghost of Tsushima on PC will feature the Director's Cut version, including DLC and multiplayer mode, with support for 4k resolution, 60fps, and exciting modding possibilities.
  • Hellblade 2, releasing on PC alongside Xbox consoles, promises a captivating experience with cutting-edge graphics and immediate access via game pass.

2024 is proving to be another remarkable year for gamers, with a lineup of fantastic titles. PC enthusiasts are especially in for a treat this May as they are set to welcome both Ghost of Tsushima and Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2. This month will see PC players gaining access to a PlayStation exclusive and an Xbox exclusive almost simultaneously, presenting a tough choice on which game to dive into first.

While the battle between PlayStation and Xbox continues, PC gamers get to enjoy the best of both worlds with these releases. While PlayStation exclusives usually take a while to reach PC, Xbox exclusives often debut on PC on the same day, likely to cater to PC Game Pass users. The upcoming month will showcase this practice, putting PC players in a dilemma of choosing between PlayStation's Ghost of Tsushima and Xbox's Hellblade 2.

Two Highly-Anticipated Titles Coming to PC Soon

Ghost of Tsushima Arrives on PC on May 16

Ghost of Tsushima, the 2020 hit from Sucker Punch, received accolades for its stunning visuals, engaging storyline, and versatile gameplay allowing players to tackle combat as a samurai or a stealthy Ghost. The game follows Jin Sakai as he defends Tsushima from Mongol invaders. The PC launch of Ghost of Tsushima aligns perfectly with rumors hinting at a potential Ghost of Tsushima 2.

Players purchasing Ghost of Tsushima on PC will receive the Director's Cut version, featuring the Iki Island DLC, Legends multiplayer mode, and optimized performance at 4k, 60fps, and DualSense controller support. With modding capabilities, PC gamers have more reasons to be excited for this release.

Hellblade 2 Debuts on PC on May 21

Just five days after Ghost of Tsushima's PC premiere, Ninja Theory's much-anticipated Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 launches on PC and Xbox simultaneously. Following the success of Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, known for its immersive audio and top-notch visuals, Hellblade 2 aims to elevate these aspects for a brutal yet visually stunning experience, optimized for modern PC hardware.

Despite some controversy over its digital-only release, PC players are unaffected by this norm, as it has been standard for PC launches. Game Pass subscribers will have immediate access to Hellblade 2, offering another reason to explore both it and Ghost of Tsushima right on launch day. May is gearing up to be a packed month for gaming in 2024, and PC gamers stand to benefit from the arrival of impressive AAA titles next month.
