Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End
Uncharted 4 was a perfect finale for Drake’s adventure, it perfectly tied in all of the three games that came before it and gave it a fitting end. Drake has been going on for quite some time now and this seemed like the biggest and baddest adventure he was supposed to be a part of. Ultimately Drake finds what he’s looking for but the game does not end without hinting towards what the future might bring in for us.

Shadow of the Colossus
Easily one of the best story-driven games in this list, Shadow of Colossus is a remarkable game which features a roller coaster of a ride with how the story takes you on a journey. The setting of the game is perfect which blends both the fantasy and real world together. Wander’s story is beautifully crafted and you should definitely give this a go.
The Last Guardian
The setting and the aesthetic of this game will charm you and the story of The Last Guardian seems like a perfect element that holds all the pieces together. Trico as a companion is wonderful to have around, this game speaks volumes about relationships and gets you thinking for a long time.
Horizon: Zero Dawn
Horizon Zero Dawn charmed the audiences when it was first released, the story of Aloy and how she grew up secluded from her village to one day being the best of her people.

This game revolutionized this genre and how decision making affects the storyline.
Marvel’s Spider-Man
This PlayStation exclusive has been regarded as one of the best superhero games in recent history, after the disappointing Spider-Man games of before this game truly managed to get Peter Parker’s and Spider-Man’s essence into the game and show how diverse and different these both personalities are, while still being the same person.
Celeste
Celeste is probably the one game on this list which is more than what meets the eye, you wouldn’t expect much from a side scroller game but the narrative in this game is one of the best as it takes you on Madeline’s quest in which she has to battle her emotions and conquer not only the great tasks up ahead but her inner demons as well.
NieR: Automata
NieR: Automata takes you on a similar setting as to where Detroit: Become Human takes you but if you take the artificial intelligence similarities away then this becomes a completely different approach to the genre and you will be in a ride through the twists and turns this game throws at you. NieR: Automata is an experience which you should not skip.
Judgment
The recently released Yakuza spinoff has a beautiful story embedded within a detective thriller game. You will not see the twists coming and some of the aspects of the game will hit you hard but you will gladly go for the ride as this game through the ups and downs of being a detective in Japan.
Inside
Inside is different for every person, the story is a work of art and speaks subjectively to everyone who plays it. The game will often make you wonder about your choices puzzling you and haunting at the same time. It is a short game but is worth the time you would invest.
