If you’re a fan of PS5 games, and are also looking for a partner to share the console with – and perhaps some romance when it’s ‘game over’ – how about checking out one of the latest dating outlets? Perhaps you often ask the question, ‘where can I arrange a local hook up near me, especially with someone who shares my PS5 passion?’ Look no further than online platforms, where algorithms will steer you directly to those singles ticking your boxes the most. Now all that remains is for you to make a shortlist of games to play as a couple. Here are six of the best.
Life is Strange (True Colors)
Life is Strange would be an excellent game for you to kick off your couples date night. Rather than some shoot-em-up gorefest, this focuses on a more basic but equally enthralling aspect of gaming – solving puzzles. You will be amazed at how quickly you can become immersed in this environment, having to make key decisions as you explore different locations and initiate communication with other characters that appear in this dimension.
The Quarry
This is a horror-inspired PS5 game that will have you huddling closer together on the couch! If you have ever caught any of those 80s slasher movies, such as Friday the 13th or Halloween, you will be more than familiar with the setting. You are in charge of nine teenagers who have found themselves having to spend a night at Hackett’s Quarry summer camp. Soon you will be listening out for supernatural creatures and antisocial locals prowling in the darkness. And how about those Tarot cards that the local fortuneteller, Eliza frequently describes that can help plot your survival?
Hell Let Loose
What better way to enjoy a fully-immersive PS5 experience as a couple than finding yourselves pitched into the middle of a World War II battlefield? Involving combatants from the US, German and Soviet military, you will enjoy white-knuckled firefights, while commanders can control air strikes and troop deployment.
Martha is Dead
If you’re feeling in need of respite from a warzone, why not move the gears down a little and activate an intense psychological horror? Although the setting is also World War II, the main protagonist of this game, Martha has been deaf since she was a child. As the game unfolds you will enter a captivating world of Italian resistance fighters, as well as have to make decisions based on Martha’s fraught relationship with the outside world.
Road 96
This thoroughly enjoyable adventure game is another worthwhile choice for your couple’s date night. Set in the year 1996 in the make-believe Petria, this is a country living under the rule of a malicious dictator. This makes for an intriguing backdrop to the action as you control teenagers attempting to flee the repressive regime by hurrying to the border via the titular Route 66. You can use your initiative to hitchhike, hail taxis, or even steal cars to make you skip
It Takes Two
Finally, how about taking things right down to a chillout level and enjoying a fantastic adventure game? It Takes Two doesn’t involve hair-raising races or having to avoid bullets, but it is tremendous fun! Critically acclaimed and beloved by its legions of fans, this PS5 game introduces May and Cody, a couple on the verge of separating. When their daughter, Rose receives this shattering news, she uses handmade dolls – looking just like her parents – to repair their disintegrating relationship through role-playing. You will soon become addicted to this charming and beautifully rendered scenario.
