Weekly Spotlight: Expressive – PlayStation.Blog

Last week — or maybe it was two weeks ago, honestly, my sense of time is shaky — we threw out a challenge. We wanted you to find those killer in-game faces that make you go, “Whoa!” (or something like that). And y’all showed up. Let’s dive into your picks – sort of like rummaging through a messy drawer and finding gems, eh?

First off, there’s this image of Ellie from The Last of Us Part II. MrioMoreno5 caught her expression when her face just… lit up. Kinda like when you unexpectedly find an extra fry at the bottom of the bag. Magical, right?

Then we’ve got Couch_Gamer2k23 who sent in an image of Maelle from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Her expression is almost like she’s just been told her favorite snack was discontinued – pure apprehension. Or maybe I’m just projecting my own snack tragedies here.

Now, EmperorHal decided to share Deacon from Days Gone Remastered. He’s got this grimacing look while holding a weapon, and let me tell you, it’s the kind of face I make when I’m wrestling with tangled earphones. Or maybe not, but you get the vibe.

Next is xirantics with Cait Sith from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth sporting a cheeky grin. It’s like that moment when you pull a prank and haven’t been caught yet. Pure mischief. Or maybe he just heard a good joke? Who knows.

Oh, and player1pov dropped a picture of Raven looking fierce from Stellar Blade. Fierce like when you’re determined to open a stubborn jar lid. Seriously, her expression is intense.

RhodWulfLeon couldn’t resist sending in Aloy from Horizon Forbidden West. She’s all wistful, chilling in the grass. It’s the expression of someone lost in thought… or maybe just trying to dodge life’s curveballs. Grass can be pretty meditative, I suppose.

So, if you’re itching for more, just search #PSshare #PSBlog on Twitter or Instagram and dive into the chaos of this week’s theme. It’s like a face treasure hunt but digital.

Oh, and heads up! The next theme is monochromatic. We’re talking one color to rule them all. Submit those beauties by 11:59 PM PT on June 4, 2025. But wait, that’s in the past—let’s assume time travel. Trust me, it’ll be colorful.
