Global PlayStation Store Update – May 27, 2025

Alright, imagine this: I’m sitting here with a coffee (which is already cold, by the way) and flipping through PlayStation updates as if they’re this morning’s paper. So, yeah, every week, Sony decides to throw in a swirl of new stuff for those of us hooked on PS4, PS5, VR, and whatever PlayStation Plus has up its sleeve. And here’s the twist — let’s dive into this week’s chaos from the PlayStation universe.

The North American Adventure (or update, but adventure sounds cooler, right?)

So, May’s PlayStation Plus Goodies (Essential… or not?)

• ARK: Survival Extended (PS4/PS5) – Can you tame dinos? Who knows.
• Balatro (PS4/PS5) – Sounds like a fun mystery.
• Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun (PS4/PS5) – Because why not throw in some futuristic battles into your day?

PS4 & PS5 Games Are Here to Save Us

And not gonna lie, some of these game names sound like fever dreams.

• Aidan In Danger – Aidan needs help. It’s a recurring theme!
• Amazing Weekend 2: Search and Relax Collector’s Edition – Because weekends are never as chill as they promise.
• Arcade Archives RYUKYU – Makes one wonder about ancient places and pixelated vibes.
• ASTBALL – Not a clue what this is, but I’m intrigued.
• BOMBARDINO CROCODILO vs TUNG TUNG SAHUR – This title is a lot. Is it a brawl? A comedy? A crocodile showdown?
• Boomerang King – Always comes back around, doesn’t it?
• Casual Sport Series: Badminton – Who knew badminton could get digital?
• Cat Life Simulator – Finally, a game to live out my cat dreams.
• Cookie Clicker – Cookies and clicking. There is an art to it.
• Cop Officers: Police Simulator of NYPD City – For anyone who wants to play detective without the peril.

I’m getting sidetracked, but you know what? It’s part of the charm. Let’s not forget the rest like Downward, because doesn’t life sometimes feel that way? Or a Duck Detective solving conundrums. Is it a mystery? Certainly.

Then there are deeper cuts like Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time — and seriously, where can I get some time-stealing skills? Honestly. Days could use stretching.

And it goes on — from Parkour on Rooftops (which I definitely can’t pull off IRL) to that mysteriously named TRALALERO TRALALA BACKROOMS POOLS.

Chances are, you’re wondering if all these games are just imagination doing handstands. Maybe they are. Maybe they’re not. But they sure keep us coming back every Tuesday for Sony’s new wild ride.

Phew, okay, closing this chapter on North America’s quirky digital playground. Europe? Hang tight. You’re next.
