It’s a new month, which means a new set of games has been added to the PlayStation Now library. This month brings three solid games to the platform yet again, all of which are well-known titles. The first of which is Hitman 2, the latest installment in the Hitman series of games. The game puts you in the shoes of the titular Hitman himself, Agent 47 as you assassinate assigned targets from different countries and locations around the world.
The next game on the list is Greedfall, the latest action-RPG from developer Spiders, which puts the player amidst an impending war on the Island of Teer Fradee. The final arriving on the platform this month is the popular rogue-like 2D action platformer, Dead Cells. It’s a game especially known for its flashy visuals and brutal difficulty.

Dead Cells:
Dead Cells puts you in control of a failed alchemic experiment trying to figure out what’s happening on a sprawling, ever-changing and seemingly cursed Island. Immortal but crippled, your last resort is to take over bodies in order to move, explore… and fight.
