Best Turn Based Games on PS4

BelovedAunt

I was never a fan of turn based combat but after recently playing the two South Park games and Child of Light on PS4 I've become fond of them. Any other good ones on PS4 lads?

Final Fantasy 7 remake if you haven't played it already and don't mind playing a 21 year old game, also darkest dungeon.

Thanks lads! I should have mentioned, I've been playing them with my GF who isn's a gamer, so the more simple the better.

I'm playing at the moment.

Addictive but utterly maddening, h
I've had to restart twice because everything is so terribly explained and you can get yourself in situations where its nigh on impossible to avoid a gameover.

In that case approach Darkest Dungeon with care. It's a great game but it's entirely based on RNG. If either of you a susceptible to gamer rage your controllers are at risk.

Maybe one to consider too is Divinity original Sin 2. Can be a bit tricky as there is so much choice,but its probably the best CRPG ever released on Consoles..

Personally out of the ones listed I'd go for Valkyria Chronicles, X-Com 2, Persona 5 and Divinity. Valkyria Chronicles 4 is out soon as well.

If you want something similar to the combat in the south park games but more family friendly the Costume Quest games are pretty fun.

Persona 5!!!!

Thanks lads! There’s a lot to check out there

I loved first x com and spent a lot of time with it, but could not last more then few hours in second game. The idea that it is always trying to rush me with limited time takes all enjoyment out of turn based games like x com. Such a disappointing game for me.

I would almost suggest op to buy switch with Mario Rabbids. X com with a less bull**** and your misses will have a lot more fun with it.

This is a BRILLIANT list of games to avoid.

Ps. Fuccck turn based rpgs AND while on the rant fuccck any game with quick time events.

Only thing worse than these two is random battles!!! Ahhhhhhhhh! It’s not fuccccking 1995!

I felt the same until recently but my GF's inability to play games meant they were the only real option, and I'm hooked now

JRPGs and their awful turn based combat makes me want to stick forks in my eyes, but an actual turn based strategy game like Civ or X-Com is a real joy for me and they've only become so in the last ten years since my reflexes have dulled and I can't play competitive fps games like I used to
