The lovely Witch Bayonetta came to PC last year with a fantastic PC port, featuring higher resolutions, framerates and more. It's also one of Platinum Games best titles ever created with fantastic hack and slash gameplay similar to the Devil May Cry series or God of War. It's also under £5 and runs on nearly any PC, so you'd be crazy to miss out!

RESIDENT EVIL 7 biohazard (Survival Horror / Action)
Horror takes a new form with Resident Evil 7 that launched early last year, with a first person perspective and a shift back to classic horror that made the series great. You'll play as Ethan, who must find his wife Mia and make it out of the Baker's family home. It's also reminiscent of the now cancelled P.T game which was originally due out on PS4.

Dark Souls 3 (Action / Adventure / RPG)
Visit the Kingdom of Lothric if you dare with the hardcore action RPG game Dark Souls 3 which will test your skills in combat, as well as your ability for survival. The highlight of the game are the massive bosses you'll face off against and while you may die a few times, you will eventually manage to beat them and the feeling when you do is satisfying.

Hidden Gem of the Day: Call of Juarez: Gunslinger (Action / FPS)
Today's Hidden Gem is the Western FPS game Call of Juarez: Gunslinger which might tide you over until Red Dead Redemption 2 comes to console later this year. Enjoy some arcade action with a little history (if not always accurate) thrown into the mix for good measure, and while it may not be open world like Red Dead - it makes up for it with a great story and fun combat.
Head to the wild west with Call of Juarez: Gunslinger for 45% off today!
