Returnal

The hostile planet has a dense environment as she looks for a way back.

After dying once Selene discovers she is resurrected right away and is stuck in a time loop, waking up near the ship and having to start over all again.

The game is played from a behind view as Selene traverses the environments and fights extraterrestrial entities.

It consists of six biomes, each with a distinct biotechnological theme, environment and enemies.

Death is permanent and an intended part of the gameplay, as the knowledge from runs is used to push deeper into the alien world.

There are also several story fragments at certain points, through animated cut-scenes or interactive sequences played from a first-person view with elements of horror and mystery.

Each run takes place in a unique take on the biome with reshuffled rooms, randomized enemies and items.

There are also several metroidvania elements as Selene gradually gets access to new abilities, one of the few game elements that are carried over between runs.

Exploring a biome eventually leads to a boss encounter where multi-tier fights borrow heavily from bullet hell games, a developer trademark, as Selene has to dodge a large number of projectiles.

She has swift movement that incorporates running, jumping, dashing with a brief window of invincibility, a powerful melee attack and a single ranged weapon.

There are several weapons in the game, but only one can be carried at a time.

Returnal for PlayStation 5 is currently worth €36.90 loose, €21.34 complete in box, and €24.23 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Returnal, loose is €36.90 and CIB is €21.34 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.

The PAL version of Returnal is currently worth €36.90 loose, versus €27.35 for NTSC-U. Regional price differences usually come down to print run size and regional collector demand.
