Mortal Kombat 1 is available in early access this weekend, so we daresay a fair few of you will be digging into the gory brawler over the coming days. The release calendar is absolutely stacked with must-plays these next two months, though, so we're expecting WAYP to be vibrant and varied through to Christmas.

Lies of P wasn't on my radar at all, but after recording some footage for the review it's got its wooden claws in me.

I’m back from holiday and onto something for review. Time permitting, I’d like to get further into Sea of Stars, as I'm about eight hours in and really enjoying it!

I'm so sorry everyone, but it's still mainly Honkai: Star Rail for me. I will probably also put a bit of time into Mortal Kombat 1 as well, though.

I'm still making inroads into The Crew Motorfest, but I've been having a lot of fun with it so far. The map's really nice, there's lots of variety, and most importantly, the handling is night-and-day better than The Crew 2. I'll definitely stick with this for a while.

With no shortage of games to play, it's no surprise our team is all tackling different titles this weekend. But what about you? Let us know in the comments section below.

A true PlayStation veteran, Sammy's covered the world of PS gaming for years, with an enormous Trophy count to prove it. He also likes tennis games way more than you.

Baldur’s Gate 3 for me this weekend, of course!

I also picked up Marvel’s Spider-Man to see what the fuss about the sequel is. It’s okay so far.

Oh, and I have to avoid Lies of P spoilers until Tuesday.

Starfield — I think Im nearing the end of the main story, will probably wrap up some side missions first as I found them to be the best missions the game has to offer. But after that Im done. And I dont think I’ll replay it as I often do with Bethesdas RPGs, just dont see myself enjoying it enough. Not a bad game at all, its very good most of the time even with all the issues, its just not a great game imo.

The Crew Motorfest — played the trial for a bit. Very positively surprised at how good it was, like a mix of Forza Horizon and Need for Speed. Will be playing this one for sure.

I beat Starfield yesterday on the Xbox Series X after playing it for almost 70 hours.
Currently continuing my playthrough of Ace Attorney: Justice for All I started on my Switch before Starfield.

Planning on starting Firewatch later and finally starting either God of War: Ghost of Sparta or Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time on Ps3.
Might also start Baten Kaitos 1+2 HD on the switch.

Picked up Monster Hunter Rise + Sunbreak and will likely make use of the free multiplayer weekend. Let's see if it can finally dethrone Monster Hunter Freedom Unite as the best one
