When you think of action-adventure titles, it’s usually a game with incredible set pieces, varied locations and a one-and-done narrative. Some titles portend to more, though, offering up memorable storylines but continuously giving in terms of content, additional activities and interesting things to do. Check out our picks for the best action-adventure games that fit this category.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 - Last Stand Suit

Insomniac Games had much riding on it after the success of Marvel’s Spider-Man. How would it take advantage of the PS5’s technology? What direction would it go with the introduction of the Symbiote and Venom? While some looked at it as more of an iterative sequel than revolutionary, it’s interesting how much it does so well. The ability to play as either Miles Morales or Peter Parker is great, especially considering each has unique suits and abilities, while the Symbiote adds an extra layer of brutality to the latter.

Then there are all the technical improvements, from the almost non-existent loading times to the always-on ray tracing and increased scale of New York City. With so much to do and collect, the pacing never suffers for it, delivering a memorable story and fights. It also doesn’t hurt that new suits and features continue to be added with post-launch updates.
