In-between game recs?

Hey there baseball bros!
I have officially finished every collection and every program (aside from Extreme), so it’s time for my annual month of non-MLB games. Aside from a brief stretch between new seasons, I really only play MLBTS. So I’m not plugged into the game community. Anyone have a good recommendation for PS5?
If it helps, I loved all of the Spider-man games, Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West, and Hogwarts. Something I can finish in the next 6 weeks would be best. Once MLB26 comes out, I’m back to being a one-game bro.
Thanks bros!

Based on those games you mentioned I would probably suggest Assassin's Creed Odyssey or Shadows depending on your preferred setting (Greece or China). Red Dead Redemption 2 if you want a western setting. Cyberpunk 2077 if you want a gritty cyberpunk setting.
I know it is fashionable to hate Ubisoft these days but their open world maps are always very good in my opinion. They lack a little in story depth compared to the others but they are always fun to run around in.
If you play AC Odyssey play as Kassandra. She is better voiced and acted in my opinion over the male character. It would probably be my first choice as I love the Greek islands. Be prepared though they are very long

Thank you! I’ve had Assassin’s Creed on my Amazon “saved” list for so long that I don’t even remember adding it. But I guess it appealed to me at some point!
I remember playing Red Dead Revolver about 20 years ago. Probably on the Xbox 360 I guess. The updated version looks cool! I will look into those — thank you!

It wont take you a full 6 weeks, and its probably out of your comfort zone, but Expedition 33 deserves all its accolades.
KCD2 is also highly recommended and is open world, but its less...user friendly? I guess? then the Sony games you are used to.

I’m really enjoying KCD2 now, but it’s more of a slow savor for me (I’ll check in on Henry throughout the next iteration of the show).
If you want to finish a game, I’d recommend Ghost of Tsushima. Definitely doable in that time frame, and really a beautiful game.

KCD 2 was my favorite game last year. great game, but while open world is not quite in the same vein as the games mentioned
I started Expedition 33 but could not fully get invested the combat system was not for me.

Yeah, GoT is probably the perfect call for the mix of games mentioned.

I can't think of anything off the top of my head, but I typically use this month to play WWE and MLB again prior to the new games coming out next month... I dabble in College Football, Madden and NBA along the way as well but I was away from gaming for like a year and a half... Feb 2024ish to this past summer so I was late the party for last years games... but yeah long story short I'm playing WWE and MLB to try to get a general idea of how I'm going to approach playing this years game... like if I'm going to make content on YT or stream on Twitch or just play the games and not try to venture back into creating content... March 6th, 13th and 17th I already requested off work, so I'm hoping The Show (and WWE) deliver!

Borderlands 4, Expedition 33, if you have a switch i've been playing Zelda's i'm almost done with Ocarina of Time, trying to play through all of them...meaning i'll stop soon lol.

Red Dead 2 is an incredible game on 1 player story mode but six weeks doesn’t seem like enough time to enjoy that one but it sure is awesome
