FIFA 19, Life Is Strange 2, Hollow Knight, more coming to PS Store this week

“The Beautiful Game” gets updated for a new year as EA Sports is back with their latest soccer simulation, FIFA 19. The game will be available to download for the PS4 this Friday in a Standard Edition, a Champions Edition, and an Ultimate Edition.

Also set to launch later this week for the PS4 is Dontnod’s Life Is Strange 2 – Episode 1: What Doesn’t Kill Us. Leaving Acadia Bay behind, the second Life Is Strange adventure will follow two brothers, Sean and Daniel Diaz, who are on the run from the police.

Elsewhere on the PlayStation Store this week, Team Cherry will launch Hollow Knight: Voidheart Edition for the PS4. Originally released for the PC in 2017 and the Switch earlier this Summer, the new Voidheart Edition includes the full game, as well as all previously-released downloadable content.

Finally this week, a pair of strategy RPG sequels for the PS4 will give players two very different viewpoints into the genre from Sega (Valkyria Chronicles 4) and Weappy Studio (This Is the Police II).

You can learn more about the rest of this week’s additions to the PlayStation Store after the break.
