But despite its popularity, it has never been available on any platform other than the original PlayStation One. MediEvil 2 is an absolutely insane game, even more so than its predecessor. While it’s certainly looking dated as one of the very early PlayStation One titles, its action still holds up. With gorgeous 3D levels and exploration mechanics that remain supremely satisfying, this is one must-have title for all-new PlayStation Plus. Sure, Ape Escape 2 is technically available on PlayStation 4 and 5 already, but the original game deserves just as much justice.

This title was actually released for the PlayStation 3 and Vita via the PlayStation Store – and was also ported to PSP – but its timeless gameplay deserves to persist in modern minds. It features sleek monkey-catching mechanics, great tongue-in-cheek humour, and plenty of excellent unlockable gadgets. Ape Escape is one of the all-time classics of the PlayStation One era, and was a showcase for the console’s analog joysticks when it was first released.
