February 2017 PS4 Video Game Releases (5-11)
There are no video game releases for the PS4 right when the month begins, but the second week brings the console’s next major exclusive from Team Ninja (Dead or Alive, Ninja Gaiden). This Souls-like game has you battling supernatural warriors and mythical beasts as they test your wits and reflexes and tough combat. Tohou Genso Wanderer also keeps the challenge up with a roguelike RPG that is cute on the surface but will eat up players who underestimate the challenge quickly if they aren’t careful.
PS4’s first offerings of the month:
- Feb. 7 – Touhou Genso Wanderer
- Feb. 9 – Nioh

The week of love is full of nothing but war for the PS4. There are three games releasing on Valentine’s Day, all of which involve combat of some sort across three very different battlefields.

Then there’s Deformers, a cute little brawler full of mayhem as you squash and throw competitors off of stages.
Check out the week’s schedule:
- Feb. 14 – For Honor
- Feb. 14 – Sniper Elite 4
- Feb. 14 – Deformers
