The Superman game we’ve always wanted is now on PS5.

No one’s quite been able to make the Superman game that everyone’s been begging for before. From infamous flop Superman 64 to various film tie-ins, no game has totally captured the Man of Steel’s dizzying speeds and unstoppable strength - until a group of students made the superhero game of their dreams, that is.

Sitting at a ‘Very Positive’ rating based on almost 7,000 user reviews, Undefeated pretty easily takes the crown for the best Superman game, official or otherwise.

Five years later, those talented students have formed their own development studio, Indie-us Games, and have now released Undefeated on PS5 for free. To celebrate two million downloads, the team has alsoaddednew events and powers to all versions.

“We are big fans of superhero stories and we want to create an experience that makes you feel just as powerful as your favourite comic or manga heroes,” the sequel’sSteam pageexplains. Genesis “will be the first title in a trilogy of Unreal Engine 5 games paying homage to superheroes while telling an expansive story.”
