GAMES OUT THIS MONTH JANUARY

MXGP 2020: THE OFFICIAL MOTOCROSS VIDEOGAME It’s time to get dirty once again with the official motocross game – now bringing all the action to the new-gen PlayStation 5 with 4K graphics and more speed than ever. Play the real-life 2020 championship with all the official riders, bikes, teams and circuits, free roam about the playground, or construct your very own tracks and share them with the world. HITMAN III Ruthless professional hitman Agent 47 is back, and he's out to complete his 'World of Assassination' trilogy. The dramatic conclusion to the series sends him on an itinerary that would make even James Bond envious, hopping all over the globe in order to carry out his most important contracts yet. The main attraction campaign mode will deliver a mass of hot sandbox action, plus there's the added challenge of elusive targets, gameplay escalations and contracts mode to keep you on your tippy-toes. Plus, if you own either or both of the first two Hitman experiences, all locations from those can be imported and played in Hitman III . Meanwhile, if you have PS VR then you get an extra treat, with a special first-person mode to really immerse you in all of the assassination action via 20-plus locations from throughout the trilogy. 20/1/21 STEALTH MULTIPLAYER?
