    Hi
    Am looking to get a PS4 game for a thirteen year old and need some help.
    Although I am sure he has played some 18 rated games, santa can't be seen to bring one of these as he has younger siblings.
    Think he prefers shooting games to car games, already has FIFA and like most his age is into Fortnite.
    With this in mind I was thinking of either battlefield 5, or player unknown both of which are rated 16, so think I can get away with that.
    Which one of the above would generally be regarded as a better buy? Or is there any other ones I should consider?
    All of the newish/trendy games I have been looking at are 18s.
    Thanks and Merry Christmas

    Battlefield V is a great game. There's a lot of outcry against it at present but have no issues getting a game, it's life span may be shortened by the community uproar but it is excellent value. PUBG is a bit of an unknown to me. I don't play Battle Royales but this is dwarfed by Fortnite. Are they not free to play?
    PUBG on PS4 is supposed to be pretty good but I know next to nothing about it.
    It depends what his friends are playing.

    Good shout for spiderman but he already has it.
    Think his pals are just playing Fortnite, are battlefield and pubg online only?

    Battlefield has a campaign but it's very short and quite easy. They are introducing a BR mode but for the moment it is primarily an online shooter.

    If single-player is an option, there's Horizon Zero Dawn too. It's pretty great, rated 16+ and down to £24.99 from Amazon for the Complete Edition at the moment.

    Yeah he already played and traded horizon and uncharted. Either of which would be perfect as he loved both
