Overwatch
First on our Playstation 4 games for girls list we find Overwatch, which is the kind of game that some of you parents may not think is something your daughter would be into. After all this is a first person shooter and most of the time these are just all, kill, kill, kill! But Overwatch is different.
Overwatch is about teamwork, finding a character that suits you and making sure you do your part for the team. There are different classes of characters. Some are healers, some are fighters, some have all kinds of cool abilities and gadgets.
Your kid is going to have a lot of fun trying each character out in the various different game modes and finding one that suits them best. Overwatch has some really cool female characters so that is a very nice bonus.
Overwatch is rated T for teen and there is some comical violence and some mild bad language, nothing worse than a PG13 movie.
Kingdom Hearts 2.8
Kingdom Hearts is a very popular series of games based on various Disney movies. In this game you play the role of Sora a young hero who along with Donald Duck and Goofy must save the universe from the evil and destructive Heartless.
This is a really fun action RPG style game that sees you needing to interact with countless different Disney characters as you make your way through many different worlds. Fighting enemies, learning new abilities and uncovering more of the exciting story as you go.
Kingdom Hearts 2.8 is actually a remake of a game called Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance. But this package also contains a Kingdom Hearts movie and an extra playable chapter! You get a ton of content in this game and it is suitable for children as young as 8. But please take note that while this may have Disney characters in it, Kingdom Hearts is actually quite a challenging game.
Gravity Rush 2 – Playstation 4 Games For Girls
Gravity Rush 2 is an awesome PS4 game for girls and one that features a really cool female main character called Kat. Kat is the queen of gravity and when your child plays as her, she is not confined to just walking on the ground! She can switch gravity and walk on pretty much any surface she wants and use gravity to do all kinds of cool attacks.
With this kind of gameplay, Gravity Rush 2 is a good mix of puzzle and action so it is something that many kids are going to really enjoy. Also the game has a very unique Japanese/French kind of art style. Combined with the story of Kat needing to save the universe all the while finding out where she came from. Makes for a game that your child will want to keep on playing.
Gravity Rush 2 is rated T for Teen and we would suggest that it is ideal for kids who are 12 and older and who want something a little more challenging and action packed.
Minecraft Story Mode: The Complete Adventure
You have no doubt heard about Minecraft. Well now there is the awesome Minecraft Story Mode which will be one of the most epic adventures your child ever goes on.
This game sees your daughter playing the role of a character called Jesse (who can be made to be female) and she needs to set out on an adventure to save the world! What’s really cool about this adventure is that along the way your child will have to make some pretty intense decisions. They will get to pick what to say and do in certain situations, but what they say or do will have an effect on the events that take place!
It really is incredible stuff and your child will feel like each decision they make has real consequences. In this game, you get all 8 parts of Minecraft Story Mode and it really is the kind of game that your child will want to play over and over again. Kids as young as 8 will be able to enjoy Minecraft Story Mode.
Little Big Planet 3
Trying to explain to a parent what exactly Little Big Planet 3 is, is actually quite tough. This is a super cute game where the iconic Playstation character Sackboy is joined by three new friends. Toggle, Oddsock and Swoop all of whom have a ton of customization options as well as their own abilities.
Little Big Planet 3 is best described as a platform game and there is a fun story for your child to play through, which they will get a lot of fun out of. But the real fun of Little Big Planet 3 comes from making your own games! That is right, Little Big Planet 3 allows you to make your own levels, with your own story, characters and gameplay elements.
Your child can then upload this level to the Playstation Network and have their friends play it! We are sure that your child will get a lot of joy from making a level then getting you to play it. Then of course laughing as they watch you fail at it! Your child can also download levels that other people have made. There are hundreds of thousands of player-created levels to play.
Kids as young as 8 will be able to get to grips with Little Big Planet 3 very easily.
Mirror’s Edge Catalyst
One of the things that makes Mirror’s Edge Catalyst one of the best Playstation 4 games for girls is the main character of the game, Faith Connors. Faith Connors is one of the most kick butt and coolest female videogame characters of all time. It is awesome that your daughter can play as such a strong female character.
The story of this game is set in a future where mankind could not be any more on the grid and Faith is a runner, a person who wants to be off the grid and free her city from the clutches of this evil corporation who is keeping watch of the whole city.
The story of the game is very engaging and it is something that is really going to hook your child. The gameplay is all in first person, but Faith does not shoot people. She instead uses her incredible athletic ability to run around the city and beat up the bad guys!
The game has a lot of action, but there is no over-the-top violence or bad language. As a matter of fact the game is only rated T for Teen which is not bad at all. Kids 12 and up will be fine with this game.
Dragon Quest Builders
Dragon Quest Builders is a really fun, Playstation 4 exclusive game that is perfect if your daughter does not just like video games but also has a bit of a creative streak inside her. The story of the game is set in the fantasy world of Alefguard.
Like other Dragon Quest games, there is a lot of fighting monsters here. But what this game is really about is building, guess the name of the game kind of gave it away! You will need to build houses, then towns, and all the way to full-on cities! There really is no limit to the things you can build, but be warned to get some of the materials to build the more “exotic” items. You will have to go on a huge adventure.
This is just a really cool and fun game, a game that your child really is going to have a lot of fun with. If you have a daughter who likes creative-based games like Minecraft and Terraria then Dragon Quest Builders is going to be a game they have a lot of fun with.
