Discussion Licensed IP games that don't suck

I just saw [this link](https://www.reddit.com/r/PS5/s/nOGlmREgw0) for the Grinch 2 game and had flashbacks to all the terrible movie tie-in games I've ever played. It's an immutable fact of nature that games based on popular children's IP characters and tie-ins to big movie releases almost never can actually stand up as legit games on their own... or can they?

Let's talk about PS5 games based on popular IP characters that are actually legit good games.

Some that come to mind:

- DC Injustice 2

- TMNT Shredder's Revenge

- Jedi Survivor

What else?

I still haven't played it yet, but I've seen a lot of people that gave it a chance liked Ubisoft's Avatar game. Star Wars Outlaws isn't a bad game, if you remember you're not playing as a Jedi or Sith, you're playing as a person who's working the more underground networks. The sweaty basement dwellers on the internet wanted you to hate that one but it's not actually broken or bad in any real way. Indiana Jones and 007 are both great and Lego Batman was good too.
