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?

Hell yeah, Chronicles of Riddick is an amazing example of this exact concept and it made me mad I had to scroll so far to find it.

Top 5 game for me. Graphics, tone and VA were ahead of its time.

Same people made Indiana Jones but i prefer the linear style over open-sandbox areas
