How do you guys feel about this new path/direction that PS is doing with Director’s Cut

What game do you guys think will do a Director’s Cut next?

And if you could choose any PlayStation game (PS4 preferably) to do a Director’s Cut, what game would that be?

Bonus: You can include ALL the features and additions for the game!
