The PlayStation 5 is looking to dominate the console landscape with its incredible library of games. Like the rest of the industry, Sony saw several major game delays in 2022 (and more this year), but has since dropped several new hit games like God of War Ragnarok, the Resident Evil 4 remake, and Forspoken, among others. There are plenty of games out on PS5 for every kind of gamer.
And there are plenty more great titles on the way — don’t forget to check out our list of the best upcoming PS5 games that will come out later this year.
Diablo IV
Baldur's Gate 3
God of War Ragnarök
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a sequel to 2019’s excellent Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and expands on it in almost every way. The story feels more ambitious and personal at the same time, as all of the worlds players can explore as Cal are more densely packed with content than before, and combat has been refined to be even more fun thanks to new stances and perks players can use.
It’s an entirely single-player Star Wars adventure and a meaty one at that. This game can easily keep you entertained for 20 hours or more and tells the most engaging Star Wars narrative since Andor. This is one of the best Star Wars games ever made, so fans of the franchise shouldn’t miss out on it.
Street Fighter 6
Resident Evil 4
Before you jump in for your hit of nostalgia, you should know that this isn’t 2005’s Resident Evil 4. Instead of putting out a shot-for-shot remake — a truly transformative remake that isn’t afraid to throw out what didn’t work and put its own creative spin on everything from story to level design to its wildly improved combat. Capcom delivers everything you want in more in this stellar revisit to one of the most iconic titles in the Resident Evil series.
Remnant II
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II
Overwatch 2
Like a Dragon: Ishin!
The Last of Us Part I
Stray
The Callisto Protocol
Marvel's Midnight Suns
Marvel’s Midnight Suns strategy RPG that follows both iconic Avengers characters and more obscure supernatural ones as they take on Lilith, Mother of Demons. Players can walk around and mingle with the other heroes between missions, while its turn-based strategy gameplay stands out from Firaxis’ previous titles by putting the focus on card-based abilities.
Horizon Forbidden West
Elden Ring
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
Returnal
DEATHLOOP
It Takes Two
Tales of Arise
Final Fantasy XVI
Final Fantasy XVI isn’t as impressive as some past installments in the series but it’s still a really enjoyable, beautiful action RPG hybrid that continues Final Fantasy’s long legacy of drastically changing things up with each new mainline entry.
