Here are some of the most exciting PS5 games set to launch in the coming months.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater is almost here, and fans are eagerly awaiting the return of one of the series’ most iconic entries. Often hailed as one of the best in the franchise, the original Snake Eater left a lasting impact and this faithful remake looks set to honor that legacy. While Hideo Kojima isn’t part of the project, Konami and Virtuos are closely following the original blueprint, opting not to reinvent but to refine. With upgraded visuals and a few modern tweaks, Delta taps into the powerful nostalgia of longtime fans, which explains why anticipation is so high.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is making a return with a full next-gen upgrade for PS5. This modern re-release brings enhanced visuals, updated gameplay, and a fresh roster of skaters. Players can explore new parks, enjoy an expanded soundtrack, and take advantage of improved creation tools to build and share custom skate spots. The game also introduces New Game+ for added replayability and supports cross-platform online multiplayer, letting you skate with friends no matter the platform. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to the series, it’s a great way to experience these iconic skateboarding titles in a whole new way.

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers

Wuchang: Fallen Feathers is a dark and atmospheric Soulslike action RPG set during the chaotic final years of the Ming dynasty. You play as Bai Wuchang, a fierce female pirate cursed with a mysterious illness, as she travels through the war-torn land of Shu. The game blends brutal combat with exploration of a beautifully decayed world filled with supernatural creatures, ancient folklore, and clashing factions. With its rich historical setting and haunting visuals, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers promises a gripping journey through a land where myth and history collide.

Mafia: The Old Country

Mafia: The Old Country marks a return to the franchise’s roots with a stronger focus on story over scale. Set as a prequel to the original trilogy, it abandons the open-world excess of Mafia 3 in favor of a more streamlined, narrative-driven experience. Expect gripping drama, powerful set pieces, and a tightly crafted world that puts characters and storytelling front and center. If the gameplay delivers, this could easily become one of the year’s most acclaimed single-player titles, with developer Hangar 13 aiming to recapture the magic that made the early Mafia games so beloved.

Sword of the Sea

Sword of the Sea is a visually striking indie adventure that combines fluid exploration with fast-paced, sand-surfing movement. Created by a former Thatgamecompany artist known for shaping the iconic style of Journey and Flower, this game adds a dynamic edge to the serene exploration formula. Armed with a mystical sword that doubles as both a weapon and a surfing tool, players will glide through vast, beautifully designed landscapes, uncovering ancient secrets along the way. With its unique blend of motion, atmosphere, and subtle storytelling, Sword of the Sea promises to be a memorable and emotionally rich experience.

Silent Hill F

Silent Hill F signals a bold and haunting new chapter for the legendary horror series. Set in 1960s Japan, this entry leans into psychological terror and classic survival horror mechanics, with an eerie atmosphere and disturbing visuals that suggest a return to the series’ roots. While much about the story remains under wraps, the tone is unmistakably grim and unsettling. As part of Konami’s larger Silent Hill revival, Silent Hill F could mark a surprising and welcome turnaround for the publisher one that few saw coming, but horror fans are eager to embrace.

Dying Light: The Beast

Kyle Crane returns in Dying Light: The Beast, the next chapter in the horror series, arriving this August. Originally planned as DLC for Dying Light 2, it evolved into a full standalone game. Revealed at Gamescom 2024, the story follows a mutated, super-powered Crane as he hunts for revenge, blending brutal combat with the series’ signature parkour and survival horror elements.

Death Stranding 2: On The Beach

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is set to arrive on PS5 in just over a week, and anticipation couldn’t be higher. Building on the strange, atmospheric world of the original, this sequel promises to push everything further from its emotional storytelling and cryptic lore to its haunting environments and bizarre characters. Hideo Kojima is once again steering the project, and with the Decima engine, core gameplay mechanics, and cinematic style already well-established, expectations are sky-high. If the first game was a bold experiment, On the Beach looks poised to refine and elevate that vision into something even more mind-bending and unforgettable.

Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound

Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound was unveiled in a surprise announcement back in April, and it’s already shaping up to be a standout release in the series’ ongoing revival. Launching on July 31, this side-scrolling platformer comes from the talented team behind Blasphemous, blending brutal action with a dark, stylized aesthetic that’s catching a lot of attention. Early impressions have been strong, with some calling it the most promising entry in Ninja Gaiden’s modern resurgence. With tight combat, sharp level design, and a fresh take on the classic formula, Ragebound could be a major highlight of the summer.

Ghost Of Yotei

Ghost of Yotei has taken the spotlight in a big way, soaring to the top of our most-anticipated games list and leaving even major titles like Death Stranding 2 trailing behind. Set to launch this October as a PS5 exclusive, the sequel to Ghost of Tsushima promises to build on everything that made the original great. With expectations of deeper, more refined combat, a more interactive and reactive open world, and a richer, more emotionally complex narrative, Ghost of Yotei is shaping up to be a major milestone for Sucker Punch and a potential Game of the Year contender.
