I know we’re only in August 2026, but I’ve been thinking a lot about 2027.
After a bunch of delays to avoid GTA 6, 2027 is already steadily becoming a massively stacked year for PS5. I mean we’re getting a new God of War game six weeks into the new year.
So over on the Push Square YouTube channel, I’m breaking down 20 games that have confirmed 2027 release dates or release windows. There are franchises making their PlayStation debut, long-awaited remakes, and the next games from critically acclaimed developers.
I’ve deliberately not included anything that could launch next year, like Alien Isolation 2, which currently doesn’t have a confirmed release window. We’re sticking to hard facts with this one.
That means I’ll be talking about a game like The Wolf Among Us 2, which I’m still in disbelief is even releasing next year. It’s been like 13 years since the first game launched and nearly a decade since the sequel was announced!
Anyway, check out the video and let me know which PS5 games you’re personally dying to get your hands on in 2027.





Comments 105
Let's not forget all the Level 5 games that keep getting delayed; maybe 2027 will be the year of Professor Leyton and DecaPolice lol
Stacked and also the last year of discs so I’ll be stacking up!
I don't want to watch a video, I come here to read articles. 🤷♀️
@CrazyOldDave agreed
The great race to get your game out before the discs die. Or else people like me will throw rotten tomatoes at the developers (it’s a joke)
Code Veronica remake is top of my list, also Tomb Raider!!!
I keep seeing comedic videos of guys sitting down, turning on their PS5, scrolling through games, then turning off the console. The headline is usually “The state of PS5 right now”. The comments section usually is full of people in agreement.
Anyway. I don’t get it! There has never been a time in gaming in which there has been so much to choose from! There’s something for everyone! There’re so many highly regarded games I’ve still not played because I’m finding lesser known gems (Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, Echoes of the End, A Plague Tale: Requiem, etc,) that are so great.
A playstation website putting an Xbox game in their thumbnail. Shameful.
@AhmadSumadi Sometimes it's the effect of having too many games ironically. They put on the console, everything feels overwhelming and they end up not playing anything. That's why some people rush through games or want short games because they are in a hurry to finish up their pile and then it feels like a chore and they dont appreciate each individual game. It helps a lot to focus on a few at a time and resist the urge of buying too many.games.
Good Video. But for the impatient folks like me who want to read an article:

@CrazyOldDave
But ... but ... but ... discs! ... Not ... allowed ... to ... enjoy ... games ... Only ... allowed ... to ... moan ... about ... end ... of ... physical ... gaming ... Must ... hate ... all ... PS5 ... news ... Must ... not ... play ... PS5 ... games ... Aaarghh!!!
For me console gaming ends with GTA VI. I will get that one, play it till I vomit from it and then I'm out. The future of modern gaming and PlayStation looks too bleak for me.
Of course I am aware that GTA VI is a big part of that future, and that it is shaping it in this bleak direction though.
@ecurb7 Comments like these are pathetic, because you're actively cheering for higher digital prices, zero ownership, the death of small businesses and the second hand market, in a time when gaming is as expensive as ever.
But hey, bend over the table again for Sony and billionaire CEOs. 👍
1. Post a game list.
2. Have some integrity PS and advocate for physical media (but you won't)
3. 1? exclusive out of this is a joke. Sony just doesn't care anymore.
@ecurb7 The thing is that for a lot of us, it’s obtaining the disc that makes part of the fun for us.
Each year for the past few years has been pretty stacked. Its why i laugh at those who complain about lack of games or lack of good games.
@AhmadSumadi AAA, AA and Indies there's endless amounts to choose from. Its crazy how people want to downplay it.
Every year is stacked with great games for every platform
@CrazyOldDave agreed
Either way I'm gonna have some on backlog lol always do.
@EVIL-C I was just making a joke about people who have to turn every Playstation article into a moan about physical discs ... thanks for proving me right!
@ecurb7 for what it’s worth, there are games I’m looking forward to very much in 2027. Spyro, Persona 4 Remake, and Bloodstained 2.
I'm really looking forward to 2027 in the gaming landscape, going to be quite a lot going on that I can't wait to experience!
Some good reminders from the list mentioned actually, so thank you for that! Bring on so many of them as soon as possible!
Oh, and just so we are clear, I shall be asking for donations for all my future purchases on the Sony platform if someone wishes to tell me which item, be it digital or physical I should purchase next.
I haven't set up a GoFundMe yet, so hold off on the generosity for the moment.
(This is humour in good faith, feel free to smirk or laugh)
@ecurb7 Your comment made me chuckle, so thank you! Keep the humour flowing, the last thing this place needs is to tighten its grip on squeezing out the fun that can still be had.
@yazzika "For me console gaming ends with GTA VI. I will get that one, play it till I vomit from it and then I'm out. The future of modern gaming and PlayStation looks too bleak for me.
Of course I am aware that GTA VI is a big part of that future, and that it is shaping it in this bleak direction though."
This right here is the major issue. I have so many friends who are really upset about the end of physical games and pretty much ready to give up on Playstation after the PS5, but because they all want to play GTA6 so much they've given in and pre-ordered it for £90. This is going to send exactly the opposite message to everyone in the industry who doesn't understand video games but has a strong influence.
No.1 for me is final fantasy vii revelations and unless Gen Atlus is also gonna launch that year it's not even close.
Spyro, Veronica and Metro round out the games I want on ps5, with Xenoblade Genesis waiting on the switch side of things for me.
I hope 2027 is the year naughty dog release intergalatic surely its time its crazy to think theyve not released a new game on ps5 excluding remakes and remasters other than that fable final fantasy crazy taxi resudent evil veronika and god of war laurey should be good and mega man as well
@ecurb7 to be honest I'm getting just as irritated by the people complaining about the people complaining about disks, you're every where now, it's not helping 😅
@bassjas12 1 first party game. Tragic isn’t it
@bassjas12 Appreciated, thank you🙏 I'm stubborn and refuse to spend more of my time on a video 😂 because they want extra ad revenue from YouTube.
Hopefully Light no Fire. It’s been crickets since it was announced.
The very last year I will be a gamer after 35 years it's finally over, tired of the corporate greed.
Its just Persona 4 Revival for me, and Crazy Taxi World Tour/FFVII Revelation if they come out on disc. I'd like to say Persona 6 as well, but there's no chance of that happening in 2027. After these games, I'm pretty much out.
@ecurb7 Got a laugh from me 👍
Persona 4 and FF7 Revelation for me.
I also heard, from a man down the pub, that the following books are going to be released in 2027: The Winds of Winter, The Doors of Stone and The Thorn of Emberlain.
A Dream of Spring to follow in 2028.
@Old-Red And they willl buy every other title they are interested in too and probably also the PS6. There wont be many really boycotting the digital-only future bc they want to play the games too bad to be giving them up
@CrazyOldDave amen
@Dampsponge What will you choose for your last game? Had any thoughts on the last ever game you play?
I vote Pappa the Rapper, whilst on LSD, but seeing as that likely isn’t legal, maybe a light shandy and some party poppers.
Sony may actually have done us a favour with their announcement as it will steer the conversation on things like lifetime digital licences.
Before they could say you can buy a physical copy if you wanted to retain the access now they and the governments of the world will have to look how digital products are licenced.
Rather than trying to fight for a dying medium maybe people could fight for this instead.
@ButteredCrumpet the thing is with life you'll never know when your last game is going to be, but it all started with Sonic the Hedgehog on the Mega Drive when I was 5 years old, so if I had a choice that's probably how it would end.
@CrazyOldDave games are going digital and gaming websites are going video. Writing is too much effort, like making disks.
@Dampsponge That would be an excellent choice! My gosh I miss SEGA consoles, I will forever cherish my time with my Dreamcast, and loved the interactive memory card almost as much as the games haha.
Only two games I want so far. Fable and Resident Evil Veronica.
God of War Laufey
Persona 4 Revival
FFVII: Revelation
Lords of the Fallen 2
When it goes on sale because RE games are too short:
RE Code Veronica
When it goes on sales because it's a DLC:
The Witcher 3: Songs of the Past
The rest doesn't even remotely interest me.
Man im not happy about the discontinuation of discs either but the negativity despite the amount of great looking games coming out is just crazy
@ecurb7 I thought your comment was both funny and reflected perfectly just where gamers mentality and psychology is at this time. Those who didn't find it funny..well it speaks volumes.
@Jamesy-2013 same here. I'm not happy about an all digital future but I'll just buy my games in sales. Those that are here saying they won't buy another PlayStation console are full of it. When the PS6 drops they will buy it and we will have to remind them all about the time they said they wouldn't support Sony any more..when they are here complaining about the games again.
@ButteredCrumpet seeing the Dreamcast boot up herring that music brings back so many memories, toy racers was the first game I ever played Online.
@Dampsponge Oh my gosh, Toy Racers! That's the game I was trying to remember the other day! I wanted to pick it up when I'm in Japan, and then get a UK copy too. Just to sit in my cabinet more than anything.
I could not for the life of me remember, huh, well the more you know, thank you!
I also remember getting the 56K modem adapter, Toy Racers and then Chu Chu Rocket, it was a free Dreamcast game you could ask SEGA for on disc, and sure enough it arrived and I was hooked for a while.
@Northern_munkey Oh, I'll remind them, I'll even keep a spreadsheet.
so many games never enough time to actually play to play them. now give me a release date for those wireless speakers please and thanks.
The only game i'm most excited to get is Virtua Fighter Crossroad.
@PuppetMaster I’m interested in that game too, but I’m kind of put off from all the swearing in the trailer. It’s nice to finally have the answer to “what if Virtua Fighter had a plot” but I expected it to be more like Tekken in the way that plot was told.
Fable, Metro, Witcher 3 DLC are definitely on my list. Imagine being some lucky soul who's never played The Witcher 3 before then they get to play the original game, the previous DLCs and this upcoming one. I'm kind of curious about Crazy Taxi too, the Dreamcast is one of those few consoles that I haven't yet gotten to so I haven't played the original. Edit I just saw it's also on PS2 and picked up a copy on eBay.
@ShadowRJ I think you can expect VF Crossroads will have better plot and narrative than Tekken if you look at the writing team:
@Nf157 the people complaining about the people complaining about disks have become worse than the people complaining about the disks 😂
@PuppetMaster i'm happy to see that virtua fighter hasn't been forgotten about and i'm really happy its coming back , tbh with all these fighting games kind of making me consider getting that new fight stick.
@Northern_munkey @Jamesy-2013 @ecurb7 I mean, you're the reason these companies get to do whatever they want. Blatant anti-consumer practices and their downright dystopian effects on the industry are nothing compared to your low impulse control.
It's not enough that you lap up whatever sludge falls off their conveyor belt, you'll actively mock people who refuse to do so out of principle. It's gross.
@Nalim why would they bother when everything will be streamed on sites like Netflix in the near future anyway? GTA6 is clearly going to be announced for Netflix, and other publishers will follow suit.
They're tied to the PS5 for the time being, but there's no incentives to stick with PlayStation after this generation, especially when all their games are physical. I really don't think Sony has thought this through.
Is something wrong with me? I'm not interested in any of these games...(I will pick up Veronica because its new RE, but the original is my most hated RE...)
I imagine some stuff will be moved around
Last year playing PlayStation, hopefully we go out with a bang.
Who is Senemua? At least learn the names of the games properly.
@Kingy you know nothing about me. You couldn't be more off the mark if you tried.
@Kingy Good grief - we're only discussing video games here, it's not life and death! Using words like 'dystopian' to describe the fact that an entertainment company is no longer going to be making the little discs that video games used to come on - though the games themselves will continue to be made - kinda proves my point about the lack of perspective (and sense of humour) of some people in this debate.
@datamonkey Exactly 👍
God of Cube will always be easy to make fun of.
@CrazyOldDave Agreed. If I wanted to watch a video I would’ve went on YouTube. I check news article websites to… well, read news articles. I read when I don’t have the ability to watch videos (being in the office, in public, etc.). Clicking on a post on a news website and finding out I can’t consume the content is a bit annoying. Love pushsquare, but constructive criticism is okay imo.
Busy for some but souls like and horror don't do it for the gamer in me. Tomb raider, Expanse, Exodus and Wolf Among are up there. Fable too but how are you supposed to fit them all in... 😂😂😂
@CrazyOldDave yep, we all want a list to check quickly
@ecurb7 you sound like a character from idiocracy. Funny sure, but woefully oblivious to the underlying problem. Yes, this is trivial as an isolated issue, but it's just another symptom of where we are going and in many ways we are there already... Idiocracy
@ecurb7 "Don't ask questions. Just consume product and think about next product". Great perspective.
We offer a physical version and digital has outstripped it for years. Millions sold. That said. I want to own games, not stream them
@Kingy I literally said i wasnt happy about the situation and you know nothing about me, the topic was games to be excited for next year which might i add will still have discs
Not much that I'm interested in for next year atm. Just two games, Final Fantasy VII Revelation and Muramasa Revenant Blades.
If it stays that way I may get a chance to burn through my backlog.
@Kingy there is a thing called sarcasm. You should investigate it.
@ecurb7 it's as if they are lining themselves up to prove our points. Must be awful to be devoid of any kind of sense of humour.
@Jamesy-2013 welcome to push Square.
@Old-Red Exactly. Feel bad contributing to it.
God of war laufey is going to be good.kratos the goat 🐐 👑 will have his own game again.word up son
@Northern_munkey Sacrcasm is when I believe something, but I don't want the stigma associated with said beliefs so I say it's just a joke bro.
If he was joking, he wouldn't have had to double down in the replies. And for someone who thinks I'm so off the mark about your character, you sure are vocal in agreeing with a point he apparently isn't serious about.
Why can't these mean ol' commenters just shut up about disks already so I can indulge in my addiction without shame? Or how about the fact that Sony can and will take any digital license from you at any time? Or how they invest large amounts of money into soulless live service garbage then shut down talented studios to subsidize their losses in that pursuit. And more terrible practices over such a short period of time.
For all of these there are white knights in the comments here essentially telling us we're only allowed to care about something for "x" amount of time. And that seems to be like a week until they start telling us to leave the multi-billion dollar company alone, because otherwise what would we do without Sony's mid-ass video games that play themselves.
If this was the "point" you guys are so eager to prove then you've done an exceptional job.
@Kingy
sarcasm /sär′kăz″əm/
noun
A cutting, often ironic remark intended to express contempt or ridicule. A form of wit characterized by the use of such remarks. "detected a hint of sarcasm in his voice."
A keen, reproachful expression; a satirical remark uttered with some degree of scorn or contempt; a taunt; a gibe; a cutting jest.
"Sacrcasm is when I believe something, but I don't want the stigma associated with said beliefs so I say it's just a joke bro."
Sarcasm is not remotely something you believe, but don't want the stigma associated with said belief.
That is how you choose to interpret sarcasm, however, that is not how the world, or many dictionaries of the world interpret the world.
And as for your comments regarding (sarcasm used correctly) "why can't I just indulge in my addiction without shame ..."
Well, for many it isn't actually an addiction, because we are psychologically healthy, grown men and women with lives and responsibilities and it's a hobby.
In addition, shame, ah, that old chestnut. Yes, again, we adults do not care, nor wish to be shamed, not because it hurts our precious feelings. This isn't Primary or High School, it's the fact that no one has the right to shame someone for a choice in which is hurting no one else in their personal lives.
If I load a disc into my PS5, I am in no way shape or form impacting your life, the moment you jump on here and indicate people are being precious over not wishing to receive shame, well, that makes you immediately look immature.
I am guessing you're quite young, and if not, at least you now know how you come across in written form. However, you seem to be using many arguments for your own thinking to then attempt to pull down someone else, when in fact it's you who have proven far more about yourself than a "Munkey" who also happens to be Northern in decent.
Both the digital licensing issues and the soulless live service slop you mention are things the person you tagged has even accused Sony of doing too in the past.
So, really, in essence you're either preaching to the choir and he will agree with some of your points being of importance, or you're wrong in other regards due to your lack of understanding of what sarcasm means.
And if you do genuinely believe "Sony's mid-ass video games" are that "mid-ass", whatever the hell that means to children nowadays, then why in the world are you on a PS5 news site or even using a PlayStation.
Honestly, the way you word things indicate you're either from a 1990 Blockbuster in Seattle, or you're young, so either a time traveller, or I'm having a stroke fuelled day dream or you're young.
Genuinely feels like I'm in the world of Bill & Ted.
Either way, I suggest the game of chess you're playing stops until you know the rules of the game, because you will not win. Start with checkers, read up about sarcasm from a Dictionary (not Urban), and go ahead with your day.
I will give you one crumpet for your safe travels and passage through the time machine you used to get here, and please close the Stargate afterwards.
Really only about 5 games for me so not a great year. God of war, ff7 revelation, fable, exodus, resident evil veronica. Im not totally sold on fable and its coming out at bad time. I think the complaint from sony fans is first party. That is what makes a console. Only one confirmed next year. Pretty sad this far into the generation.
@ButteredCrumpet Thanks for the big empty-calorie diatribe that doesn't begin to broach what I was talking about, reddit commander-in-chief.
Maybe next time use your best witty remark and not every single one that comes to mind
@Kingy Yep, definitely a young adult.
Allow me to simplify things for you, as clearly it’s needed.
1) A diatribe of words uses roughly the same amount of calories as breathing. So assuming I was close to rest state metabolically, it would mean my diatribe did indeed contain/use calories.
What you really meant was it provided no substance, was lacking in true meaning and wasn’t containing anything worth your time. See how that sounds so much more well thought out as a paragraph than what you wrote? It contains impact as a statement, yours just relates to a moot point. A moot point when served as a proposition for a debate only serves to weaken it.
Basically, you are taking a cheap, ill thought out attempt to pad your chest out and insult me, giving the impression my words mean nothing. However, seeing as in this online space we are equal unless proving otherwise, my words mean nothing less than yours.
However I choose to stage them certainly shows a lot more impact. That’s the difference.
2) I don’t use Reddit, nor would I want any title there, as it holds no power and is simply only a falsehood to prop up people who wish to command control over others. Likely due to having little to no real power in the physical world they inhabit. If anything a moderator there would have shut this conversation down long before now. I want conversations to be had, not less. Again, moot point, as you’ve mentioned a platform I don’t use and alluded to my wanting to obtain a title there I do not wish. So another moot point.
3) You mention wanting me to use my best witty remark, but that’s just it, it’s impossible to choose, I have so many. Especially when it comes to your straw man arguments to bring someone down. I mean the list is nigh on endless.
So what you really mean, is again, due to your lack of maturity you wish for quick, snappy, TikTok/X remarks to be made so you can fire quick and snappy (what you believe are well thought out), comments back at people.
I get that, but that’s not a conversation of any substance. You haven’t addressed the fact your statement of fact regarding the word sarcasm was incorrect, which propped up your entire argument, you haven’t addressed the fact you’re a hypocrite for then stating people wish to avoid ridicule (which assumes you feel they should have ridicule), for gaming, despite asking a commenter to think about how their comments come across.
This isn’t even getting in to the fact you then went on to use the blanket statement of addiction.
Honestly, I could go on, but as you’ve made clear, you don’t want a conversation, you want to express your opinion, then leave.
Witty comments though, if you want them, Munkey and I have that covered if that’s all you want.
Now go watch some old British comedies and learn how to play along better, honestly I’m fine to be insulted, but you’re just throwing a stone at a wall only to hit yourself.
@ButteredCrumpet Idk why you thought a second one of these would be more compelling
@Kingy Yep, still a child. Such a shame, didn’t even want to defend yourself one bit. You’re literally the kind of person you first described in your rebuttals to Northern Munkey.
One day you’ll learn, but I suspect it shall not be today.
I do wish you well though, been a wonderful time being proven right so consistently about my assumptions of you.
@Northern_munkey yeah, we all just don't understand humour. Cracked the case. Oh wait... is that sarcasm, so funny but some just don't get it... I guess we all need a solid definition of sarcasm by @ButteredCrumpet who most likely copy pastes ai responses with the largest possible volume of words. It looks very smart. The only thing missing are emoji bullet points.
@tameshiyaku good lord give it up. I've moved on buddy maybe you should too..getting a bit stalkerish now..
@ButteredCrumpet If growing up means I gotta start talking like you, I think I'll pass bud.
You aren't owed good faith engagement, and you won't earn it from me by skirting around the point of my argument just so you can play internet sophist
@Northern_munkey stalking? 🤣 So random. I think you've been more actively engaged here than me. You must be practicing these "I'm to cool to care" comebacks in front of the mirror that you believe them yourself.
@tameshiyaku and ignored..
@tameshiyaku I don’t use AI, as it’s just regurgitated plagiarism for the weak minded.
And again, like the other commenter attempting to be insightful and ending up as a hypocritically working against themselves, pointing out the length of responses.
You do realise moaning, and berrating someone for their thought out responses, forming a conversation, alluding to their length being too long … is an insult to your own intelligence, right?
We all need to at a minimum understand this. I know social media has trained many a human psyche to believe in shorter responses being more meaningful, yet that doesn’t stand when all you bring to the table is an insult.
Your stating, now as the second person with nothing to add other than an insult, that my responses are lengthy, is actually you openly stating you don’t find your reading comprehension and attention span to be significant enough to enter into this debate.
I suggest if you fail to see the relevance in what I am writing you make a formal complaint to those for which have been responsible for your education, as they have deeply failed you.
And with that, we go on into the next day, on the ignore list and live no doubt a happier life for it.
Re-read what you wrote, it literally is just an insult, nothing to add to this site, this conversation, nothing. Yet you did so in an effort to claim my efforts are less than yours and in the same ilk as AI, that’s it, that’s all after hours of this article you wish to bring to the table.
I don’t live for ignoring people on this site, as I think it’s great that we share our differing opinions, but all you’ve done is prove you have no opinion, so makes you less worthy of a commentator than an actual AI program embedded in a data centre.
Essentially, with no opinion and just insults you serve no purpose in a conversation amongst adults, and as such, I shall ignore. I hope you really go on to do great things in your life, and remember to give the things you love in life more attention than you pay to your writing.
All the best stranger, may you forever remain one to me.
@tameshiyaku Dude, it's so irritating. These guys try so hard to have this veneer of apathy because they think not caring about a topic makes them look above it all.
If they actually didn't care they wouldn't be in the comment section being professional Sony sweepers lmao, who are they trying to fool??
To be fair to you, @Jamesy-2013 I shouldn't have roped you in with the other two and instead tagged you in a separate, less harshly worded response. I'm sorry about that.
What I was trying to get across with your original comment was that the negativity is warranted, and that these companies are only going to keep destroying the industry bit by bit if their playerbase continues to forgive everything they do because the next Marvel's Scrumblo or God of Literally Who is coming out.
But I shouldn't have treated you like you were antagonizing people in the comments, because you weren't.
@ButteredCrumpet tldr
@bassjas12 Thank you for the list, sending you an awkward virtual high five.
@Kingy for not caring they sure always need to have the last word.
Just prime examples of the type of customer that corporations love, after spending decades breeding this sheepish mindset. Doing so much of the work for them for free and hindering any sort of solidarity amongst gamers to punch upward when we get screwed over.
And all that talk is either edgelord comments that can be recontextualize as misunderstood humour when confronted, ala JD Vance. Others come with some pseudo intellectual hodgepodge ala Jordan Peterson. It's just sad.
@Kingy and ignored..
does pushsqaure hate indies?
@bassjas12 thanks.
Every single comment section on here, turns into "The sky is falling, we're doomed" over the end of physical.🔥
Come on people. Seriously, this is such a first world problem, to the point, that it has become embarrassing now. 😂
@Northern_munkey The irony of you feeling the need to announce this is not lost on me.
@Toot1st No they doesn't.
@PuppetMaster why aint there any in this list then
I barely remember what's in the next few months of 2026 I don't care. It's stacked but do I care about any of them. NOPE! XD
2027, same thing, a fair amount of big releases, do I remember them all, no, do I care. No. Gaming is bland and forgettable at this point. The industry hasn't made a compelling video game in years.
Even ones I was excited for don't have the personality or gameplay ideas to justify and are just bad.
