The PS5 is still in its infancy and there has only been a handful of PS5 exclusives that have been released. That said, the games that you can play on the console right now are absolutely worth your while. These games are incredibly well-done and you would not want to miss the chance to play them. Here are the best PS5 games of all time, or at least, the best PS5 games so far.
Hey everyone, Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut is coming to PC on May 16! Today we’re giving you all the details on cross-play support in Legends mode and the inclusion of a new PlayStation overlay, with support for PlayStation Trophies and more.
With so many PS5 exclusives to choose from, it can be a little overwhelming to pick which one to play. This is especially true for a new PlayStation gamer who has yet to experience the wonder of PlayStation-exclusive storytelling. So, here's KnowTechie's take on the best PS5 exclusives in 2024 and beyond
PlayStation is killing it with the exclusives this year. Exclusive wise, what has xbox released this year?
They won't complain about Microsoft not releasing games here but put all their effort into saying that only first party counts. Games like Rebirth and Grandblue Relink don't count. Games published by Sony like Helldivers 2, Stellar Blade and Rise of the Ronin don't count because Sony don't own the studios.
It's some narrative building so for when Hellblade 2 come out they can say, seemingly without shame, that Microsoft is actually releasing first party games this year. And claim victory.🙃
Weird 1st party games didn't matter when Xbox had so little, but, now they're important again? Guess Ark 3, Stalker 2 don't count any more?
ARK 3 doesn't exist and it's just a timed exclusive. It's also a game that a majority of the ARK player base doesn't want as it's a massive deviation from what people like about the original game
Honestly to me it doesn’t matter what they say, they are just finally getting a chance to say all the things PS fan(boy)s were saying to them for the past few years. Let them get that, they deserve a “win” for a change.
The new narrative is that suddenly first party games matter again when awhile ago they didn’t, but that was because they were struggling with the same three games with the occasional fourth or fifth. That games should be everywhere on all platforms since that’s whats happening to theirs. The consoles don’t matter just the ability to play anywhere. Whatever Xbox is doing Sony will soon follow.
They’re not moving the goalpost anymore, but rather just moving the whole damn stadium.
Only a incel would care about who published what and who owns who.
If it’s not on the other consoles it’s an exclusive.
Killing what? Where are the 1st party games??
Stellar Blade and FF7 is what I’m seeing this year.. so shallow!!!!
Doesn't really matter as long as they're great games. Baffles me why people put an emphasis on 1st party. They're still games you can't play anywhere else this year

PS brand is my favorite because of their stellar first party software.. currently I see absolutely nothing to go crazy for..
Nonsense.
PS1 and PS2 was built on great third party exclusives like FF, MGS, GTA & Tekken.
Killing it my a$$! The 1st party is still MIA and no... Remakes and remasters don't count.
@Andy85 Don't forget the remakes for Demon's Souls and Shadow of the Colossus, two of the best PlayStation games around!
And beyond PlayStation, what about Resident Evil 2 and 4? RonnySins wins the award for dumbest opinion!
Of course I love the games I’ve played from PS but I don’t believe we need to limit it to ‘exclusive’ to acknowledge that Xbox will be releasing some good games this year also. In that same vein, I believe that Xbox diehards shouldn’t limit their acknowledgment of good PS games to 1st party. There are plenty of good games to go around for everybody.
This is a Playstation article about Playstation games and your comment is about Xbox. Can't you just celebrate what PS has without dragging this into console war BS?
I don’t think Microsoft is releasing games exclusively on Xbox anymore. They have some timed exclusives that release on Xbox first.
Returnal, Astro Bot, and Ratchet made having it since day one worth it.
GT7 free updates and Spiderman 2 and others at 60fps have made this last year more than okay.
But yeah, it’s been dry lately. BG3 and third party have made great filler, but we ready for that SOCOM or Killzone announcement and some more 1st party goodness. Crossing fingers for Ghost of Tsushima 2 announcement this summer.
Didn’t know Helldivers was exclusive! Wtf is going on at Xbox that they can’t get these games, series s strikes again.
Sony owns the Helldivers IP. The first was a PS3/Vita/PC game. It was never an Xbox game that they could ‘get’ a decade ago. I’m not sure what the upset is with Xbox here
Looks like they are on par with the previous gens. Solid games all around. Interestingly enough, we can't say they released a bad game yet this gen. Unlike the Quiet Man dustup.
Replies(2)I actually do not mind if Marathon releases on multiple platforms . I just wish that Marathon has a dedicated single player campaign.
The Ghost of Tsushima PC port exploded in popularity after the Steam reveal. The pre-orders made it become one of the most selling games.
one good thing about Sony releasing on pc late, in this case, (Ghost of Tsushima was released 2020)
Is 4 years have gone by and technology moved on, so now, almost any pc, will play it on high/ultra high settings.!!!
What do you mean? The same way R&C could only be played with PS5's "SUPER fast SSD then even PCs with a slow mechanical hard drive was able to play it. PCs will be OK. Smh
PCs with slow HDDs would stutter and freeze trying to catch up in heavy moments when rifts are used.
Regardless, your point is random and has nothing to do with the topic.
purple101's point is just that more users will be able to play the game at the best settings now versus if it came to PC in 2020 which is objectively true. You're being weird.
Also at the time when RC released it was only possible on ps5 at the time. Direct storage was not implemented onto pc at the time which is why it works now. Direct storage is the only reason why it works on pc with hdd
It was proven that a standard HD didn't do very well at all with r&c So your comment is mute bryan
"a slow mechanical hard drive".
What about all that PC is best place to play? All that talk about pc is better and playing on an HDD? People are lying to themselves if they say hdd and sdd are the same.
You mean play R&C at 720p 30fps and still have stuttering on mechanical HDDs... Fixed that for you.
Sony must of hurt your feelings. They said it couldn’t run on ps4.some pc have faster drives and ssc and m.2 drives. Where ps4 dose not
PS5 isn't really that high spec, any PC from the past 6 or so years (providing those older PCs used higher end hardware) should be able to play it easily in high/ultra high, the only extra thing people may have to pick is an SSD. You're overestimating the PS5 and underestimating PCs.
The original game came out almost 4 years ago, and the Directors Cut was released almost 3 years ago. Why do some PS fans hate that this is coming to PC?
In my opinion, this is a good way to build more of a fan base in preparation for the sequel.
Don’t know. Who says they hate it coming to pc, if you see where they are il go ask them why, no qualms
Try the Steam forums, half an hour after announcement, and it's a sh*t storm, I would not even bother going there right now.
@raW
The reason they hate it now is because when Microsoft put games on PC Sony fans would say "Xbox has no games. " But, I don't hear them saying that anymore especially when Sony doesn't have any 1st party games scheduled till next year.
For some reason they feel games are better if they are only on PlayStation and when it goes to PC they feel less special .
I could understand it more if it was released on PC the same day or even close to the original PS release date. You’d like to think that was the reason that you invested in buying PS, to play their ‘exclusive’ games. But I would think 3 or 4 years is long enough to make you feel ‘special’. It shouldn’t take away your love or enjoyment of the game because PC gamers will be able to enjoy it now.
I’m a big time ps5 person. It dose not bother me at all. I might get it for my pc that’s decked out with a 4080 and play it again . It gives others a chance to play on pc. It also gives Sony another revenue source . Then they can make mote games with a higher return on investment .
I'm being very honest. I have really not seen a single PS fan, at this point, upset that it's coming to PC. Doing this helps Sony fund their massive budget GOTY contender games that we ALL love.
I’m sure some of the 10 million purchasers of Ghost are not happy it’s going to PC. Some people are just like that. My question was just more wondering why that is. It’s not as if it takes away the fun that you had with the game. It just simply comes down to being petty I think.
No there aren't. Next to no one is arguing about it coming to PC. People are happy it's coming to PC. now if it was going to Xbox, then that'd be a different story I would think.
oh go steam forum or here, see the dislike people get when they ask the fanboys why they are upset that the game is coming to PC, a couple of months before ghost 2 gets announced for ps5 by sony ...
Probably talking about the only exclusives matter crowed. It's a fanboy arguement. When xbox started on pc the console war goal posts shifted and it was .... xbox has no exclusives because I can just skip xbox and get a pc. But now the same could be said for a Playstation. It's a stupid argument 🙄. Give the gamers options. Some people forgot they were the consumer and fed into the companies hands.
If a company is trying to push their consoles, then exclusive titles are a must. That’s why PS and Nintendo are killing it in their console sales. PS still has exclusives for a while before they are dev’d for PC, and that timeline is becoming shorter these days. I personally think that’s a winning formula for pushing both hardware and software, rather than releasing day one on PC. You’ll always have consumers who’ll want to play the game as soon as possible rather than wait for an arbitrary PC release date.
I don't think these companies will care too much longer about consoles. You're gonna be able to play psn and xbl on a TV.
The presentation is very decent in most areas on PlayStation, but god are some of the textures pretty bad. The mountain sides and rocky terrain stand out the most, but the foliage is some of the best I've ever seen, especially with the leaves blowing in the wind. The lighting was superb as well. Will love to see the Digital Foundry comparison when it's released.
The gap's diminishing for newer releases. Forbidden West PC coming 2 years after PS5 and TLOU 1 Remake: 6 months after. And PS live-services are coming day 1 to PC.
All the "PS will never do ____ " claims are being proven false gradually ... just because: business.
So not saying that it'll happen soon .... but one day, most PS releases will launch simultaneously on PC and PS5/6.
And if not day 1 ... then at most, only 6 months apart.
Sales and reviews couldn't disagree more. Definitely an opinion of the vocal minority.
I agree with all 3 on that picture. If you want to enjoy some gaming. They are worth it. I'm hyped for kena and death stranding directors cut too. Got my WD850 ready for them.
Dms dms dms
I tell ya returnal is my favourite PS5 game hands down, amazing from the audio to the addictive game play, I just can't stop playing it.
