Upcoming PS5 exclusives

What's the next big PS5 exclusive set to come out?

The next major PS5 exclusive set to come out is Rise of the Ronin. It's being worked on by Team Ninja, which put out the Nioh and Ninja Gaiden games.

Upcoming PS5 exclusives include AAA first-party games, as well as Sony's future slate of multiplayer titles, something slightly newer that the publisher seems to be pushing quite hard. Regardless of what kind of games you like to play, there are plenty of exclusives coming to PS5, many of which already have release dates or broad release windows.

In terms of upcoming games, the next year or so of PS5 exclusives look set to be an extremely strong lineup. That's before you consider the multiplayer offering, with games like Marathon set to continue Bungie's success in the FPS game genre.

We'll only be covering games that have been officially confirmed for release, many of which already have solid release dates locked in.

Upcoming PS5 exclusives: Rise of the Ronin

In Rise of the Ronin, players will embody a Ronin during the closing days of the Tokugawa Shogunate, a period of oppression and stagnation.

You will explore the vast world of late-Edo period Japan by horse and glider, while battling foes using a wide range of weapons and equipment – melee weapons like swords and spears, as well as ranged weapons like firearms and thrown weapons. You'll also have access to a grappling rope.

Rise of the Ronin is currently only planned for PS5.

Upcoming PS5 exclusives: Silent Hill 2 remake

The Silent Hill 2 remake is being handled by Bloober Team, the studio behind the Layers of Fear series. We've only seen a couple of trailers so far, but things certainly look promising. With the original being such a well-regarded classic, the new term certainly has a lofty task ahead of it. Hopefully, we'll see some gameplay sooner rather than later.

Silent Hill 2 will launch on PS5 and PC so is a PS5 console exclusive at some point in 2024.

Marvel's Wolverine

Marvel's Wolverine is coming from the folks over at Insomniac, the team responsible for the Spider-Man PS4 and PS5 games. As such, expectations are very high indeed, and because we've not seen much on it so far, things are still very much up in the air. Only a brief cinematic trailer has been revealed so far, showing Logan sitting at a bar after what looks to have been a very bloody brawl.

At present, Wolverine is only slated for a PS5 release.

Upcoming PS5 exclusives: Death Stranding 2

Death Stranding 2 was something of a surprise when it was announced, given that many hadn't expected 2019's Death Stranding to get a sequel. What we've seen so far amounts to some classic Kojima cinematics, with Sam Porter Bridges now sporting grey hair. It looks as though Fragile will also return. Not much is known beyond that.

When it does eventually arrive in 2025, Death Stranding 2 will only be available for PS5.

Upcoming PS5 exclusives: Stellar Blade

In Stellar Blade, you'll engage in blisteringly fast combat as you slash a path through the remnants of Earth, facing epic boss encounters that will challenge both brain and brawn in equal measure. The trailer that was shown off alongside the game's reveal is eye-poppingly beautiful, so we're expecting big things from it when it does eventually launch.

Given that Stellar Blade is being published by Sony, it's no surprise that it will only launch on PS5 on April 26, 2024

Upcoming PS5 exclusives: Marathon

Marathon comes from Bungie, the creators of Destiny and Halo. It'll be a sci-fi extraction shooter, and what we've seen so far looks absolutely incredible in terms of its visual style. Marathon will have players engaging one another as cybernetic mercenaries known as Runners, exploring a lost colony on the planet of Tau Ceti IV in search of riches, fame, and infamy.

It'll launch on PS5 and PC, with full cross-play and cross-save.

Upcoming PS5 exclusives: Fairgame$

Fairgame$ is a competitive heist game where you join an underground movement to rob the ultra-rich and rebalance the scales. We've not seen any gameplay yet, nor do we have a release window or release date.

What we do know is that it'll launch on PS5 and PC.

Upcoming PS5 exclusives: Phantom Blade Zero

Phantom Blade Zero was revealed during a PlayStation Showcase event earlier this year. It looks set to blend fast-paced action with cinematic quick-time gameplay. There are epic boss battles, and plenty of parrying as you make your way across a fractured land, looking to seek revenge on those that have mortally wounded you.

Phantom Blade Zero has been confirmed to be in development for PS5 and PC, though no further details have been given on when it'll be coming out (or if that number of platforms will grow).

Upcoming PS5 exclusives: Concord

Concord was revealed last year, with a trailer that didn't exactly reveal much. Apparently, it's a first-person PvP multiplayer shooter, and it'll launch on PC and PS5 sometime in 2024. It's said to have a "unique universe of vibrant worlds and its rich cast of colorful characters". You can read more on the PlayStation Blog.

Upcoming PS5 exclusives: Sword of the Sea

Sword of the Sea takes place in an abandoned realm where the terrain flows in waves. You'll make use of a traversal vehicle called the Hoversword. The Hoversword controls like a snowboard, skateboard, and hoverboard all in one. Build momentum to achieve great speeds and catch big air as you explore skatepark-like ruins, uncovering an ancient mystery as you go.

At present, Sword of the Sea is announced for PS5 and PC.
