Big Walk — August 4
Big Walk is a multiplayer-only adventure from the developer of Untitled Goose Game. Up to 12 players explore and solve communication-driven challenges using gestures, codes, singing, and deliberately awkward arm controls.
MARVEL Tokon: Fighting Souls — August 6
MARVEL Tokon: Fighting Souls is Arc System Works' vibrant 4v4 tag fighter. Its simplified input options and tutorial aim to make the spectacle approachable without removing the depth fighting-game players expect.
Metal Gear Solid: Collection Master Vol. 2 — August 27
Metal Gear Solid: Collection Master Vol. 2 brings Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, and Metal Gear: Ghost Babel into one package, alongside reference material and additional bonuses.
Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy — August 27
Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy follows Sophia 15 years before A Plague Tale: Requiem. The series' stealth, historical setting, puzzles, and pursuit sequences move to Minotaur Island for a new standalone story.
Star Wars Zero Company — August 27
Star Wars Zero Company is a turn-based tactics game set during the Clone Wars. Players assemble a squad of specialists, build relationships between them, and use the resulting combat synergies on the battlefield.
August 27 is the first major collision point in the remaining PS5 calendar. Stealth fans, narrative-adventure players, and strategy fans all receive a substantial release on the same day.
September 2026 PS5 games
The Blood of Dawnwalker — September 3
The Blood of Dawnwalker is a dark fantasy action RPG from Rebel Wolves. Its premise gives Coen 30 in-game days to save his family, while the choice-and-consequence structure lets players decide how to spend that limited time.
Onimusha: Way of the Sword — September 4
Onimusha: Way of the Sword revives Capcom's supernatural samurai series in early Edo-period Kyoto. Sword stances, parries, environmental attacks, and the Oni Gauntlet shape its close-range combat.
Marvel's Wolverine — September 15
Marvel's Wolverine is Insomniac Games' new superhero action adventure. Its story follows Logan across multiple locations and includes Jean Grey, Sabretooth, and Mystique, with combat designed around Wolverine's claws and healing factor.
Control Resonant — September 24
Control Resonant shifts Remedy's paranormal series toward action-RPG combat. Dylan Faden uses the shape-changing Aberrant while searching for Jesse and confronting another reality-bending threat in Manhattan.
Silent Hill: Townfall — September 24
Silent Hill: Townfall is a first-person psychological horror story set on the fictional Scottish island of St. Amelia. Combat exists, but stealth, distractions, exploration, and puzzle solving appear central to survival.
September 24 creates another difficult choice: Control Resonant offers aggressive paranormal action, while Silent Hill: Townfall leans into vulnerability and psychological horror.
October 2026 PS5 games
Rayman Legends Retold — October 1
Rayman Legends Retold reimagines the platformer with 3D visuals, voiced cinematics, gameplay changes, extra levels, and four-player couch co-op. The revised Kung Foot mode also returns for local competition.
Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve — October 2

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 — October 23
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 starts a new campaign conflict on the Korean Peninsula. Its launch package includes multiplayer, 12 new 6v6 maps, and a DMZ mode built around 20 squads of up to three players.
Phantom Blade Zero — October 29
Phantom Blade Zero blends wuxia action, machinery, folk horror, and a dark semi-open world. Its fast combat and Hong Kong action-film influence make it one of the most visually distinctive PS5 releases still scheduled for 2026.
November 2026 PS5 games
Grand Theft Auto VI — November 19
Grand Theft Auto VI brings Rockstar's open-world series to Leonida with protagonists Jason and Lucia. It is currently the final dated game in this PlayStation-backed list and easily the year's largest commercial release.
What about December 2026 PS5 releases?
The PlayStation schedule used for this update does not include a major dated December game. That does not mean December will remain empty. Smaller releases, ports, delayed games, and late announcements can still fill the month. This page will need another date check after the next State of Play or major publisher showcase.
Which upcoming PS5 games look most important?
Marvel's Wolverine and Grand Theft Auto VI are the clearest blockbuster releases. Phantom Blade Zero and Onimusha: Way of the Sword stand out for action players, while Silent Hill: Townfall is the major horror pick. Strategy fans should watch Star Wars Zero Company, and players looking for local multiplayer have Rayman Legends Retold and Halo's couch co-op.
The best choice depends on genre rather than hype. A release calendar is most useful when it helps players avoid buying several long games at once, especially around August 27, September 24, and the crowded October schedule.
