1. Saros (Housemarque’s Follow-Up to Returnal)
Let’s start with the one that made me sit up in my chair: Saros (formerly teased as SOS). From the creators of Returnal - one of my favorite PS5 games ever - comes a new roguelike third-person shooter set on the alien planet Carcosa. There’s dashing, gunplay, an absorb-and-counter shield mechanic, and even a second-chance revival system. It looks slick, brutal, and deeply addictive. Saros drops March 20, 2026.
2. Zero Parades for Dead Spies
From the team behind Disco Elysium, this narrative RPG dives into espionage and mind-erasing tech. Expect surreal conversations with fragments of your own psyche and a heavy dose of political intrigue. If it’s half as sharp as Disco, we’re in for something special.
3. Nioh 3
Samurai action fans rejoice: Nioh 3 is coming February 6, 2026. New open-field levels, yokai battles, and seamless melee/ninjutsu combat make it the biggest leap in the series yet.
4. Deus Ex Remastered
JC Denton is back. Deus Ex Remastered arrives February 5, 2026, with new lighting, shadows, particle effects, and controller-friendly UI. Not a full remake, but a welcome upgrade for one of the most important RPG-shooters ever made.
5. Dynasty Warriors 3 Complete Edition Remastered
Unleash a thousand combos again - but prettier this time. Built in Unreal Engine 5, this remaster (which is more of a remake) includes all base content and Extreme Legends. Coming March 2026.
6. Crimson Desert
New trailer, new threats, dragon dogfights, and even a steampunk mech suit. After a delay, Crimson Desert now launches March 19, 2026.
7. Gran Turismo 7 Spec 3 Update
Racers get two new tracks, eight cars, and a fancy data logger in December’s free Spec 3 update. GT diehards will eat this up.
8. Code Vein 2
Bandai Namco’s anime Souls-like is back on January 30, 2026. Expect new partners, elaborate bosses, and flashy weapons - including floating blade attacks and lances.
9. Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Comes to PS5
The irony is delicious: Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 lands on PS5 December 8, with VR support, DualSense haptics, gyro controls, and more than 125 detailed aircraft. You can finally play one of Xbox’s crown jewels without leaving PlayStation.
10. Marvel’s Wolverine
Finally. After years of teases and leaks, we got a real look at Marvel’s Wolverine. Brutal claw combat, blood and gore, Sentinels, Mystique, Omega Red, and Logan in the yellow suit. Locations range from Japan to Madripoor to the Canadian wilderness. It looks darker, grittier, and more feral than Insomniac’s Spider-Man. Fall 2026 can’t come soon enough.
