2024 could be the year that the PlayStation 5 continues its winning trend, and the first few months of the year will see the release of some of the most intriguing games for the platform.
The PlayStation 5 catalogue is expected to continue to expand with each passing year, and the year 2024 should not be an exception to this pattern. Despite the fact that quite a few of the games that are now being announced for the platform, particularly exclusives, do not yet have release dates that have been established, there is still a substantial selection of titles that are scheduled to be released in the next year. Exciting PlayStation 5 titles for 2024 include a wide range of genres, including open-world action extravaganzas, unique role-playing game experiences, and a lot of ground in between.
The PlayStation 5 had a successful year in 2023, particularly when it came to sequels or new entries in series that have been going on for a long time. Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and Final Fantasy 16 were two significant exclusives for the platform, both launching to critical acclaim. Although PC fans got to take the first pass at Baldur’s Gate 3, it landed on the PS5 some months before it found its way to the Xbox Series X/S. Games like Resident Evil 4, Street Fighter 6, and Alan Wake 2 weren’t platform exclusives, but they nevertheless contributed to build out a roster that kept the calendar filled throughout the year.
- Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth – February 29
The exploits of Cloud Strife and friends swept the globe by storm in 1997, and Final Fantasy 7 Remake showed that the story is just as intriguing today, even when seen through a different lens. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is riding off all the buzz that Remake got and generated alike, putting it up to be the next smash hit in the famous RPG brand. With at least a three-month window of PlayStation exclusivity, it’s hard for any game to surpass the anticipation for this PS5 title in 2024.
2. Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth – January 26
The Yakuza/Like A Dragon series has an excellent reputation for delivering exciting and unique experiences, and Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth doesn’t look like it will be an exception. The franchise always accessorizes interesting main stories with an extraordinary variety of side content, and this entry truly outdoes itself with an Animal Crossing-style affair included as one of many Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth mini-games. It’s set to be the longest game in the series, so this could provide PS5 entertainment for a big chunk of 2024.
3. Tekken 8 – January 26
2023 was a big year for fighting games, with new entries in both the Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat series that met with more positive receptions than their immediate predecessors. Tekken 8 could continue that streak, with a whopping 32 characters and a promised focus on aggressive gameplay. It also seems like it could bring the Mishima saga to a conclusion with a bang, and the events of the story seem like they’ll be climactic regardless.
