19 unmissable PS5 games still releasing in 2026

19 unmissable PS5 games still releasing in 2026 https://ift.tt/aneNk09

The future is fantastically bright when it comes to forthcoming games hitting PlayStation 5, with the likes of Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis and Persona 4 Revival due for 2027. Too far out? Don’t worry, we’ve got the perfect tonic of 19 titles that are a bit closer to home, giving you plenty of excuses to get a PS5 now in readiness for the gaming experiences to come.

Halo: Campaign Evolved – July 28

There are a handful of sci-fi classics in gaming, and it’s hard to dispute Halo’s claim among them. Making its PlayStation debut with style, Halo: Campaign Evolved is the ideal introduction to iconic super soldier Master Chief. This Combat Evolved remake comes locked and loaded with upgraded presentation, extra and redesigned missions, and a flood of changes to bring in some of the series’ more popular elements, covering lore, movement, and additional weapons. Not to mention the four-player online co-op, two-player couch co-op, and more.

Beast of Reincarnation – August 4

Personally speaking, there aren’t enough games out there which blend traditional mythology with science fiction, so it’s refreshing to see Game Freak do exactly that with its impressive looking action RPG. Set in the plagued post-apocalyptic ruins of Japan during 4026, blighted outcast Emma and somewhat disturbing canine Koo are humanity’s remaining hope. Seeking out the source of the corruption – the titular Beast of Reincarnation – means exploring a world of mystery, and combining Emma and Koo’s abilities in an intriguing mixture of real time sword-wielding combat and turn-based style commands to unleash the beautiful but blighted pooch.

Big Walk – August 4

It shouldn’t be any surprise that the developer behind Untitled Goose Game has followed it up with a title as wonderfully weird looking as Big Walk. Challenging players to travel through an open world environment might sound a little odd, but when it requires co-op teamwork and communicating via singing, codes, and gesturing by using L2 and R2 to move the characters arms, the charm instantly becomes clear. Up to 12 players can take part in this rather unique puzzle driven, multiplayer only adventure. The game will also be available as part of the PlayStation Plus Monthly Games lineup at launch.

MARVEL Tokon: Fighting Souls – August 6

Flashy fast-paced fighting, iconic comic book characters, and a vibrant anime-inspired art style? As combos go, Arc System Works’ spectacular tag-based fighter already has the moves to satisfy both fans of the genre and Marvel buffs.

Each of the 20 playable base heroes and villains – ranging from Black Panther and Doctor Doom, to Spider-Man and Carnage – possess unique abilities that makes each of the 4v4 fights an impressive spectacle, for up to 64 players in its online lobby. And don’t worry if you’re new to this type of action, as MARVEL Tokon: Fighting Souls promises both an intuitive tutorial, a single-player mode that helps you learn more about the mechanics, and the option to make inputs and chain combos easier.

Metal Gear Solid: Collection Master Vol. 2 – August 27

Snake? You bet. Continuing its essential compilation of the legendary stealth series, Konami’s second package brings together Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, and Metal Gear: Ghost Babel. A fine assortment of slick Snake action, which sneakily packs in a selection of extras and bonuses, including a master book detailing the games’ story and characters, and the ability to receive in-game items if you have any save data stored from Metal Gear Solid: Collection Master Vol. 1.

Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy – August 27

A Plague Tale’s intense mixture of action adventure, stealth, and history takes a slightly different route in this third instalment, set 15 years before Requiem. This time developer Asobo Studio puts you in the hands of capable plunderer Sophia in a tale touching on the mythological, as she attempts to survive the deadly traps, puzzles and beasts of Minotaur Island, all while a brutal army gives chase.

Star Wars Zero Company – August 27

Bit Reactor and Respawn Entertainment flipped on the hyperdrive to bring us back to the Clone Wars era for this turn-based tactics title, which means you better get ready for more mercenaries, misfits, and astromechs. This gritty sci-fi strategy features an original tale where you can deploy a team selected from a variety of archetypes, including Jedi and blaster wielding scoundrels, and put them on the battlefield in the valiant mission to keep the galaxy safe. Your deployed troops can also form bonds which unlock devastating combat synergies that might be able to force any issue…

The Blood of Dawnwalker – September 3

Rebel Wolves’ dark fantasy action RPG has been turning heads since its unveiling. But even with the revelation of its expansive choice and consequence system, bloody swords and magic combat, and richly populated 14th-century kingdom of Vale Sangora, there’s still clearly more hiding within its shadowy corners. Vampires both literal and metaphorical bleed against this tale of morals and family, as you’ve given just 30 days to save the family of Coen, who is also dealing with a mysterious variant of the bloodsucking curse.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword – September 4

Capcom’s sword-swinging, soul-stealing, supernatural epic is back. Set in the early Edo period of Kyoto, as lone samurai Musashi you’re tasked with slicing through human enemies and the demonic Genma, using powerful sword stances and extraordinary abilities granted by the legendary Oni Gauntlet. A staggering variety of attacks, parries, and combos are a big feature, but the ability to use the environment during combat to fight dirty is a particularly fun addition.  

Marvel’s Wolverine – September 15

Insomniac Games knows how to make hard-hitting comic book action adventures, so it should be no surprise that one of the most anticipated titles of this year features everyone’s favourite razor-clawed Canadian. This all-new story has Wolverine slicing and dicing his way across the globe to help free his fellow mutants, teaming up with some familiar faces, including Jean Grey, Sabretooth, and Mystique. Brutal combat, unforgettable set pieces and a healing factor that just won’t quit? Sounds about right, bub.

Control Resonant – September 24

Stepping away from the third-person shooter genre of its forbearer, this follow up to Remedy’s popular sci-fi thriller takes its cues from action RPGs. Former Federal Bureau of Control captive Dylan Faden desperately needs to find his sister – and FBC Director – Jesse in order to truly find himself. Wielding his shapeshifting weapon, the Aberrant, to fashion everything from blades to a colossal hammer, Dylan’s quest to help save Manhattan from paranatural annihilation means unnerving enemies, physics defying exploration, and cosmic horror are all certainties.

Silent Hill: Townfall – September 24

Did someone say “unnerving enemies?” A return to Silent Hill is all that and more, as Simon Ordell’s 1996 trek through the Scottish island of St. Amelia throws you into an intimately first-person horror story of loss and consequences. Sure, you have a selection of melee weapons and firearms, but stealth, distractions, and puzzle solving are the only true ways to survive the psychological terrors that await.

Rayman Legends Retold – October 1

Reimagining the fan-favourite action platformer Rayman Legends is a big undertaking, but Ubisoft clearly relishes the challenge with its vibrant 3D visuals, fully voiced cinematics, gameplay tweaks, and additional levels. Fancy bouncing through the Glade of Dreams with up to three of your couch co-op friends? What about a few rounds of the revised football inspired and revamped mini-game Kung Foot?

Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve – October 2

Combat flight sims don’t come much more loaded than Bandai Namco’s long-running series. Deadly dogfights partner with first-person cinematic sequences to play out a story which can change based on your actions across the skies. The introduction of an online lobby also signals the largest multiplayer mode of the series to date, with co-op missions, cross-platform play, and up to eight players for competitive combat.

Star Wars: Galactic Racer – October 6

The Star Wars title that took everyone by surprise when it was first unveiled, Galactic Racer has since only gained even more momentum since. Although set in the post Return of the Jedi ‘New Republic’ era, the story driven racing game features characters and customizable vehicles spanning as far back as the prequels, set across planetary favourites such as Jakku and Tatooine. And you can also go for a star lit spin in an online multiplayer mode for up to 12 players, too.

Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse – October 15

When malevolent forces threaten eternal darkness, House Belmont answers with a wild whip of retribution. This collaboration between Evil Empire, Motion Twin, and Konami blends the smooth action of Dead Cells with the ever-expansive lore and style of Castlevania for a classic side-scrolling adventure full of traps, secrets, and monstrous foes. Set in a besieged medieval Paris and taking place two decades after the events of Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse and the recent animated series, expect plenty of crafty platforming, spectacular combat, and the constantly surprising level design we all love the series for. 

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 – October 23

The iconic shooter slides a new era into its crosshairs, with its campaign mode set across the Korean Peninsula in a war between North and South Korea. The story’s emotional firefight is flanked by an expansive multiplayer mode of 12 new 6v6 maps, both large and close-quarters – but the new Kill Block map is sure to get the blood pumping, with its constantly changing layouts. Let’s not forget DMZ, where up to 20 squads of up to three players get to duke it out in a living sandbox environment.

Phantom Blade Zero – October 29

Folk horror, fantasy, and wuxia combine for a flashy action RPG featuring fast-paced combat in a dark semi-open world. The fusion of machinery and martial arts inspired by the Golden Age of Hong Kong action films fashions what the developer calls Kungfupunk, as you take an assassin named Soul, who only has 66 days left to live, on a rampaging quest of revenge. Look for a dedicated State of Play coming later this summer. 

Grand Theft Auto VI – November 19

You might have heard of this one. Rockstar Games’ open-world juggernaut is nearly here. We can’t wait to see what awaits Jason and Lucia on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America when the biggest, most immersive evolution of the Grand Theft Auto series yet arrives on November 19.

You probably have even more games which are knocking on the door to be played on your PS5 in the coming months – why not tell us what you’re looking forward to enjoying later this year?

Coloratura: Designing a world where sound is the only guide

Coloratura: Designing a world where sound is the only guide https://ift.tt/gwIoUPO

The idea to create Coloratura was born from a revolutionary premise: creating a game that wasn’t just an audioguide but an experience you can play blindly, using spatial orientation and sensory perception as its main core. The project was born from Museful, a Game Jam prototype that served to confirm that tridimensional movement was possible without visual guiding.

The team took inspiration from several sources. They analyzed games designed to be played blindly like The Vale or A Blind Legend to understand what worked, and what kind of visual aids they wanted to avoid in order to maintain the purity of a true sightless experience. For the narrative and world building, they took great inspiration from titles such as Life is Strange, embracing a musical indie tone with slice of life themes and a big focus on the inner conflict of the main character.

Audio-focused gameplay design

Coloratura is a single-player narrative adventure where you play as Alex, a talented musician who has lost her sight due to an accident. Far from limiting movement, this game breaks the limits of traditional accessibility designs: the player has total freedom in a 3D environment without cardinal boundaries, being able to rotate the camera and freely explore the scene.

To ensure the player’s ability to navigate the levels intuitively and comfortably, the team designed some innovative audio mechanics:

• Radar and memory systems: Alex can concentrate to feel elements at different distances. The game uses a “memory” system to assign a positional sound to objects such as a table or a coffee machine once they are discovered. This allows the player to create a mind map of the space.
• The objective “button”: To avoid the player feeling lost, the team implemented a bell sound to indicate the direction they have to follow. This was an effort to translate the classic visual objective tracking from games to a guide that was purely based on sound.
• Musical puzzles: The goal is to locate sound sources that become puzzles. Once resolved, the player can build up melodies and form the final game soundtrack, mirroring Alex’s life stages.

Art direction and world building

In Coloratura the sound design is a main part of the visual design in a way. The world is built through a rich sound landscape that embraces the player and allows them to triangulate their position at any point. The musical identity, designed by José Ramón “Bibiki” García, is very well defined – acoustic guitar riffs are used to represent Alex’s personality and conscious state, while piano sounds evoque more introspective and dreamy moments.

The 3D environment was also created with a focus on fluidity. They eliminated strict collisions and designed scenes with broad walls to allow the player to move around without dealing with the frustration of getting stuck against an invisible object. On top of all that, there was a comprehensive dubbing work that included professional actors capable of transmitting deep emotions with almost an ASMR vibe. This allowed the voice acting to hit the right spot without feeling overwhelming.

Challenges during development

The main challenge the team faced was “unlearning” how to create video games. Traditional game design rules and processes, originally created for visual games, didn’t really work for Coloratura. On a technical level, the team faced challenges such as adjusting positional sound to clearly indicate when an object was at the player’s back. This prevented users from turning around and walking sideways (or, as the team says, walking like a crab) in fear of getting disoriented.

To overcome these challenges, the team relied on constant iteration and playtesting. They also worked closely with blind players throughout development, whose feedback was vital to the project. One of those collaborators was Sergio Vera, who is blind. Sergio not only helped validate and refine the game’s spatial movement, but also shared personal experiences that informed Coloratura’s story and helped make its portrayal of blindness feel authentic. The goal wasn’t to create a game solely for blind players, but an accessible experience that people both with and without visual impairments could enjoy on equal terms.

The experience on PlayStation

Nowadays the industry and platforms like PlayStation are making a strong bet in inclusion and accessibility, with initiatives like the Access controller. Coloratura arrives in this context with a pioneering project, showcasing the full potential of PlayStation 5’s sophisticated 3D audio and providing the players with a level of technical immersion that few narrative games achieve.

The game includes a mode with a supporting interface made of sketched illustrations and text for people with dyslexia or other needs, but the true magic is in its inclusive gameplay. Coloratura invites PlayStation players to put on their headphones, blindfold themselves or play in total darkness, and lose themselves in the experience. As the team at Nakama Studios points out, there are no graphics more powerful than those drawn by our own imagination when the outside world fades away and only sound remains.

Enjoy Coloratura when it launches on PS5 later this year.

The Blood of Dawnwalker: unique time-driven quest system and player choice detailed

The Blood of Dawnwalker: unique time-driven quest system and player choice detailed https://ift.tt/kgjn4dS

The world has gotten very small for you and your family, Coen. It was never a grand world to begin with, tied as you all were to your farm in the tiny village of Laslea, but with the arrival of the plague, your sister’s illness, and then the vampires, it has shrunk even further.

When you wake up, it’s the day of the Blood Mass for Laslea. Tonight, the vampires, the vrakhiri, will arrive to collect the oblation of their livestock. Every adult in the village must attend and give of their blood to sustain their rulers, Brencis and his clique. It is known. It is normal. Shockingly, it’s becoming more normal every day as the hope of change or salvation withers among the people of Vale Sangora.

Not everyone is cut out for this new normal. Your mother is barely able to hold herself upright under the weight of her fear. Your father, pulled in two directions by his family and his past, has become grim and hard. Your siblings are struggling to understand everything happening around them. And you, Coen, a young man in your prime, are stuck staring down a long future of being bled every fortnight, little hope for anything other than the life of cattle.

Is it any wonder some say it’s the end of the world?

And yet, the daily concerns of life must go on. Your mother is in no condition to attend the Blood Mass tonight and if she is not present, your family and maybe the entire village will suffer. The gates are guarded by Knyaz Brencis’s men – no one will be permitted to leave until the offering is extracted. Between dawn and sunset, the day is divided into 8 parts. You must use that time to find a solution.

So, you wander the sunny dirt paths of Laslea. Somehow, in spite of the clamp of the vrakhiri around your neck, even in this tiny village, the possibilities are endless. You could decide to go directly to Anca, the local herbalist, and ask for medicine for your mother and wind up spending most of the day reading Latin, soaking up every moment you can in her presence.

You could punch one of the Uriash, gigantic ram-like warriors occupying the village at Brencis’ command in an attempt to burst the boils of rage festering in your heart. You could go looking for an escaped pig or a lost neighbor, you could save the weaver by searching for a stolen tapestry commissioned by the vrakhiri, you could beat an upstart boy for insulting you, you could even uncover the start of a revolution against the vampires… but you may not be able to do it all.

You see, as long as you are wandering, watching, listening, never intervening, the sun will stay high in the sky. The Blood Mass will not arrive. The day will never turn to night.

To move time forward, you will have to choose. So you wander. You speak to an old woman weeping by an unearthed grave. You confront the man who lurks by the river. You ask your sister about the dark dreams that jolt you awake at night. You practice your sword skills on the animals in the woods. And, in your own time, you choose how your day unfolds.

Yet it is quickly made clear to you that some choices are out of your hands. There is no combination of actions and words at Coen’s disposal that can stop the Blood Mass once the sun sets. Some events have their own tides that cannot be resisted. Everyone has their own free will and no matter how earnestly you try, you can’t control the power of grief, of fear, of revenge.

The Blood Mass goes poorly. Decisions are made by you and your family that cannot be taken back, and deep in the night, you wake up in the bowels of Laslea’s silver mine with a strange new hunger. You are no longer fully human.

The wrath of the vrakhiri at the defiance of Laslea has chosen you as its scion.

Brencis picked you to turn into one of his own, a familiar face to destroy your friends and neighbors as one more twist of the knife. The surviving villagers, including your father, mother, and siblings, will be made a sacrifice to his coronation in 30 days. Your family has been crammed into the darkness of a cell, your existence squeezed down into the palm of Brencis’ hand.

And yet. As the village burns, as the sun rises, you are given a new choice. All is not lost. The light of the sun does not burn you, sear your flesh. Not even the vrakhiri could control this. In that moment, the world opens up, the shackles fall away. For you now have all the power and ferocity of a vampire, but all the feelings and connections of a human. You have something denied to you for so long: the ability to choose.

As you step out of the remains of your home, your village, the whole of Vale Sangora lays before you. There is a sword at your side. Your arm still aches from the magic runes Anca carved into your skin. The taste of copper lingers in the back of your throat.

You realize that, with enough blood and rage, you could rip this valley from the vrakhiri’s claws and feast upon its riches yourself. You could join the revolution, save your family and dispose of the vrakhiri. You could wash your hands of the entire affair and pursue whatever pleasures the next moment offers you.

You are a unique thing, Dawnwalker, and no one will ever write a future quite like yours. A new day is beginning; how will you spend it?

The Blood of Dawnwalker rises on PlayStation 5 this September 3, 2026.
