The gameplay of the new releases has become more and more intriguing, such that many are deciding they must own a PS5! We are expecting some familiar and famous titles to be launched on PS5 including Call of Duty Vanguard (released in September 2021) and Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy [due for release November 2021).
The Playstation Showcase that was published on the 9th of September, 2021 gave gamers an exciting insight as to what they can look forward to with regards to the PS5 exclusive games that are set to release soon. The Showcase was a short one, but in that small period of time, gamers were extremely hyped to hear that some fresh new titles will be joining Sony. Some of the games will also include major updates which are pretty interesting.
Although, with the number of new games being released, it can be hard to know which ones to follow up on. Below we have listed a few favorites that you might want to keep an eye on.
Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy
Developer: Eidos Montreal
Publisher: Square Enix
Date of Release: October 26, 2021
Eidos Montreal decided to do his own take on the great Guardians of the Galaxy, where he sends you on an invigorating quest as Star-Lord. The game is said to have a single beginning and end, but the actual gamely depends on the decisions you make as the heroic Star-Lord, which will test your abilities to lead your own team of misfits. Even though the game is about brain strategy, it has it’s fair amount of action involved too. It’s a twist on the fan favorite, but it still retains some of the wit and humor which is part of the comics.
Solar Ash
Developer: Heart Machine
Publisher: Annapurna Interactive
Date of Release: October 26, 2021
This vibrant new game comes from the imagination of the developer behind Hyper Light Drifter. Solar Ash is Heart Machine’s most recent forthcoming game which will be announced within the framework of the new PS5 lineup. With its diverse colorful art style, gamers will travel through a break in space called the Ultravoid which is eating up entire planets. In this perilous setting with its strange and open environment, the characters “must find solace in each other to make it through the spiral of despair they find themselves trapped in.” Head of Heart Machine’s Ash Preston depicted Solar Ash’s story like a personal experience which progresses into something “beyond just the weight of the struggle into something more hopeful.”

Call of Duty: Vanguard will be taking us back into the historic World War 2 for its newest entry, setting out to explore the different stories of four soldiers, based upon real-life individuals and their experiences. Visually it appears to be one of the most remarkable games yet with regards to its story, and there’s no doubt that will make experiencing the terrors of war even more vivid.
Little Devil Inside
Developer: Neostream Interactive
Date of Released: TBC 2021
Little Devil Inside first started its journey on Kickstarter as early as in 2015. Fast-forward five years on and we see their debut trailer during a PS5 reveal stream with the latest news that it’s going to be a scheduled exclusive. As an RPG with survival elements, Little Devil Inside is set in the “Victorian-like” era in a partly-open world. The trailer was showing off a whole range of monsters and also provided us with short glances of some of the fighting elements and features. It was definitely one of the greatest surprises of the latest showcase.
Horizon Forbidden West
Developer: Guerrilla Games
Publisher: Sony Interactive Entertainment
Date of Release: February 18, 2022
Aloy is indeed alive and well and she is back for an even better adventure. It’s true, a Horizon Zero Dawn sequel was officially unveiled, and it is going to see Aloy head down to post-apocalyptic San Francisco. The trailer was absolutely stunning and packed with vivid colors, strange machines, and new surroundings to explore. We can even see Aloy swimming underwater wearing what seems to be some sort of breathing mask, which might mean we can count on some underwater scenes happening as well. It’s wonderful to see that we can return to the beautiful world that is created by Guerrilla Games and experience the new journey on the PS5
