Current PS5 exclusives

Below is a list of some of the more recent PS5 console exclusives and some information on each one in case you haven’t gotten around to playing them.

Days Gone Remastered

Bend Studio

• April 25, 2025

Days Gone is a bit of a cult classic at this point, a game that had very mixed reception upon release and became more and more loved as the years went on. Days Gone Remastered irons out most of the technical issues that plagued the original release and brings it into the modern era.

And, while there is a PC version, you’re best off playing this on the PS5 unless you have an incredibly beefy PC. Hordes run perfectly fine on PS5, but lower end PCs really struggle with the sheer amount of zombies Days Gone throws at you.

Silent Hill 2 Remake

Konami

The remake of Silent Hill 2, the horror phenomenon that took the world by storm on PlayStation 2 was released in October 2024. Developed by Bloober Team the remake brings the beloved horror title up to date and introduces it to a whole new audience.
