Every upcoming new game release for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4.

The gaming industry never sleeps. Each month of every year contains at least a handful of noteworthy games from major studios, along with a slew of indie projects that aim to satisfy a niche audience. Naturally, that extends to Sony's consoles, particularly right now as the libraries for both the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 expand simultaneously.

So far, 2021 has seen the release of Hitman 3, Returnal, and Resident Evil Village, just to name a few titles, and the year is far from over. Regardless of whether someone's preferred system is a PS4 and PS5, their future is packed with exciting games.

What PlayStation games are set to drop in 2021 and beyond?

Disclaimer: Please note that the release dates are for North America.

Updated June 11th, 2021: Following the IGN Expo and Tribeca Games Spotlight, as well as the Koch Primetime Livestream, the following games were added to this list: Signalis, Norco, Harold Halibut, Lost In Random, Disciples Liberation, Blacktail, Steelrising, Black Skylands, Big Rumble Boxing: Creed Champions, Skatebird, Broken Pieces, Crossfire: Legion, Painkiller, Scars Above, Codename: Final Form, Dolmen, Encased.

June 2021 looks primed to be one of the most diverse months of the current year's gaming calendar. Highly anticipated titles such as Sniper Ghost Warrior: Contracts 2 and Scarlet Nexus are destined to dominate the discourse, while MMO fans can look forward to a new The Elder Scrolls Online expansion. Insomniac Games' Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is Sony's big exclusive for the month, a game that should serve as a great incentive to pick up a PS5.

Although more titles could still be confirmed for July 2021, the present line-up is already shaping up to be something special. This is a month defined by niche releases. If it proves to be even half as good as its predecessor, Neo: The World Ends with You will be a must-buy for JRPG fans. F1 2021 has the racing sim market covered, while In Nightmare should satisfy horror lovers. Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights, Cris Tales, and The Silver Case 2425 are just a few other games that are worth keeping an eye on.

The summer months are only starting to take shape, so the release schedule will most likely evolve over the coming weeks. A PlayStation console exclusive with beautiful visuals and a sense of adventure, Kena: Bridge of Spirits will be launching for both the PS4 and PS5. After a long wait and a few delays, the sequel to 1990's King's Bounty should also become a reality this August.

While not much has been confirmed for September, the few scheduled games more than make up for it. Life Is Strange: True Colors will build upon the emotional storytelling of its predecessors, both of which will be included in the new game's Ultimate Edition bundle. Yakuza's Lost Judgment continues Takayuki Yagami's story, while Tales of Arise has been a long time coming. Arkane Studios' Deathloop will be a PS5 console exclusive.

A throwback to classic shooters, zombies, and Peppa Pig, October is beginning to take shape. Far Cry 6 and Battlefield 2042 should keep first-person shooter fans busy for well beyond 2021. A lot can change over the course of four months; if nothing else, Tango Gameworks' Ghostwire: Tokyo will hopefully receive a specific release date.

Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto 5 and Online will officially join the ninth console generation. Despite GTA 5 and Online debuting in 2013, the games remain inescapable, particularly the multiplayer version. In November, Final Fantasy 14 will release its fourth expansion, Endwalker. The MMO's last expansion, Shadowbringers, came out on July 2, 2019.

Fans of parkour and zombies can finally rest easy as Techland's sequel to Dying Light has a fixed release date. Taking place 15 years following the events of the first game, Dying Light 2: Stay Human is set in "The City," an open-world map containing dangers around every corner. Dying Light 2 looks set to beat Dead Island 2 to the finishing line.

  • December 7: Dying Light 2: Stay Human (PS5, PS4)
  • December 15: Aeterna Noctis (PS5, PS4)

Plenty of PS4 and PS5 games have been announced for 2021 that have yet to receive a release date. From massive PlayStation exclusives like Horizon Forbidden West to third-party juggernauts such as Diable 2: Resurrected, and Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Extraction, the 2021 gaming calendar could change at a moment's notice.

With so many projects still to come in 2021, it can be difficult to look beyond the end of the year. However, 2022 will be huge for the PS5 since, by that point, the PS4's release schedule should slow down considerably. Hogwarts Legacy and The Lord of the Rings: Gollum both have the potential to be among the best titles of their respective licenses, while DC fans have Rocksteady's Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and WB Games Montréal's Gotham Knights to look forward to. Gran Turismo 7 also needs to exist. Santa Monica's next God of War game has also been delayed until 2022.

Some of the biggest games currently in development have yet to give any inkling about when a release can be expected. Final Fantasy 16 and Diablo 4 will hit the market in due time, but the futures of games like Dead Island 2, Deep Down, and Wild are more uncertain. Projects such as the new BioShock and TimeSplitters are presumably still multiple years away from a release.

Rumors should always be taken with a grain of salt; that said, speculating about what unrevealed titles are secretly in development can be a lot of fun. While nothing has been confirmed, Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 2, Grand Theft Auto 6, and Marvel Spider-Man 2 are fairly safe bets. There is also a decent chance that a new Call of Duty will one day be released.
