This morning Sony not only gave us our first look at the PS5 console, but they also debut trailers and gameplay from major first-party studios and third-parties.
Here’s everything that was announced during the show.
GTA V
GTA V is coming to PS5 in the second half of 2021 and it ”will feature a range of technical improvements, visual upgrades and performance enhancements to take full advantage of the console’s powerful new hardware.” PS5 owners will also be able to grab GTA Online on PS5 for free for the first three months of the game’s launch.

A single-player or co-op platforming adventure. One for all ages.
DESTRUCTION ALLSTARS
It’s Destruction Derby but in the future.
KENA: BRIDGE OF SPIRITS
Beautiful looking third-person adventure/puzzler that looks to pull at the heart and #cutie strings.
GOODBYE VOLCANO HIGH
Talking about pulling heart-strings, this one looks to a game to do just that – in 2021.
ODDWORLD: SOULSTORM
Abe’s adventures continue and it looks more action-packed than before.

It’s a PS5 console exclusive now – here’s gameplay for the “spooooky” game that was announced at Bethesda’s last E3 appearance. The game is coming in 2021.
JETT: THE FAR SHORE
From Superbrothers, it looks interesting and an adventure into the unknown. But unknown is also what we really have at the moment.
GODFALL
Dubstep trailer for a dubstep game. Holiday season game.
SOLAR ASH
The follow up to Hyperlight Drifter with a similar feel that’s coming in 2021.
HITMAN III
The conclusion to the ‘World of Assassination’ trilogy from developer IO. This is coming to PS4/PS5 in January of 2021.
ASTRO’S PLAYROOM
Something for all PS5 owners to check out when they boot up their console.
LITTLE DEVIL INSIDE
Great humour in this trailer. I think you’re hunter-gathering things for your master?
NBA2K21
It’s NBA2K and it’s coming later this year.
BUGSNAX
Hillarious trailer. Awesome song. Watched it more than once. Can’t wait to play Bugsnax this holiday season.

Long rumoured, now confirmed. Bluepoint Games has been working on a remake of the original ‘soulsborne.’
DEATH LOOP
Another console exclusive to PS5 from Bethesda. with Arkane’s next game that is all about dying over and over again.
RESIDENT EVIL VII.I.LLAGE (RESIDENT EVIL VIII: VILLAGE)
The leaks were all true, the next Resident Evil game is indeed set in a village and continues the story and characters from the previous game. The village won’t make its way to your lounge until 2021. Don’t forget we already had a RE game this year.
PRAGMATA
It’s coming in 2022. This was like a Kojima trailer, but it’s from Capcom.
HORIZON: FORBIDDEN WEST
Looking more beautiful than ever the sequel to Horizon: Zero Dawn didn’t get a release date just yet, but we can still hope we’re playing this stunner at launch.
PS5 BOX
It’s dual-tone just like the controller and there are indeed two skews. One has a disc drive, one does not. Sony also revealed a handful of accessories:
-
HD Camera – featuring dual 1080p lenses for gamers to broadcast themselves along with their epic gameplay moments;
-
Media Remote – a remote control with built-in microphone to navigate movies and streaming services with ease; and
-
DualSense™ Charging Station – for convenient charging of two DualSense™ Wireless Controllers.
We still have no price and no solid release date, however.
