We finally got the price for the PS5 alongside the reveal of some massive games and follow up trailers on PS5 exclusive we already knew about. The PS5 Showcase was pretty massive.
Here’s everything that was announced or show off during the PS5 Showcase.
Final Fantasy XVI
The Final Fantasy franchise is returning to its roots with a fantasy theme with crystals, magic, European kingdoms inspiration and, of course, Chocobos.
With the tagline “the legacy of the crystal has shaped out history for long,” there are many questions still to be answered.
The game is a console exclusive for PS5 and will also come to PC.

Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales
We got a fresh look at Miles’ special abilities and what makes him unique as a Spider-Man.
The trailer introduced The Tinkerer and their forces who are after some powerful crystal or something. Either way, it’s a very pretty display of colours and smooth Spider-Man gameplay.
Holiday 2020 release date. Maybe they’re still not sure if they can hit launch at Insomniac.

Hogwarts: Legacy
After gameplay leaks and plenty of rumours, Avalanche and Portkey Games Hogwarts RPG has finally been revealed.
The game is set during the later 1800s and the trailer features wizards, trolls and Death Eaters?
It’s coming in 2021 and hopefully, J.K Rowling has sold her rights to the franchise to someone who doesn’t suck by then.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War
A fresh look at the next Call of Duty with single-player gameplay featuring a plane chase sequence that could have been out of a Fast & Furious film.
A multiplayer alpha is also arriving on PS4 exclusively this Friday.
The game is coming this Holiday season.

Resident Evil: Village
Oh boy, does the next Residen Evil just look creepy a-f or what?
You get Chris Redfield at the start again but then it turns to animation that I saw someone on Twitter (sorry, forgot who) say it reminded them of Coraline. And it appeared like the creepy “Whaddaya wanna buy?” guy is at the end from Resident Evil 4.
The game is coming in 2021.

Deathloop
Another very stylish trailer for Deathloop that focused on two of the eight villains Colt must takedown in the game. Each appears to have their own special abilities, weaknesses and a private army.
The game may have been delayed into Q2 2021, but it’s still a fine look console exclusive for the PlayStation 5.

Devil May Cry 5: Special Edition
I didn’t play DMC 5 when it released but boy does this trailer make me wanna jump in. Especially since it appears the special edition features the much-loved original Dante that as missing from the original release of the game.
This will be available at launch for PS5.

Oddworld: Soulstorm
A very Oddworld trailer for the next entry in the longrunning franchise.
The game is a console exclusive for a limited time, also available on PS4 and will be available on PC.
Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach
This was a very creepy trailer but it doesn’t reveal too much about the next game in the long-running and very popular horror franchise.
It’ll be available exclusively on PS4/PS5 consoles for 3 months and also PC.
Demon’s Souls
The remake of Demon’s Souls looks very good. This is a stunning rebirth of a much-loved game and one of the best looks at the capabilities of next-gen during this showcase.
The trailer says it’s not available on other consoles for a limited time but it’s also available on PC.
Fortnite
It’s on PS5. Probably with ray-tracing like the PC version is receiving this week.
Available at launch. Free. All progress you have transferres over.
PlayStation Plus Collection
This is basically Sony’s answer to Game Pass, but it’s not another subscription services. It’s a collection of PS4 games that’ll be avaliable as part of your PS Plus subscription to play on your PS5 at launch
PlayStation 5 Price & Release Date
The console is coming on November 12 for $749.95 AUD or $599.95 (all digital).
God of War: Ragnarök
“The time grows near. You must prepare yourself.”
God of Wars sequels arrives in 2021 for PS5.
That’s everything from the showcase.
