00:00Dude, if you own a PS5, you need to see this.
00:032026 is going to be insane, and some of these games are about to shock the world.
00:09These are the 18 most talked about PlayStation 5 games coming in 2026.
00:14And no, these aren't just rumors.
00:16These are the most anticipated blockbusters and hidden gems that are driving the entire gaming community crazy.
00:22Get ready to update your wish list, because your PS5 is about to get you addicted all over again.
00:301. Seros
00:33Kicking off the list is a title that has the entire sci-fi community buzzing, Seros.
00:39We don't know much, but the initial teaser showed a level of environmental scale and lighting fidelity that screams next-gen, and that alone has us obsessed.
00:49The speculation is that this will be a massive open-world space exploration RPG, but focused heavily on a single, dynamically generated planet.
01:00The core mechanic that everyone is talking about is the seamless planetary transition system, potentially leveraging the PS5's SSD speed to an insane degree, eliminating loading times between orbit and surface.
01:12The narrative hook is also intriguing, leaning into deep cosmic horror and isolation, similar to Dead Space, but with the scope of No Man's Sky.
01:21If they nail the resource management and make the exploration loop feel meaningful, this is going to be the star field rival that PS5 owners have been dreaming of.
01:30I personally can't wait to see if the procedural generation can feel as handcrafted as a traditional open world.
01:37If the combat is as tight as the visuals, Seros is going to be a must-own technical showpiece that dominates the 2026 conversation.
01:492. Resident Evil Requiem
01:52Next up, we have a game that is guaranteed to sell systems. Resident Evil Requiem.
01:58The franchise is on fire, and the rumors suggest this is the final chapter in the Ethan Winter storyline, which immediately raises the narrative stakes to a breaking point.
02:08The core hook is the promised return to the classic Raccoon City-style urban environment, but rendered with the incredible visual fidelity and over-the-shoulder perspective of the recent remakes.
02:19That blend of nostalgia and modern terror is guaranteed to be a 10 out of 10 experience.
02:25The buzz is around the AI system. We're hoping for a dynamic threat system similar to RE2's Mr. X, but far more persistent, using the PS5's processing power to ensure enemy placement and behavior are never the same twice.
02:40This ensures massive replay value.
02:43For me, I'm just desperate to see how they utilize the DualSense haptics and 3D audio in a dense city environment.
02:50The immersion factor is going to be overwhelming, turning simple exploration into a heart-stopping exercise in resource management.
02:59Requiem is going to be the undisputed champion of survival horror in 2026.
03:043. 007 First Light
03:13Let's talk about the spy thriller that everyone is betting on to redefine the genre, 007 First Light.
03:20Developed by the masters of polish, this game is poised to deliver a high-fidelity cinematic experience that finally gives James Bond the video game he deserves.
03:30The core value is the stealth-action hybrid design.
03:34We're expecting a highly evolved version of the hitman or splinter cell structure, focusing on gadget utility and player choice.
03:41The environment is the puzzle, and your tools are the solution.
03:45The technical demand here is the complex environmental interaction.
03:49The narrative hook is the return to a younger, more ruthless bond, which sets the stage for massive emotional consequences.
03:55The hype suggests a strong focus on performance capture and branching dialogue systems, giving the narrative a feeling of deep player agency.
04:04My personal obsession is the vehicular combat and chase sequences.
04:09We're hoping for a level of kinetic fluidity that rivals Uncharted, but with the customizable gadgets of a true spy game.
04:16First Light is a must-watch because it's targeting a gap in the market for a polished, high-stakes cinematic espionage thriller.
04:254. Code Vein 2
04:29Rounding out this block, we have the highly anticipated sequel for the fans of anime-style action RPGs, Code Vein 2.
04:38The first game was a great Souls-like with an incredible vibe, and the sequel is set to refine the formula into a massive hit.
04:47The core value is the fast-paced, aggressive combat mixed with an insanely deep class customization system.
04:54The first game's blood code system allowed for incredible flexibility, and the sequel is rumored to expand this into a huge skill tree sandbox, letting you switch your entire build on the fly.
05:06The visual aesthetic is the biggest hook.
05:09It's going to be a gorgeous blend of post-apocalyptic anime design rendered with top-tier PS5 graphical fidelity.
05:17This combination gives the game a unique edge in the crowded Souls-like market.
05:21I'm personally excited to see the evolution of the Pioneer partner mechanic.
05:26Having a customized companion that offers support and opens new combat avenues is a huge part of the series' identity.
05:34Code Vein 2 is going to be the best investment for players who want a challenging mechanical experience wrapped up in an unforgettable visual style.
05:42There is no discussion about 2026 without mentioning the undisputed king, Grand Theft Auto VI.
05:58This isn't just a game release, it's a cultural event, and the hype cycle for this title is driving the entire industry crazy.
06:05The core value here is the immense open-world fidelity, and the promise of player agency.
06:12We're talking about Vice City and the surrounding areas, rendered with a level of environmental simulation that will redefine the genre.
06:20Rumors suggest an unprecedented depth in NPC interaction and world systems.
06:25The narrative hook of playing as a duo, Lucia and her male partner, immediately excites the community, promising a dynamic, Bonnie and Clyde-style crime epic.
06:36This dual protagonist system is a massive leap in storytelling for the series.
06:42For me, the obsession is the technical scale.
06:44How will the PS5's SSD handle seamless transition across such a massive, dense world?
06:52This game is a guaranteed system seller, and an investment in hundreds of hours of chaotic, detailed sandbox gameplay.
07:00GTA VI is the game that will dominate the conversation for the next five years.

07:21Yes, you heard that right.
07:23Master Chief is coming to the PS5.
07:27This is a historic, platform-shifting release that everyone is talking about.
07:32The core value is the modernized remake of the original Halo Combat Evolved campaign, built from the ground up in Unreal Engine 5.
07:40The high-definition visuals and refined controls mean PS5 players get the definitive version of a genre-defining FPS, complete with two-player split-screen co-op.
07:52The big hype factor is the expanded content.
07:56We're getting three new prequel missions that dive deeper into the Master Chief and Sergeant Johnson's story, which is massive for the lore fans.
08:05Plus, the inclusion of tons of gameplay-modifying skulls adds unbelievable replay value.
08:11This is essential playing because it's a piece of gaming history, rebuilt and polished for the PS5.
08:19The tight, focused FPS mechanics and the legendary level design are things every gamer needs to experience.
08:26It's a huge, unexpected win for the PlayStation community.
08:337. Marvel Tokon Fighting Souls
08:37Let's move to the fighting game that looks like it stepped right out of an anime.
08:41Marvel Tokon Fighting Souls.
08:43Developed by Arc System Works, the legends behind Guilty Gear, this game is a guaranteed visual spectacle and mechanical powerhouse.
08:52The core hook is the stunning anime-style graphical fidelity applied to the Marvel Universe.
08:58This isn't just another fighter.
09:00It's a beautiful, fast-paced 4v4 team-based fighter that focuses on synergy and chaotic team-up moves.
09:08The aesthetic alone is why everyone is talking about it.
09:11The technical depth is huge.
09:14Arc System Works always delivers an incredibly tight input system and complex character mechanics.
09:19We're already seeing beta tests showcasing 8 characters, including Ghost Rider and Spider-Man, each with unique chaining and assist mechanics.
09:28I am personally obsessed with the lobby system, which supports up to 64 players with adorable chibi avatars.
09:35This ensures the community engagement and competitive loop will be massive.
09:39Tokon is the must-play fighting game of 2026 for its incredible style and deep, rewarding mechanics.
09:518. Onimusha, Way of the Sword
09:54Rounding out this block, we head back to feudal Japan with a highly anticipated return to a legendary franchise, Onimusha, Way of the Sword.
10:03Capcom is bringing back its classic survival action series, and the buzz is immense.
10:09The core value is the blend of brutal samurai combat with classic Capcom survival horror atmosphere.
10:16You'll be playing as a lone warrior, wielding the powerful Oni gauntlet, fighting demonic Genma in a miasma-infused Kyoto.
10:23That mix of mythology and high-stakes action is a huge hook.
10:28The combat system is expected to be a modern take on the original's precise timing and one-hit kills, Issen, demanding high player skill and focus.
10:37The mechanical depth will come from mastering the unique powers of the Oni gauntlet to absorb souls and power up.
10:44The narrative hook of returning to the Edo period with a solitary samurai theme has us all excited.
10:52Way of the Sword is a must-play because it's a brilliant franchise comeback that promises to deliver intense, focused, and stylish action-adventure on the PS5.
11:079. Pragmata
11:09Next up is the game that has been shrouded in beautiful, cryptic mystery since its reveal, Pragmata.
11:17Capcom is using this title to push the absolute limits of the PS5, and the few glimpses we've seen are enough to fuel the hype train straight into 2026.
11:28The core visual hook is the stunning sci-fi environment, and the focus on a single, compelling little girl.
11:36The game is said to heavily feature advanced physics and lighting systems.
11:40Look for those crazy, dramatic shifts in lighting and environment.
11:45It's a technical showcase built on Capcom's masterful RE engine.
11:50The gameplay mechanic that has us talking is the use of hacking and environmental manipulation in a hostile, lunar environment.
11:58You play as Hugh, protecting the girl Diana, and utilizing high-tech gadgets to solve complex environmental puzzles, while fighting for survival against an oppressive AI.
12:11I am personally obsessed with the narrative concept.
12:14It feels like Death Stranding meets Gaunts, delivered with Capcom's unique flair for action.
12:20If the combat loop is as tight as their Resident Evil remakes, Pragmata is going to be a must-play, piece of high-concept sci-fi adventure.
12:33Number 10. Marvel's Wolverine
12:36There's no doubt about this one being talked about constantly.
12:40Marvel's Wolverine.

12:51This is a game built for the PS5's hardware.
12:55The core hook is the promise of brutal, kinetic melee combat, with an actual sense of weight and danger.
13:01We're expecting a deep damage and healing system.
13:04Feeling the dual-sense haptics as Logan's claws extend, or his body regenerates, is going to be next-level tactile immersion.
13:13The buzz is all around the open-world structure and traversal.
13:16We know we're going to places like Madripoor and the Canadian Tundra.
13:21How will Wolverine's movement, his sheer power, change the way we interact with a typical open world?
13:27That's the mechanical anticipation everyone has.
13:30This is essential because it fills a huge gap for a mature, aggressive superhero game.

14:10The narrative pedigree alone ensures a phenomenal experience.
14:15The core hook is the shift in theme.

14:24This suggests a complex, mature, narrative RPG with deep, character-driven storytelling.

15:48The combat system is the biggest hook.
15:50It looks brutal, focused, and deeply satisfying, mixing heavy melee attacks, combo chains, and environmental interaction.
