The PS5 is slowly becoming its own console and many top games are coming soon.

There are still some big releases to come in 2022, but many players are looking forward to the year ahead. As 2023 rolls around, more highly-anticipated titles will be released on the PS5.

Ten games tower above the rest in terms of excitement. Gamers are as hyped as ever for the launch schedule Sony has laid out, and it feels like 2023 can’t get here soon enough.


2023 is looking very promising for PS5 players

10) Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League

The hype surrounding Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has slowly died down. Plenty of other revelations have put it on hold, but Rocksteady Studios has promised an early 2023 launch.

The title will see a PS5 release and focuses on DC Comics’ famous Suicide Squad. It takes place in an open-world metropolis where the Justice League has gone rogue. The squad is tasked with stopping them and saving the world.


9) Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic

The remake of one of the best RPGs of all time is in the cucumber. The development team behind it at Aspyr Media was largely fired and the game was transferred to Saber Interactive.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is slated for release in 2023, but that could change with its new studio. Not much has been officially mentioned, so fans still have reason to look forward to a 2023 release.


8) Horizon Call of the Mountain

Horizon Call of the Mountain brings the popular PlayStation franchise to the PS5 in virtual reality. It will be connected via PSVR 2 and will be the leading title for the technology.

Players will take on the role of a brand new character, but will still encounter familiar faces like Aloy. It will continue to include all aspects of a Horizon game, only from a first-person VR perspective.


7) Final Fantasy VII Rebirth

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is the upcoming next chapter in the acclaimed titular remake trilogy. It will be a PS5 exclusive and will be released in 2023, although there is no definitive release date yet.

Players can expect incredible graphics, fast-paced action, and a retelling of the popular Final Fantasy VII. In recent times, for Square Enix fans, there may not be a better time than 2023.


6) Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora

The Avatar franchise is making a comeback with several sequels revealed. There are also a number of games that are added to the mix. Frontiers of Pandora is the most anticipated of them all.

Players can jump into PS5 and venture into parts of Pandora they’ve never seen before. This new standalone story will feature a Na’vi traveling through the western border to fight the menacing RDA forces.


5) Hogwarts Legacy

Hogwarts Legacy has had its fair share of development issues, but it finally has a release date. Players on PS5 and several other systems can get their hands on the Harry Potter spin-off on February 10th, 2023.

Set to take place in the late 18th century, the game puts the player in the role of a Hogwarts student. They are assigned a house, must take courses and learn magic while fighting back or succumbing to the dark arts.


4) Marvel’s Wolverine

Marvel’s Wolverine is Insomniac Games’ attempt to expand the Marvel Universe for PS5. It is expected to launch in 2023, but little is known about the game.

From the trailer it appears that Logan is just trying to get by in life and needs to use his powers to maintain his solitude and peace. This won’t go well for the mutant.


3) Final Fantasy XVI

It’s wild to think that the sixteenth iteration of Final Fantasy is on the way. The PS5 exclusive will be released in mid-2023, with Square Enix giving a Q2 or Q3 window.

In the fantasy world of Valisthea, players will face many dangers that threaten life as they know it. The current plot points revolve around Eikons, human-summoned monsters called Dominants.


2) Leave

Forspoken will be released on January 24, 2023. It will likely be the first game on this list to come out on the PS5 when 2022 is gone. It’s a great way to start the new year.

The game focuses on the journey of a character named Frey. She is from New York but was teleported to a magical land called Athia. Players must use their new skills to bring them home.


1) Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

The first Marvel Spider-Man game set a precedent for modern-day superhero games. It’s arguably the best superhero game ever made, and fans have been wanting more ever since the Miles Morales spin-off was released.

The sequel features Miles and Peter Parker working together to protect New York City. In the PS5 Exclusive, both Spider-Men will face their most dangerous foe yet in the form of Venom.
