All PS5 Games Announced At Gamescom 2025

As a hardcore gamer, I can’t help but get pumped for Gamescom 2025. This annual event is like the Super Bowl of gaming, where we get to witness some of the most epic reveals and updates on anticipated projects. It’s a time filled with excitement and anticipation as the gaming world tunes in to catch a sneak peek at what’s coming up next. The opening night was particularly exhilarating this year, as it brought us some massive announcements that really help shape up the gaming landscape for the following year.

One approach for rephrasing the given sentence in a natural and easy-to-understand manner could be: “One issue with these types of events is that it can sometimes be tough to find out right away which games are headed to your preferred platform, such as PS5, Switch 2, Xbox Series, or PC. To simplify this process, let’s take a look at all the PlayStation 5 games unveiled at Gamescom 2025.

Given that only the initial day of Gamescom has concluded, we can focus on the PlayStation 5 games unveiled during the first evening’s event for our discussion.

Age of Empires 4: Anniversary Edition

PS5 Version Confirmed For November 4

By now, Age of Empires 4 has been around for a couple of years, and it’s widely considered as a solid addition to the acclaimed Real-Time Strategy (RTS) series. Initially released on PC and Xbox, developer Relic Entertainment has announced that the game will make its way to PlayStation 5 on November 4, 2025, under the title “Age of Empires 4: Anniversary Edition.

Black Myth: Zhong Kui

Game Science’s Second Entry In The Black Myth Franchise

The game Black Myth: Zhong Kui hasn’t announced definitively which consoles it will be released on, as we are yet to reach that stage. However, Game Science’s Frequently Asked Questions page indicates the game will release on PC and all major console platforms, suggesting possible availability on PS5, assuming there are no significant delays in its release.

Without a doubt, one of the most shocking reveals during Gamescom’s opening evening was Game Science unveiling “_Black Myth: Zhong Kui_,” the title that will serve as the follow-up to “_Wukong_.” To set the record straight, this game doesn’t appear to be a traditional sequel, and its official FAQ page makes it clear that “_Zhong Kui_” is still in its early stages of development, with much work yet to be done. As a god tasked with capturing ghosts, this upcoming game will delve into Chinese mythology once more, offering players a distinctly different gaming experience compared to the action-packed “_Wukong_.

Bubsy 4D

Bubsy Returns To 3D…Hopefully, It Will Be Better Than Last Time

This isn’t just a practice run – Bubsy 4D signifies the highly anticipated comeback of our bobcat friend in the 3D platformer arena. His last foray was way back in 1996 with Bubsy 3D. Given that its past iteration didn’t exactly shine, it’s safe to say that the upcoming game should at least surpass its initial foray into three dimensions.

Denshattack!

On-The-Rails Mayhem

An exceptionally thrilling platformer game, Denshattack, empowers you as the driver of an out-of-control train. Your mission involves showcasing incredible talents to gather points and humble your adversaries. The idea is intriguing, and its graphics are vibrant, reminiscent of games such as Jet Set Radio.

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe: Dragon Pearl of Destruction

Retro Beat ‘Em Up

Bitmap Bureau primarily concentrates on creating games that resemble classic arcade styles, particularly emphasizing the beat ’em up genre. Their recent efforts like Battle Axe and Final Vendetta have been commendable attempts to recapture the charm of yesteryears, and their upcoming title, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe: Dragon Pearl of Destruction, appears to be their most intriguing project yet. The combat appears to adhere to common genre standards, but the revamped He-Man is expected to set it apart. This game promises 12 stages and a variety of playable characters beyond the main character, the mighty He-Man himself.

Lego Batman: Legacy of The Dark Knight

TT Games Returns Lego And Batman Fans To Gotham

In their return, TT Games is gearing up for another Lego-themed adventure, this time featuring the iconic Batman once more at the helm. The upcoming game, titled Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, places players in the role of protecting Gotham City against the city’s most notorious villains, which boasts one of the most renowned Rogues Galleries in comic book history. At present, details about this game are scarce; however, it appears that its combat system has been influenced by the popular Arkham series. The Legacy of the Dark Knight promises an open-world setting and what seems to be a substantial exploration of Bruce Wayne’s life span.

Lords of the Fallen 2

CI Games’ Soulslike Sequel

Confirmation was made at Gamescom that CI Games is indeed working on Lords of the Fallen 2, a follow-up to their initial game which faced some challenges during its launch but still proved to be decent. With hopes set high for 2026, the sequel aims to expand upon its solid foundation and potentially become one of the top PS5 Soulslike games of that year. As of now, specific details about Lords of the Fallen 2 remain scarce, though it’s expected to boast impressive visuals.

Outlaws + Handful of Missions Remaster

Nightdive’s Remaster Of A 1997 FPS Cult Classic

Nightdive Studios is known for reviving timeless games, and their latest project focuses on the 1997 first-person shooter game, Outlaws, set in the Wild West. This remastered version promises to not only update the storyline of a U.S. Marshal trying to rescue his kidnapped daughter but also features extensive multiplayer modes that even allow for crossplay.

Road Kings

Saber Interactive’s Truck Driving Sim

As a devoted gaming enthusiast, I must say that the Gamescom 2025 announcement of Road Kings, a truck-driving simulator from Saber Interactive, has left me utterly astounded. Given their previous success with titles like SnowRunner, I am confident that this game will deliver an authentic and challenging driving experience, potentially marking the subgenre’s inaugural “next-gen” adventure.

From what I’ve gathered, players will find themselves behind the wheel of a driver striving to establish a name for themselves and expand their portfolio. The courses appear to be inspired by the Florida-Georgia border region, which promises an immersive and exciting gaming environment.

Swords of Legends

Chinese Action RPG (Not Soulslike!)

While Aurogon Shanghai hasn’t explicitly stated that Swords of Legends will be released on PS5, given that it’s confirmed for “PC and consoles,” it’s likely that the PlayStation 5 is included in this category. However, it’s important to note that there are currently no plans for Swords of Legends to be available on mobile devices.

As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled to share the news that GuJian, one of China’s most cherished RPG franchises, is ready to make its global entrance with the imminent launch of Swords of Legends! The 2020s are proving to be a significant milestone for games developed in China, as they start to break through international barriers instead of being confined within our borders.

The upcoming project, Swords of Legends, promises stunning UE5 graphics, seamless action that harmoniously combines melee and magic, and a narrative-driven campaign. What sets it apart is the absence of Soulslike combat, as well as its focus on a storyline rather than an open-world setting.

Exciting times ahead indeed!

Valor Mortis

A PS5 First-Person Soulslike Set During Napoleon’s Era

The game titled “Valor Mortis” appears captivating in written form, and it certainly feels unique too. The developers, One More Level, known for “Ghostrunner“, are working on a first-person action-RPG that resembles the Soulslike genre. In this game, players assume roles as soldiers of Napoleon, plunged into the 19th century. As expected in such a setting, your character meets an untimely demise and awakens to discover a world ravaged by a disease outbreak, with monstrous creatures multiplying across vast territories.

Gamescom Game Reveals That Did Not Confirm PS5 Or Console Versions

La Divina Commedia & Time Takers

As a dedicated gamer, I can’t help but wonder if these thrilling games are bound for our beloved consoles, or if they’ll remain exclusively on PC for now. The hints are there, but as of right now, it’s only been confirmed that they’re heading to the PC platform.

La Divina Commedia – An exciting dark fantasy action RPG that takes inspiration from Dante Alighieri’s The Divine Comedy, Jyamma Games has only confirmed a PC release so far. That said, the official site mentions “Other Platforms TBA,” so a PS5 version could be on the cards.
Time Takers – NCSoft’s new hero shooter is only 100% confirmed for Steam at this point, but console ports seem relatively likely.
