It is hard to believe that we are already in September, isn’t it? There have been so many great releases already so far this year in the world of PlayStation.

If you want to share your hopes for these games, consider joining PlayStation forums to discuss with other players.

Here are the Best Upcoming PlayStation Games

Below are the games coming out for PS4 and PS5 in the near future. Note that not every game that is released on PS5 is also coming out for PS4. Incidentally, prices are going up for PS5. So, hopefully, you already have one. But frankly, even at the new, higher price tag, a current-gen PlayStation console is worth it.

• Lord of the Rings: Gollum: September 1^st, 2022: Get ready to embark on a “stealth-action adventure with an intriguing dual-personality mechanic, gigantic levels, and a densely wrought aesthetic inspired by Tolkien’s own drawings.” This sounds like it will be an astonishing and unique journey to Middle Earth with some interesting mechanics at work.
• The Last of Us Part 1: September 2^nd, 2022: Gamers who love the original The Last of Us will not want to miss out on the chance to experience Joel and Ellie’s journey in a whole new way. The overhauled version of the game released as The Last of Us Part 1 includes enhanced graphics, animations, combat, and more.
• Overwatch 2: October 4^th, 2022: The free-to-play Overwatch 2 early access opens close to the start of October. Story Missions and new heroes are some of the features that will add excitement and variety to this new installment in Blizzard’s shooter series.
• Marvel’s Midnight Suns: October 7^th, 2022: In this Marvel game, you get to play as a customizable hero who leads a team of 12 others in the fight against Lillith, Mother of Demons.
• A Plague Tale: Requiem: October 18^th, 2022: In the sequel to A Plague Tale: Innocence, Hugo and Amicia are again struggling with Hugo’s curse. In an attempt to find a cure, they are journeying to an island that may offer some hope. Find out what happens next in their story.
• New Tales from the Borderlands: October 21^st, 2022: This is a follow-up to the Tales from the Borderlands series, but with development by Gearbox Software. The characters and story will be brand-new, and the game will feature five chapters.
• Gotham Knights: October 25^th, 2022: Robin, Batgirl, Red Hood, and Nightwing need to defend the “most dynamic interactive Gotham City yet” from the likes of Mr. Freeze and the Court of Owls. Batman is dead, so they are on their own.
• Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2: October 28^th, 2022: Captain Price is ready for his next mission in the sequel to the 2019 reboot of Modern Warfare. Improved vehicles, water physics, and AI await you in Modern Warfare 2.
• Skull and Bones: November 8^th, 2022: Gamers hankering for a high seas adventure will love the maritime action of Skull and Bones. This is a Ubisoft game, so, not surprisingly, it bears some resemblance to some elements of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag. There is also a multiplayer mode.
• Sonic Frontiers: November 8^th, 2022: The same day Skull and Bones comes out, gamers will be able to join Sonic in an “open-zone” title for a new adventure.
• God of War Ragnarok: November 9^th, 2022: The next installment in God of War will be here in just a few short months. Then again, it may feel like ages waiting to join Kratos and Atreus as they battle Norse gods and monsters.
• Cobra Kai 2: Dojos Rising: The next season of Cobra Kai is coming in September, and the next Cobra Kai video game will be coming out sometime this fall.
• The Callisto Protocol: December 2^nd, 2022: You play an inmate in a prison on the moon Callisto in this game, surrounded by prisoners who are transforming into monsters. You are tasked with unraveling a conspiracy and surviving these horrific events in a game that is said to be similar to Dead Space.
• Final Fantasy 7: Crisis Core Reunion: Winter 2022: This game is a remaster of the original from 2008 that will come with improved models and graphics as well as new voiceovers and music.
• Forever Skies: TBC 2022: This game is set in a future where climate change has made the world harshly inhospitable. You must survive on your zeppelin and look for a way to reverse the effects of climate change.
• Open Roads: TBC 2022: Another game without an exact release date yet for later this year is Open Roads by Fullbright, the same team that brought you Gone Home. Join a mother and daughter who are on a road trip to learn more about their family’s past.
• Little Devil Inside: TBC 2022: There is no specific release date yet for this game either. Developed by Neostream interactive, it takes you to a world that is based on the 19^th century and tasks you with exploring surreal environments as you investigate the supernatural and attempt to catalogue it. The developers explain, “This game is not just about killing arch-demons and saving the world. Take in the atmosphere and live a real life in an unrealistic world. This is a game that tells stories about people with ‘unusual’ jobs such as hunting monsters and what happens in their everyday life doing so.”

With so many games slated for release in the next few months, the rest of 2022 is shaping up to be an exciting time for gamers on PS5 and PS4. Don’t forget to hop on a PlayStation forum as you are waiting. Discussing these and other PlayStation games with fellow players will help you stay busy as you wait for the games you are looking forward to the most.
