New games announced at PS5 Showcase, including Final Fantasy XVI, Hogwarts Legacy, and a new God of War title
This is truly an exciting time for all of us at PlayStation. Over the past few months, we’ve been able to show you a glimpse of the stunning new games being created for PlayStation 5, taking advantage of the console’s unique capabilities to deliver lightning-fast loading, heightened immersion, and a whole new generation of experiences. And we’re excited that the time for you to experience these brave new adventures is almost here.
As we have just announced in our PS5 Showcase, we’re only a couple of months away from launching the next generation of play. Starting on November 12, PS5 will be available in seven key markets: the U.S., Japan, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand and South Korea. The global rollout will continue on November 19 with launches throughout the rest of the world*, including Europe, Middle East, South America, Asia and South Africa. PS5 Digital Edition will be available for a recommended retail price (RRP) of $399.99 USD/$499 CAD/¥39,980/€399.99/£359.99 (MSRP), and PS5 with an Ultra HD Blu-ray disc drive will be available for an RRP of $499.99 USD/$629 CAD/¥49,980/€499.99/£449.99 (MSRP). Pre-orders will be available starting as early as tomorrow at select retailers, so please check with your local retailer.
We’re pleased to provide choice to gamers with two PS5 console options at launch, depending on if you want a digital-only experience or prefer disc-based gaming. Whichever PS5 you choose, you’ll enjoy the same breathtaking, next-gen gaming experiences. Both PS5 models use the same custom processor with integrated CPU and GPU for high-fidelity visuals, including 4K graphics and ray-tracing support, as well as the same ultra-high-speed SSD with integrated I/O for lightning-fast loading. PS5’s 3D audio and the DualSense Wireless Controller will also provide the same heightened sense of immersion on all PS5s.
We are proud of the breadth of games being created for PS5, and it’s our goal to continue filling our portfolio with new, rich experiences from the most talented game creators in the industry. Today we shared a sneak peek at the following new games coming to PS5:
- Devil May Cry 5 Special Edition (Capcom)
- Final Fantasy XVI (Square Enix)
- Five Nights at Freddy’s Security Breach (Steel Wool Studios and ScottGames)
- Hogwarts Legacy (Warner Bros. Games)
- New God of War title (Santa Monica Studio)
These newly revealed titles, along with the games we’ve shown previously, represent the best lineup we’ve ever seen in PlayStation history. Games like Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War, and Demon’s Souls will launch alongside the console. Our own Worldwide Studios titles will be priced from US$49.99 to US$69.99 (RRP) on PS5.
Additionally, we know that the PS4 community will transition to PS5 at different times, and we’re happy to announce PS4 versions of some of our exclusives. Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Sackboy A Big Adventure, and Horizon Forbidden West will also launch on PS4. While these three games were designed to take advantage of PS5 and its unique next-gen features like the ultra-high-speed SSD and DualSense controller, PS4 owners will also be able to enjoy these experiences when they launch. The PS4 digital versions of launch games include a free upgrade on both PS5 consoles, while the PS4 disc versions of these games include a free upgrade on the PS5 with Ultra HD Blu-Ray disc drive.
For PlayStation Plus members, we’ll have a special new offering on PS5 – the PlayStation Plus Collection**. PS5 owners with PS Plus will be able to download and play a curated library of PS4 games that defined the generation, like Batman Arkham Knight, Bloodborne, Fallout 4, God of War, Monster Hunter: World, Persona 5 and many more. The PS Plus Collection will be an added benefit to the existing PS4 benefits that PS Plus members receive for a single subscription price.

This year has been unlike any other, and there have been many challenges the world has faced. Everyone at PlayStation, along with all of our partners in development, publishing, technology, and retail, have devoted a lot of effort to launch PlayStation 5 in time for the holiday season. We’re all working closely together to achieve our mission of delivering the best that gaming has to offer to our community. I truly want to thank you, the fans, for your tremendous support (and patience!), while we take this journey to PS5. We can’t wait for November to arrive – when you’ll be able to get a PS5 console in your hands to begin exploring new adventures and creating new epic memories for many years to come.

Can we transfer our PS4 saves to the PS5?
No warning for pre order smh
I don’t know what it takes to get a preorder email, but been with you all since ps1, have psnow an plus spend a ton of cask regularly on only digital purchases an still no hint of a preorder. Feel like Playstation is treating its users more an more like garbage.
Gotta love how. “Preorders starts as early as tomorrow.” Turned into starts in a few hours. I completely missed out because no one knew they where starting after the stream
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE EARLY INVITE?!!!!Sony needs to change how they do this. They should just offer preorders to existing PS+ subscribers first and then if there’s anything left supply the retailers.
Great. When can we pre-order it?
Before I ordered the PS5 I visited this page fortunately. 1 euro is equal with 1.18 $
I live in EU and I have to pay 80 euros for a game. :D huh. I think this is the end of 20 years of loyality. I am so disappointed. :( bye bye video games, hello real world :)
Is the PS5 going to be USB Audio Class 2 compliant? This is necessary to be able to connect it to the vast majority of Digital to Analogue Converters (DACS). This is even more essential now that the optical out is gone. Your current Audio Specs just mention “Tempest” 3D AudioTech without any additional detail.
Stoked for the console but bummed that companies immediately sold out, even after signing up way in advance to preorder… Missed a dedicated fan here :/
You know Sony you guys messed up big-time I was at GameStop at the mall in Victorville California and I was waiting for the pre-order announcement since 1:30 p.m. and I left the mall and just found out today since pre-orders was supposed to start today that yesterday at GameStop you guys announced pre-order started at 3 now I miss my opportunity this is bull
i was denied the preorder because of activity and previous interest. i preordered on aug 26 on time first come first serve basis and then the worst part is i have activity and had previous interest. I cant even buy it anywhere else cause its sold out. i spent 1000s of dollars on playstation to get treated like this: thats crazy.
Please send me an email to get a console.

How does pre-orders work
If we got a email to the exclusive pre order, does that actually matter anymore since all other retailers are sold out? Did I lose out on waiting for this exclusive opportunity to just not be able to pre order?
If you were selected, you can have a chance to buy from Sony directly. They did not open their pre orders yet. Only retail stores
