Best PS5 Exclusives in 2026: Editorial Top — What to Play Right Now

In 2026, the PS5 is a mature platform with a rich exclusive library. MBG editors assembled a top of the games that justify console ownership and best demonstrate its capabilities.

1. God of War: Ragnarök

The best narrative game in years. The 2024 DLC Valhalla was free and stands as one of the generation's best expansions.

2. Spider-Man 2

Insomniac brought New York to a new scale. The dual Peter Parker/Miles Morales mechanic creates constant variety. Its technical execution is an industry benchmark.

3. Astro Bot

Team Asobi proved a platformer can be game of the year in 2024. Astro Bot uses DualSense capabilities better than any other title on the platform.

4. Demon's Souls (Bluepoint Remake)

Not new, but the best way to experience the classic. Bluepoint's remake is the gold standard for how to reimagine, not just redraw. Essential for FromSoftware fans.

Verdict

In 2026, the PS5 is the generation's strongest console by first-party library. If you've been waiting for the right moment to buy — it's now.
