From Indiana Jones and the Great Circle to Borderlands 4, there were a whole lot of PS5 games at the Gamescom 2024 showcase to get excited about!All PS5 games announced at the Gamescom 2024 showcase13 new PS5 games were revealed at Gamescom's Opening Night Live 2024These include big titles such as Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Mafia The Old Country and moreSony will follow up these announcements with a PlayStation Showcase in September 2024The Gamescom 2024 showcase aired live on Wednesday, August 20, 2024, revealing 13 brand new PS5 games during the course of the show. That's a great turnout for PlayStation consoles given the fact that Sony didn't even directly attend Gamescom this year.Below, we'll run through all of the brand new PS5 games announced during the Opening Night Live showcase this year. That said, there were also new trailers for big games like Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, Monster Hunter Wilds, Infinity Nikki, Call of Duty Black Ops 6, and more. All-in-all, the showcase was a great reminder of what lies in store for PS5 players in the next year.However, for now, let's focus on all 13 new PS5 announcements made at the Gamescom 2024 showcase.Indiana Jones and the Great CircleWhen available, you can find those Indiana Jones and the Great Circle trophies hereRelease Date: Spring 2025Available on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PCYou can imagine our shock at this Indiana Jones and the Great Circle PS5 announcement! Rumors were abound that Microsoft would reveal a new PS5 game at Gamescom 2024, but never would we have guessed it was going to be a title quite as big and as shiny as the upcoming Indiana Jones game.Developed by MachineGames, the studio behind Wolfenstein The New Order, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle lets you embody Indy from the first-person perspective. You'll have Indy's classic whip at your side to help traverse tricky jumps and beat up those wily bad guys. Plus, you'll solve puzzles and get into shootouts as if you were playing Uncharted from a new perspective. We're looking forward to this one!Mafia The Old CountryWhen available, you can find those Mafia The Old Country trophies hereRelease Date: 2025Available on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PCThis prequel to the Mafia series will take us to 1900s Sicily and introduce us to a world of classic organized crime. Not much is known about the game other than its setting at the moment, but Hanger 13 — the studio behind Mafia III — is back for this one. So, you can expect a very solid crime game at the least.Civilization VIIWhen available, you can find those Civilization VII trophies hereRelease Date: February 11, 2025Available on: PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PCWhile Sid Meier's Civilization VII was teased earlier this year, we'll allow it on this list of new games because this is the first time we actually get to see it in action! So far, it looks pretty much like most Civ games, but expect the devil to lie in the details with this series. For example, this time you'll be able to mix-and-match leaders and civilizations for more strategy!Borderlands 4When available, you can find those Borderlands 4 trophies hereRelease Date: 2025Available on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PCThe rubbish film adaptation and Borderlands 3's PS5 player count drop aside, the people evidently still clamber for more Borderlands content. So, it looks like Gearbox will deliver with the fourth installment in the series. We don't know anything about the game yet, except that it will come to PS5 in the near future.Dying Light The BeastWhen available, you can find those Dying Light The Beast trophies hereRelease Date: 2024Available on: PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PCDying Light 2 was unfortunately TrueTrophies Staff Writer Sean's most disappointing game of 2022, so the series will have to go a little bit out of its way to impress us in this next entry. Luckily, it seems Dying Light The Beast is a more stripped back affair, and it comes free to anyone who owns Dying Light 2's "Ultimate Edition" on the PS Store. Here's hoping the series bounces back into Sean's good graces!FloatopiaWhen available, you can find those Floatopia trophies hereRelease Date: 2025Available on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, PC, iOS, AndroidYou're thinking it, I'm thinking it — Floatopia looks a lot like Animal Crossing. That, I believe, is as good a reason as any to give it some attention, as there's a chance that PS5 players might finally get the cozy island-building simulator they've always dreamed of. It's also got pretty fluid-looking online play, so here's hoping it turns out well in the end.Goat Simulator RemasteredWhen available, you can find those Goat Simulator Remastered trophies hereRelease Date: 2024Available on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PCHave we hit the bottom of the barrel when it comes to PS5 remasters already? This updated version of the irreverent PS4 "classic" includes all the DLC released over the years, plus a new lick of paint for the graphics. However, rest assured, it'll still be as buggy as you remember. That's not me saying that, that's the developers!Lost Records Bloom and Rage Tape 1When available, you can find those Lost Records Bloom and Rage trophies hereRelease Date: Tuesday, February 18, 2025Available on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PCThis is another game we've already seen revealed before, but seeing as this is the first time we've seen Lost Records in motion, it only feels right to put it on the list. As you might expect from the developer behind Life is Strange, Lost Records' gameplay largely involves you making narrative decisions as a story unfurls before your eyes.We also learned that the game will launch in two parts: Tape 1 will release on PS5 on Tuesday, February 18, 2025, and the later Tape 2 will launch on Tuesday, March 18, 2025. Expect high drama and potentially some fantastical hijinks as the band "Bloom and Rage" gets caught up in some unexplained phenomena and deals with the ramifications over two time periods.Revenge of the Savage PlanetWhen available, you can find those Revenge of the Savage Planet trophies hereRelease Date: 2025Available on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PCOne of the most celebrated indie survival games of the last few years, Journey to the Savage Planet, is getting a sequel and making a big jump to PS5. This time, the survival action will be set across four planets, and the game aims to make the most out of the extra power with online and split-screen co-op multiplayer options.ReanimalWhen available, you can find those Reanimal trophies hereRelease Date: 2025Available on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PCLittle Nightmares III made a brief appearance during the show, but it can't help but feel a little upstaged by the outstanding looking Reanimal — the co-op horror game follow-up from Little Nightmares' original creators. Gameplay wise, it looks like you are simply running for your life with a friend from all the horrors of the night.King of MeatWhen available, you can find those King of Meat trophies hereRelease Date: 2024Available on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, PCFrom a team of ex-Media Molecule staff comes King of Meat — a cooperative gauntlet survival game that feels a lot like a grungy, medieval take on Fall Guys. I'm a big sucker for Fall Guys, so I'm happy to see more developers taking their own spin on the It's a Knockout format. Here's hoping it lives up to that Media Molecule pedigree!RoadcraftWhen available, you can find those Roadcraft trophies hereRelease Date: 2025Available on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PCSo many strategy sims gloss over the amount of planning and consideration building roads requires. Well, finally someone's standing up for all the civil engineers of the world with the upcoming PS5 game Roadcraft. The Saber Interactive title sees you reconnecting roads in various areas hit by natural disasters, and the gameplay looks soothing and compelling in much the same way Powerwash Simulator was in 2022.Nikoderiko The Magical WorldWhen available, you can find those Nikoderiko The Magical World trophies hereRelease Date: October 2024Available on: PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, PCThis PS5 platformer looks like its gameplay falls somewhere between Crash Bandicoot and Donkey Kong Country, and honestly, that sounds like music to my ears. Colorful environments, big bad boss battles, and local co-op multiplayer all help seal the deal — definitely keep an eye out for Nikoderiko later this year!That's a lot of future contenders for our best PS5 games to consider!
