The PS5 is only a month away from launching, and we now have a much clearer idea of what the launch lineup will include. Outside of that, though, many games have already been confirmed for Sony's next-generation gaming machine. As such, we've compiled all the games so far that have been announced for PS5.
A little bit of clarification is needed here before we start. Because the PS5 is backward compatible with "almost all" PS4 games, we're listing games that specifically include listed PS5 support. Some of them are exclusive in some capacity, some will be Sony Worldwide Studios titles, some are next-generation hardware only, and others are available on current systems. There are also options, particularly the newer games, that may take advantage of the DualSense controller. Here's a list of every game coming to PS5 that we know of.
Some major PS5 games:
PS5 Assassin's Creed Valhalla
The latest in the long-running Ubisoft franchise, Assassin's Creed Valhalla, is being led by Ubisoft Montreal and takes players to Norway and England. We know from Ubisoft that Assassin's Creed Valhalla will be available on PS5, though we're not sure what exact enhancements will be offered.
Assassin's Creed Valhalla
After endless wars ravage Norway and resources are scarce, you'll lead your clan to the shores of England in the hopes of finding a new home. However, not everyone is keen on having Vikings around, and King Alfred of Wessex will do all he can to keep you from settling.
PS5 Astro's Playroom
Astro Bot is back in some platforming fun on the PS5. This game, developed by Japan Studio, serves as a demo of sorts for the different haptic feedback levels in the DualSense controller. It also comes pre-installed on every PS5. You can check out a bit of Astro's Playroom gameplay here.

PS5 Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Quarantine
This spin-off title was first announced at E3 2019, eschewing counter-terrorism operations for survival against the infected.

Whenever it does arrive, Rainbow Six Quarantine is set to get PS5 and Xbox Series X support.
PS5 Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege
First released in 2015, Ubisoft's Rainbow Six Siege has received years of support, adding dozens of new operators, maps, and more. Ubisoft has confirmed that Rainbow Six Siege will get updated to take advantage of the PS5 and Xbox Series X.
