Summary with all the games presented for PS5 during the digital event on June 11. Spider-Man, Horizon, Gran Turismo and much more.
Sony pleaded for the presentation of the first PS5 games, but this June 11 has been the date chosen by the Japanese company to kick off a catalog full of exclusive games not only within the family of PlayStation consoles, but from your new machine. The intergenerational model is ruled out: we have seen games for PlayStation 5. Here is a summary with all those games.

Grand Theft Auto 5, 130 million reasons to be on PS5
GTA 5 is one of the best-selling games in all history. More than 130 million players attest that Rockstar’s most successful play had to be in the new generation of Sony. It will do so with visual improvements, as they themselves have confirmed, in addition to the occasional novelty that we will be hearing about soon. If someone expected a possible Grand Theft Auto VI, we are afraid that it will be necessary to wait, because the reason why there is still no GTA 6 is none other than GTA 5.
Miles Morales is Spider-Man and we will play him in 2020
We leave Los Angeles and go to Manhattan. Insomniac Games has surprised locals and strangers, has stirred the editorial staff of FreeGameTips by presenting against all odds Spider-Man: Miles Morales, which will arrive this year on PlayStation 5. We will play it in 2020, and that’s great news for those who enjoyed of the original work of 2018 and want to continue learning about the universe of the wall-climbing by the study responsible for Ratchet & Clank. The black character created by Brian Michael Bendis (Ultimate Spider-Man – 2012) takes center stage.

Ratchet & Clank returns with a whole new installment
And speaking of the Insomniac hero pair, we also have Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, albeit with no release date. We can confirm that this is a completely new installment, it is not a remake, and we will also agree that it looks scandalous. If we wanted examples of how to take advantage of the PS5 hardware without having to resort to photorealism but with many particles, lighting and open stages, here is a good example. From the trailer we extract that there will be an overboard again to move, we will fly over giant animals and we will cross interdimensional portals. Promise? Promises
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
Polyphony Digital steps on the gas: Gran Turismo 7
Gran Turismo Sport has made it clear that a GT focused on online mode can work very well, but traditional campaign mode, the true hallmark of the saga, cannot be missing. Its community is large, but Gran Turismo 7 will seek to make everything even bigger, recovering what made the license enter the history books with Gran Turismo 4 as a possible culmination. Technically it speaks for itself. You can see here the trailer for this new installment, whose release date is currently unknown.
Gran Turismo 7
Stray, the new Bluetwelve and Annapura Inteactive
Another interesting title of the presentation was Stray, a game developed by Bluetwelve and published by Annapurna Interactive. A title set in a futuristic world with touches of cyberpunk and science fiction. Its launch is scheduled for next year 2021, so in less than it seems we will be an animal with seven lives in this curious proposal.
Kena: Bridge of Spirits
Kena: Bridge of Spirits, do you know the spirits?
With Kena: Bridge of Spirits we will put ourselves in the piece of a catalyst of spirits. Ember Lab has announced this title so precious at a visual level where they assure that we will have an exciting adventure. The premise is clear: the dead are not completely gone. Throughout the expertise we will meet other characters; some of them enemies. At the moment there is no release date.

Project Athia, pure muscle with Luminous Engine
Square Enix did not want to miss the appointment with Project Athia, a game under the graphic engine Luminous Engine, the same one that was used at the time for Final Fantasy XV. A category AAA third-person adventure. We can move freely in a huge world full of monsters and dragons. It is exclusive to PS5 on consoles, although it will also come to PC. It seems that it is a long-term project that we will not see precisely soon.

The Media Molecule Sackboy is back
We haven’t had a new LittleBigPlanet, but we have Sackboy: A Big Adventure. Lovers of the platform genre cannot complain after the PS5 launch event. The charismatic character, Sackboy, is back in this spin-off that will take us on a classic 3D platform adventure. Elements of LittleBigPlanet will be kept, but the goal is to be more similar to the recent ideas of other titles such as Super Mario 3D World, with which it keeps certain similarities in its visual perspective. Known faces, new ones, and lots of different situations.

Shinji Mikami shows us Ghostwire: Tokyo
Sony and Tango Gameworks have shown the first gameplay of Ghostwire: Tokyo, the new Shinji Mikami. The one who is one of the parents of the Resident Evil saga is back with this new IP that will be made to beg until 2021, but from which we can already see his first gameplay. It will also be released on PS4, Xbox One and PC. According to Mikami himself, it is the most ambitious game he has ever faced.
Ghostwire: Tokyo
Hitman 3: Agent 47 Returns
Warner Bros. Interactive and IO-Interactive join forces again to publish the third installment of the Hitman saga, which will be released in January 2021. Hitman 3 will take us to Dubai and will be loaded with technological innovations. The game will follow in the wake of assassinations through stealth; a theme of suspense, action when you play and stealth when you lend. If all goes well, we’ll have it on PS5 in just a few months.
Hitman 3
New to Bluepoint Games is the remake of Demon’s Souls
We wanted the new from Bluepoint Games and here we have it. The parents of Shadow of the Colossus are developing, together with Sony Japan Studio, the remake of Demon’s Souls, Hidetaka Miyazaki’s work in 2009’s From Software that was released on PlayStation 3. The change is more than evident, never better said, and It will be released soon on PS5 with improvements not only visually but also at the controls.
Demon’s Souls Remake
Guerrilla Games presents the sequel to Horizon with Forbidden West
It was also ringing loudly and there was no surprise; no disappointment either. Horizon: Forbidden West is one of the names of the event. Guerrilla Games is working on the long-awaited new chapter of what is already a saga. A bigger and more varied game, with an Aloy that looks – even – more realistic than the original game from a few years ago. We’ve seen the first trailer, but we don’t know the release date for now.
Horizon: Forbidden West
Resident Evil 8 Village is official: Capcom wants scares
It seems that the PS5 event was hell-bent on fulfilling all the wishes of fans, also those of Resident Evil fans. Again, a word game with Resident Evil Village, which is still Resident Evil 8. Just by seeing the first trailer we have realized that the style will be very similar to that of the seventh installment. We can play it in 2021 both on PS5 and on other platforms, it is not exclusive to the Sony platform. We will soon know new details.
Resident Evil 8 Village
From Dishonored to Deathloop. Arkane has something to tell us
Arkane is twenty years old and doing it in a big way. Deathloop is a first person shooter where the main character is locked in a loop of death and destruction. Specifically, the game is being developed by Arkane Lyon and will be done exclusively temporarily on PlayStation 5 (also on PC). The objective is that we learn and adapt to the world that is presented to us. Of course, there will be puzzles, it is an Arkane game of the house brand. What do you think?
Deathloop
Pragmata, Capcom invites us to wait for you until 2022
Capcom has also announced Pragmata, a science fiction game that will be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and PC not before 2022. It is a strange title, very powerful visually, where a girl meets a space explorer in a planet Earth where practically nobody is left (if not nobody). For some reason, they end up on the moon. We are a little confused, but that arouses a lot of interest. Cinematic overtones, action and technical power.
Pragmata
Astro Bot is back without the need for PS VR
At FreeGameTips we have talked a lot about Astro Bot: Rescue Mission because it is one of the best PlayStation VR games. Now, Sony is committed to transferring the game, which was a boast of good work in the genre of 3D platforms, to PlayStation 5 taking advantage of the features of the controller: DualSense. Its name is Astro’s Playroom and it will come installed on the console.

Other games that have been seen with a trailer are Solar Ash, Little Devil Inside, Godfall, Bugsnax, Oddworld Soulstorm, JETT: The Far Shore, Goodbye Volcano High and Destruction AllStars.
And it was time for the console: this is PlayStation 5
We did not expect it, we have to admit it. PlayStation 5 was shown before us at the end of the event. The surprise comes perhaps not so much for the avant-garde design, but in the fact that there will be two models: one standard and the other digital, only digital, with no input for discs. Regardless of the model we buy, we will find a DualSense controller; an HD camera; Headband headphones with Pulse 3D to enjoy immersive 3D audio from home that Sony already anticipated at the time; and a remote control to use the console as a media center.
The price is still unknown, but the release date is known to everyone: Christmas 2020.
PS5 and the accessories that we will find in the box; regardless of the model. Prices not confirmed.
