Sony and PlayStation announced a slew of brand new games and content on Sept. 9, ready for players to enjoy in 2022 and 2023. Sony and PlayStation will prepare these new titles for the newer consoles, such as the popular PlayStation 5, the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 4 Pro. From sequels to spinoff games, here’s what Sony announced:
Marvel’s hit video game “Spider-Man” and “Spider-Man: Miles Morales” is getting an all-new sequel in 2023 titled “Spider-Man 2.” The game will star Yuri Lowenthal and Nadji Jeter as Peter and Miles, respectively. Tony Todd from “Candyman” will join them as Venom.
Peter and Miles will have their hands full as they take on both the symbiotic Venom and the dangerous Kraven the Hunter, who comes to New York to battle the Spider-Men.
Fresh off the epic success of the Spider-Man games, Insomniac Games announced a brand new video game starring the infamous X-Man Wolverine. Although there is no official release date yet, fans can expect more details to be announced in the coming year.
Sony Interactive Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games revealed they are going to remake the infamous RPG “Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.” The original game came out in 2003 and featured Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi in the heart of the Clone Wars. Fans were eager to see the game get a remake for the PS5, and Lucasfilm Games will release more information later this year and next.
In 2018, Sony developed the next chapter of the “God of War” saga starring Kratos and his adoptive son Atreus as they explored the Norse wilderness. After a mysterious teaser back in 2020, Sony announced a brand new “God of War” game subtitled “Ragnarök.”
The game sees Atreus and Kratos survive Fimbulwinter and the upcoming Ragnarök. The two will have to face their former ally Freya and the God of Thunder, Thor, as they seek answers about the upcoming end of the world from the formerly deceased Norse God of War Týr and more about Atreus’s past as Loki. “God of War: Ragnarök” will be released in 2022.
Gearbox Software announced a brand new game called “Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands,” releasing on March 25, 2022. Players will be able to create their character as they explore a fantastical wonderland filled with whimsical creatures, wondrous sights and awesome weapons as they go on quests to find a way to beat the tyrannical Dragon Lord in this “Borderlands” spin-off.
“Grand Theft Auto V” and “Grand Theft Auto Online” will be expanded and enhanced since its release in 2013 and will now be featured on PS5. The game was originally supposed to be released in November, but it will now be released in March 2022. Los Santos will be improved and changed as the classic makes its way onto the PS5 in just a few months. “Grand Theft Auto Online” will also be released for the PS5 and will be free for all players.
“Gran Turismo 7” will launch in March 2022 as well. The game will feature a large world to explore, races to take part in and a wide range of cars that can be customized and unlocked.
“Project Eve” will be released sometime in the next two years as well, with players controlling the mysterious Eve. She must combat the alien NA:tives to win back the Earth with the help of new comrades.
“Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End” and “Uncharted: The Lost Legacy” will be collected and remastered in early 2022. Fans of both of these games will now have access to them on the PS5 console and the PC.
Overall, the next set of games from Sony look to be some of the most intriguing ones yet. More details will be announced later this year and the next, as fans get ready to see some more of their favorite characters and new heroes come to light.
