If we want to talk about PlayStation during 2023, we'll need a long time. Sony has a library of games, exclusive titles, and a wealth of TV programming coming to its platforms over the next year, both first-party and third-party.
Although Sony did not present any major events during the year 2022, it assured that the gaming community was kept informed about the release schedule that will take place during the new year, which will carry a lot of diversity between first-party and independent games, and even platforms.
Forspoken game opens the new year
On January 24th, we will have the first exclusive PlayStation 5 title for the new year 2023, which is an RPG game with touches of classic Final Fantasy game styles mixed with action and movement in a fictional world.
The game, which received positive reviews through its community demo experience, is developed by Luminas Studio, a subsidiary of Square Enix. It's the same team that worked on the Final Fantasy series in the past, but the experience will be a little different than usual.
Throughout his life, Frey will fight enemies called Breakbeasts in the world of Athia. The studio explains that the player can utilize Frey's magical parkour and rapid-fire fighting abilities. Players can use a combination of different types of magic, as well as combine parkour moves, to help defeat these monsters.
Final Fantasy 16 on PlayStation 5 in 2023
Another exclusive from Japan's strongest ally, Square Enix, on PlayStation 5, Final Fantasy 16 was recently given a release date of June 22, 2023.
In addition to the changes in gameplay, which has become more focused on action and fast-paced movement, as it has been compared to the Devil May Cry games, the game will be a new visual masterpiece that showcases the power of Sony's new device, or so he said. Naoki Yoshida The game producer when the last game preview appears.
The game's new orientation will be a strong factor in expanding its fan base, especially among fans of fast-paced action and fighting games.
Add to that Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
Yes, Final Fantasy 7 Remake will have a second sequel exclusively on PlayStation platforms in 2023. The game will complete the story of Cloud and his friends in Midgar and perhaps beyond.
The game will be based on the original story released in 1997, but this time with visual improvements, radical changes to the game system and the power of next-generation graphics and effects.
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is expected to launch exclusively on PlayStation 5 during Winter 2023, and we're hoping to get a release date later in the new year.
Spider-Man is back with his friend in a new adventure
Spider-Man 2, the second sequel in the wonderful series, will be coming to us exclusively on PlayStation 5 in the fourth quarter of the new year 2023.
We don't want to talk too much about the game we're looking forward to in its new return, especially since we'll be witnessing Peter Parker and Miles Morales together on an adventure, but the most important thing is the adversary that will appear for the first time in the series, Venom.
There are expectations that more enemies will appear in the game, whether they are returning characters from the series or new characters, and we are very excited to see more of the game when it is reviewed further sometime this year in 2023.
Silent Terror with Silent Hill 2 Remake
The most anticipated horror game, Silent Hill 2 Remake will be among the exclusive titles to be released on PlayStation 5 in 2023.
The game will feature numerous visual improvements and gameplay modifications to accommodate the capabilities of the new generation. However, the development team at Blooper Team Studio has confirmed that it will remain fully committed to the events of the original story, but will be presented in a new way that adapts to both old and new players.
Silent Hill 2 Remake has not yet received a release date, but its presence has been in development since 2019, and its release at this point in 2022 could be a clear indication that the game will be ready for release in 2023.
Kojima is back with Death Stranding 2
Despite mixed reviews and opinions about the first installment, veteran developer Hideo Kojima returns to boldly announce the second installment of his mysterious game, Death Stranding.
The game will continue the story of Sam Bridges, which began with the first part, but from the teaser we recently received, it seems that we are in for a meeting with many surprises and shocking situations that will surprise us with the new part.
The game has not yet received a release date, but it is expected to be released in late 2023, or it may be delayed to 2024, according to the expectations of some media professionals.
Korean game Stellar Blade looks great
One of the games that caught our attention the most when it was revealed at the beginning of last year, 2022. The game is developed by a Korean studio, and its idea is based on a fast-paced combat system with swords and firearms in the style of acrobatics or somersaults, movements, as is the case in the game Bayonetta.
Stella Blade hasn't gotten a specific release date, but it's slated for release sometime in 2023 on PlayStation devices, and Sony may give us an update on the timeframe later this year.
Online play in the world of The Last of Us
A new, large-scale online game set in the world of The Last of Us has been announced. Developer Naughty Dog Studio described this game as having a massive budget comparable to the studio's previous major titles, so we're expecting to get our hands on a major title this year.
Unfortunately, Sony hasn't shared any details about the new game with us, not even its official name, or whether it will complement the previous online phase, Faction, or be a standalone experience. But we expect to get plenty of details this year and possibly a release date soon.
