Regular price: $69.99 / £69.99 / AU$124.95
Kratos' latest rage-fuelled adventure is here with the release of God of War Ragnarok. The sequel to 2018's massively successful God of War reboot, things pick up three years after the events of the previous game. Kratos and his son Atreus travel the lands seeking a way to halt Ragnarok - and prevent the end of the world. With cutting-edge graphics and full use of all major PS5 features, its a superb showcase of the hardware.
The Last of Us: Part 1
Regular price: $69.99 / £69.99 / AU$124.95
The Last Of Us: Part I is a full remake of the PS4 original for Sony's current generation console. As well as graphical improvements, developer Naughty Dog has included revised gameplay, imrpoved controls and a range of new accessibility options. There are also plenty of new features that make use of the console's 3D audio, adaptive triggers and haptic feedback.
Gran Turismo 7
Regular price: $59.99 / £59.99 / AU$124.95
The latest entry in Polyphony Digital's incredibly detailed and comprehensive racer is actually the 8th release, despite what its name might suggest. Series veterans will know what to expect here, with garages upon garages of meticulously realised cars and race tracks. There are a number of different game modes to dip into as well including the vast single player campaign GT Simulation Mode.
Elden Ring
Regular price: $59.99 / £59.99 / AU$124.95
From Software's spiritual successor to the Dark Souls series takes its tough-as-nails RPG formula to vast and extravagant new heights with a rich and detailed open world full of wonder and menace. Lots of talk surrounding the game has suggested it's the most accessible in the series yet, which is certainly true in some sense, but this is still a challenging and perilous game. The new land is fascinating to explore and absolutely gorgeous, but it can still quickly punish mistakes and risks alienating those not prepared to study and practise.
Horizon Forbidden West
Regular price: $69.99 / £69.99 / AU$124.95
Undoubtedly one of the PS5's biggest exclusives, Guerilla Games' follow up to its dino-mech action-adventure launched on February 18, 2022. This time around, Aloy heads to the titular new region of post-apocalyptic America, which is a much larger open-world environment than the one in the previous game. New features include refined melee combat, reworked climbing mechanics and much more interesting traversal options.
Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart
Regular price: $69.99 / £69.99 / AU$124.95
Ratchet and Clank have landed onto our consoles once again, this time being built for PS5 from the ground up. That means Rift Apart is one of the best showcases of the power of the current-generation console. While the humor doesn't quite hit like it used to, the duo's latest outing is certainly a marvel - from fast-paced action sequences to gorgeous settings to the arsenal of outrageous weaponry.
Resident Evil Village
Regular price: $59.99 / £54.99 / AU$99.95
Resident Evil Village is a Resident Evil 4-esque blend of action, survival horror, and creepy village life. The latest entry in the Resident Evil series received fantastic reviews and is well worth experience on PS5 if you're a fan of first-person horror. It's also a title that receives lots of fantastic discounts, making it a great budget pick right now.
Returnal
Regular price: $69.99 / £69.99 / AU$124.95
Returnal hit the shelves with a lofty price tag, but has dropped down in cost substantially since release. Our Returnal review celebrated the roguelike's genre bending, putting a third person shooter experience on the timeloop permadeath central mechanic. An unpredictable but excellent story nonetheless, those seeking out a challenge will be at home here.
Assassin's Creed: Valhalla
Regular price: $59.99 | £49.99 | AU$99.95
This sprawling Viking RPG is an absolutely massive game with a gigantic world and hours of content to keep you occupied.

If you're looking for a game filled with things to do for a bargain price, Assassin's Creed: Valhalla should be your pick.
Watch Dogs: Legion
Regular price: $59.99 | £59.99 | AU$99.95
An open-world futuristic adventure set in a dystopian vision of London, Watch Dogs: Legion is another PS5 title that packs loads of things to do at an affordable price. Although the native PS5 version often receives massive discounts, you can sometimes find even better deals on a PS4 copy. The PS4 version includes a free PS5 upgrade, so be sure to pick that one up instead if you find it at a lower price.
Hitman 3
Regular price: $69.99 | £59.99 | AU$124.95
Hitman 3 is the final installment in the assassin trilogy, featuring back with brand new maps, plenty of hilarious secrets, and all that classic stealth puzzle solving. Although it's certainly not likely to go quite as cheap as some of the other titles on this list, Hitman 3 is a superb time that you're likely to find at least some kind of discount on.
Demon's Souls
Regular price: $69.99 | £59.99 | AU$124.95
One of the biggest reasons to buy PS5 at launch, Demon's Souls is a blockbuster title that is only just beginning to see some big price cuts. You can generally find this game for about $20 / £20 off, which is a fantastic deal, but also be on the look out for some potential higher savings around major sales events like Black Friday or Amazon Prime Day.
Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales
Regular price: $49.99 | £49.99 | AU$94.95
A mid-size spinoff game, Marvel's Spider-Man Miles Morales was a launch hit for the PS5 system. It comes in $20 (£20) cheaper than a fully-fledged exclusive title, with a main campaign that clocks in at between 8-10 hours and plenty more side-quests and collectibles as well.
Sackboy: A Big Adventure
Regular price: $59.99 | £59.99 | AU$109.95
Little Big Planet is back - albeit with a new name and a whole new dimension. Sackboy: A Big Adventure isn't your traditional Little Big Planet game, dropping a few of the core franchise's gameplay mechanics in order to offer a new 3D platforming adventure. You'll also likely want to check out the latest DualSense PS5 controller deals for this one because the local multiplayer mode is well worth grabbing a spare gamepad for.
Godfall
Regular price: $69.99 | £69.99 | AU$124.95
Godfall was there from the very beginning as one of the first games announced for the PS5. While it wasn't a massive hit, it has taken some pretty substantial price cut since it launched so is a great budget choice. You can generally find the game hovering around the $20 / £20 mark, but it has dipped below $15 / £10 in the past so keep an eye out for a particularly compelling deal.
Dirt 5
Regular price: $59.99 | £54.99 | AU$114.95
Dirt 5 offers a free PS5 upgrade for those who have purchased the PS4 disk, so you should be keeping an eye on both versions of the game in order to find the best price possible. The arcade racer launched just ahead of the PS5 console in 2020 and is seeing plenty of discounts all these years later.
