Stop Scrolling the Store: The PS5 Games Actually Worth Your Money

Quick answer: football fans → EA SPORTS FC. Story lovers → Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, God of War Ragnarök, Ghost of Yōtei. Challenge seekers → Elden Ring. Pure joy → Astro Bot. Racing → Gran Turismo 7.

Buying a PS5 game is a commitment — a new disc isn’t cheap, and nothing hurts like a game you drop after two hours. So instead of a random top-10, here’s what to buy based on how you play.

If you play with friends every weekend

• EA SPORTS FC — the default game of every Egyptian gaming night. Career mode, Ultimate Team and endless “one more match.”
• It Takes Two / Split Fiction — co-op adventures built for two. See our couch co-op list.

If you want a story you’ll never forget

• Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 — swinging through New York never gets old.
• God of War Ragnarök — father, son and some of the best boss fights on the console.
• Ghost of Yōtei — a beautiful open-world samurai journey.

If you love a challenge

• Elden Ring — huge, punishing, unforgettable.
• Resident Evil 4 — tense survival horror, perfectly paced.

If you just want to smile

Astro Bot shows off every trick of the DualSense controller. Great for kids and adults alike.

Disc or digital?
