19 best PS4 games – PlayStation 4 games you must play

The PlayStation 4 has been available for eight years now, and in that time it has accrued one of the greatest game libraries of any console. From Sony’s own first-party classics to dozens of essential third-party titles, the PS4 has games for every kind of gamer.
Whether you want an intense action-heavy experience or something a bit slower and more somber with a strong story, you can find something you’ll love in the list below. We have 19 of the best PS4 games you can play. If you’re getting a PlayStation for the first time, or you’re trying to catch up on what you might’ve missed, this list is for you.
FromSoftware might be one of the most influential developers of the PS4 generation, and Bloodborne is seen by many as the magnum opus, the pinnacle of Miyazaki’s own brutal vision of action RPGs. Dropping the defensive mechanics that can make Dark Souls a passive game, Bloodborne forces you to dodge and attack with speed, risking it all for those precious moments where you can take the upper hand. One for the masochists that seek serotonin through struggle.
Persona 5 is one of the most stylish and engaging JRPGs ever made, and Persona 5 Royal just beefs that experience up with even more content. More characters, more dialogue, more quests, more activities, and more overall time to fit them into. If this is your first time playing a Persona game, then this will drag you in, unlike anything you’ve played before. If you’ve already gone through Persona 5, then a lot of this 90-hour adventure will feel familiar.
Currently one of the most popular MMOs in the world, Final Fantasy XIV just launched its Endwalker expansion, which has been praised by fans of the game. PS4 is the only console you can play Final Fantasy XIV on, and it is completely up to date with the latest patches and content. If you’ve had bad experiences with console MMOs in the past, Final Fantasy XIV just might change your mind. You may have also heard that there’s a meaty free trial available? Something to consider once the game allows new account registrations again.
Red Dead Redemption 2 might be the very best Rockstar title (it’s definitely the best cowboy game), and that fact makes it one of the greatest story-driven games ever made by default. With an utterly stunning world and engaging story, it manages to evolve past the open-world chaos of early GTA games and feels entirely fresh. An essential regardless of where you play it.
(Sony Interactive Entertainment)
Sony’s first-party releases throughout the PS4 generation have a certain flavor to them – a lot of third-person action with a bit of shooting – but none of them feel as refined as The Last of Us Part II does. The sequel to what was considered the PS3’s greatest game, The Last of Us Part II is bigger and better in almost every way. A more intricate story told from multiple perspectives, a detailed and believable world, and an incredibly satisfying, varied combat system that will see you approaching each encounter differently. The quintessential Naughty Dog game, and one of the PS4’s very best.
The Last of Us Part II might be the pinnacle of Naughty Dog’s games, but that does not mean you should overlook Uncharted 4. Nathan Drake’s adventures are far more lighthearted than The Last of Us, which makes for a nice change of pace, and that’s mirrored in the gameplay, as you’ll feel like Indiana Jones as you swing around while gunning down hostile enemies. This feels like a summer blockbuster, in comparison to Ellie and Joel’s haunting indie cinema outings.
The PS2 classic Shadow of the Colossus remains one of that console’s very best games and is often mentioned whenever the “games as art” discourse rears its head. It really is that good. The world is vast but empty and somber. Each victory comes tinged with a feeling of sadness, and while the goal is achieved at the end, it comes at a hefty cost. The graphics of this remake are some of the best of any game on PS4 and make the world come to life more than ever before. Utterly essential to play once.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is the game that put CD Projekt RED on the map, and regardless of what trials and tribulations the studio has gone through since, it doesn’t change the fact that The Witcher 3 is a modern classic, and one of the best Western RPGs ever made. A huge world, countless quests, and a gripping story that quickly gets tied into political intrigue. You don’t need any knowledge of the first two games to jump in, and with Netflix’s The Witcher series on its second season, there has never been a better time to play.
Kratos and Atreus’ journey through a brand new realm completely changed what fans expected from God of War. The classic games are brutal, gory, and action-packed. This one is still all of those things in the right moments, but feels distinctly more mature, handling each moment with a delicacy and nuance that the original trilogy just never had. Kratos still smashes heads, make no mistake, but when he does so it feels like it has more of a sense of purpose and intent, which is reflected in the more methodical combat. It’s not the most historically accurate game based on the Norse, but it’s definitely the best.
Monster Hunter: World finally opened up the game series that has been a cult favorite for years. The areas are bigger, each engagement is easier to approach, you can call for help any time you feel overwhelmed, and the fights are more thrilling than ever. Monsters will tear through stages and crash through rocks and trees you’re using as cover – this game still has a fairly high barrier to entry and asks a lot of new players, but if any game is going to make you a Monster Hunter die-hard, it’s World, one of the best co-op games around.
Journey is unlike most of the games on this list. Instead of focusing on intense action and shooting, Journey takes you on a, um, journey. The story is told without any dialogue, just hints and cues you can pick up on along the way – the quintessential indie game. First, you make your way through a glistening desert, before climbing a perilous mountain. If you’re lucky you just might make a friend along the way. While Journey isn’t the longest game, it’s certainly one you won’t forget. Perfect for anyone looking to take things more slowly.
The Resident Evil series is iconic, and often seen as the definitive horror game series, making its mark across movies, games, and animation. When it comes to recent entries, Resident Evil 2 might be the very best. A remake of the series’ most celebrated game, Resident Evil 2 brings Raccoon City to life in its dying days. The Police Station might be one of the best video game locations this generation.
Horizon Forbidden West is coming very soon, so now is the perfect time to catch up on Horizon Zero Dawn. Aloy’s mission across a post-apocalyptic world with robot dinosaurs is unique and exciting, with environments and enemies that set it apart from most other open-world adventures. Whether you’re shooting apart the vitals of mechanical beasts or slapping them with a weapon, Horizon Zero Dawn remains great from start to finish – and even has a 60fps patch available for anyone playing on a PS5.
This has divided fans of the original Final Fantasy VII more than the Advent Children movie ever did, and that’s really saying something. Love or loathe the concept of it, Final Fantasy VII Remake is gorgeous on PS4, and has a fantastic action battle system that changes with each character you take control of. While this only covers a fraction of Final Fantasy VII‘s plot, Remake moves things in an entirely new direction that should make fans very excited to see what’s in store for the future of this new story.
Spider-Man is one of the most beloved Marvel superheroes, so it’s a relief to say that his open-world action game is a great one. Swinging through the city streets as Peter Parker feels as good as you hoped it would, and that is only beaten by the combat, which sees Spidey swinging around lampposts while lamping enemies around the jaw. It’s chaotic fun, and essential for any fans of the webslinger.
If you want a traditional 2D fighting game experience, then look no further than Street Fighter V. Maligned at launch for a bunch of reasons, professional players say SFV is much better now. With several seasons that added a variety of new characters, stages, music, story scenes, cosmetics, modes, and much more, Street Fighter V is now one of the very best fighting games you can play.
It’s a bit late to get involved in the competitive scene with Capcom Pro Tour winding down, but learning to play a game like Street Fighter is a great experience, and SFV is one of the best places to play. Jump in now to get a head start on everyone looking forward to Street Fighter 6.
Realistic racing simulators are all well and good, but it’s easy to miss the classic days of super-fast absurd racers. Wipeout is a fan favorite, and luckily the best Wipeout game was brought to PS4 with Wipeout Omega Collection. This “collection” is actually an all-new game, while also bringing together courses and vehicles from Wipeout HD, Wipeout Fury, and Wipeout 2048.
The physics have been changed and the speed has been altered, but this manages to feel like an authentic Wipeout experience and isn’t something you should miss if you’ve ever been a fan of fast arcade racers like Hydro Thunder and F-Zero. Plus, PlayStation VR headset owners can play the game in virtual reality, driving the speedy cars around the tracks in the first person.
Dreams isn’t technically a game, instead, it’s a game creation tool. In Dreams you can create all manner of experiences. A short minigame with you voice acting? Totally possible. A Sonic the Hedgehog fan game? Absolutely. A photorealistic English breakfast? Absurdly, yes.
If you’re a creative or you want to introduce a younger gamer to game development, Dreams is an excellent place to start, with a stunning amount of variability. Even if you’re not too creative, you can just browse and enjoy other people’s creations, some of which are simple concept demos or showcases, while others are detailed and engrossing game experiences, all made with the same tools you have at your disposal.
This is still one of the very best horror narrative games you can play on any console. Until Dawn boasts impressive graphics, a great cast of actors, and an interesting story filled with campy 80s horror movie tropes, all packed in a game that follows the entire cast as they explore the mysterious Blackwood Mountain.
This tale involves cursed creatures, revenge, horny young adults, action, and you can absolutely sacrifice much of the cast, if you choose the right options. Though, the best ending can only be obtained by saving every single member of your party. That might take a few attempts.

What to Consider
Everyone has different tastes when it comes to games. Because games are such a subjective form of entertainment, it’s important to know what kinds of games you (or the person you are shopping for) are interested in before scrolling through the best-sellers. If you love titles like Elden Ring and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for example, you’ll probably enjoy other big action-adventure games.
If you are shopping for a child, there are a lot of extra considerations to make. Be sure to look at the ESRB rating for a game—it can tell you at a glance what kinds of content are present in any video game. Be particularly aware of kids’ games with online features and in-game real-money transactions.
How We Selected
All our selections come from a mix of personal experience, critical reviews, and audience scores across a wide variety of sites and online storefronts. We highlighted a diverse set of games spanning genres, age-ranges, difficulty levels, and tones. Lastly, we chose not to include sports titles that are released every year, like FIFA and Madden.

Topster. Edition
One of the leading developers of game consoles — Sony, released in 2011-2013 set-top boxes related to the eighth generation of gaming systems: home console PlayStation 4 and portable — PlayStation Vita. Their technical characteristics are close to personal computers. nine0003
Sony immediately stated that there would be no restrictions on the use and distribution of purchased games, as well as the mandatory need to connect to the network. Games for this console are available for purchase both on Blu-ray Disc and through Sony’s digital service, the PlayStation Store.
Thanks to our TOP you will learn about the 10 best games on the PlayStation 4.
This is the third RPG based on Andrzej Sapkowski’s novels about the Witcher Geralt of Rivia. Wild Hunt (2015) took this cycle from Polish developers CD Project RED to a new level. «Wild Hunt» compares favorably with the naturalism of events: the fights in it are cruel to the point of blood, and the characters are not shackled by moral standards, more suitable for our time, and not for the hard fantasy of the postmodern era. There is no good and evil in the usual sense, but there is a choice that the hero has to make. nine0003
The traps waiting for Geralt are sophisticated and force them to be fully involved in the process. Here you can not just click the joystick. The developers tried to add scale, significance and logical complexity to what is happening. At the same time, the player does not have to be familiar with the world of the book: immediately, in a local tavern, it becomes clear what is happening in this universe, with its political intricacies. The graphics and soundtrack are impressive: the wind shakes the trees, and the blade whistles. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is a modern, next-generation RPG classic. nine0003

An action game also known as GTA 5. There are 15 games in total in the series, but in the fifth version, a significant difference is 3 main characters, between which you can freely switch. At the same time, there is a choice of what role to play: live robberies, thefts and robbery, or behave like an ordinary resident of the city. In any case, the game allows you to move around the entire city space, including the surrounding area. Each character has superpowers, whether it’s slowing down time while driving a car and in a fight, or simply destructive power. nine0003
The game takes place in a fictional Los Santos, where 2 friends — Trevor and Michael, meet after separation and remember their gangster past. Now two lawbreakers have a new goal — the robbery of the US Federal Vault. In pursuit of $ 200,000,000, friends will go through many exciting adventures. The game is available in multi-user mode. Unlike other series of this game universe, GTA 5 has 3 alternative endings.

The plot of the game, which is a continuation of the 1st part of the same name, takes place in the Wild West. At the same time, part 2 is a kind of prequel that tells about a character named John Marston. The RDR2 universe is deep and seriously developed, the slightest action of the player changes the plot either immediately, or affects events indirectly. Anything that seems small at first can have serious consequences. So, a quarrel in a bar develops first into a brawl, and then, if there was a murder, into a bloody vendetta. nine0003
As in GTA5, the developer of RDR2 is the American company Rockstar Games. Both games have a lot of dynamics and an expanded world with adventures, fights, chases and gunfights. In Red Dead Redemption 2, all this is served in the entourage of the Wild West, worked out to the smallest detail, with its spirit of a daring western.

A Thief’s End was created exclusively for PlayStation 4 in 2016. A distinctive feature of the games in the Uncharted universe is that each of them is a full-fledged adventure film, with a multi-variant plot and complex character development. The player must correctly respond to the ever-changing situation — the perfect graphics perfectly take into account the peculiarities of the physics of the real world, and jumping from a sinking ship is accompanied by all possible difficulties. nine0003
In search of treasure, the protagonist Nate Drake, his wife Helena Fisher, friend Sally and younger brother Sam Drake, who was presumed dead, embark on a dangerous journey through Latin America and Asia. On uncharted lands, the company is waiting for many dangers, clashes with the main antagonist — Rafe Adler and his team, as well as exciting discoveries. The plot of the game can compete in complexity with many adventure novels. All this, coupled with the psychologism of the relationship between the main characters, makes The Way of a Thief a truly epoch-making game. nine0003
This version was created in 2014 specifically for game consoles, in particular for the PlayStation 4. This is its difference from the basic Diablo III, created for PC. On the technical side, the gameplay is close to perfection, the user does not even have the thought that the universe was originally developed for computers. The picture without hitches produces 60 frames per second.
The action game immerses the user in a dark fantasy world in which he will have to deal with the consequences of the previous parts of the game saga. So, after a bloody confrontation, the good lost the Stone of the World, but the forces of Evil were beheaded. nine0003
This does not prevent his younger followers from again advancing on Sanctuary — a fictional world in which the main events take place, guarded by nephalem — people born from the union of angels and demons. The game can be played both alone and in the company of Nephalems. The plot consists of 5 acts and consists in a war with the soldiers of the Underworld, as well as in collecting the necessary artifacts.
The Enhanced Edition is a re-release of Divinity: Original Sin, the classic RPG game. The new version, released in 2014, made the gaming universe available not only for computers, but also for consoles. nine0003
The world of Divinity: Original Sin has also become richer and more perfect: the developers have brought voice acting, visual and spatial capabilities to a new level, improved gameplay and added new quests and features for the character. Now there are 4 difficulty levels in the game, from simple exploration of locations and extraction of artifacts to a quest of increased difficulty.
There are two heroes in the Enhanced Edition, and although both single and multiplayer modes are available, the entire storyline between the player and the remaining hero will be highly interactive. At the same time, views on solving problems may not coincide fundamentally, and then drawing lots comes to the rescue. Both characters in the game are Source Hunters. They have to rid the world of the Keepers of the Source, the followers of the dark teachings, who use the dangerous magic of the Source. The plot of the game is complex and goes back to Egyptian mythology. nine0003
Released in Japan in 2015, this PlayStation 4 exclusive tells the story of the mysterious and confusing events that unfold in the fictional city of Yharnam. The images of the universe refer to the creepy worlds of Lovecraft. So, the hero needs to save the city from the epidemic and defeat the monsters generated by it, otherwise Yharnam will plunge into eternal night. The game world is surprisingly complex and detailed. The plot throws the player all new themes and mysteries that can be explored endlessly.
The game received rave reviews from critics, noting the special atmosphere of the universe. A long road of self-improvement unfolds before the hero, where experience is gained through trial and error, allowing him to go further. At the same time, «Bloodborne» immediately throws the player into the jaws of danger, teaching him to instantly navigate the fictional terrain. The battles in the game are fast-paced and resemble deadly dances with weapons. nine0003
This game, like «Bloodborne», was developed by the Japanese «FromSoftware» as part of their Souls-series, which today is distinguished as a separate subgenre among action / RPG. At the same time, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is not a parasitism on legendary traditions, but a new milestone for the gaming world.
An interesting difference between the game and the others is that the events in it take place not in a fantasy world, but in medieval Japan, the “Age of the Warring States”. The plot of the game is gloomy and oppressive, the main character Sekiro will have to protect the heir of the Ashino clan in a feudal war. You should not expect a historical digression from the game, all the characters and events, except for the main message, are fictional in it. Gradually the world becomes more and more gloomy, the tests are more and more sophisticated. At the same time, the developers did a great job on the logic of the story, all the motives are clear, including the antagonists. nine0003
The battles in the game are distinguished by samurai aesthetics, a great place is given to tactics and the ability to provoke the enemy, to bring him out of a dead defense. The rise of the character is due to self-improvement, and if at the beginning it is very difficult to defeat enemies, at the end the game systematically brings the player to invulnerability.
The Last of Us special edition for PlayStation 4 is called Remastered and is an improved version of it. At the same time, the original version in 2013 was also developed by order of Sony specifically for the PlayStation 3.
This is an adventure role-playing game with elements of survival horror, where the world is attacked by a sentient fungus that takes over the victim’s body, first turns it into a bloodthirsty monster, and then kills it. Destruction and death reign in the apocalyptic world: people kill each other, rob and repair chaos.
The smuggler Joel, whose family has died, and the 14-year-old girl Ellie, whom Joel must deliver to safety, will have to cope with this horror. The characters actively interact and, of course, make each other better. The player will have to control mainly Joel, from time to time switching to Ellie if necessary. nine0003

The action of another game from the Metal Gear series takes place in 1987, when the main character wakes up after 9 years in the hospital of the British military base in Cyprus. The hero should climb on a horse, after which he opens up incredible expanses of the open world. The possibilities of the player are endless, and it can be confusing at first, because you have to keep a lot in your head. However, soon the plot intricacies and gameplay begin to line up in a coherent logical chain. nine0003
One of the objectives of the game is the smooth operation of a private military company, which requires a reasonable tactical approach from the player.
