After the COVID-19 pandemic threw a monkey wrench in everyone's plans, the world is finally starting to normalize. This is not lost on Sony. As audiences look forward to fewer delays and more big AAA titles, Sony is more than happy to deliver a smorgasbord of first-party and third-party exclusives to supplement incoming third-party titles.
Here's a complete list of all the games Sony highlighted in an official PlayStation Blog post along with their release dates or windows as well as platforms:
- Assassin's Creed Mirage - 2023 (PS5 / Xbox Series S/X / PC)

- Pacific Drive - 2023 (PS5 / PC)

- Eternights - 2023 (PS5 / PS4 / PC)

- Street Fighter 6 - June 1 (PS5 / Xbox Series S/X / PC)
- Final Fantasy XVI - June 22 (PS5)
- Marvel's Spider-Man 2 - Fall 2023 (PS5)
In addition to the games that Sony just listed, this year will also see the release of several other third-party titles as well like Atomic Heart, Diablo 4, Like a Dragon: Ishin! and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty.
Unfortunately, Sony's list is bad news for Final Fantasy fans. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth was confirmed for Winter 2023 last year and it looks like the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive will be out earlier next year and not for the holiday season.
If you think about it, it makes sense. Marvel's Spider-Man 2 will likely take Sony's usual slot October/November slot later this year while the next Final Fantasy 7 game in the presumed trilogy will be available to play around February next year.
In any case, PlayStation fans won't be left wanting more. Keep in mind that the Silent Hill 2 remake is also a PS5 exclusive and it's entered the final stages of development. It might be ready later this year. Finally, don't forget, we're still waiting for word on the long-rumored Metal Gear Solid remake.
