Sony PS5 & Xbox Series X

 

After seven years, Sony and Microsoft finally announced a new generation of gaming consoles. Several weeks before the official announcement, there were reports on the hardware and performance of these consoles. However, there is more to gaming consoles than just hardware. Obviously, people will want to know what they can play on these consoles on launch day. We do not expect the best from these consoles on launch day. This is because the developers will need some time to take full advantage of the new hardware. Both the Sony PS5 and Xbox Series X will launch some days apart and the competition is fierce.

For those who may have been wondering what they can play on launch day and beyond, there is good news. The Verge has compiled a comprehensive list of the games to expect from the Sony PS5 and Xbox Series X. The list also contains information on the compatibility of these games. That is their compatibility status with a PC as well as other platforms.

For games not arriving on launch day, you also get to see their launch date. Please note that in terms of exclusive rights, the list looks at a comparison between Sony PS5 and Xbox Series X. This means that the list may say a game is available for “Xbox Only” even though it is available on Nintendo Switch.


Without taking much of your time, enjoy yourself with the exhaustive list below
