Yeah, with 2nd and 3rd party games PS is doing just fine in terms of releases this year. But 1st party-wise, it's still a dry and barren year.

They did it to themselves with poor release planning, if you look at their 1st party quite alot of them released games from 2020 launch window-2022. That put them in a position of having a largely barren 2023 and 2024. Their release schedule should start to pick up somewhat in 2025 and then be very strong in 2026. These are their 1st party studios that could possibly have a game ready for release some time in 2024-2026:

  • Bend Studio- Worked on a Uncharted game with Naughty Dog through mid 2021, but then Bend asked to be removed from it and is working on a new IP open world game since June 2021. 2026 release with 5 years of development seems possible for a new IP
  • Bluepoint Games- Released Demon Soul's remake in 2020, currently working on their 1st ever original IP ever since. Could release in 2025 or 2026 with 5-6 years of development.
  • Bungie- Marathon should release by 2025. They are also working on a Destiny-like MMO-lite codenamed Matter, which some documents from the FTC vs Microsoft court case revealed could be released in 2025, though it could also come later. Both will be multiplatform though due to Bungie negotiating for multiplat releases during acquisition talks.
  • Firewalk- Currently working on Concord, the multiplayer game announced on the PS Summer show last year
  • Guerilla Games- Unlikely they will have another big singleplayer game soon, but we know they are working on a Horizon multiplayer game which could release by 2026
  • Haven- Announced Fairgame$ at the PS Summer show last year
  • Insomniac Games- Based on their leaked roadmap, they will release Wolverine in Fall 2026
  • Sony London Studio- Working on a co-op MP game since Erica released in 2019
  • San Diego Studio- Yearly MLB
  • Santa Monica Studio- It's rumored they have had a 2nd team working on a new IP since 2018 in pre-production with full development starting in 2021. Believed to be a sci-fi game, possibly a revival of the sci-fi game that SSM developed from 2011-2014 before it was cancelled in favor going all-in on GoW 2018. Could release in 2026 with 5 years of active development possinbly
  • Sucker Punch- Tsushima released June 2020, I don't see why they won't have their next game out in 2025 or 2026
  • Team Asobi- Likely working on a new Astro game since the one that PS5 launched with in 2020

Matter was supposedly cancelled in December 2020.
