We all enjoy playing a good game, don’t we? Sometimes though some manage to slip under the radar and on the rare occassion you may be surprised a game has already released due to little fanfare. Now Sony has put together a list of games it expects to release on PlayStation consoles this year. There’s a mix of confirmed games, exclusives, multi-platform titles, indies, AAA, and everything in between.
The list I’m going to put below is specific to the UK and Europe. For the North American version click on this handy link.Â

The lists are subject to change though, with Sony planning to keep it updated regularly as games get announced, delayed, released, or cancelled.

I would like to sum this list up with a simple “shit in hell!”. :-)
*sells kidney*
DeadlyChipmunk
Would have been nice to have seen a World Rally there and where’s F1 2015 hiding?
Wish list as well, Thunderhawk. Never gonna happen but I loved that game.
Avenger
In all honesty the Vita list is a bit shite, not with the games that are there, but the games that aren’t. The blog post showed a video which sums it up for Vita, and it isn’t attractive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpbyyLCsq90
Aside from that, it’s a healthy list with a refreshing variety, even if I won’t play half of it for lack of an indie taste.
Starman
Why couldn’t they have slipped Warhawk 2 in there?!
mclarenrob2
Star hawk?
Starman
That was an abomination I try to forget.
Pixel_nme
Yeah Starhawk was no Warhawk that’s for sure,would love a new Warhawk in the same style as the original with similar vehicle types and original hawks not those mech types,Even a re-release updated version of the original would do me.
Foxhound_Solid
Gonna be an expensive year :-)
JustTaylorNow
And how many are pixelated. I’m sick of these pixelated mexicre crap that belongs in the 90s
Pitcher-T
Completely agree. Yes I understand that retro is quite popular currently, however they belong on a mobile or hand held console.
I did not pay for a shiny new console to play 8bit games on it. I understand there are some good pixel games out there but they’re few and far between the generic stuff.
Starman

I wouldn’t mind if these retro games at least looked like some effort had gone into the graphics like Child of Light & Valiant Hearts. The trend of making things look crap deliberately is lazy & cheap.
frostface
Thank you,I thought I was the only one sick of them. They obviously must sell if they keep showing up and maybe some of them are good but they’re not for me.
double-o-dave
+1. I’m in!
double-o-dave
In fact I was playing better games in the 80’s, let alone the 90s! ;)
beeje13
Wow guys, come on, have you ever heard of art style? And some of these games are made by just 1 or 2 people, so you can’t expect them to have photorealistic textures.
Look at #IDARB from ID@XBOX, thats got an 8bit ‘pixelated’ style but looks and plays great.
If you don’t like them then fine, in fact I’m not a huge fan myself, but I don’t think harsh criticism is the right thing here. It’s not like these games are replacements for triple A titles with cutting edge graphics.
double-o-dave
Sometimes its not just the pixelated style – (This is NOT aimed at all Indie games) Some of the games are just a bloody joke and a complete waste of a powerful console.
Basically… If I had an expensive crystal whisky decanter and someone filled it up with a can of Lilt I’d punch them in face! ;)
frostface
Unless I’m blind or I’m losing my marbles but was the PS4 not meant to get an Everybody Golf game? I’d settle for a port of any one of them.
DeadlyChipmunk
+1
That was a surprising gem on my PS3 =)
uncharted86
Games without a confirmed release window are not on the list. They could be 2015 or they could be later.
Another example is Rime.
Tuffcub
Well hello, Shadow of the Beast makes an appearance at last!
freezebug2
Formula One discontinued?
No mention of Gran Turismo PS4….just call it that don’t even think 7 :P
Just Cause and R&C are high up on the radar ;)
Everybody’s golf needs a release on current platforms!
Avenger
I think if GT7 was on the list, there’d be a firm announcement along with it. Knowing PD, the release might be a bit unpredictable.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the F1 games are discontinued. For some reason I can’t see F1 2015 game ever happening, perhaps because there’s naught to next news on the game and the development window is really rather small.
Pixel_nme
Indeed Everybody’s golf needs to come to PS4.
Amphlett
I’m really looking forward to the day when we can see Elite Dangerous on this list.
