Gamescom: 19 New PlayStation Games Revealed
Sony reveals 19 new PlayStation games at Gamescom, including a 2027 release date for a kung fu RPG and a new Control game.
The update
Gamescom’s Opening Night Live showcase revealed 19 new PlayStation games, spanning genres from management sims to open-world RPGs. The lineup includes a 2027 release window for Ananta, an urban open-world RPG set in a city inspired by Shanghai and Hangzhou, and a new Control Resonant trailer showing the continuation of Dylan Faden’s story.
Why it matters
This slate highlights Sony’s strategy to fill its release calendar through 2027 with a mix of licensed properties and original IP. The inclusion of a management game alongside major RPGs suggests a push to diversify beyond traditional action titles, while the continued support for the Control universe indicates a commitment to long-term narrative franchises.
What to watch
Monitor the release dates for Ananta and Acornia: Mirror Worlds, as well as the progress of the Exodus Official reveal. The fate of Control Resonant remains a key question as the series expands into new narrative territory.
