These are the best PS5 games that you can play by yourself.
There are games for everyone in the PS5 library. There’s a game for you if you want to shoot things with your friends. You can explore a big world with a friend while sitting on your couch. But if you just want to sit down and tell yourself a great story, you don’t need to look any further.
On the PS5, you can find some of the best single-player games ever made. Some are scary games, some are open-world adventures, and some are even puzzle-based platformers. No matter what kind of single-player journey you want to take, you can do it.
Stray
Stray is a game where you play as a cat in a city of the future. Even though the people who live there are droids, that doesn’t mean there aren’t other dangerous things around. To figure out an old mystery, you’ll have to answer puzzles and find the right paths.
Even though Stray has a serious tone, don’t forget that you’re a cat first. You can do what a cat would do with the world around you. You can play with balls of yarn, take a nap, or crawl through small areas. It’s a great game for people who like cats and want to play at their own pace.
Returnal
Returnal is a great single-player game if you like survival games with a bit of fear. The player character, Selene, has crashed on a strange planet, so the story goes. Then, like in the movie Groundhog Day, she has to start over every time she dies.
Every time you go through Returnal, the world and the equipment you can use change. You need to adjust to these changes quickly or you’ll end up back where you started. No matter how you choose to play, make sure you get upgrades and ammunition. Bullets are the best way to stop the aliens.
Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade
Final Fantasy 7 is one of the most-played games of all time, which is not a secret. And they deserve it. Final Fantasy 7 was the best game in the series, and it has passed the test of time. The FF7 Remake Intergrade version just made it that much better.
This remake adds more to the popular game and is the first in a long series of games that rework Final Fantasy 7. Intergrade goes through the game until the part where you escape from Midgar. It also has a different story in which you play as Yuffie and have to sneak into the Shinra Building.
Ratchet And Clank: Rift Apart
Ratchet and Clank is a game that always comes with a PlayStation. In Rift Apart, you can play as the pair again on the PS5. This time, the two of them have to stop an evil robot ruler from taking over not only their world but also many other worlds in different dimensions.
This is a game about exploring the universe, which gives the Ratchet and Clank series a lot of new options. You’ll meet Rivet, a Lombax resistance fighter from somewhere else, and get to see different versions of places you’ve come to know and love from Ratchet and Clank’s many adventures.
Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales
In the Marvel’s Spider-Man sequel, you play as Miles Morales about a year after he got spider-like powers. It is winter, and there is snow all over New York. The city is getting ready for the Christmas vacation. The city that never sleeps is, of course, always under attack by some bad guy.
Peter and Mary Jane are out of the country, so you are the only Spider-Man in New York City. Warring groups are trying to take over, and it’s up to you to stop them before they destroy Miles’ home and hurt his family and friends.
Horizon Forbidden West
Aloy has a lot more questions than answers about what happened in the first game. In Horizon: Forbidden West, you go on another adventure with the young woman. She has to go west to Nevad and California, but there will be a lot of mechanical animals in her way.
During this open-world trip, you’ll meet new people, both friendly and not. Horizon: Forbidden West’s landscape is made up of mountainous areas, lush forests, and long-forgotten towns. Once you finally get to the Forbidden West, get ready to find a secret that will change Aloy’s future.
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor
In Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, you are once again in charge of Cal Kestis. There are many planets to discover, collectibles to find, and side tasks to do. There are also different ways to hold your lightsaber to help you fight raiders and the Empire.
At this point in his life, it’s clear that Cal is a more skilled Jedi. You’ll get to see how Cal fits in with the rest of the Star Wars world thanks to cameos from several well-known characters. You can change his look and tools to suit your tastes and then fight against the Galactic Empire.
The Last Of Us Part 1
The game was originally called The Last of Us, but when it was updated for the PS5, Part 1 was added to the end. This movie about a zombie apocalypse has been praised by critics and was made into a TV show on HBO Max. From the start to the end, it’s a wild ride.
You are in charge of Joel if you don’t know the story. He is hired to take a young girl named Ellie across the country to a study center. Along the way, he has to deal with both sick animals and dangerous people. What starts out as a job they don’t want to do turns into a bond between them that leads to a surprise finish.
God Of War Ragnarok
The story of Kratos and his son Atreus in the Norse lands continues in God of War: Ragnorak. The Ragnarok promise will soon come true, so you should get ready. You will travel through each of the nine worlds and face Norse gods and monsters along the way.
Because of what happened in Wordle Unlimited, the gods want to stop Kratos at any cost, so he has to fight to protect his family and his way of life. With your fighting and moving skills improved, it won’t be hard to fight enemies with your axe and Atreus’ bow.
Elden Ring
Elden Ring is an action-RPG set in a fantasy world. It was made by the same people who made Dark Souls. You make a character called the Tarnished and go to the Lands Between, where you have to find the Elden Ring and become an Elden Lord. You’ll need the right guns, armor, and spells to make your own play style.
Like a game made by FromSoftware, the map is full of baddies. There are huge bosses that will really put your strength and skills to the test. Elden Ring is a great game to play by yourself if you want to spend a lot of time on it. Just get ready for the anger that will follow.
