Of course, be sure to let us know what you're looking forward to most in 2020, and stay tuned to IGN's weekly PlayStation show, Podcast Beyond!, for a rundown of all the big releases and much more.

Now, let's get on with the list.

Big PS4, PS5 Games Coming in 2020

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot

Release date: Jan. 17

Bandai Namco kicks off the year with the first major Dragon Ball Z action-RPG in a long while, offering an expansive encapsulation of the DBZ saga, with plenty of character progression, sidequests, and enough DBZ to let even the most latent fans find something they love, whether it be a battle with Frieza, Cell, Majinn Buu, or even a trip to the DMV.

Darksiders: Genesis

Release date: Feb. 14

While not the traditional Darksiders entry fans may have expected after Darksiders III, Darksiders: Genesis expands the lore with a new playable horseman while also changing up the gameplay style. With a new isometric, dungeon-crawler like format, Genesis could be a bit of fresh new air for the long-running series.

Dreams

Release date: Feb. 14

Media Molecule's create-what-you-want suite of tools and toys entered early access this year, but that portion of the game's life is now over. Media Molecule will instead release the full, retail version of Dreams next year, which players who bought it in early access will receive at no extra charge.

Marvel’s Iron Man VR (PSVR)

Release date: Feb. 28

Yet another Marvel icon comes to PlayStation, albeit in a different form than Marvel’s Spider-Man. Marvel’s Iron Man puts players behind the helmet of Tony Stark in an original story developed by Camouflaj. Putting the PlayStation Move controllers to smart use, players will get to fly around in open spaces, have epic mid-air battles, and listen to some classic Tony snark in this new adventure.

Final Fantasy VII Remake

Release date: March 3

The long-awaited Final Fantasy 7 Remake finally comes to PlayStation...well, at least its first part does. The multi-episode remake promises an expanded, beautifully redone version of FF7’s first section set in Midgar. While certainly a nostalgia trip for longtime fans, FF7’s remake is also offering returning and new players something completely different with expanded content and a new battle system.

Nioh 2

Release date: March 13

For those looking for a Souls-like experience, the original Nioh offered a fantastic alternative with some incredible enemies and action. Nioh 2 is looking to recapture that magic next year, and has already had an open beta to let players test out the series’ newest challenges.

MLB The Show 20

Release date: March 17

Sony's stalwart yearly baseball series returns in March for its final outing before the PS5 launches. More interestingly, though, is MLB: The Show's future, as Sony and the MLB have announced plans to release the franchise on non-Sony consoles in the years to follow.

Doom Eternal

Release date: March 20

Though the Doom 2016 sequel saw a delay from late 2019 to the already packed 2020, it remains highly anticipated thanks to the impressive release of the Doom reboot as well as some spectacular gameplay shown at E3 2019. Thankfully, we won’t have to wait for hell to freeze over to play it.

Persona 5 Royal

Release window: March 31, 2020

A deluxe edition of the acclaimed Persona 5, Persona 5 Royal will introduce new characters, new story elements, new boss battles and more while also reintroducing players to the wild story of the Phantom Thieves that first debuted in 2017.

Resident Evil 3

Release date: April 3

Capcom is quickly following up its acclaimed Resident Evil 2 Remake with Resident Evil 3, offering a fully remade version of the original, plus a brand new multiplayer mode that we’ve previously known as Project Resistance. Though RE2 may have been originally more acclaimed, the remake set such a strong standard that we hope RE3 will match.

Release date: April 16

CD Projekt Red’s follow-up to the vaulted The Witcher 3 looks to be another crazy-deep RPG, this time in first-person rather than third, set in the world of the beloved CRPG Cyberpunk 2020. Impressive E3 showings two years in a row earned Cyberpunk 2077 IGN’s Game of E3 both years, so it’s safe to say this is one of our most anticipated launches of 2020.

Predator: Hunting Grounds

Release window: April 24

A surprise announcement during a 2019 State of Play, Predator: Hunting Grounds comes from the devs behind Friday the 13th. Offering a similar experience, pitting players as human soldiers against one player as the Predator, Hunting Grounds impressed us in our first hands-on experience.

Marvel’s Avengers

Release date: May 15

Despite a rocky unveiling at E3 2019, Square Enix and developer Crystal Dynamics have been demonstrating what makes Marvel’s Avengers an ambitious take on the world of Marvel’s biggest heroes.

Wasteland 3

Release date: May 19

After a fundraising campaign, Wasteland 3 is officially on the way for a release in the first half of next year, developed by inXile Entertainment. Wasteland 3 is set in a post-apocalyptic Colorado, as players assume the role of a surviving member of the Team November squad.

The Last of Us Part 2

Release date: May 29

Delivering a sequel to one of PlayStation’s most beloved games is no small task, but if any studio is up to it, its Uncharted developers Naughty Dog. Following up their acclaimed The Last of Us with Part 2, Naughty Dog is looking to deliver its most ambitious game ever. But don’t expect a return of The Last of Us’ multiplayer mode with it.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2

Release date: Q2 - Q4 2020

Despite a slight delay, Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 is still set to be released sometime in 2020. We've seen plenty of info on the clans that will be present in the sequel that comes years after the original. And while we haven't seen much gameplay yet, the TTRPG adaptation has enough potential to keep us interested as we head into next year.

Dying Light 2

Release window: Spring 2020

Dying Light 2 impressed us with its E3 2019 showing and the ambitious scale its world is promising. Following up on the surprise hit original, Dying Light 2 is looking to give players dramatically different experiences through choices they make, opening up and closing off large portions of the world and drastically altering the story’s course. We’ll hopefully see how that gamble pays off next year.

Psychonauts 2

Release window: 2020

Though developer Double Fine Studios is now an Xbox first-party developer, its already in-development Psychonauts 2 is still set for a PS4 launch. And there’s still plenty of reason to be excited given the charm, cleverness, and unique gameplay of the original that Double Fine looks to be capturing with the sequel.

Ghost of Tsushima

Release window: Summer 2020

Sony’s Sucker Punch has been relatively quiet about its upcoming samurai adventure, but what we’ve seen so far, coupled with Sucker Punch’s pedigree, makes it easily one of our most anticipated games of the year. Sucker Punch brought us great open-world superhero adventures with Infamous, and the gorgeous demos we’ve seen of Ghost of Tsushima so far promise an expansive, bloody, and beautiful Kurosawa-like adventure.

LEGO: Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga

Release window: 2020

Rather than just remaster all previous LEGO Star Wars games, longtime LEGO lads and lasses TT Games have made a brand-new adventure that ambitiously captures the entire Skywalker saga so far. Our hands-off demo at E3 2019 impressed us with the project’s scope, but we’ll have to wait to see if it lives up to the previous, great LEGO Star Wars games.

SpongeBob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated

Release window: 2020

Battle for Bikini Bottom is from a bygone era. We don’t quite get as many licensed console games as we once did, but Bikini Bottom is a beloved and surprisingly solid 3D platformer. We’ll have to wait to see if it holds up in 2020, but the art update and a promise of a return to SpongeBob’s world certainly has us excited.

Streets of Rage 4

Release window: 2020

Nostalgia has fueled no shortage of both good and… well, not-so-good games in recent years, but even so Streets of Rage 4 has continued to be one of our most anticipated games. And that’s in large part because it’s not trying to rock the boat — Streets of Rage as a couch co-op beat ‘em up is still fun to play, and getting the chance to do so with new levels, new characters, and a new look is something we’re excited to play.

System Shock Remastered

Release date: 2020

System Shock Remastered has been known of for a long time but will hopefully be out in full next year, offering fans a chance to head back to the acclaimed franchise or experience it for the first time.

The Wolf Among Us 2

Release date: 2020

The newly reformed Telltale announced its next big project, a revival of the formerly announced The Wolf Among Us 2. While the Wolf sequel was first announced by Telltale back in 2017, this new version will be developed by AdHoc Studio, which is comprised of former Telltale veterans.

Gods and Monsters

Second half of 2020

We’ve seen very little of Gods and Monsters, the follow-up game from the Assassin’s Creed Odyssey team, but the pedigree of that studio, coupled with their clear love of Greek mythology already has us intrigued. Throw on top of that a new art style and a Breath of the Wild-esque aesthetic and we’re hoping Ubisoft lifts the lid on this one soon.

Watch Dogs: Legion

Second half of 2020

You can play as any NPC. That’s a pretty ambitious pitch, but Watch Dogs: Legion’s E3 2019 showing proved that the idea was more than just a neat logline. Picking up new team members from anyone in a world while simultaneously hopping around that world to various characters is a thrilling twist on the open-world series.

Little Nightmares 2

Release window: 2020

The startling debut of the Little Nightmares series has us eagerly awaiting what twisted storytelling and worldbuilding the sequel could deliver. With a haunting, meloncholy atmosphere married with puzzle and stealth-focused gameplay, the original offered an adventure that has us scared in the best ways possible to return.

And Beyond…

Persona 5 Scramble: The Phantom Strikers

Release window: Unknown (Feb. 20 in Japan)

While Persona 5 Royal is confirmed for a Western release now, it’s the second Persona 5 game that has us particularly intrigued. Currently only set for a Japanese release date, Persona 5 Scramble blends the Phantom Thieves with the musou action genre while also introducing what looks to be a surprisingly packed follow-up to the beloved Persona 5.

Yakuza: Like a Dragon

Release window: Unknown (Jan. 16 in Japan)

The next entry in the Yakuza franchise, a favorite of IGN’s Max Scoville, is throwing out the rulebook and introduced a turn-based battle system instead of the realtime combat of previous entries. Whether it can be balanced with the rest of the Yakuza series’ charm remains a question, but hopefully it’s one we get to experience soon.

PlayStation 5

Release window: Holiday 2020

OK, sure, it’s not a game, but the launch of a brand new next-generation console is kind of a big deal, and we want to highlight it. We know Sony is planning a console that offers some sort of PS4 backward compatibility, PSVR support, new controllers with more intricate feedback, and...not much else as of publish. But we’ll surely learn plenty more in the months to come ahead of its planned holiday 2020 launch.

Godfall

Release window: 2020

Again, a bit of a cheat, but Godfall is the first game to be announced as a PS5 console exclusive, with a planned release on PC, too. Godfall will be coming to PS5 next year and offer up to three players to play together in a “looter-slasher” focused on melee combat.
