With the PlayStation 5 releasing worldwide side by side month, Sony has gone into full swing on the next-gen consoles marketing. 1 of the organisation'due south principal selling points is backwards compatibility, with all only ten obscure PlayStation 4 games moving over to next-gen.

Many of the 4000+ PS4 games playable on PS5 will accept college frame rates or, like Final Fantasy fourteen'due south PS5 version, faster load times. Some obscure games did non make the cutting, however, with 10 titles being listed in a PS Blog post as sectional to the PS4 platform. The reasoning behind their exclusivity is unclear, though most if non all the games in question are unknown or unpopular.

  • DWVR
  • Afro Samurai two Revenge of Kuma Volume One
  • TT Mann - Ride on the Edge 2
  • Just Deal With It!
  • Shadow Complex Remastered
  • Robinson: The Journey
  • We Sing
  • Hitman Go: Definitive Edition
  • Shadwen
  • Joe's Diner

Kicking off the list is arguably the best-known game on the listing, Hitman: Go. A turn-based puzzle game released back around the PlayStation 4's launch, the game spawned a Tomb Raider spinoff that shared similar mechanics. The indie titles were far from reaching the popularity of the principal series, however, originally releasing on mobile devices and coming to PlayStation with some piece of cake bays lists.

Crytek's VR game Robinson: The Journey, which was considered by some to exist i of the worst games of 2016, besides makes the list of PS4 only titles. It is joined by an obscure only decently reviewed racing game in TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge two and stealth game Shadwen, as well as the indie horror game Joe'south Diner. Party games We Sing! and Just Deal With Information technology will both not make the cut, with VR title DWVR and the poorly received Afro Samurai 2 also being locked onto the PS4 platform.

The last game beingness kept exclusively on PlayStation 4 may exist the almost disappointing for its few loyal fans, every bit the cult classic Shadow Complex: Remastered will not exist playable on PS5. Ironically, Shadow Circuitous get-go came to the electric current consoles through Xbox One astern compatibility, but it will not be doing the same for the next-gen PlayStation platform. With most gamers not knowing about Shadow Complex or any of the other games on this listing, withal, it is unlikely that these games not being backwards compatible has any event on the sales of the PlayStation five.

Considering Sony has loftier expectations for PS5 console sales due to player interest in features like backward compatibility, PlayStation players should be more than happy with the huge library of astern uniform games Sony is providing. For hardcore Shadow Complex fans, nonetheless, hanging onto that PS4 may be a good idea.

The PlayStation 5 will launch on Nov 12 in the US, Nippon, Canada, Mexico, Commonwealth of australia, New Zealand, and South korea, and volition launch everywhere else on November 19.
