February 2026 is stacked, and PlayStation 5 owners are about to feel it. This is not a quiet month filled with filler releases. It is busy, loud, and packed with PS5 games that demand your time and storage space.
A calm start that quickly ramps up
The month kicks off on 1 February with Starsand Island. It is a calm start, but things escalate very quickly. By 5 February, Dragon Quest VII Reimagined arrives and immediately becomes one of the month’s biggest talking points.
This modern rebuild brings cleaner visuals, smoother systems, and a tighter flow. It feels welcoming for newcomers while still respecting long-time fans. If you missed the original, this is the version to play.
Early February brings the pain
6 February is where things get serious. Nioh 3 lands with a sharper focus on combat, letting players switch between Samurai and Ninja styles on the fly. It looks brutal, fast, and demanding, exactly what fans expect.
Give it a look: AAA games strike back in 2026 with long-awaited blockbusters and bold new IPs
On the same day, My Hero Academia: All’s Justice steps in with something lighter but still packed with energy. It is a strong one-two punch for action fans.
Mid-month is packed with variety
Mid-February refuses to slow down. 12 February brings Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties. This is not just a remake. It includes a fully rebuilt Yakuza 3 and a brand-new side story that expands the world even further.
Alongside it are Ride 6, ChromaGun 2, and BlazBlue Entropy Effect X. There is something here for racing fans, puzzle lovers, and fighting game players alike.
February ends with a survival horror heavyweight
The final stretch is relentless. Tokyo Xtreme Racer brings high-speed street racing, while Towerborne and Raiden Fighters Remix Collection cater to action and strategy fans.
Then, on 27 February, Resident Evil Requiem closes the month in style. The series returns to Raccoon City with two very different experiences. One leans into pure horror. The other pushes fast, explosive action. Both feel unmistakably Resident Evil.
One of the strongest PS5 game months in years
Taken as a whole, February 2026 is one of the strongest months the PS5 has seen in a long time. Big RPGs, intense action games, deep remakes, and major sequels all land within weeks of each other.
If your backlog was already out of control, February is about to make it worse.
