The PS5 Game of the Month race is on, and October 2025 is a tough one to call! With a jam-packed release schedule, gamers have been spoiled for choice. But which title will reign supreme? It's time to decide, and the competition is fierce!
First, let's talk about the highly anticipated Ghost of Yotei, an exclusive PS5 sequel that has critics raving. With its captivating story and immersive gameplay, it's a strong contender for the top spot. But will it be a case of 'all hype, no substance' for some players? Only time will tell.
Ninja Gaiden 4, a fan-favorite action game, is back with a bang! If it wins, it'll be a hat-trick for the series this year. But is this a case of franchise fatigue, or a testament to its enduring appeal? You decide.
Battlefield 6 has made a stunning comeback, reminding us why we fell in love with the series. But is this just a temporary resurgence, or a true return to form? And what about ARC Raiders, the online sensation? It's a hit with team players, but will it have the staying power to win the GOTM?
October also brought unique gems like Ball X Pit, a roguelike with a twist, PowerWash Simulator 2, which turns mundane tasks into an addictive experience, and the charmingly silly Once Upon Katamari. And let's not forget the RPG delights: The Outer Worlds 2, Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake, and Digimon Story Time Stranger, offering a diverse range of adventures.
Looking back at 2025's winners so far, we've seen a mix of sequels and new IPs. From the intense Ninja Gaiden 2 Black in January to the immersive Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 in February, and the mysterious Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 in April, each month has brought something special. But here's where it gets controversial: is the voting process truly reflective of the best games, or is it influenced by hype and release timing?
So, cast your vote for October's PS5 Game of the Month, and share your thoughts. Do you agree with the current front-runners, or is there an underdog that deserves more recognition? And what about the games that didn't make the cut? Are there any hidden gems you believe should have been included?
Voting ends on November 6th, so don't delay! And remember, this is just the beginning of the conversation. Share your opinions in the comments below, and let's keep the gaming discourse alive!
