The month of June is set to be a particularly exciting one for PlayStation 5 gamers. Sony's PlayStation 5 was first released in 2020 and has been a massive hit. While the pandemic and scalpers made things a little rocky at first, PS5 sales have been incredibly strong, with the console building an impressive library of games.
When it comes to the PS5, some months are certainly more exciting than others. 2025 hasn't seen any particular month stand out all that much for the console, but that will change with June 2025. Next month should prove to be very exciting for PS5 gamers, as fans have some high-profile new game releases to look forward to alongside major events.
Sony Hints PS5 Prices Could Be Going Up Soon
Sony suggests that it could raise the price of the PlayStation 5 in response to the current tariff environment during its latest earnings call.
There is one day in particular that PS5 gamers will want to circle on their calendars. Summer Game Fest Live will air on Friday, June 6, with the event sure to be full of exciting PS5 game announcements. Past Geoff Keighley-hosted shows have included some stunning PS5 reveals, like The Game Awards 2024's unveiling of Naughty Dog's new game, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. Even if Sony itself doesn't have anything to show at Summer Game Fest this year, fans can rest assured that the event will be worth watching for PS5 gamers.
When is Summer Game Fest 2025?
- Friday, June 6
Summer Game Fest is sure to have PS5 reveals in store, but there's also a chance that a PlayStation-focused event is on the way as well. Nothing official has been announced at the time of this writing, but rumor has it that Sony's State of Play showcase is coming back in June. Time will tell on that front, but in the meantime, there's plenty more reason for PS5 gamers to be excited about June 2025.
June 2025 will be home to all kinds of brand-new PS5 game releases, including some notable heavy hitters. June 5 will see the launch of Chapters 3 and 4 of Deltarune, while MindsEye, from former Rockstar Games producer and designer Leslie Benzies, is launching on June 10. The intriguing survival game with a clone twist, The Alters, is coming on June 13, while Remedy Entertainment's co-op game set in the Control universe, FBC: Firebreak, is launching on June 17.
