Thursday's announcement included some games coming to the PS5 that already exist on PS4, the current generation gaming console, such as "Grand Theft Auto V."
Here are the highlights:
'Spider-Man: Miles Morales'
|
Spider-Man was already a PlayStation 4 exclusive, so fans were expecting the franchise to come to the PS5 as well. Sony confirmed to CNN Business that "Spider-Man: Miles Morales" will be a PS5 exclusive.
It's a sequel to the 2018 title featuring Miles, a character best known for appearing in the animated film "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse."
The game builds on its previous title: Miles was briefly teased at the end of the 2018 game, and Peter Parker, the original Spider-Man, can be heard in the new trailer. The game will launch on the PS5 this holiday season.
'Gran Turismo 7'

Popular racing game "Gran Turismo" is getting an installment on the PlayStation 5. The new title, "Gran Turismo 7," doesn't have a release date yet but already features a campaign mode that lets players earn and customize new cars by winning races.
The Japanese franchise has been a loyal part of the Sony ecosystem: "Gran Turismo 6" came out back in 2013 for the PlayStation 3, while the PlayStation 4 saw "Gran Turismo Sport" in 2017.
'Resident Evil 8'
|
"Resident Evil 8" was another highly anticipated title, which continues the successful horror series in 2021. The full name is "Resident Evil 8: Village," and it's coming to the PlayStation 5.
It's a sequel to the survival horror game "Resident Evil 7" with a different setting than the previous game. The backdrop appears gray and snowy, infested with werewolf-esque monsters.
The "Resident Evil 3" remake launched earlier in April. Producer Peter Fabiano told CNN Business at the time why fans had demanded a remake: "I think the characters, settings and overall themes and thrills of the series keep people wanting to come back for more."
