5 best upcoming action RPG titles on PS5

For almost thirty years, the gaming business has relied heavily on action RPG titles. From the likes of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Lies of P, Hogwarts Legacy to games like Octopath Traveler 2, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Baldur's Gate 3, and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, the genre usually welcomes a few notable titles each month. That is why new RPG titles are always knocking on the door.
Because AAA projects in this genre are so ambitious, they are frequently revealed years in advance, which can lead to incredibly high expectations. There have been some disappointments in the past because it can be tough to halt the hype train once it starts. On the other hand, a RPG is beautiful when it fulfills its potential. So, let’s take a look at the top 5 upcoming action RPG titles on PS5:


There aren't many serious competitors to Gearbox's Borderlands, which is the quintessential looter-shooter series. Borderlands 3 and Tiny Tina's Wonderlands are nevertheless excellent cooperative shooters with plenty of role-playing game aspects to please players who wish to experiment with different builds and loadouts, even though they have received a variety of complaints that may not make them completely adored.
Although there is currently very little information available, Borderlands 4 is tentatively scheduled for release in 2025. The concept art that is currently accessible and the B4 reveal trailer both lacked a lot of detail. Because of the IP's generally good reputation, there is still a lot of interest about the project despite the dearth of information.


Elden Ring: Nightreign consists of many things. Even though it can be played solo, the standalone game appears to have been created primarily with multiplayer in mind. After selecting a character, players are placed on a map where they have three days to survive and defeat enemies.
Players will then have to run for that fight in order to defeat the main boss before anyone else does. Because the map gets smaller and the player pool gets smaller as the match progresses to the final encounter, matches are effectively organized like battle royales. In that every run should be a little different, it is also somewhat akin to a roguelike.


Lost Souls Aside, a PS5 exclusive that will also be available on PC, has been gaining traction and setting the stage for what should be a successful launch. Ultizero's title, which has an anime aesthetic reminiscent of some Final Fantasy games, centers on Kaser, a rebel whose attempt to overthrow the Empire coincides with the arrival of a meteor that causes chaos in his world.
With his newfound abilities, he sets out to save his sister and the world. The gameplay trailer for Lost Souls Aside depicts a fast-paced hack and slash system with RPG elements through player choice, weapon variety, and skill progression.


Bloodlines: Vampire: The Masquerade is the epitome of a cult classic. Even though it has some rough spots, the RPG has excellent characters and writing, as well as a ton of customization options that give players a lot of creative freedom.
Bloodlines 2, which is set in Seattle, allows players to design a newly transformed vampire by selecting attributes such as their discipline and human ancestry. The deep clan system in Vampire: The Masquerade, which allows players to join one of the vampire organizations active in the city, is partly responsible for the game's popularity. Bloodlines 2 ought to contain this component.


As far as the footage and information that are currently available indicate, "Clair Obscur: Expedition 33" appears to be title. With a paintress who can kill anyone of a certain age as the main antagonist, Sandfall Interactive is creating a turn-based role-playing game set in a distinctive fantasy world with an intriguing, almost surreal aesthetic. There is a sense of cosmic horror to that idea, which is fantastic.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 makes use of a combat system that seems to combine traditional JRPG components with real-time commands, hopefully striking a balance that accentuates the advantages of both approaches. This is a welcome change of pace for a Western developer. The game should look amazing because it was also created using Unreal Engine 5.
