No speculation or rumours, in OPM issue 177 you can see the new PS5 console in detail, and discover the family of peripherals that will expand this next-gen hardware. 

Its design is so unique because Sony believes in fresh starts.  Jim Ryan, president and CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment says: "At PlayStation we believe in generational transitions and we put years of work into making them happen. We want you to enjoy the unique benefits of moving from one generation to the next.”

Behind the returning franchises and triple-A new PS5 titles are some of next-gen's most interesting games. The team pick 15 new games we'll be playing only on PS5, including Square Enix's developed-for-PS5 Project: Athia, indie gem Kena: Bridge Of Spirits, and the mysteriously weird Death Stranding-in-space adventure from Capcom, Pragmata. Discover all 15 games in OPM issue 177.

53 of PlayStation's hottest games revealed

OPM's annual Hot 50 list expands to a Hot 53 because there's just TOO MANY GAMES. This issue read new interviews, game screens, and gameplay details for the most exciting new games for PS5, PS4, and PS VR, including Horizon Forbidden West, Spider-Man Miles Morales, Mafia: Definitive Edition, Hitman 3, Chorus, Demon's Souls, Resident Evil Village, and many more!

“The power of the PS5 also means that we will have an option for 120fps, which is very exciting for the racers who know that every frame counts,” teases Rob Karp, Dirt 5’s development director in just one of many exclusive PS5-focussed previews.

For a glimpse of what's in this massive 180-page special issue, keep going…
