Xbox Games Now Available On PS5 – Grounded
- Release date: April 16th, 2024
- Genre: Action Adventure, Survival Sandbox, RPG
- Developer: Obsidian Entertainment
Imagine waking up tiny, surrounded by blades of grass like towering trees and pebbles like boulders. That’s the reality for our protagonists in Grounded, a first-person, cooperative survival adventure game that has long enjoyed a period of popularity with gamers since its early access release back in July 2020. Shrunk down to the size of ants, you and up to three friends must explore the treacherous, yet beautiful, backyard as Grounded unfurls a survival sandbox quite unlike any other.
In Grounded, every dewdrop becomes a perilous pond, a ladybug a lumbering giant, and even a simple acorn a valuable resource. Gather materials, craft tools and armor, and build bases to shelter from the elements and hungry insects. Hunger and thirst are constant threats. Scavenge for food and water, learning the dangers and benefits of the microscopic world. A juicy aphid might be a feast, but its soldier kin won’t hesitate to defend it. You don’t remember how you shrunk or why you’re here. Scattered throughout the backyard are clues left by a mysterious scientist, Dr. Tully. Follow his trail, decipher his recordings, and unravel the secrets behind your miniature predicament.
Was it an accident? An experiment gone wrong? The truth awaits, but be warned, uncovering it may involve facing even bigger dangers. Teamwork is key as you must share resources, build elaborate bases together, and strategize how to tackle the oversized backyard denizens. From the territorial ladybug to the fearsome spider, each encounter demands careful planning and coordinated action. After all, shrinking down might be scary, but the journey to get back to normal can be an unforgettable (and hilarious) adventure.
Xbox Games Now Available On PS5 – Hi-Fi Rush
- Release date: March 19th, 2024
- Genre: Rhythm, Action Adventure
- Developer: Tango Gameworks
In Hi-Fi Rush, you take on the role of Chai, an aspiring rockstar whose life takes a wild turn when a corporate procedure goes wrong, fusing his heart with a music player and, well, you can probably guess what happens next. This rather unexpected upgrade grants him the ability to not only feel the rhythm around him, but also manipulate it to his advantage to channel tremendous amounts of energy into just about any scenario. Now labelled a defect, Chai is hunted by the evil tech megacorp responsible for the mishap, but instead of cowering, he fights back with – you guessed it – rhythm-amplified combat.
Imagine stylish action sequences where your attacks flow seamlessly to the beat, enemies telegraph their moves in sync with the music, and even the environment pulsates with rhythm. As Chai, you’ll team up with a ragtag crew of allies, each with their own unique fighting styles and personalities, to rebel against the corporate overlords and expose their nefarious plans as you leap, smash and rock through this tremendous rhythmic odyssey with style to spare.
Xbox Games Now Available On PS5 – Pentiment
- Release date: February 22, 2024
- Genre: RPG, Narrative Adventure
- Developer: Obsidian Entertainment
Pentiment is a historical narrative-driven game set in the Bavarian Alps during the 16th century that is probably quite unlike anything else you have ever played (and considering its developer is Fallout: New Vegas developer Obsidian Entertainment, that’s saying something). In Pentiment you play as Andreas Maler, a skilled artist and scholar traveling across Europe who gets unceremoniously tangled up in a series of murders spanning a quarter of a decade. Pentiment is not your typical action-packed title, that’s for sure. Boasting a slow-burning narrative experience that invites you to think, explore, and immerse yourself in a captivating historical mystery, Pentiment’s mysteries unfold across a twenty-five year span of time, with the characters and locations that you visit all aging and changing in different ways. Prepare to be challenged by ethical dilemmas, complex characters, and the weight of your choices. If you enjoy narrative-driven games, historical settings, and making impactful decisions, Pentiment looks set to find a welcome home on PS5.
Xbox Games Now Available On PS5 – Sea Of Thieves
- Release date: April 30th, 2024
- Genre: MMORPG, Adventure, Open World
- Developer: Rare Ltd
For the uninitiated, Sea of Thieves isn’t a game with a traditional overarching story; instead, it focuses on creating your own pirate legend through sandbox gameplay and MMORPG style progression. Once you’ve painstakingly created your buccaneer you’re whisked off to the high seas where the pirate life never ends, exploring a vast, open world filled with islands, hidden coves, treacherous storms, and mythical creatures. Whether playing solo or with friends, Sea of Thieves provides a seemingly never-ending litany of exciting quests to complete as you raise the sails, fire your cannons and complete voyages for Trading Companies, earning gold and reputation through tasks like hunting treasure, solving riddles, and delivering cargo. Filled to the brim with emergent player stories, Sea of Thieves lets you determine exactly what kind of pirate you want to be. Will you be a friendly trader, a ruthless plunderer, or something in between? Every encounter with other players is unique, leading to thrilling alliances or intense battles. Finally, Sea of Thieves also allows eager swashbucklers to discover lore and stories through optional “Tall Tales” campaigns, featuring narrative-driven adventures and even a crossover with properties like Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean and Lucasarts The Secret of Monkey Island.
Xbox Games Now Available On PS5 – Indiana Jones And The Great Circle
Release Date: April 17th, 2025
Genre: Action, Adventure
Developer: MachineGames
The whip-wielding archaeologist makes his way to the PS5 with MachineGames’ critically acclaimed Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, taking him on a globetrotting adventure as he races to uncover the mysteries of the Great Circle. In typical Indy fashion, he’s not the only ones on the hunt, with the Nazi party also conducting their own investigation. In terms of gameplay, MachineGames has crammed everything that defined the character in the films into one sprawling video game epic. As such, you’ll be using Indy’s whip to disarm and stun enemies, scaling walls, and swinging across gaping chasms, while duffing up bad guys with your fists in scrappy fights feel true to the character’s trademark brawls. Firearms are only really meant to be a last resort or your risk alerting swarms of reinforcements, so stealth plays a crucial role as Indy creeps around while bonking unsuspecting foes on the head with whatever he can lay his hands on. Players will get to visit a number of stunning locations including Vatican City, an Egyptian dig site packed with dusty tombs, lush jungles and ruins, and many more, and there’s heaps of side quests and activities if you fancy venturing off the beaten path. If adventure has a name, it’s Indiana Jones!
Xbox Games Now Available On PS5 – DOOM: The Dark Ages
Release Date: May 13th, 2025
Genre: First-Person Shooter
Developer: id Software
DOOM: The Dark Ages acts as a prequel to 2016’s DOOM, but this time, developer id Software has decided to shake things up a bit by pulling back on the fast-paced, acrobatic shootouts of the past two games to something more grounded. As such, DOOM: The Dark Ages offers combat that’s a lot heavier and grounded, where strategy is more emphasised. The DOOM Slayer is now able to wield a Shield Saw that accommodates key moves such as blocking, parrying, and attacking, while the Skull Crusher weapon lobs bone fragments at the denizens of Hell. New to the The Dark Ages is the ability to pilot vehicles including a cybernetic dragon and a hulking Atlan mech, while there’s a much greater focus on storytelling, with regular cutscenes punctuating the blood-spilling, demon-eviscerating action.
Xbox Games Now Available On PS5 – As Dusk Falls
Release Date: March 7th, 2024
Genre: Adventure, Interactive Storytelling
Developer: Interior Night
A narrative-heavy adventure that kicks off in 1998, As Dusk Falls focuses on the lives of two families across a period of thirty years, beginning with a robbery-gone-wrong in a small town in Arizona. Players can unearth different outcomes for each character in the narrative by replaying the story multiple games, as you make key choices that have a major impact on the lives of each character, as the story connects elements of betrayal, sacrifice, and resilience. Whether a character survives unscathed is up to you as you unearth hidden nuances behind every decision you make.
Xbox Games Now Available On PS5 – Gears Of War Reloaded
Release Date: August 26th, 2026
Genre: Third-Person Shooter, Action
Developer: The Coalition
Gears of War Reloaded is a full remaster over the genre-defining 2006 shooter released on Xbox 360, and most importantly, marks the first time that the franchise has graced a PlayStation console. Gears of War Reloaded is set on the planet of Sera, which has been subjected to a devastating invasion by a race of subterranean creatures known as the Locust, which quickly overwhelm the surface world and leave humanity on its last legs. This is where you come in. As members of COG, Marcus Fenix and buddy Dom Santiago take the fight to the Locust hordes as they battle through the city streets, underground tunnels, dilapidated buildings, and more using a variety of powerful firearms. Ever wanted a machine gun with a chainsaw equipped? Welcome to Gears of War! In terms of mechanics, the game perfects the art of cover shooters; transitioning to cover spots is seamless and feels rewarding, as does the crunchy combat as you pop up to take a shot at your foes before slamming in a fresh magazine with the addictive Active Reload. Brimming underneath all the muscle-bound action is a surprisingly compelling narrative, not to mention some sumptuous art direction and visual spectacle.
Xbox Games Now Available On PS5 – Forza Horizon 5
Release Date: April 29th, 2005
Genre: Racing
Developer: Playground Games
Forza Horizon 5 remains the best-selling PS5 release for an Xbox first-party title to date, although to be fair, it’s not hard to see why. This latest entry in the spin-off series – the mainline Forza games are of course more simulation-based games after all – offers its own take on Mexico, offering a sprawling open world to test your driving skills. Not only does Forza Horizon 5 look and run absolutely beautifully on Sony’s hardware, but its map is about 50% larger than its predecessor, offering the biggest in the series up until the arrival of Forza Horizon 6 (which is also PS5-bound). Petrol heads can go to town in the game’s comprehensive customisation feature, with custom liveries and tunes for vehicles available alongside engine swaps; even the player’s character can be heavily tinkered with, tailoring everything to your own flashy preference. Ray-tracing effects meanwhile offer a lush visual leap in fidelity as cars sparkle with vibrancy across open roads, with environments peppered with everything from active volcanoes, Mayan temples, to tropical jungles and sun-soaked beaches. Whether you’re just cruising around the open-world or taking part in adrenaline-pumping races, Forza Horizon 5 brings the series to new heights and sets a new standard for racing games and play freedom.
Xbox Games Now Available On PS5 – South Of Midnight
Release Date: March 31st, 2026
Genre: Action-Adventure
Developer: Compulsion Games
Rooted in Deep South mythos, South of Midnight takes place in a Gothic-flavoured American Deep South and follows Hazel, who battles against foes that are physical manifestations of deep-rooted sorrow and trauma, known Haints. South of Midnight is noted for its emulation of stop-motion animation for its cutscenes, giving it a distinct visual flavour, with combat based around melee attacks utilising Hazel’s hooks, which can be used to deadly result with multiple combos. The fantasy backdrop allows for multiple creatures based on South American legends, including Two-Toed Tom, Rougarou, and Altamaha-ha.
Xbox Games Now Available On PS5 – Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024
Release Date: December 8th, 2025
Genre: Flight Sim
Developer: Asobo Studio
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, the latest instalment in the venerable franchise that began way back in 1982, is one of the most recent Xbox titles to come to the PS5 and is packed with fresh ideas. The standard flight simulation experience is here as you would expect, but developer Asobo Studio has added a more nuanced gameplay offering with extra missions such as aerial firefighting, search and rescue, chopper cargo hook transport, air ambulance, and much more. Players can also hop into the cockpit of a series of new aircraft, with new types such as gliders, airships, and hot air balloons included in the roster. Visually, Microsoft Simulator 2024 goes to town with a varied and stunning batch of locations, with new effects such as wildfires, snow, tornadoes, and animal migration bringing environments to life like never before.
Xbox Games Now Available On PS5 – Avowed
Release Date: February 17th, 2026
Genre: Action-RPG
Developer: Obsidian Entertainment
Developed by the same creative minds behind the much-loved Fallout: New Vegas, Avowed is set in the fantasy realm of Eora, in a region known as the Living Lands. Combining both first-person and third-person views, Avowed follows an Aedyr Empire envoy tasked with investigating a plague known as the Dream Scourge, and marries traditional melee and firearm battles with extensive use of magical abilities, with players given access to a huge range of spells to unleash. Obsidian has packed Avowed with a number of large, explorable zones — it’s not strictly an open world title — and much like The Outer Worlds, its dialogue choices will shape your character’s relationships with NPCs and companions, and key decisions will impact the narrative directly. Companions are a major factor in shaping the game’s combat, offering greater tactical depth and an undercurrent of storytelling during battles, and the PS5 release specifically adds a wealth of quality-of-life improvements over the original release.

Upcoming Xbox Games Coming To PS5 – Halo: Campaign Evolved
Release Date: July 28th, 2026
Genre: Shooter
Developer: Halo Studios
Who would have thought we’d see a Halo game on a PlayStation console? Well, it’s happening, and it’s not just a quick port, either; Halo: Campaign Evolved is a full remake of the iconic Xbox shooter from 2001, completely overhauling Master Chief’s first adventure for modern platforms. While there’s no multiplayer, Halo Studios takes the campaign kicking and screaming into 2026 with Unreal Engine 5-powered visuals, plus completely redesigned missions and a brand new prequel chapter that follows Master Chief and Sgt. Avery Johnson. The story has also spruced up with re-recorded dialogue, plus remade cinematic and audio, and full Cross-Platform Play and Cross-Progression are all included for PC and console versions of the game. Beyond that, Halo Studios has implemented nine new weapons to complement the existing arsenal from Halo: Combat Evolved, as well as gameplay modifiers known as Skulls — something which was also included in Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary back in 2011.

Minecraft Dungeons 2 is the latest chapter in the franchise, and sees playings journeying through unexplored lands and mysterious locations as you set out to stop a new threat from wrecking havoc across two worlds. Drop your pickaxe and replace it with a sword, where you’ll clash weapons with marauding enemies and battle your way through hordes of mobs that will stop at nothing to stop you.
