The PlayStation 5 offers a compelling selection of free-to-play games, a category that has seen significant growth recently. The success of titles like Fortnite and Genshin Impact has spurred many developers to embrace the free-to-play model.

Top-tier free-to-play games can provide hundreds of hours of entertainment at no cost. Some boast visuals and gameplay rivaling premium titles. Even if those are exceptions, many free games are perfect for shorter play sessions. Here are some of the best free PS5 games available.

Note that this list includes popular PS4 titles playable on the PS5. While quality is a primary ranking factor, newly released games will initially appear higher on the list.

Updated January 5, 2024, by Mark Sammut: While primarily beneficial to a smaller subset of PS5 users, the PlayStation Store boasts a strong catalog of PS VR2 games. Free experiences remain less common, but an exception was added in November 2024. See the link below for details on this free PS VR2 game.
