The list of new PS5 and PS4 games for the week beginning July 8, 2024, is made up almost entirely of indie games although there is plenty of choice.

We enter the second half of the year on a quieter note, although the list of new PS5 and PS4 games for the week beginning July 1, 2024, does have some notable titles. The highlight of the week is likely to be Zenless Zone Zero, the latest game from Genshin Impact developer MiHoYo. There’s also free-to-play shooter The First Descendant and the latest in the The Legend of Heroes: Trails series.

Hoyoverse’s urban fantasy action RPG will be hoping to replicate the success of Genshin Impact.

Elsewhere, third-person online co-op looter shooter The First Descendent will pit player-controlled Descendents against alien invaders taking over the planet of Ingris. There’s also The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak; the first game in the Trails Through Daybreak story arc finally makes its way west after a release in Japan two years ago.

Sony Interactive Entertainment launched the PlayStation VR2 last year, bringing virtual reality capabilities to the PlayStation 5. However, the platform has been struggling for some time, and it appears that Sony is losing faith. A recent report indicates that the publisher is scaling back support for new PSVR 2 games.

Is Sony giving up on PSVR 2?

According to Android Central, their sources indicate that Sony was cutting funding for PSVR 2 games. There are reportedly only two first-party games in development for that platform, and there will be few opportunities for more going forward. Sony has yet to comment on that report, though it’s a concerning sign for the future of the PS5’s VR system.

This is by no means the first indication that the $550 peripheral might be in trouble. News broke in March that Sony had paused production of the PSVR 2 due to the high number of unsold headsets. While many praise the system’s features and technical performance, its high price was cited as the primary factor in its poor sales.

The lack of games also isn’t a new problem for PSVR 2. Sony has only released a handful of first-party games for the platform and none in 2024. The publisher also shut down two of its VR studios, shuttering Blood & Truth developer London Studio and Firewall developer First Contact Entertainment.

Sony is releasing a PSVR 2 PC adapter next month, which could help sales by opening it to a larger market. However, with Sony reportedly scaling back its investment in new VR games, some might wonder how much longer it will take before Sony stops supporting it.

The week of June 17, 2024, is quieter than usual as the list of new PS5 and PS4 games only includes indie games despite the recent excitement of Summer Game Fest. The highlight will be Still Wakes The Deep from The Chinese Room, developer of Dear Esther and Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture.

It looks like Sony’s gearing up to announce a release date for PSVR 2 PC integration, if an adapter certification is anything to go by. A “PlayStation VR 2 PC adapter” was certified in South Korea back in March, the listing for which has just appeared online.

PSVR 2 PC release date announcement expected in Summer 2024

Back in February, Sony briefly revealed that it was working to bring PSVR 2 support to PC, which would give the headset owners access to PC VR games as well. The company said that it would add PC support sometime in 2024, but we haven’t received any updates since.

The very next month, PSVR 2 received a system software update that enabled PC access, eliminating the need to use workarounds. However, players still needed an adapter to make things work, which officially isn’t available yet.

As spotted by X user Brad Lynch, Sony’s PSVR 2 adapter has since been certified, which indicates that PSVR 2 may add PC support as soon as Summer 2024.

The listing reveals that the adapters are being manufactured in China.

We’d insert some speculation of PSVR 2 PC support being announced at the rumored PlayStation Showcase, but it’s increasingly looking like those rumors are rubbish.

AAA games make the briefest of appearances in the list of new PS5 and PS4 games for the week of May 20, 2024, but there are still plenty of other games if that one doesn’t take your fancy. That’d be XDefiant, Ubisoft’s free-to-play, first-person arena shooter. Other highlights include the much-delayed System Shock and turn-based tactics and strategy game Crown Wars: The Black Prince.

Once upon a time, May was one of the best months of the year to release AAA games. However, the short list of new PS5 and PS4 games due to be released during the week beginning May 6, 2024, is filled with indie games.
