There are hundreds and thousands of new games released across each platform on a yearly basis. Of course, only a small handful of those titles will become notable enough to work their way into the top charts. Some have continued to exceed expectations with overwhelming download numbers and hours of playtime taking place. Sony has now officially revealed their top 10 most downloaded games on PlayStation throughout 2025, both in the NA and EU regions.
Top 10 Most Downloaded Games on PlayStation in 2025, Revealed By Sony
Although the lists of top 10 games are slightly different between the US/Canada and EU region lists, it’s safe to say there is no shortage of notable titles. From sports games to RPG adventures, or FPS games with PvE, PvP, and looter-shooter elements, there’s no denying the success of the ten titles each region has crowned the most downloaded games of last year.
Without further ado, here is the complete list for both PS4 and PS5 titles, separated by region:
Most Downloaded PS4 Games in 2025
Most Downloaded PS5 Games in 2025
Many of the most downloaded PS5 games for the year are considered to be some of the top titles to emerge in 2025. Specifically, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is no shocker, considering the overwhelming success it proved at the 2025 Game Awards. Other than that, notable titles across various genres include NBA 2K26, ARC Raiders, Ghost of Yotei, and Assassin’s Creed: Shadows.
Obviously, PS4 games aren’t able to have the same access to new releases as the more modern PS5 supports. Because of this, the top downloads for PS4 in 2025 involve quite a few non-2025 releases. However, that does not stop them from being any less notable, as some of the games included are previous GOTY contenders and top fan-favorite picks from previous release years. Examples include It Takes Two, Gang Beats, Stardew Valley, A Way Out, The Forest, and Minecraft.
With 2025 out of the way, 2026 is shaping up to be a promising year for new releases, with January already making a strong start.
