The past month was a true celebration for gaming enthusiasts. Which title from the recent releases captured your imagination? Among the standout new entries, we had Lost Records: Bloom & Rage – Tape 1, Monster Hunter Wilds, and Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii.
Curious about how it all works? At the conclusion of each month, the PlayStation Blog hosts a poll inviting you to cast your vote for the standout game of that period. Once the voting wraps up, we meticulously count the votes and reveal the champion on our social media channels and the PlayStation.Blog.
Wondering about the voting criteria? That’s entirely in your hands! Imagine if you could only persuade a friend to pick up one of the latest releases from that month—which one would it be? Keep in mind that while re-released games don’t make the cut, remakes do. We classify remakes as substantial, large-scale rebuilds, much like Resident Evil 4 (2023) and the Final Fantasy VII Remake.
So, how do we select the nominees? The editorial team at PlayStation Blog curates a list of the month’s most significant releases, which then serves as the basis for the poll.
