After a relatively quiet start to 2026, the PlayStation release calendar is finally picking up momentum. The second week of February is shaping up to be particularly busy, with a wide mix of titles preparing to hit both PS5 and PS4; from horror adventures to strategy RPGs and fast-paced action games.
According to a recently published release roundup, more than 11 games are scheduled to launch during the February 9-15 window. Among the most notable standouts are Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties, which continues Kazuma Kiryu’s story in a rebuilt version of the classic, and Reanimal, a cooperative horror experience from the creators behind the Little Nightmares series.
Here are the confirmed releases for the week:
Playstation games launching on February 2026
Crisol: Theatre of Idols (PS5) – February 10
This first-person horror action title takes place in a distorted version of Spain known as Hispania. Players control Gabriel, a soldier who channels his own blood as a weapon while exploring the haunted island of Tormentosa. Because using blood also weakens him, each encounter becomes a careful trade-off between offense and staying alive.
Romeo Is a Dead Man (PS5) – February 11
Set in a fractured sci-fi universe, the game follows Romeo Stargazer, who is brought back from the brink of death through experimental technology. Now working as an agent tasked with tracking dangerous threats across space and time, Romeo relies on both melee weapons and guns in high-energy battles while searching for someone important from his past.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect X (PS5) – February 12
This roguelite action game expands the BlazBlue universe with rapid combat and repeatable runs that evolve each time you play. Players move through unstable realities, strengthen their fighters with new abilities, and adapt their strategies as challenges constantly change.
ChromaGun 2: Dye Hard (PS5) – February 12
A first-person puzzle shooter built around color mechanics. Using a specialized paint device, players alter surfaces, trigger systems, and solve environmental challenges. The sequel leans into more complex puzzles, unpredictable hazards, and a deeper look at the technology behind its strange test facilities.
Disciples: Domination (PS5) – February 12
A dark fantasy strategy game that blends turn-based combat with kingdom management. Players lead a faction in a war-torn world, recruit powerful heroes, and make decisions that shape both the battlefield and the political balance of the realm. Tactical planning matters just as much as raw strength, especially when every loss can slow your expansion.
Pure Pool Pro (PS5) – February 12
Designed for players who want a more authentic billiards experience, this simulation focuses on realistic physics, precise shot control, and competitive play. Whether practicing solo or facing skilled opponents, the game aims to recreate the calm but high-pressure atmosphere of professional pool.
RIDE 6 (PS5) – February 12
The latest entry in the motorcycle racing series pushes for greater realism with detailed bike models, responsive handling, and tracks inspired by real-world locations. Career progression, customization options, and dynamic race conditions encourage players to fine-tune both their machines and riding style to stay ahead of the pack.
Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties (PS5, PS4) – February 12
This package brings a rebuilt version of Yakuza 3 alongside an additional story chapter titled Dark Ties. Players once again follow Kazuma Kiryu as he is pulled back into the criminal underworld, balancing intense street combat with a narrative full of loyalty, betrayal, and personal sacrifice. The updated release aims to modernize the experience while preserving the dramatic tone the series is known for.
High on Life 2 (PS5) – February 13
This sequel continues the series’ signature mix of chaotic humor and fast-paced shooting. Players once again hunt alien targets with unconventional, talkative weapons while traveling across bizarre worlds packed with absurd characters. Expect louder jokes, stranger environments, and combat that leans even further into over-the-top action.
Reanimal (PS5) – February 13
A cinematic horror adventure centered on two siblings trying to escape a nightmarish island filled with distorted creatures. The game emphasizes tension over direct combat, encouraging players to stay hidden, solve environmental obstacles, and rely on cooperation to survive. Its unsettling art direction and sound design aim to keep players in a constant state of unease.
Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma (PS5) – February 13
Blending life simulation with action RPG mechanics, this entry transports the series to the eastern land of Azuma. Players cultivate farms, rebuild communities, and form relationships while also defending the region from spreading corruption. Exploration, crafting, and real-time battles work together to create a slower, character-driven adventure that balances daily life with heroic duties.
The lineup reflects strong genre diversity. Players interested in dark fantasy strategy, roguelite combat, puzzle-solving mechanics, racing simulations, and narrative-driven adventures will all find something worth watching. This variety suggests publishers are aiming to appeal to multiple audiences at once rather than relying on a single blockbuster.
Another interesting takeaway is the continued reliance on established franchises and sequels. Revived entries and follow-ups often signal confidence from publishers, especially early in the year when release schedules begin to accelerate. If this week is any indication, PlayStation owners may be heading into a far more crowded release season than January suggested.
