Player’s Choice: Participate in the Monthly Vote

How the Voting Process Works

Each month, PlayStation Blog initiates a poll, offering the PlayStation community the opportunity to cast their votes for their favorite new game release from that period. Once the voting period concludes, the votes are tallied, and the winning title is announced across PlayStation’s social media platforms and on PlayStation.Blog.

Determining the Best New Game: Your Criteria

The selection criteria rest entirely in the hands of the players! Consider which single new release you would enthusiastically recommend to a fellow gamer from the past month. This personal recommendation should guide your vote. It is important to note that re-releases are not eligible for consideration. However, remakes, defined as substantial and extensive rebuilds – exemplified by titles like Resident Evil 4 (2023) and Final Fantasy VII Remake – are indeed qualified nominees.

Nominee Selection: Curated by PlayStation Blog

The PlayStation Blog editorial team undertakes the responsibility of compiling a curated list of the most noteworthy game releases from each month. This list serves as the foundation for the monthly Player’s Choice poll, ensuring that the voting options represent the standout titles.
