GTA 6 Tops PS Store Most-Wanted List, Phantom Blade Zero Close Behind
A third-party tracker ranks the most anticipated games on PlayStation over the past week, with GTA 6 leading and Phantom Blade Zero the soonest to launch.
Ever wonder what PlayStation players are actually hyped for right now? A third-party tracking site called PS Store DB just dropped its "most anticipated games of the past 7 days" list, and the top five is a pretty wild mix.
Leading the pack is none other than GTA 6, which should surprise absolutely no one. Right behind it sits Phantom Blade Zero, followed by Forza Horizon 6 in third. Rounding out the top five are God of War: Laufey and Metro 2039. Yeah, that's a lineup.
Now, before you take this as gospel, here's the fine print: the list is compiled from data across 55 PlayStation stores worldwide over the past week. It's not an official Sony chart, and it doesn't directly translate to pre-orders or sales. What it does show is short-term buzz—how much PlayStation players are talking about and looking up these games.
Out of the top five, Phantom Blade Zero is the one you'll actually be able to play soonest. It's locked in for an October 29 launch on PS5 and PC. According to earlier estimates from Alinea Analytics, the game has racked up around 500,000 pre-orders on Steam, translating to roughly $24 million in gross revenue. It's also sitting at 2.5 million wishlists on Steam—not too shabby for a stylish action title.
So what does this mean for you? If you're a PS5 owner, the next few months are looking stacked. Whether you're into open-world crime epics, lightning-fast swordplay, racing, or moody post-apocalyptic vibes, there's something on this list with your name on it. And with Phantom Blade Zero just around the corner, the hype train is only going to pick up speed.
Which of these are you most excited to get your hands on? Drop a comment and let us know—we're betting GTA 6 and Phantom Blade Zero are gonna dominate the conversation.
