Vote Now for June 2026's Best New Game on PlayStation Blog

Players can now cast their votes for the best new game released in June 2026 on the PlayStation Blog. This monthly initiative invites gamers to reflect on their favorite titles from the previous month, with a focus on the most notable releases.

June saw a variety of exciting new games, including The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales, Dead or Alive 6 Last Round, and NBA The Run. Each of these titles brought unique experiences to players, spanning genres from fighting to sports and adventure.

The voting process is straightforward. At the end of each month, the PlayStation Blog opens a poll where players can select their favorite new game. Once the voting period concludes, the votes are tallied, and the winner is announced across PlayStation's social channels and the PlayStation Blog.

Players are encouraged to consider their recommendations carefully. The voting criteria are based on personal preference—if you could only recommend one new release from June to a friend, which would it be? It's important to note that re-released games do not qualify for the poll, although remakes are eligible. The definition of a remake includes ambitious, larger-scale rebuilds, such as Resident Evil 4 (2023) and Final Fantasy VII Remake.

The nominees for the poll are determined by the PlayStation Blog editorial team, who compile a list of the month’s most noteworthy releases to seed the poll. This ensures that players are voting on the most significant and impactful games of the month.

Participating in the Players’ Choice poll not only allows gamers to express their opinions but also helps highlight the diverse range of games available on PlayStation platforms. This initiative fosters community engagement and encourages players to explore new titles they may have missed.
