For Disney enthusiasts who adore life sims like Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley, Disney Dreamlight Valley is a dream come true. You step into the shoes of a custom avatar tasked with restoring the titular land to its former glory, which has been ravaged by the Forgetting—a mysterious event causing Disney characters to lose their memories and flee to their homeworlds due to the menacing Night Thorns.

Rebuilding Dreamlight Valley is no small feat; it requires dedication and resources, but the journey allows you to befriend every Disney character you encounter, including the villains. It's a laid-back experience perfect for family entertainment right from your living room couch.

Initially released on the PS4, Kingdom Hearts 3 has been beautifully optimized for the PS5, with enhanced graphics that outshine its predecessors. The game continues Sora's journey alongside Donald and Goofy to reclaim his Power of Waking, while Riku and King Mickey seek out Aqua, Terra, and Ventus, and Kairi and Lea train to become Keyblade wielders—all in preparation for their ultimate showdown with Master Xehanort.

Kingdom Hearts 3 introduces new gameplay mechanics such as Attraction Flow and Athletic Flow, and features worlds inspired by Toy Story, Monsters Inc., Big Hero 6, Tangled, and Frozen, including the iconic "Let It Go" cutscene. The Re:Mind expansion further enriches the narrative and challenges players with battles against data versions of Organization XIII members and the enigmatic Yozora. It's a stellar addition to the Kingdom Hearts series, keeping fans eager for Kingdom Hearts 4.

Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, which clinched a Grammy for Best Score Soundtrack for Video Games and Other Interactive Media, is widely regarded as one of the finest Star Wars games ever crafted.

Customize Cal's appearance, wield a Kylo Ren-inspired Lightsaber with a unique stance, and navigate through meticulously designed levels teeming with NPCs. With its immersive world and a captivating soundtrack, Jedi: Survivor delivers an unforgettable Star Wars experience.

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

Although Sony holds the reins on Spider-Man, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 from Insomniac Games earns its place on this list. This PS5-exclusive title follows Peter Parker and Miles Morales as they juggle their personal lives and superhero responsibilities amid new threats like Kraven the Hunter and the Venom symbiote, which transforms Parker into a darker version of himself, echoing Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man 3.

Picking up from Spider-Man: Miles Morales, the game introduces new web-based gadgets and tailored Spidey suits for both heroes, including the iconic Venom suit for Peter. With over 2.5 million copies sold within the first 24 hours and a Wheaties cereal promotion, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is hailed as the best Spider-Man game to date.

Disney Speedstorm

For racing enthusiasts, Disney Speedstorm offers a thrilling experience where you can race against a vast array of Disney characters. This free-to-play PS5 game mirrors the gameplay of Mario Kart but with racetracks themed around the worlds of each racer's films and franchises, including Mickey and Friends, Mulan, Monsters Inc., Beauty and the Beast, Frozen, and Pirates of the Caribbean. Minor characters serve as Crew Members, boosting the racers' stats.

While Disney Speedstorm captures the essence of a great crossover racing game, it includes gacha-style microtransactions, a feature absent in other racing titles like Sonic and Sega All-Stars Racing and Mario Kart 8. Imagine racing as Mulan, Sulley, Jack Sparrow, or Elsa against Mickey Mouse!
