Best FPS Games on PS5

Best PS5 FPS Games Guide 1

What are the best FPS games on PS5? Well, why don’t you tell us? In this evolving list, it’s down to the Push Square community to decide PlayStation 5’s top shooters.

The first-person shooter genre — FPS for short — has been around for decades, and is as popular today as it’s ever been, if not more so. Popularised by classics like DOOM, Quake, and Wolfenstein, FPS games have come an extremely long way over the years, but one simple thing unites them all — it’s just plain fun to shoot stuff.

There’s a wide range of experiences to be had, from the true-to-life realism of Hell Let Loose to the bombastic lunacy of Far Cry 6. Many FPS titles blend the genre with others; for example, games like Destiny 2 and Borderlands 3 combine the action with RPG elements. While most shooters are aimed at a mature audience by their very nature, there’s a lot of variety within that.

On PS5, there are already plenty of options for those who enjoy wielding heavy weaponry and unloading lead into bad guys. The following list represents the best FPS games on PS5, but it’s not up to us — the running order is entirely decided by you. By rating any FPS titles on the console, you’ll be having a direct impact on this page. Use the search bar below to find a game, then leave a rating to influence this list.
