Cast Your Vote for the Best New Game of February 2025 – PlayStation.Blog

Video games were certainly in the spotlight last month, with a collection of titles that tugged at the heartstrings of gamers everywhere. So, which one captured yours? Among the prominent new releases were Lost Records: Bloom & Rage – Tape 1, Monster Hunter Wilds, and the intriguing Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii.

Here’s how you can participate: at the end of each month, PlayStation Blog opens up a poll inviting players to cast their votes for the month’s standout game. Once voting wraps up, the results are tallied, and the winner is announced across our social media platforms and on PlayStation.Blog.

As for how to choose your favorite? That’s completely in your hands! Consider which new release you would urge a friend to dive into. Keep in mind, while re-released games don’t make the cut, remakes do qualify. We categorize remakes as comprehensive, large-scale overhauls like the revamped Resident Evil 4 (2023) and the updated Final Fantasy VII Remake.

Wondering how the nominees are picked? The editorial crew at PlayStation Blog carefully selects the month’s most noteworthy games and uses their list to seed the poll.
