Poll: Vote for Your PS5 Game of the Month (June 2026)
Push Square has announced its Game of the Month poll for June 2026, highlighting an unusually weak month for PlayStation 5 releases. The gaming publication reviewed only three PS5 games throughout June, with just one scoring above 5/10—a situation the outlet describes as unprecedented in its over a year of running these monthly polls.
The stark lack of both quantity and quality in PS5 releases during June suggests significant gaps in the platform’s content pipeline during mid-2026. With merely three games reviewed and subpar review scores across the board, the month stands out as particularly challenging compared to typical release calendars. The editorial team expressed surprise at the dearth of new titles and their overall quality, noting this represents an unusual low point for the platform.
This release schedule gap may reflect broader industry patterns, developer scheduling decisions, or development timelines that resulted in a content drought on PlayStation. Despite these challenging circumstances, Push Square is proceeding with its regular monthly voting tradition, inviting readers to cast their ballots for the best game from the limited selection released during the period. The weak showing underscores how significantly release schedules can vary month-to-month, even for major platforms like the PS5.
