Anime games on PS5 aren’t just reboots of shows. Some of them go hard—visually, mechanically, emotionally. If you're done watching One Piece, Naruto, Dragon Ball, and Demon Slayer for the 47th time and actually want to be in the middle of the story, you’re in the right place. The PlayStation 5 lineup includes titles that aren’t half-baked adaptations. These are games with proper combat systems, full arcs, and playable characters that go beyond cutscene cameos. Every title below delivers either an upgraded legacy, a ridiculous roster, or pure fanservice in the best way possible. And yes, they’re all playable right now.
One Piece Odyssey gives you a full RPG story with Monkey D. Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates
One Piece Odyssey was built for the franchise’s 25th anniversary and it shows. This isn’t just another arena fighter or gacha throwaway. It’s a turn-based RPG where you control Monkey D. Luffy and the entire Straw Hat crew as they end up stranded on a tropical island. Everyone gets split up, and your goal is to bring them back together while handling bosses, weather threats, and enemies along the way.
Eiichiro Oda actually created the story, which means the dialogues and arcs feel authentic. Every character has their own abilities that affect combat directly. Nami, Zoro, Usopp, Robin—they’re not just side buffs. If you care about the anime, this feels like lost canon. If you don’t, it’s still a fully functional RPG with a real party system and exploration mechanics.
Naruto X Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections is pure chaos with 130 characters and the full arc
If you ever wanted to fight as Madara Uchiha one minute and Boruto Uzumaki the next, Naruto X Boruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections has you covered. This is the most complete version of the Storm series to date. The game retells the entire Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha storyline from the Chunin Exams through the Fourth Great Ninja War, and then jumps to an original Boruto plot made just for this game.
The playable roster includes over 130 characters, which is just ridiculous. Everyone from Itachi Uchiha to Kaguya Ōtsutsuki is here. The combat is faster and cleaner than earlier titles and supports both offline and online modes. If you’ve ever rage quit after a jutsu clash, good news—this one feels more balanced. It’s not just flashy; it’s smart underneath the spectacle.
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Hinokami Chronicles focuses on cinematic combat and emotional arcs
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Hinokami Chronicles stays loyal to the source material visually and narratively. You play as Tanjiro Kamado, trying to reverse the demon transformation of his sister Nezuko Kamado. The game follows all major anime arcs and plays like a mix between a brawler and an interactive movie.
“Play solo, taking up the sword of Tanjiro against the demon threat, or battle online and locally in 2v2 versus brawls using any combination of characters.”
Fights are fluid and the animation hits hard—literally and emotionally. Characters have special moves lifted frame-by-frame from the show. If you want an anime game that isn’t trying to be a Soulslike or a collectible card trap, this is it. It delivers story and combat equally.
Persona 3 Reload is not just nostalgia, it’s a polished remake with turn-based style and social sim depth
Persona 3 Reload is a full rebuild of the original Persona 3 released back in 2006. You play as a new high school student who discovers a hidden time slot called the Dark Hour where monsters known as Shadows roam. You join a group called SEES and take part in nightly battles—all while attending school and maintaining your social life during the day.
“Build your ideal SEES team, select your mission and dive into the action.”
The game blends dungeon crawling, relationship building, and turn-based combat. If you're into Persona 5 Royal, this game is the groundwork. The PS5 version has clean UI, faster loading, redone cutscenes, and better controls. There’s nothing casual about it—if you’re in, you’re in deep.
Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero brings back Budokai Tenkaichi insanity with full planet-breaking fights
Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero is not subtle. It’s a direct revival of the Budokai Tenkaichi legacy, and that means free-flying, fast-hitting, ki-blasting mayhem with no restraint. The game drops on PlayStation 5 on October 10, 2024.
“Take control of the strongest fighters to have ever appeared in Dragon Ball using gameplay from the legendary Budokai Tenkaichi series.”
The roster is stacked. Environments explode. Combat physics are dramatic. If you want to see Goku punch Frieza through a mountain and then throw a Spirit Bomb, this game exists to scratch that itch. Everything is over-the-top and that's exactly the point. The engine supports environmental damage, aerial knockbacks, and ultimate moves that shift the battlefield. This one is for long-time fans and new players who want full chaos in 60 FPS.
