Well, we’ve done it. For the first time in Push Square history, we had an official Game of the Month for every single month of 2025.
Through the magic of public polls, we had our loyal readers determine the best PS5 game of each month, and we must admit that you lot have pretty good taste.
Just to tie a neat little bow on the entire Game of the Month campaign, we’ve decided to throw this recap feature together, as a reminder of all our worthy winners.
Here’s the full list of Game of the Month winners for 2025, along with the number and percentage of votes that they earned in their respective polls:
- January: Ninja Gaiden 2 Black (108 votes, 20%)
- February: Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 (394 votes, 45%)
- March: Assassin’s Creed Shadows (275 votes, 39%)
- April: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (745 votes, 54%)
- May: DOOM: The Dark Ages (262 votes, 33%)
- June: Death Stranding 2: On the Beach (545 votes, 72%)
- July: Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound (142 votes, 23%)
- August: Metal Gear Solid Delta (222 votes, 28%)
- September: Silent Hill F (356 votes, 26%)
- October: Ghost of Yotei (775 votes, 57%)
- November: Dispatch (410 votes, 50%)
- December: Terminator 2D: No Fate (178 votes, 30%)
It’s no surprise to see most of our Game of the Year contenders scattered throughout this list; the likes of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and Ghost of Yotei were obviously very popular picks.
But it’s also nice to see some less popular releases get some recognition. For example, Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound was always destined to be buried beneath heavier hitters during Game of the Year conversations — despite being a fantastic title.
So, what do you make of our Game of the Month winners, in hindsight? Did our readers get most of them right, or are there any blatant omissions? Look forward to another year of hotly contested polls in the comments section below.
