Ready for some good news/bad news? The bad news is there aren't a ton of PlayStation 5 escape room games, but the good news is that all of them exist have been curated right here for you. Being very strict in defining this subgenre of puzzle games, these are the best PS5 escape room games that are meant to replicate the physical experience of actually going to your local escape room and solving the puzzles you're presented with.

In terms of a recently published escape room game on PS5, Escape Academy is your best bet. The 2022 release not only features great escape room puzzles but also a fun hub world you can navigate, choosing to do the escape rooms in your preferred order. Another even more recent one is How 2 Escape, although it's not as positively reviewed. However, the rankings here are determined by your votes, so if you enjoyed it you should vote it up, despite what game journalists might have said about it.
