Best Cozy PS5 Games of 2024

It is honestly a shame that there aren’t more new cozy games for PS4 and PS5 owners to enjoy. 2024 was one of the lighter years for high-quality cozy games on the PlayStation side of consoles. But if you are looking for a more relaxing, peaceful, and still enjoyable gaming experience, here are some of the best cozy games of 2024 on PS5.

Infinity Nikki

When it comes to the highest level of potential for how a cozy game can look and feel, there is no comparison to Infinity Nikki. This open world title has stunning 3D visuals with easily the most detailed clothing in gaming history. Don’t let its format fool you, though, this is a cozy game through and through, with a heavy focus on exploration, puzzles, and dressing up your character.

Garden Life

Sim games are all the rage these days and Garden Life puts in charge of your own garden. If you like farming games, this one has some of the most detailed and deep plant-growing mechanics I’ve ever seen. It also has a first-person perspective, so it feels quite different from the usual top-down farming experiences.

Botany Manor

This is one-part farming sim in a way where players grow plants and another part puzzle walking simulator. This story-driven experience is for those who love solving problems to move on to the next area. If you are a fan of games like The Witness but want a colorful, cozy game take on it, this is one to check out.

Mythwrecked: Ambrosia Island

In Mythwrecked, players wash up on a deserted island alongside others and try to survive. There is quite a bit of simplicity and lack of depth to this 3D cozy game, but I still appreciate the aspects of getting to know the other characters. Furthermore, the heavy hand of Greek mythology throughout the lore and setting make this also a unique point in the cozy game category.
