As is usually the case every year, March was a super busy month for new game releases. The PS5’s schedule was pretty much packed from beginning to end, and there were some very heavy hitters in the mix.<\/p>\n

One of 2026’s most anticipated titles stole most of the headlines last month. We are, of course, referring to Crimson Desert<\/a>, which has proven to be a massively popular open world outing. You’d be mad to think that it’s not the frontrunner for this Game of the Month award.<\/p>\n

But we’ve also got to mention Marathon<\/a>, which offered a completely different proposition to Pearl Abyss’ fantasy life sim. Bungie’s hardcore, technical shooter hasn’t done insane numbers, but it seems to be utterly beloved by those who’ve got stuck in.<\/p>\n

Other March highlights included the largely fantastic Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection<\/a>, which we think is the best entry in Capcom’s turn-based RPG series yet.<\/p>\n

Then there’s Screamer<\/a>, a flashy arcade racer with a fairly unique emphasis on story and characters, and South of Midnight<\/a>, the former Xbox console exclusive that’s just a delight to behold.<\/p>\n

That’s some impressive variety, isn’t it?<\/p>\n

But before we dive into the actual vote, let’s quickly recap all of our Game of the Month winners for 2026 so far:<\/p>\n

As always, you’ll help decide which game joins them. Vote for your favourite PS5 title of March in our poll, and then explain your choice in the comments section below.<\/p>\n

Voting closes on Monday the 6th April 2026, at 00:00 BST.<\/p>\n
