3 PS1 Games Are Re-Releasing on Modern Consoles in 2027

June 22, 2026 - 01:07

The latest Retrogames Showcase brought news that three PlayStation 1 era titles will be re-released on current hardware in 2027. While the exact lineup was not fully detailed during the presentation, the announcement has sparked interest among fans of classic gaming.

These re-releases are expected to arrive on platforms like PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox Series X|S. The ports will likely include quality-of-life improvements such as save state support, upscaled resolution, and optional CRT filters. Some of the games may also feature trophy or achievement support for the first time.

The three titles represent a mix of genres from the late 1990s library. One is a cult-favorite action game that originally struggled with sales but gained a strong following through word of mouth. Another is a lesser-known RPG that was only released in Japan until a fan translation appeared years later. The third is a racing game known for its unique art style and soundtrack.

No specific release dates or pricing have been announced yet. The publisher behind the ports has a history of handling retro re-releases, though they have not confirmed whether these will be individual downloads or part of a bundle.

For collectors and newcomers alike, these re-releases offer a chance to experience games that have been hard to access on modern hardware without emulation. More details are expected closer to 2027.
