Players must navigate the hostile environment of Arrakis, where sandstorms can alter the landscape and the ever-present threat of giant sandworms looms. Resource management is crucial, as water is scarce and control over spice—the most valuable resource in the universe—can determine power dynamics among players.

14. Fallout 76

• Developer: Bethesda Softworks
• Release Date: 2018
• Platform: PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One
• For Fans of Post-apocalyptic settings
• Is Fallout 76 cross-platform between Playstation and other platforms? No, Fallout 76 is not cross-platform.

Fallout 76 was bad when it launched in 2018. But now, several years later, it has made a comeback and deserves some attention. It’s not strictly an MMO, but since there are so few titles to pick from for PlayStation gamers, we decided to include it on the list as it does scratch that MMO itch.

The game includes Fallout series mechanics such as the VATS system remade for real-time combat and settlements. In the beginning, Fallout 76 did not have any NPCs but they were added with a 2020 update.

Players can work together to build bases, and yes, you can attack others’ bases. Speaking of PvP, the game has a battle royale mode called Nuclear Winter.

13. Tera

• Developer: Krafton
• Release Date: 2011
• Platform: PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and Series S
• For Fans of Action Combat
• Is Tera cross-platform between Playstation and other platforms? Yes, Tera is crossplay between Playstation and Xbox.

Tera is a free-to-play fantasy MMO with action combat. Players need to be quick on their feet and perform actions at certain times, especially when they’re fighting against BAMs, or Big-Ass Monsters as the game’s bosses are referred to. The official PC servers for Tera were shut down in 2022, but the console servers are still going and getting minor updates.

Seven races and 13 classes offer more than enough choices to create a personalized character. Leveling is fun and you will often lose yourself in the scenery which is just amazing. The game still looks pretty good for a 14-year-old MMO.

Tera has theme-park gameplay that features numerous quests, PvE activities, and PvP modes, but the main draw is the action combat which for a long time was touted as the best action combat in any MMO.

12. Trove

• Release Date: 2015
• Platform: PC, Mac, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One
• For Fans of Minecraft
• Is Trove cross-platform between Playstation and other platforms? No, Trove is not cross-platform.

Trove is a cute voxel-based sandbox MMO that came out in 2015 and it maintains itself as a popular game to this day, especially since it’s free-to-play and easy to get into.

The class roster includes funny choices such as Dino Tamer, Candy Barbarian, and Neon Ninja. This adventure game offers infinite realms made of destructible game blocks and you can imagine the fun of slashing and dashing through colorful cubes.

• Is Planetside 2 cross-platform between Playstation and other platforms? No, Planetside 2 is not cross-platform.

You wanted massive, you got massive. This free-to-play FPS MMO has a Guinness World Record under its belt for an epic battle counting 1158 combatants. In 2020, 1283 players took part in one battle breaking the record. And that’s not even close to what the game can do. PlanetSide 2 supports massive battles with up to 2,000 combatants.

A three-faction system allows players to customize their characters with faction-specific vehicles, weapons, and other items.

The optional subscription gives players more XP and resources and the game shop only sells cosmetic items.

• For Fans of Sci-Fi MMOs

The sequel to Bungie’s now-defunct console exclusive is a free-to-play MMOFPS with role-playing features and a catchy story.

The game features three playable classes and a progression system based on XP. Players have access to thousands of gear items that allow them to personalize their characters.

The story unfolds as players complete the main story quests. While it’s really not considered a true MMO, Destiny 2 does have massive player interaction. It has co-op multiplayer that allows characters to team up for quests and missions.

Story-driven quests crafted by well-known DC Comics writers take players from Metropolis to Gotham. On their journey, they will meet iconic DC characters such as Batman, Superman, The Joker, and many others. Some are friends, some are enemies. Speaking of friends, you should join a League to find players interested in doing content together.

8. Neverwinter

• Developer: Cryptic Entertainment
• Release Date: 2013
• Platform: PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One
• For Fans of Dungeons & Dragons
• Is Neverwinter cross-platform between Playstation and other platforms? No, Neverwinter is not cross-platform.

Neverwinter came out back in 2013 and is still holding up to a degree in today’s MMO market. The main draws are the fast-paced action combat and the Forgotten Realm campaign setting which is filled with familiar characters.

The game does have a few drawbacks like the in-game cash shop. The game’s recent expansions, called modules, are mostly recycled old content which has brought little value to the game as player counts, and the development budget for the game has dropped in recent years.

It’s still well worth checking out for players looking for fast-paced action in a setting that will be familiar to fans of other D&D video games, like Baldur’s Gate 3.

7. Warframe

The weapon selection is impressive. More than 3,000 items allow you to blast your enemies in diverse ways. The combat is fast-paced and engaging.

• Platform: PC, Mac, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One
• For Fans of Korean MMOs

Black Desert Online is renowned for its incredibly detailed graphics and engaging gameplay, provided you don’t mind a bit of a grind.

Set in a high-fantasy setting, BDO is known for its vast, seamless world, allowing for a truly open-world experience. The game’s dynamic weather system and day-night cycle add to the realism, affecting gameplay in various ways such as changing NPC behavior and opening up specific quests.

One of the standout features of BDO is its action-based combat system, which is more reminiscent of action games than traditional MMORPGs. This system requires precise control and active engagement, as players must aim their attacks, dodge, and counter-attack in real time.

There are also plenty of activities and mini-games in BDO if you want a break from the grind, from setting up trade routes to sailing and fishing.

5. Star Trek Online

• Developer: Cryptic Entertainment
• Release Date: 2010
• Platform: PC, Mac, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One
• For Fans of Sci-Fi MMOs
• Is STO cross-platform between Playstation and other platforms? No, Star Trek Online is not cross-platform.

For all the Star Trek fans out there, Star Trek Online is the perfect MMO. Not only does it let you explore the vastness of space, but it also features a deep and engaging storyline with plenty of lore to get lost in. Actors from the TV series will often make appearances as voice actors in the game.

Plus, with regular updates and expansions, there’s always something new to see and do. STO also has a decent free-to-play model that lets players enjoy most of the content without paying a dime.

4. Elder Scrolls Online

The Elder Scrolls series needs no introduction after successes like Morrowind, Skyrim, and Oblivion. The game is set in the world of Tamriel and features all of the lore and characters that fans of the Elder Scrolls series know and love.

The game features a large open world to explore, with plenty of side quests and activities to keep you busy. Familiar locations from previous Elder Scrolls titles like Skyrim and Morrowind are available for players to explore.

Since its release in 2014, the game has become bigger and better with regular updates and improvements. ESO has been dropping expansions each year together with DLCs and patches that add more content.

Two mega-servers, one for Europe and one for the USA, house the player base so there is no community separation.

Elder Scrolls Online doesn’t have a required monthly subscription, but you will need to pay for the game and its expansions.

3. Path of Exile / Path of Exile 2

• Developer: Grinding Gear Games
• Release Date: 2013
• Platform: PC, Mac, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One
• For Fans of ARPGs
• Is POE cross-platform? No, Path of Exile is not cross-platform.

Path of Exile is another game that isn’t really an MMO, but most players agree that it is so good that we think few will object that we placed it 3rd on the list of the best PlayStation MMOs. For an action RPG, the game still has a few key features that make it feel MMO-like. In towns you will meet other players, you can group up with your friends, and it has a massive market where you can trade with your fellow players.

Path of Exile is celebrated for its complex gameplay mechanics, deep customization, and engaging boss mechanics.

The game is set in the grim continent of Wraeclast, where players take on the role of Exiles struggling to survive in a hostile land. Path of Exile is notable for its expansive skill system, which allows players to finely tune their characters through a vast skill tree and skill gems that can be combined in countless ways to create unique playstyles.

Path of Exile 2 is currently available in early access, and while similar to the original, it stands out with updated graphics, new mechanics, and unique systems. It’s also an easier entry point into the series, as Path of Exile 1 might be a bit complex for newbies after years and years of updates and added content.

2. Throne and Liberty

• Developer: NCSOFT
• Release Date: 2024
• Platform: PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Series S
• For Fans of Korean MMOs
• Is Throne and Liberty cross-platform? Yes, it is crossplay between PC, Playstation and Xbox.

Throne and Liberty is a high-fantasy MMO from NCSoft. This game stands out with its interactive environment, where changing weather conditions directly impact gameplay, adding a realistic layer to the immersion.

The main draw, however, might be the large-scale PvP combat which has been inspired by Lineage II.

Throne and Liberty garnered critique before releasing in the West due to an emphasis on microtransactions, and a rigid combat system, so the release was pushed back to rework some of the game’s mechanics. After the official release though, the game has garnered mostly positive feedback and has turned into a decent modern MMO for both PvE and PvP players.

1. Final Fantasy XIV

• Developer: Square Enix
• Release Date: 2010
• Platform: PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and Series S
• For Fans of Anime MMOs
• Is Final Fantasy XIV cross-platform between Playstation and PC? Yes, FFXIV’s servers are shared between PC players and PlayStation players.

PlayStation gamers can rejoice, as one of the best MMOs is available on your console! Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn was originally released in 2010, but was relaunched in a much-improved state in August 2013.

Final Fantasy XIV is one of the best MMORPGs available. Period. This title has everything if you enjoy classic theme-park gameplay coupled with great features such as player housing and an extensive crafting system.

The game features fantastic graphics and an engaging story that will keep you occupied for hundreds of hours. For Final Fantasy fans playing the game is worth it for the story alone. In addition to the main story, there are side quests, dungeons, and raids to keep you busy.

One of the main appeals of FFXIV is that you can have all classes on one character, and switch between them as you like.

The game plays great with a controller. The only downside is the initial purchase fee and the monthly subscription, but you get a serious bang for your buck so it’s all worth it. The free trial lasts for the entire base game and the first two expansions up to level 70 if you are not ready to make the purchase just yet.

What do you think of our selection? Is there any other console MMO that should have been on this list? Let us know in the comments.
