We're fast approaching the end of 2024, if you can believe it — but this is always an exciting time for our industry, since everyone's focus shifts towards the all-important Game of the Year discussion.
Here on Push Square, we have a long history of extensive Game of the Year coverage, as we simply love to look back on the last 12 months and applaud the PlayStation games that left an impression.
As always, you'll get to hear all about our own picks for Game of the Year as we approach the holidays — but this time around, we want to involve the Push Square community more than ever before.
To help celebrate what has been a very busy year for PlayStation gaming, we're inviting all of our readers — including you! — to get in touch and actually write about their favourite PS5 game of 2024.
A selection of the best submissions will be included in the community's own Game of the Year feature article, which will be posted on the site for all to see.
Here's everything you need to know:
- Use our Contact Us page to submit your own Game of the Year piece
- Make sure the 'Reader Letters' subject is selected
- Make sure to include your name and email address (only your name will be published in the eventual article)
- In the Message box, simply tell us about your personal Game of the Year, and why you think it's so good
- Your submission must not exceed 150 words
- Your submission must be about one PS5 game that released in 2024 (remakes and remasters are fine)
- Submissions close at midnight (GMT) on Monday the 9th December
So, if you'd like to be part of Push Square's official Game of the Year coverage, follow the steps above, and share your passion for your favourite PS5 game of 2024.
Thanks in advance to everyone who takes part, and we look forward to reading about your Game of the Year!

If anyone's got any questions about this whole thing, let me know and I'll try to answer them.
This is such a cool feature this year!
Gonna be a challenge to limit my word count… I am a MASTER waffler.
Why Concord is my GoTY - by Herman Hulst
@ShogunRok can you edit my ramblings to make some sense?
Does Planet Zoo count? It’s not a new game but hadn’t been a ps5 game before meaning I’d never encountered it before
@carlos82 Haha, I can try. We'll make edits for typos and grammar, as long as they're obvious mistakes.
@Totheteeth Yep, as long as it released in 2024 for PS5, it counts — even if it was on other platforms before.
Oh this is a really cool addition for the GotY discussion, I really like it.
And luckily for me, Nine Sols is out on PS5 tomorrow, and I played it on PC back when it released, so I know what I'm writing about.
@ShogunRok it’s a bit silly to ask this right after my submission got sent but hey no harm in asking; is it ok if my submission message happens to name-drop more than one game? I feel I made it clear regardless what my GOTY game submission is but hey I love asking about pedantics and semantics hahaha.
In case I made a big goof, feel free to edit out the games that aren’t my goty pick haha.
Trying to keep it short and still ending up with 172 words. Time to edit... thank god I'm not a writer, I waffle too much.
EDIT: Got it to 149 but had to get rid of mentioning the music, what a cruel world.
@Yousef- Yeah that's fine, as long as you're picking just one of them as your GOTY!
Had to download an app to count words (I'm on mobile) but it was fun.
Anyone who remembers what I said all year will know my choice. 😂
I sent mine in. I'm really bad at articulating why I like something but I tried 😅
Unfortunately, I think 2024 was lukewarm year for console gaming, nothing really excited me or pushed the bar. I think I played more PS4 titles than PS5 this year. Nothing wrong with a nice calm year to catch up on some backlog though.
Just sent mine in! Hopefully it's below the 150 word mark lol. I tried to make it short and to the point. I'm excited to see everyone else's submissions, cheers!
@DonkeyFantasy why concord deserve a second chance (please help me)
