PlayStation Game Randomizer

Not sure what PlayStation game you should play next? Have you ever wanted to let RNG decide your fate for your next platinum trophy? Or, are you looking for ideas on what games to include for your Alphabet Challenge? Try our PlayStation Game Randomizer tool!

Be as specific as you like, and we will give you one game out of 17,400 possible titles to play. May the odds be in your favor!

How to Use the PlayStation Game Randomizer

  1. Enter your desired quality from a scale of 0-5. If you’d like only games that are high quality, consider selecting a minimum score of 4.0.
  2. Enter your desired time investment. This is how long you want to spend completing the game’s platinum trophy.
  3. Enter your desired difficulty rating. Unknown games are titles that do not have enough information to determine the difficulty. They may be unpopular titles or they may be new.
  4. Enter your desired trophy rarity, ranging from common to ultra rare.
  5. If you’re trying to do the Alphabet Challenge, enter your desired letter.
    • The Alphabet Challenge is where you try to get a platinum trophy for a game representing every letter of the alphabet.
  6. You can also filter based on what PlayStation console you own. This includes PlayStation VR headsets. Note that only consoles that released after the implementation of trophies are included.
  7. Pick whatever genre you’d like to play. If you want to keep the results purely random, leave the option on “Any.”
  8. If you’d like to only consider games from the PlayStation Plus catalog of titles, please select the appropriate checkboxes.
  9. You can choose whether or not to include potential shovelware titles by selecting the appropriate checkbox.
  10. Press the “Randomize” button and see your results!
    • If the randomizer doesn’t return a game, you may have entered impossible conditions. Note that the more specific you are in your selections, the fewer options there will be to randomize.

Developer Notes

  1. Updated June 2026.
  2. More than 17,400 games are included in the PlayStation Game Randomizer tool. If you exclude flagged shovelware titles, that number becomes 13,800 games.
  3. If you’d like a 100% random game, leave all of the default settings.
  4. Efforts have been made to remove all duplicate region, platform, and version stacks. This helps to prevent any bias toward games with many different releases.
  5. The data was compared against PSN Profiles’ list of unobtainable platinum trophies and Delisted Games’ list of extinct titles. Any flagged titles were removed from the list.
    • 1,500 games with unobtainable platinum trophies were removed.
    • 280 delisted titles were removed.
  6. The dataset was filtered to flag obvious “shovelware” titles. Generally, this means any games that can be completed in 30 minutes or less and/or have a greater than 90% completion rate.
    • 3,600 games were flagged in this step.
  7. Many games do not have readily available information for time to completion or a quality rating. As a result, the more specific you are in your request, the fewer games will be returned by the tool.
  8. The Alphabet Challenge filter looks past any articles (a/an/the) in game titles.
    • For example, “The Last of Us Remastered” would be returned under L.
  9. Rarity is determined based on player completion percentages. Note that ultra-rare platinum trophies must have been earned by at least one person. The tiers are outlined as below:
    • Impossible / Not Yet Earned: 0%
    • Ultra Rare: 0-5%
    • Very Rare: 5-10%
    • Rare: 10-20%
    • Uncommon: 20-50%
    • Common: 50-100%
  10. Note that the tool excludes games without trophy sets, such as many of the classic titles on the Premium subscription tier of PlayStation Plus.
  11. In October 2024, functionality to only return games from the PlayStation Plus catalog of titles was added to the tool. This does not include any of the free games available for a limited time every month, since many players might not have had an active subscription when older games were offered.
  12. In November 2025, functionality to filter in/out VR games was added to the tool. There are currently 200 PSVR and 390 PSVR2 titles included in the database. This option has since been folded into the April 2026 console update.
  13. In February 2026, the tool’s UI was revisited and improved with a focus on transparency and fun. The PlayStation Game Randomizer now tells you how many games were considered with your selected settings. It also shows a brief animation to emphasize the randomization in progress.
  14. In April 2026, the tool was revised to include filter options for console and genre. A clear filters button was added, and the aesthetics of the results card were also improved to be more visually appealing. Genre data was pulled from Moby Games and modified for conciseness and accuracy.
    • There are significant differences in how game titles are recorded across various video game databases, making perfect matching impossible. 200 games were manually adjusted to ensure that most large, known games are accounted for.
    • Cross-platform functionality has been added. Games can now be returned under any console they have been released on.
  15. In June 2026, the tool received a significant overhaul on both the frontend and backend. Going forward, game data will be aggregated from a combination of legacy sources and PlatPrices. The tool itself now returns game art and links to price history, the PlayStation store, and trophy lists when available. Users may also now choose whether or not to hide potential shovelware titles themselves rather than have such games removed by default. In addition, the ability to filter by difficulty has been added.

      Hi Lemeaur, the Randomizer does include PSVR2 games.

      Your comment raises a great point, though. I’ll look into adding a toggle setting for VR games when we next update in November so players can include/exclude these titles as they wish. Thank you!
