Introduction
The start of a new year gives you the opportunity to set some great goals to work towards for the coming year.
I shared with you my gaming goals for 2020 in a recent post which you can find here: Gaming Goals 2020 – What’s in store for Gamercreatrix
One of the most exciting goals that I shared with you was the My PlayStation Hits challenge.
I have done some gaming challenges before but nothing to this scale, so I’m super excited to share this with you.

My PlayStation Hits Gaming Goal
As 2020 will be the last year before the next gen PS5 console, I thought it would be a great idea to celebrate the games of the PS4. With that in mind I thought about the games that epitomize that console, and the PlayStation Hits games immediately came to mind.
With that in mind, I am challenging myself to play through all of the games in the PlayStation Hits collection in 2020. Exciting right!?
What Is PlayStation Hits?
For those of you that aren’t familiar with PlayStation Hits, these are a range of games that have been curated by PlayStation. This means that these games are the best of the best when it comes to PlayStation. What’s more these games are sold at a reduced price.
I’m going to be playing through the list of PlayStation Hits games in the EU collection which I have gathered from my research is slightly different in each region.
Here is a link to the list for reference: PlayStation Hits List
Right now looking at this list, there are a total of 44 games in the PlayStation Hits library (EU) so this should definitely be an interesting challenge to undertake.
Starting Point
Fortunately for me, I’ve already completed the following games:
- Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2
- Horizon Zero Dawn
- Ratchet And Clank
As well as this, I’ve already completed the first game in the Uncharted: Nathan Drake Collection series.
So they are already checked off the list which definitely puts me at an advantage going into this challenge.
PlayStation Hits Stats
In advance of starting this challenge, I did some research and put together some stats that would help me mentally prepare. Let’s have a look at these right now.
As mentioned, the list I’m working from is the list of PlayStation Hits games in the EU region.
- Total Number Of Games – 44
- Already Completed Games – 3
- Games Left to Complete – 41
- Estimated Time To Beat All Games – 746 Hours
- To get this estimate I checked all of the games against HowLongToBeat.com to tot up the time to beat the story of each game.
- Games I Already Own (Physical or Digital) – 25
- Games I Still Need To Get – 19
How you can join in with me
One of the big reasons for setting this gaming goal is to encourage interaction from all of you lovely people!
I’ll be playing through each game and sharing updates with you along the way of how I’m getting on.
I am also hoping to make this as engaging an experience as possible, so I look forward to having you join along with me using the hashtag #myplaystationhits.
Use this hashtag on Instagram and Twitter to share your gaming screenshots & photos of playing these games and I’ll share the best updates once per month on my YouTube Channel and Podcast.
