The analysis only considered terms directly related to PS5-compatible titles, measuring the estimated number of times each game's name was searched. The result allows us to identify trends in interest among Brazilian gamers, impacted by releases, updates, and promotional activities.
Minecraft is in the lead and Hogwarts Legacy is trending
Minecraft holds the top spot with 1.4 million searches. This number was boosted by the release of the native PS5 version, which attracted both new and returning players. Additionally, the live-action film adaptation, currently in its promotional phase, increased the game's visibility on social media and in the press.
Second place went to Hogwarts Legacy, which garnered 89,000 searches in March. The addition of the RPG to the PS Plus Extra and Deluxe plan catalogs broadened the title's reach, reinforcing its appeal among fans of the Harry Potter universe. This move also encouraged new players to discover the game.
Astro Bot, voted Game of the Year 2024, appeared with 48,000 searches. The update for the PS5 Pro, with new levels and special bots, rekindled public interest. This prominence demonstrates the game's strength among enthusiasts of platformers and immersive experiences.
With 46,000 searches, Grand Theft Auto V remains relevant, even more than a decade after its original release. The enhanced version for PS5, with graphical and technical improvements, continues to attract players and fuel comparisons with the previous PS4 edition.
Emerging market stocks round out the ranking
Monster Hunter Wilds registered 36,000 searches and continues to attract attention with new announcements. However, the title has received some criticism regarding the resolution in specific sections of the game, which may drop to 720p on PS5, according to the specialized website Adrenaline.
Another highlight was Split Fiction, with 33,000 searches. The game attracted attention for its noir style and interactive narrative, earning positive reviews on websites focused on geek culture. Its unique approach solidified its place among new releases that appeal to specific niches.
Closing out the ranking, Gran Turismo 7 garnered 29,000 searches. The only PS5 exclusive on the list, the simulator remains relevant with frequent updates and technical precision. The new features announced at the end of 2024 reinforced its position among the platform's top titles.
Immersion beyond the game drives the accessories market
The growth in demand for games is also reflected in the interest in accessories that enhance the gaming experience. Items such as gaming chairs, once restricted to streamers, are now common among gamers who value comfort and performance.
The search for monitors with high refresh rates, quality headsets, and ergonomic equipment is on the rise. According to a study by the consulting firm Newzoo, published in September 2024, 63% of Brazilian gamers invested in at least one gaming peripheral in the last year.
The trend shows that the public values not only the content of the games, but also the environment in which they play. Whether exploring pixelated worlds or facing technical challenges, the immersive experience is an essential part of the gamers' routine.
Thus, with successful titles and attention to detail off-screen, the Brazilian gaming market continues to expand. Search behavior reflects this dynamic, in which games, equipment, and media complement each other to offer complete experiences.
