PlayStation Blog’s November poll is live – how voting works

Table of Content

PlayStation Blog is running its monthly community poll for November, inviting players to spotlight the month’s standout new releases. The post highlights a busy slate and references titles such as Call of Duty: Black Ops 7, Lumines Arise and Where Winds Meet as part of the month’s conversation. The voting format and rules remain consistent with prior months. Re-releases are not eligible, but remakes are included under specific criteria. Results will be revealed across PlayStation’s official channels after voting closes.

How the monthly poll works

The PlayStation Blog poll goes live at the end of each month and focuses on games that debuted during that period. Once the poll closes, the editorial team tallies community votes and announces the winner on PlayStation Blog and PlayStation social channels. The poll for November is available at: https://poll.fm/16345157

Voting criteria and eligibility

• Your criteria – voters decide what “best” means, framed as the one new release they would recommend that month.
• New releases only – re-released games do not qualify.
• Remakes are eligible – defined as ambitious, larger-scale rebuilds (the blog cites Resident Evil 4 (2023) and Final Fantasy VII Remake as examples of remakes).

How nominees are chosen

The PlayStation Blog editorial team curates a list of the month’s notable titles and uses it to seed the poll. This list is intended to reflect the most noteworthy releases across the PlayStation ecosystem during the period.
