‘Myst’ and ‘Riven are Coming to Playstation 5 and More Later this Month

Two classic video games are coming to the Playstation 5 and more for the very first time later this month.

Cyan Worlds is excited to announce that both Myst and Riven are coming to an array of consoles and platforms, allowing a new generation of gamers to experience their classic hits.

Myst is coming to the PlayStation 5 and the PlayStation VR2, while Riven will be coming to the PlayStation 5, PlayStation VR2, Xbox Series X|S, and the Microsoft Store. Both games will launch on Tuesday, May 19, 2026, at 9 AM PDT, across all platforms. Myst is already available on the Xbox Series X|S and Microsoft Store.

Myst invites players to a starkly beautiful island, eerily tinged with mystery and shrouded in intrigue. Players journey to Myst Island and other stunning, long-dormant locations – called “Ages”- and begin to unravel the mystery they have been thrust into. As players learn what happened on the island, they will find they’re playing a key role in an epic story whose ending has not yet been written.

In Riven, players travel to a beautiful and mysterious world on the verge of collapse. Explore this mysterious place, solve its puzzles, reveal its mysteries, make a daring rescue, and escape. Riven takes players on a journey through dense jungles, awe-inspiring caverns, and monolithic structures, where they will explore a world bent to the whims of a man who sees himself as a god, and where every corner will immerse you in an otherworldly adventure.
