About PlayStation
The PlayStation (often called the PS1 or PSX) was Sony's first home game console and a defining system of the fifth console generation. It was designed around affordable CD-ROM media, which allowed large games, full-motion video, and extensive audio compared with cartridge-based rivals.
Its hardware focused on strong 3D polygon rendering, which helped establish Sony as a major force in gaming and attracted many third-party publishers. The platform's library spans role-playing games, racing, fighting, survival horror, and platformers, and it is widely remembered for helping standardize CD-based console gaming.

Use the platform directory filters or search by title, genre, series, and first letter. Open a game detail page for its controls and compatibility status.
Can I play every PlayStation game in the browser?
No. Browser play is title-specific. A configured runtime is not the same as a dated compatibility test, so review the status shown on each game page.
