PlayStation's Share of the Week rounds up players' best in-game vistas
No big reveal here, just Sony's regular community photo mode roundup - but it's a decent reminder of what's quietly good on PS5 right now.
What’s actually happened
Sony has published its latest Share of the Week roundup on the PlayStation Blog, a recurring community feature where players submit screenshots on social media using the hashtags #PSshare and #PSBlog. This week’s theme was “Breathtaking Views,” and Sony’s Kristen Zitani has picked out six standout shots from players across a mix of games.
The selected images come from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Elden Ring, Ghost of Yōtei, The Last of Us Part II, Horizon Forbidden West and Dragon Age: The Veilguard. There’s a cherry blossom altar in Ghost of Yōtei, a glowing forest scene from The Veilguard, and a sunset over a farm in The Last of Us Part II, among others credited to individual PSN or social handles.
Is there anything more to this
Not really, and that’s fine. This is a long-running, low-stakes community engagement post rather than a product announcement, patch, or piece of hardware news. There’s no release date, price, or platform detail to fact-check because none of that is being claimed. It’s simply Sony highlighting user-submitted screenshots, something the PlayStation Blog does most weeks and has done for years.
The one piece of forward-looking information is the theme for next time: “Trees,” with submissions open until 11:59pm PT on 2 September 2026. Anyone wanting a shot at being featured needs to post their own tree-themed in-game screenshot with the usual hashtags before that cutoff.
So who does this actually matter to
Practically nobody needs to act on this. It’s not a security advisory, a system update or a game launch - it’s a curated gallery post. If you’re a PS5 or PS4 owner who enjoys Photo Mode and fancies a shot at appearing on Sony’s official blog, it’s worth knowing the deadline and hashtags. Everyone else can safely treat this as exactly what it is: a nice-looking scroll through other people’s screenshots, with zero implications for your wallet, your save data or your platform of choice.
Worth noting too that photo mode itself isn’t new or exclusive to these titles - most major PS5 releases now ship with some version of it, and Sony explicitly points curious readers toward “other great games featuring Photo Mode” if they want inspiration beyond this week’s picks.
The takeaway
This is community content, not news in the traditional sense - there’s no bug, no release, no price change and no catch to dig into. The six screenshots are genuinely a nice showcase of how varied PS5’s current library looks, from Soulslike ruins to painterly RPG landscapes, but there’s nothing here that changes what anyone owns, buys or needs to worry about. If you fancy joining in, grab a screenshot of a tree in your favourite game and post it with #PSshare #PSBlog before the start of September. If not, no action needed - this one’s purely for the scrapbook.
